I took out the blue skull, held it in my hand, and gazed at it. I tried to quiet my mind, but kept wondering if it had any power. I had just read a book called Paranormal, by Raymond Moody and in it he has a chapter about the power of crystal gazing. (Was it the gazing or the crystal that had the power?) After a minute, I put it back in the box. Nothing had happened that I could tell.
I turned to my e-mail and opened one from our e-book editor, who asked about cover art for my novel, Crystal Skull. Hm, intereesting, I thought. I’d sent a copy of the out-of-print novel weeks ago and I didn’t know he was ready to move ahead with it.
After answering his query, telling him I would look for photos I noticed that I had a Facebook message from JoAnn Parks, someone I hadn’t heard from for months. JoAnn happens to own Max, a life-sized crystal skull that she inherited from a Tibetan healer in Houston. She worked for him for years, but he had never mentioned the skull to her. JoAnn readily agreed to have her granddaughter take a couple photos of Max and e-mail them to us.
To top off the series of synchros, JoAnn had come to my Facebook page to comment on a photo of a shaved llama (or alpaca), a photo that I’d snatched from David Wilson’s Facebook page. David is the editor who had asked about the Crystal Skull cover!
All that happened within minutes of gazing at the blue skull. So, well, maybe there is some power there.
Great synchros. Maybe the skull does have a power, or is it the power of the mind?
love this story! i’ve always been so fascinated by the crystal skulls – totally fascinated!
A synchro….night before last I was watching Indy and The Crystal Skull on XFinity.
It’s one of my Indy favorites, especially the end. (#1 fav is Raiders!) My little clear crystal skull lives inside my working Pyramid that I use for energizing ‘things’.
Wow, lots of synchronicity. The story about Joanne Park’s skull sounds interesting too.
