When the Roma people, known as gypsies, migrated to Europe from India, they saw a great opportunity. Europeans were already familiar with the crystal ball being used to divine the future thanks to the Druids.

The gypsies donned exotic turbans, scarves, and jewels and used crystal balls as their source of income. Because crystal balls are easy to travel with, the gypsies used them to set up a fortune-telling stands on the go. 

Can crystal balls tell the future?

While the crystal ball does not tell the future itself, it does open up the mind of the healer to see beyond the physical world. Like the pendulum, the crystal is a tool to help the Seer connect with their Higher Self and Spirit Guides, which is where all the answers lie. 

How do you use black crystal balls?

Although a clear crystal ball is the most popularly recognized in the mainstream, the black crystal ball is just as powerful. For example, the surface of Black Obsidian is reflective like a mirror and helps to relax your mind. Gazing into the dark stone puts you into a hypnotic state, allowing you to access the metaphysical realm. 

Use black crystal balls for gazing, divination, and meditation. These spheres are also popular protection stones, vital energy when opening your aura to the spiritual world.

HI Jordi! We do not sell Tarot decks nor do we plan to sell them. You may find several unique options by searching on Etsy.
Best wishes!

Jordi P. - January 6, 2023

I’m reaching out to you because I came across you website the other day and wondered if you sell Tarot decks.

Colleen - January 24, 2022

Hello! I’m happy to have found your site. 😃

I read online in several places that jade was good for the Wolf full moon in January that we just experienced. I’m wondering aside from amethyst if there’s a good crystal for the Snow new moon in February? I’m a February baby so have lots of amethyst.

How to clean and charge a new crystal ball

Sheila Satin - November 4, 2020

Hi Shenial, thank you for your email. We do not carry large Quartz crystal balls at the moment. We hope to resume in the future, but at the moment we are concentrating on boosting up our spheres that are 4 inches or less for mailing and portability sake.

If you are looking for a unique gazing experience, I recommend the Quartz Tourmaline 6 inches we have here: https://satincrystals.com/products/quartz-tourmaline-sphere-giant-protection-gem-black-white-crystal-ball

Sincerely,
Sheila Satin
