WATER SIGNS

The Fool, The Hanged Man, King of Wands

So, are you feeling ready for a massive new adventure? Hope so because this New Moon brings renewing and inspiring energy and opportunities to start over. Take them!

The Hanged Man shows you've felt frustrated recently, it's been tiring even though little has really progressed or moved. It's hard to get ~stuck~, it takes it out of you. Overthinking no doubt... 

The King of Wands and The Fool combine forces to bring a massive surge of positivity and opportunity into your vicinity. Be ready and willing to say 'yes' to whatever is on offer, and turn the page in any area of life that feels like it's run its course or gotten stagnant. Go to different places, try a new activity, see fresh faces, start a new project or role, apply for something, activate an idea.

Your crystal prescription: Aventurine

Green Aventurine is a stone full of positive energy that perfectly matches the optimism and enthusiasm of The Fool. This crystal attracts prosperity, enhances creativity and stimulates perception, which is needed if you’re beginning a new project or starting out on a new path. When you need a lucky charm Green Aventurine’s magnetic energy will be sure to bring you good fortune and opportunity in abundance!

FIRE SIGNS

King of Coins, Justice, Queen of Cups

It's time to level up and align your head and your heart- the King of Coins and his shrewd, worldly outlook needs to agree with and serve the emotive and intuitive Queen of Cups.

Know your dreams, believe in them, and then let your practical side take over and manifest them in real life.

Justice shows this is about being balanced between imagination and action, between thought and deed, between desire and doing. And that this is also about doing the ~right thing~, for yourself and others. Doing good feels good to you, because you're an innately empathetic and compassionate person. you feel others' pain. you could never step over another to get what you want. Align and balance and act.

Your crystal prescription: Sapphire

This beautiful blue precious stone can help you feel more compassionate and empathetic and encourage you to take the higher ground, see the bigger picture, and help you to do the right thing not just for yourself but for the greater good. Ancient Greeks often wore Sapphire rings when consulting with oracles as they were believed to be a connection to the spirit world, so if you need a little guidance, this is a great stone to have beside you.

EARTH SIGNS

Page of Cups, Five of Wands, The Hermit

Someone (it could be you... just sayin') has, with the Page of Cups, been immature at worst, naive at best. This attitude towards a situation which required wisdom and maturity has created a squall with the feisty Five of Wands because either you, or someone close to you, didn't get the response they needed, this has turned into a choppy episode, a row, or a tense stand off. What to do?

Withdraw.
The Hermit asks you to step away from the drama, even if you created it, and let the whole thing simmer down. It's all about nothing really, and when the dust has settled everyone will be in a calmer place to actually say why they feel as they do and resolve it. The distance gives you a chance to think too, and recalibrate.

Your crystal prescription: Blue Chalcedony

Blue Chalcedony is a stone of calm, serenity, and peace. Like a cool, soothing ocean view it relives stress and promotes inner peace and self-care. A particularly good stone for inducing a good night’s sleep, which it sounds like you might need if you've been waist deep in drama! Close the door on the outside world, for a while and retreat.

AIR SIGNS

Five of Cups, The World, Queen of Coins

No regrets now, and no looking backwards because the Five of Cups shows it's time to turn your gaze ahead and create something new.

The World is a powerful final card about ultimate achievement, a heartfelt ambition coming into view. The end of one phase so that a new one can begin. Feel the ebb and flow, actively end what's fading ready to seize what's growing. Travel, location change or international opportunities can also be in scope with this card.

The Queen of Coins shows this new phase is about taking ownership for your health, wealth, home, and work. Doing what's right for you and leading the way, making it happen, being active vs passive. Put yourself first and know, in your heart, what you want life to be like... and head in its direction!

Your crystal prescription: Gold

I know Gold is a metal and not a crystal (though it is mined from deep in the Earth) it is all about manifestation! A symbol of wealth and prosperity ever since humans first discovered it, Gold holds a mesmerising energy that immediately casts you under its spell making you feel empowered and bold. If it's time for you to take ownership and steer your own ship in a new direction, gold can help you take charge.
