Joshua Shapiro has been involved with the crystal skulls since 1983 when he saw one made out of amethyst in northern California (“Ami”). He felt such a strong connection with this artifact that since that time he has devoted his life and resources to sharing the best information he can about these crystalline artifacts with other people all over the world and the future role they will play to help our planet see world peace. He has had an opportunity to privately visit with a number of the well known crystal skulls in the world including: the “Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull of Love”, “ET”, the “British Museum Crystal Skull”, “Synergy” and “Ami” among others.

Since Katrina Head has entered in his life in the early spring of 2009, they have been working closely together. The Explorers offer various crystal skull presentations (lectures and workshops) to the public as well as a unique type of private consultation with their personal skulls that combines their individual spiritual and creative talents. In the picture shown here, we see Joshua holding the Brazilian carved crystal skull known as “Portal de Luz” (Portuguese for “Portal of Light”), who has traveled with him all over the world.

Joshua is the author of various books including his first book about the crystal skulls entitled “Mysteries of the Crystal Skulls Revealed”, written jointly with Sandra Bowen and the late, F. R. ‘Nick’ Nocerino. This book was published in 1989 and there is also a Portuguese edition issued in Brazil in 1993. He has released various versions of his new book, “Journeys of the Crystal Skull Explorers” since 2004 (as an e-book and printed edition in 3 foreign languages in Europe). Then in 2011, Joshua and his divine life partner Katrina released the first book in a new series called "Journeys of the Crystal Skull Explorers - The Travel Log series" with Travel Log #1, Mexico 2009 and then in late 2012 and early 2013, Travel Log #2 - Search for the Blue Skull in Peru.

Joshua is the co-founder of V J Enterprises (in Illinois, USA), which has been in operation since 1992, dedicated to sharing the best information that describes how our planet will be transformed into a “Golden Age” by the year 2013. Additionally, Joshua has offered a number of other public talks throughout the world that discuss current information about UFOs, the Bible Code and the Hollow Earth. He is actively involved with the non-profit organization: the World Mystery Research Center. This foundation is dedicated to studying various world mysteries which are believed to inherently contain vital encoded information necessary to create a peaceful world. He is the originator of a story for an action adventure film that portrays how world peace will happen by the end of 2012 waiting to be made (the script is completed).

(Update: since 2014, Joshua has begun to work with other talented individuals to create two new books, his first novels. One story is based on the script developed for a film known as "Crystal Skull Chronicles" and the second novel is a new story about a paranormal investigator who gets invited to visit alternative realities within inner dimensions and comes back to tell about it. A New Membership service is now being offered (started in early 2016 via this website) to give others a chance to read these stories before the published novels are released hopefully later in 2016 ... see the menu above entitled -- CSE Special Membership.)

Special Notice: There are a series of crystal skull articles that Joshua wrote for his column ("Tales of a Crystal Skull Explorer) that he gave to The Otherside Press in 2015 which you may want to take a look at them.
