Calling all crystal lovers!!
The end of April brings a two-week period when the Sun enters the zodiac sign of Taurus. Although it’s a funny book title, the book Astrology for Dummies by Rae Orion has an abundance of astrology knowledge and facts regarding each zodiac. According to Orion, Taurus traits are “steadfast, dependable, and willing to accept responsibility” (Page 68). As the Aries start the month of April, they bring their wild, fierce energy, but the Taurus follows with the energy to bring everyone back down to Earth and uses it to build something solid. Taurus are known to be very grounded, but also headstrong and stubborn. If you are born anytime between the dates of April 19th to May 20th and align with any of these traits, then congratulations, you definitely are a true Taurus!
For all the Taurus’ out there, a crystal that pairs extremely well with your balanced, earthly energy is Moss Agate. This stone, a quartz comprised of a variety of shades of blues, greens, and white/gray hues with various wavy or ‘earthlike’ patterns; Moss Agate is an incredible stone for maintaining grounded energy and keeping you balanced mentally.
Moss Agate is meant to remind you of the Earth and the way it is always spinning but is maintaining energy as it trudges forwards, despite not knowing when it will stop. Like this phenomenon, Taurus’ are willing to go above and beyond for the people they love and expect nothing in return – they also are diligent, productive, and always have an urge to do something constructive with themselves. As the Earth continues to spin, a Taurus will always put their best energy forward to keep themselves moving along. Pair this attitude with a Moss Agate crystal, and you may be able to harness that energy and use it to feel incredibly grounded and collected through whatever trials you may be facing.
Despite it being the perfect stone for a Taurus, Moss Agate is also the BEST crystal to have when you’re celebrating Earth Day, which is April 22nd, 2025! This crystal can have patterns that look just like the Earth, which are both beautiful and unique to each stone.
