Every planet and star sign has corresponding crystals that share their energetic resonance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just as the big planetary “rocks” in the heavens are an astrological macrocosm of our lives, the rocks below us in the earth are a microcosm of our experience. As above, so below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does astrology work with crystals?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Consciously working with crystals and gemstones that correlate with the energy of each astrological season can benefit the mind, body and spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We teamed with the spiritually savvy, dynamic Gemini, Chartreuse ChiChi Tembo, founder and headMIZtress of The Venus Academy<\/a>, for our Crystals Horoscopes by zodiac sign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each of her Crystals Horoscopes serve up tips on how to use crystals and gemstones for each of the 12 astrological seasons. Working with these gemstones, we can stay aligned and in tune with the energy of both the heavens and the Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do I learn about crystals?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It helps to know a little about crystals, a “Crystals 101” if you will. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crystals form when liquid magma from the earth’s core moves toward the surface, cools down to solidify, then crystallizes over millions of years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every planet<\/a> and star sign<\/a> has corresponding crystals that share their energetic resonance. Think of it this way: The planets are massive, heavenly rocks that influence the energy fields on Earth, while crystals are massive, inner-earth rocks that can also influence our bodies here on the Earth\u2019s surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words, just as the big planetary rocks in the heavens are an astrological macrocosm of our lives, the rocks below us in the earth are a microcosm of our experience. Consciously working with crystals and gemstones that correlate with the energy of each astrological season can benefit the mind, body and spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is astrology connected to crystals?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As crystals form within the earth, rocks and minerals are in a constant process of transformation: creation, change and dissolution. The zodiac reflects this process from the spark of the birth of Aries (the first sign of the zodiac), the growth through the signs, and the completion and undoing in Pisces (the twelfth sign).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just as new habits take about a month to become ingrained, working with a crystal for several weeks helps your body to integrate the new vibration in conjunction with the stone. Working with the 28-day moon cycles<\/a> is ideal, especially for women. Or you could start working with a new stone at the beginning of the month, or the start of a zodiac season\u2014or of course, whenever it feels intuitively right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you cleanse and charge crystals?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Crystals are largely comprised of silicon dioxide (SiO2), which is the material used in watches for timekeeping, and silicon computer memory chips for storing large quantities of information. Thus, crystals are inherently programmable, and you can set your intentions for what you would like to work through with your stone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before working with any crystal, it’s a good practice to smudge (or energetically cleanse ) the stone by passing it through the smoke of a purifying type of incense such as white sage, Palo Santo, or frankincense and myrrh. Just as white sage is used to bless and clear a new home, smudging crystals neutralize any previous energetic imprints in the stone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
