Acrystal is matter that forms an orderly three dimensional lattice. Because of the lattice structure, these crystals are particles that are vibrating in a seemingly empty space. In fact, many crystal workers believe that this empty space is filled with divine energy. It is interesting to note that most people can use the energy of the crystal as a powerful aid to increase their consciousness and move forward in life. Each person has a unique energy field. They can get maximum benefits from a crystal, if they find the ones that resonate with their own energy field. In my opinion, the simplest way to find a crystal that aligns with you is to find out your birthstone or power crystal based on your zodiac sign. Each zodiac sign is on its own unique journey of self discovery, a journey that can be expedited by the sagacious use of crystals.
According to Judy Hall, crystals “bring forth the innate potential of a sign, overcome its challenges and harmonise discordances.” Let’s start with the first sign of the zodiac, Aries. A power crystal for the dynamic Aries is Carnelian, which is a crystal of courage, vivacity, sexuality and self-confidence. It is a talisman for success in any money-making venture. It helps Arians achieve ambition, drive and determination. It also promotes confidence for stage or media performances and that is why it is one of the favourite crystals of singers and actors.
Rose Quartz is a power crystal for the conscientious Taurus and helps to enhance love and emotional healing. It also helps to raise your self-esteem, restore confidence and balance the emotions. Rose Quartz is one of the best crystals for positive self-affirmation. Tiger’s Eye is the power crystal for the eloquent Gemini. Representing courage, optimism and resolve, Tiger’s Eye is believed to enhance inner strength, and help the Gemini turn his or her ideas into reality.
