Crystal Skulls - Best of Coast to Coast AM - 9/10/26
Summary
Sarah Nash discusses her journey with crystal skulls, revealing that the "13 crystal skulls" prophecy was likely a modern marketing invention by New Age sellers to drive sales. She shares a personal dream that led her to meet Mayan priest Hun Batz, whose teachings deepened her interest despite the lack of archaeological evidence for the skulls' ancient origins. The conversation explores how modern myths can carry psychological truth, using the skull as a symbol of mortality and transformation, while noting that the specific legend of 13 skulls lacks credible historical documentation.
