The pandemic has brought a plethora of energy healing crystals into our lives, bringing good vibes to our skincare routines and self-care practices. Whether it’s boosting your moisturizer or invoking your inner goddess, crystals are lurking in our daily lives, especially those that resonate with your astrological sign. With so many bright, sparkly tumbles out there, it’s hard to choose one to fuel your life.
So we asked Akashic reader and crystal guide Artie Carlo to share the perfect crystals for your zodiac sign. “Each zodiac sign is born under the influence of a planet and is ruled by its energies. Crystals balance these energies and promote growth,” she explains, adding that while each person’s chart is unique, the following general suggestions are valid for each sign overall:
While it may be tempting to sleep with a pile of rocks by your bedside, there are easier ways to harness the energy of crystals: wear them as jewelry, place them under or by your pillow, meditate with them, or whatever works best for you.
Aries
Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, is ruled by the planet Mars, which is full of energy, but is further enhanced by a confidence booster: crystals. “You could choose tiger’s eye, which helps you focus, or citrine, which brings positive energy,” says Carlo. Place the stone on your desk or meditate with it to turn your lofty visions into reality.
Taurus
Venus natives live for luxury and pleasure. “What better stone to bring balance than the emerald? This beautiful stone brings harmony to the mind, body and soul, and dispels unwanted energies,” says Carlo. Emeralds are the perfect exquisite piece of jewelry for Earth sign individuals.
Gemini
“Lepidolite calms this air sign’s tendency to overthink, so after a day of decisions and socializing, place some under your pillow for a good night’s sleep!” she says. A lilac-grey, dull rose color, lepidolite is a crown chakra stone that brings harmony to the body and mind, dispels worries, and invites joy.
cancer
While Cancerians keep their emotions bottled up deep inside, this water sign needs to process them. Moonstones aid in self-healing, while pearls help calm raging seas. “They’re great to wear as jewelry, meditate with, or keep by your bedside; they also help heighten your intuition,” says Carlo.
Leo
Fierce and fiery on the outside, yet kind at heart, Leo is a sociable fire sign who loves to be in the spotlight. With its orange, red and gold glow, sunstone is sure to lift Leos’ spirits. “This stone fosters a positive outlook and helps Leos achieve their dreams. Keep it as a talisman or wear it on a bracelet,” she says. It’s most effective when worn during the day.
Virgo
Carnelian stimulates creative inspiration and enhances the energy of the anxious earth sign Virgo. “Carnelian helps you see things outside the box, making your day more inspiring and stress-relieving.” Wear it every day and happiness will flow to you.
Libra
Rose quartz brings balance to the romantic air sign Libra, “helping to cultivate love and intimacy for those seeking a deeper connection with themselves and others.” Place this pale pink love-exuding crystal in your bedroom to surround yourself with peace and tranquility.
Scorpion
A stone of royalty, lapis lazuli helps this passionate water sign build a strong connection with their intuition and speak their truth. “Lapis lazuli helps you understand yourself on a deeper level and brings protection, vitality, and abundance. Place it on your third eye to connect with your inner wisdom,” she says.
Sagittarius
Adventurous Sagittarius is never one to stay in one place. Fire signs can benefit from sky-blue turquoise. “Turquoise brings clarity and stimulates the imagination, and can be worn as jewelry around the neck,” she says. The stone will help Sagittarius speak the pure truth.
Capricorn
One of the most loyal and hardworking of the zodiac, Capricorn keeps their emotional well-being firmly inside. Dark green malachite can help release burdens and transform your heart space. “It encourages adventure and helps release the past,” says Carlo. Lie down, place malachite over your heart, and breathe deeply.
Aquarius
Clever, quirky, and optimistic, Aquarius are fun-loving at heart, and red garnets will keep them grounded while igniting their passions. “Garnets promote physical vitality, and while air signs can be isolating, garnets can help foster friendships,” she says. Meditate with this stone or keep it on your altar.
Pisces
This dreamy, intuitive water sign is perfect for aquamarine, a stone that supports deep emotions. It brings joy and harmony to relationships and allows for open conversations. She recommends meditating with the crystal to enhance your intuition.
