The Hermetic quote “As above, so below” could not be more accurate when combining planets and crystals; two incredible modalities that I personally have been working with for over 20 years. Both of them are magic on their own, but combined they can create mastery over tapping into your natal chart through the use and practical application of crystals in your everyday life.
Applying crystals to the natal chart can help to support you to remedy planets and access parts of the chart you’ve not been able to tune into. They can activate the positive features in your chart, as well as overcoming the difficult ones.
Earth and star magic seem to go hand in hand, like wine and cheese or bread and butter. We are literally made up of stardust and minerals. Just look at the reflection of the Earth in our own physical body; the tree stump like our fingerprint, our lungs shaped like the Tree of Life, not to mention our eyes, which literally look like galaxies. It is quite incredible, isn’t it?
The crystalline frequency within us makes a direct correlation to the stars and planets above us and the crystals deep below us in the Earth, which can anchor us into Star Magic and Star Lores. Combining stars and stones gives us an incredible tool for self-discovery and healing, and even has the ability to remedy planets that might be a bit uncomfortable in your natal chart.
I want to share with you crystals that connect with each sign from a different perspective. I’ve got to know the planets intimately in my experience as an astrologer, so some of my suggestions for each sign might be different to what you’d read in mainstream crystal guidelines.
Through the practice of astrology and working with The Liquid Crystals (geometric vibrational remedies), I’ve had the opportunity to develop a system that helps to bring about a well-balanced expression of the 12 signs, which everyone has in their chart. You might have a feature of a sign that you’d like to enhance or a feature you might like to tame or harness in a more effective way. For most people, there is an element (fire, earth, air and water) that is dominant or lacking. There are crystals that can support that imbalance.
There are thousands of crystals and no right or wrong crystal, tune into yourself and, after these simple yet powerful suggestions, you may connect to the power of crystals that will aid you to activate your divine blueprint (your natal chart) and begin to breathe new life into it.
As you read the crystal suggestions for your sun sign, also check your rising sign and moon sign, as this can be a delightful little trinity of crystals to work with.
When I say “work with” the crystals, this can mean a myriad of things from meditating with them or sleeping with them to taking The Liquid Crystals (through a qualified practitioner only) or wearing them. You can even make specific crystal grids for a particular intention, such as manifesting, clarity, healing or letting go. The list is endless. Trust yourself and have fun!
