The Best Crystals for Each Zodiac Sign - The Ultimate Guide | Style of Zen
Birthstones are traditionally used for luck, abundance, protection and wisdom. You may already know your birthstone, but not everyone agrees on which birthstone connects to which zodiac sign, and rather than there being one birthstone for each sign, there are several. This guide will help you to select the right crystals for your needs.
Traditionally, crystals were linked to specific signs because the energy of the stone resonated with that sign or with the month in which it fell, or because the planet that ruled the sign or month also governed the crystal. Such correspondences differ, though, because the links between stars and crystals were determined in the distant past by different sources.
Birthstones may come from Western or Eastern cosmology, from esoteric or exoteric traditions, however, the birthstones and companion crystals in the guide have been chosen on the basis of astrological association, compatibility, and the life-enhancing qualities the crystals offer. For some signs, two birthstones are listed. In these cases, the two crystals balance and harmonize each other, each offering a much needed quality. Here are the best crystals for each zodiac sign:
