Astrology and the Zodiac
“The sign of the zodiac with which the stone is associated. There are so many opinions from so many gemologists, authors, astrologers, metaphysicians, and others providing their take on the assignment of the zodiac sign for each gemstone. The astrological signs and some of the vibrational matching gemstones are listed here below. The information shared here is based on more than three decades of study with many different teachers. To determine the association, I look at the way the mineral grows, the color associations, chakra qualities, and the geometrics of the stone and how it relates to the qualities.
Keep in mind that you have more than one astrological influence in your natal chart. You are so much more than just your Sun sign. The placement of the planets in the houses and the zodiac signs all come together to create your blueprint of unlimited potential. It’s how you use the energies that is up to you.”
