Want a powerhouse combination to balance your spiritual energy? Then you need to learn how to combine natural healing crystals with astrology!
Every sign corresponds to different crystals, which can negate shadow traits and enhance positive aspects.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Aries is a strong, energetic fire sign. You need an equally powerful and fiery crystal to pair with it. Carnelian is a bright red-orange stone that boosts confidence and slays self-doubt. Citrine, a bold yellow gem, is good for staying focused on your goals. And blood-red garnet is a high-energy stone that compliments Aries love of physical challenges.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Never forget that Taurus is an earth sign with a deep connection to nature. Sure, Taurus is strong, but it is also gentle. We love petrified wood for Taurus because of its warm earth tones and roots–no pun intended–in nature. Other positive crystals for Taurus include peridot, a spring-green gemstone linked to intuition and courage, and confident carnelian.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Gemini is multi-faceted and contains hidden depths–just like labradorite. This crystal flashes with blue, green, and even purple fire. It’s an inspiring stone that pairs well with Gemini’s changeable nature. But staying grounded is vital for Gemini, so consider using jade as well to balance your energy.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
It makes sense that Cancer would be drawn to watery, mystical moonstone and abalone shell. These crystals tap into a deep well of peace and intuition that can be hard for wary Cancer to access. To stay connected to the earth–and to other people–Cancer also benefits from carrying a piece of red jasper.
Leo (July 23-August 22)
Leos gonna Leo. The fiery, flashy sign thrives on attention, so they’re naturally drawn to glittering pyrite. However, Leos who need a little more balance and wisdom in their lives–not to mention protection from their own drama queen tendencies–can try using tiger’s eye.
Virgo (August 23-September 22)
As an earth sign, Virgos are drawn to shades of green. Moss agate is an excellent stone for bringing calm, quiet energy to your life. Peridot is also a good choice for Virgo. Cleansing kyanite can help with Virgo’s anxious tendencies.
Libra (September 23-October 22)
Libras are all about balance. So how can they use healing energy crystals to balance their lives? We really like deep blue lapis lazuli for Libras. It enhances wisdom, helping you see the truth in any dilemma. If Libra starts to feel overwhelmed, the calming powers of pink tourmaline can help.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
Scorpio is a volatile sign, prone to anger and jealousy. Stock up on malachite, a deep green stone that can help turn negative feelings into more positive energy. Scorpios can also benefit from sunny citrine, which can help focus those bold ideas into a plan of action.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
I see you, Sagittarius! You might be trying to run away when you get bored, whether it’s with a relationship or a job. Rubies can help maintain passion in those situations. But if you can’t resist an adventure, tuck a piece of protective, confident tiger’s eye in your pocket.
Capricorn (December 22-January 19)
Capricorns are hard-working and dedicated, but they need support even if they don’t ask for it. Garnet, which is Capricorn’s birthstone, can help. So can tiger’s eye. Honestly, tiger’s eye is a great all-purpose stone! If your energy feels blocked or misdirected, try using cleansing peridot.
Aquarius (January 20-February 18)
Aquarius is the sign of dreamers and innovators, but that means sometimes they end up disconnected from reality. Amethyst–in addition to being a beautiful purple crystal–brings harmony to the mind and opens up the crown chakra, letting all those brilliant ideas bloom.
Pisces (February 19-March 20)
Pisces is the ultimate water sign. They’re drawn to the soothing energy of aquamarine, which can help protect Pisces’ gentle spirit. Amethyst is also good for Pisces, since it helps clarify muddled thoughts and quiets busy brains.
