Stones & Astrology

One can create an individual pouch of stones to carry that reflects one’s astrological birth sign or one to carry a group of stones reflecting the houses contained within an astrological chart.    The purpose for these separate exercises would be to gain a deeper connection to the influences of both the stones, zodiac signs and astrological houses.

Getting Started

Step #1

Minerals

Before selecting your stones decide if you want  your stones to reflect an astrology chart or your zodiac sign.  Keep it simple and choose only a few types of stones.  Experiencing a few stones at a time will heighten  somatic learning and integration.  This will help you remember their names, characteristics and  energies.


Step #2

Create or choose a special pouch that will hold your stones.  If you are choosing stones for your zodiac sign consider the colour of the pouch.  Deepen the connection by choosing the colours of your sign!   If you are choosing a pouch for a an astrological chart choose one that you will enjoy for years to come!

 

If you are beginning with the cosmos here is a simple guide of Planetary Crystals and Stones reflecting the houses making up the astrological chart.

If you are beginning with a personal pouch of  stones reflecting your own astrological sign here is a simple guide of  Zodiac Crystals and Stones.


 

Step #3

Bowl, Salt, Wood, Wellness

The third step is to clean your stones and set an intention for them.  You can use sea salt in water to clean you stones.  As you hold your stones in your hand to rinse them in fresh water set an intention or purpose for how you hope to work with these stones.

  • Intention for personal sign ….

Your personal intention for your astrological sign may be a wish to learn more about the nature and effects of the minerals and cosmos, or to ask for healing support and increase  your vitality!  It depends upon your current focus of attention and experience.  It may be you need understanding or protection!,

  •  Intention for astrological chart……..

The individual stone of each house can be a conduit to exploring each section of the astrological chart.  An intention for the stones you use to create an  astrological chart can be to become a conduit for deepening  connection and clarity. A somatic experience of the energies associated with the astrological chart and minerals used throughout  history can support a broader perspective and deepen ones connection inside and out!

Below is a guide to choose one stone to reflect a personal Zodiac sign or twelve stones to reflect each sign.  Read more on  Crystals and Astrology.

Choosing a stone is a personal experience and can be a way to tap into one’s intuition. Start by keeping it simple.  If you are choosing your stones from the following guide follow these easy steps.

Simple Steps to Choosing Stones for your Zodiac Sign

1.  Glance first at the sign you are considering and trace it with your eyes.

2.  Without hesitation glance at the three stones pausing only for a moment before moving to the next one.  Which one captures you immediately.  You may be drawn to it with your eyes or through a feeling.  The feeling may simply be an inner softening experience.

3.  Once you have sensed a stone then read the qualities.  Remember that by letting your gut pick the stone it may be what you need at this time and that you can benefit from this stone now.  Remember life changes and you can change your stones as your experiences shift!

Last step optional:

4.   Find something special to carry your Astrology stones or keep in a special place!
