Must you solely use crystals in your zodiac signal? Do it’s important to comply with astrology guidelines to work with crystals? On this article, I clear up any confusion and share my crystal therapeutic perspective on astrology and crystals…
Frequent Questions About Crystals & Zodiac Indicators
One of many questions I’m typically requested is whether or not somebody ought to solely use crystals related to their zodiac signal or astrological start chart. Often, folks will even keep away from sure stones as a result of they’ve been informed the crystal belongs to an indication or planet that’s “incompatible” with them or that it’s going to trigger unhealthy luck.
I’m seeing this rather a lot on my YouTube channel, so let’s speak about it, clear up any confusion and let me make clear my perspective on this for everybody.
Completely different Astrological Gemstone Traditions
There are completely different traditions and techniques in terms of astrology, crystals and gems. These are the primary ones you need to be conscious of:
- Vedic Gem Astrology
- Western Astrology Correspondences
- Conventional Birthstones
Some traditions, notably Vedic gem astrology, have very particular guidelines about which gems ought to or shouldn’t be worn relying in your start chart. However different techniques are far more versatile.
My Method To Crystal Therapeutic
I don’t follow or train Vedic gem astrology (AKA Indian Astrology). I’m not an astrologer, although I do use some astrology in my life and books, primarily based on Western Astrological sources. I follow and train fashionable crystal therapeutic.
If you’re aware of my work, you will notice that I typically select and advocate crystals primarily based on their energetic properties and meanings. I imagine how you’re feeling in regards to the crystal and your expertise are extra essential and decide any compatibility points, identical to meals, skincare, or herbs, for instance.
In Crystal therapeutic, crystals are chosen by:
- Properties
- Intention
- Instinct
Though astrology may very well be used, it isn’t required on this system. Only a few of essentially the most well-respected authors and academics within the crystal therapeutic world even point out astrological associations because of this. Once they do, it isn’t a strict rule for crystal compatibility.
Why Selecting Crystals By Astrology Can Be Limiting
With respect to these of you who do comply with astrological gem techniques, it isn’t for everybody. For those who’re exploring crystal therapeutic, this could make issues restrictive and difficult. I see numerous worry round utilizing the ‘flawed’ stone. My solely concern is that you simply is likely to be avoiding probably useful crystals.
Discovering astrologically appropriate alternate options should be time-consuming. Add to this that not all sources agree on planetary or zodiacal correspondences. You’ll have to decide a system and follow it, however even then, many crystals now in the marketplace haven’t any historic astrological associations…
Crystals & Zodiac Signal Parts?
There are completely different techniques for ingredient associations with crystals, with many fashionable crystal healers not even working with the weather. My crystal ingredient associations are intuitive and extra colour-based. I really feel many crystals are a mix of components, too. I’ve heard folks say issues like “water indicators shouldn’t work with fireplace ingredient crystals“.
I don’t actually see it like that. Generally the vitality we want most is the one which balances our pure tendencies. In fashionable Western astrology, there’s a little chart that seems in your astrological start chart (Natal Chart). It’s generally known as the ‘Component Weight Chart‘, the place the planets and essential points seem in a field primarily based on the ingredient of the zodiac signal they had been in at start (see diagram above).
Astrologers get a greater image of your dominant ingredient or weaknesses right here (reasonably than solely your Solar signal). The best chart ought to have planets in all 4 components. An absence of 1 isn’t to be prevented, it wants engaged on. Crystals may very well be useful for this, however not for those who’re avoiding crystals primarily based on their components…
Astrology Doesn’t Want To Be Restrictive
In my free book, Uncover Your Guardian Stone I used astrology, drawing partly on the European custom for planetary associations. It was my very own system, however not how I usually choose crystals on a day-to-day foundation or in my books or movies. Somebody as soon as wrote me an e mail refusing to work together with her Guardian Stone as a result of “It’s not my start stone!“. It’s such a disgrace that individuals are lacking out on so many crystals due to these beliefs.
To me, planet and zodiac signal associations and even start stones are about resonance. You completely can carry or put on a stone primarily based in your zodiac signal. Nevertheless, I don’t see this as different indicators are in battle and we should keep away from crystals in keeping with astrology.
That is simply my perspective and the way in which I work. Chances are you’ll comply with a convention that has these guidelines however crystal therapeutic doesn’t use this technique as a rule for crystal choice.
My Closing Word
“For me, a crystal’s usefulness isn’t restricted to at least one zodiac signal or planet. When choosing stones, focus in your intention, use what resonates and at all times belief your expertise.”
