Crystal healing, which is the use of stones and crystals to enhance well-being, is one of the most popular disciplines currently. More and more people are using stones in their homes or wearing them as jewelry. If you also believe in the power of rocks and crystals, here are the best stones for your zodiac sign.
If you are passionate about astrology, you probably already know that each zodiac sign is associated with a color that symbolizes the main personality traits and energies of those born under that sign.
The simplest way to combine Astrology and lithotherapy is therefore to choose stones based on their color, so that it corresponds to your sign.
Furthermore, since lithotherapy attributes different virtues to stones, such as reducing stress, improving sleep or enhancing creativity for example, you can also choose stones and crystals that correspond to the main personality traits of your sign.
Finally, all lithotherapy specialists will tell you that you should let your intuition guide you when choosing your stones.
First, find out about the stones that correspond to your astrological sign by reading our little guide below, but then, to refine your choice, rely on your own feelings!
As the color of Aries is red, carnelian and garnet are commonly associated with this astrological sign.
These two stones also have the virtue of boosting the courage and energy of this particularly dynamic and determined sign.
However, if you want to soften the hot-tempered and impulsive side specific to Aries natives, you can also offer them the following stones:
• howlite, which calms impatience and aggressiveness
• blue chalcedony, which soothes anger
• rose quartz, which reduces jealousy
• amethyst, which brings serenity.
The color associated with the Taurus sign is green. That is why in lithotherapy, two stones with this shade are attributed to natives of this sign: kambaba jasper and unakite.
Furthermore, the bull's eye is perfectly indicated to strengthen the qualities of this tenacious, driven, and determined sign.
However, to attenuate certain flaws of Taurus natives, especially their tendency towards jealousy and resentment, two pink-colored stones are recommended: rose quartz and rhodochrosite.
Since the color of Gemini is gray, it is generally associated with the gray-blue chalcedony.
This stone facilitates communication, but it is not the only one that can enhance the qualities of Gemini natives.
To stimulate their intelligence and curiosity, individuals born under this sign can also use lapis lazuli and turquoise.
As a very adaptable and whimsical sign, Gemini individuals tend to scatter their energy. To help them focus on a goal, one can use tiger eye or sodalite.
The color associated with the Cancer sign is white. That is why one of the stones traditionally associated with this zodiac sign is the Moonstone, which has a pearly white color.
Since individuals born under this sign are particularly sensitive, emotional, and sometimes resentful, several stones can strengthen their sense of security and dispel their worries.
This is notably the case with Labradorite, which has protective virtues, soothing Rose Quartz, and Rhodochrosite, which helps to forget resentment.
Furthermore, blue stones such as Chalcedony and Apatite can assist Cancer natives in expressing themselves and making their opinions heard.
As the color of the Leo sign is yellow, the sunstone, amber, and citrine are often associated with this astrological sign.
These stones in shades of yellow-orange enhance the self-confidence, vitality, and natural generosity of Lions.
To mitigate some of the negative aspects of Lions, lithotherapy recommends rose quartz, which facilitates smooth communication, and amethyst, which soothes their authoritative and hot-tempered side.
The color associated with the astrological sign of Virgo is blue. That is why one of the stones associated with this sign is aquamarine, which helps the natives of this sign to express themselves more freely.
To help the natives of Virgo be less shy or indecisive, lithotherapy recommends carnelian.
Howlite will help them make thoughtful decisions, as they tend to analyze and weigh the pros and cons before committing.
Another beneficial stone for them is rose opal, as it softens the perfectionist and uncompromising nature of the natives of this sign.
The color of the Libra sign is sky blue. However, lithotherapy associates a blue-green stone with this zodiac sign: amazonite.
Worn as a lucky charm, amazonite will bring tenderness and happiness to Libra natives.
Since harmonious relationships are very important for people born under this sign, they are also recommended to use rose quartz and jade.
To balance out the indecisive and hesitant nature of this sign, several stones can be used in lithotherapy: tiger's eye and smoky quartz help make the right decisions, while carnelian and sunstone strengthen self-confidence.
The color of the Scorpio sign is black. It is therefore not surprising to find obsidian among the stones associated with this astrological sign. Obsidian has the virtue of increasing lucidity.
Very sensitive, natives of this sign can be prone to negative thoughts and can be uncompromising, stubborn, and jealous.
To help Scorpios free themselves from their negative thoughts, one can use the virtues of stones such as carnelian, rhodochrosite, amethyst, and Moonstone.
If you are specifically looking for a protective stone that corresponds to your sign, know that labradorite and black tourmaline will protect you from negative energies.
The color of Sagittarius is purple, a color symbolizing spirituality and elevation of the mind.
One of the stones associated with this sign is amethyst, which, in addition to its color, has the advantage of calming the stress and anxieties that natives of this sign are particularly sensitive to.
Other stones in shades of blue such as chalcedony, lapis lazuli, and apatite enhance the communication abilities of Sagittarius natives as they promote sincerity, friendly relationships, and listening skills.
The color associated with the sign of Capricorn is brown, a color that corresponds well to the earthy character of individuals born under this sign.
Smoky quartz is perfectly suited to enhance the qualities of Capricorn, especially their sense of responsibility.
Other crystals such as Sunstone and Obsidian will help individuals of this sign reduce their stress and fear of failure.
Citrine will boost their self-confidence, while rose quartz will help them express their emotions.
The color associated with the sign of Aquarius is midnight blue. This deep shade of blue can be found in lapis lazuli and fluorite, two stones that stimulate the intelligence and creativity of those born under this sign.
Furthermore, as Aquarius individuals are emotional, impulsive, and sometimes hypersensitive, lithotherapy recommends tiger eye and sodalite to boost their self-confidence, and howlite to calm their worries.
The color of the Pisces zodiac sign is turquoise.
They are therefore attributed with the stone of the same name, as well as other blue-colored minerals such as aquamarine and lapis lazuli.
To protect themselves from negative energies to which Pisces are particularly sensitive, lithotherapy recommends Labradorite and Tiger's Eye.
Furthermore, Amethyst will help them better control their emotions while Moonstone will assist in developing their intuition.
