Hello Lovelies,
Last month we talked about Aries and Diamond. This month we will be discussing Taurus and it's crystal Emerald.
Taurus is from April 20 – May 20.
Taurus is s dependable but stubborn person. They are very gentle and care deeply for the people in their lives. However, once they make up their mind about something they become like an immovable force. As an earth sign we would except nothing less than their bull headed determination.
Speaking of which, the constellation Taurus is Latin for ‘bull'. The zodiac is seen in three major myths. Two of which are extremely similar in story telling. The first is set in Greece with the God Zeus. He transforms into a great white bull to abduct the Phoenician princes. In Roman mythology it's Jupiter who transforms into a bull to kidnap the maiden Europa. The final myth is from the early Hebrews, they considered Taurus their first zodiac in the star constellation calendar. Thus naming it the first letter in their alphabet , Aleph.
Emerald is paired with the zodiac Taurus due to it’s association with honesty and love, characteristics typically assigned to a Taurus. Not only will the crystal offer patience, growth, and prosperity. Emerald also reminds a Taurus to grow past their stubbornness, even if they believe themselves to be correct.
Not only does Emerald help the zodiac grow and then in turn encourage the people in their life to do the same, it protects Taurus from any negative energies that surround them. Especially since they are known to be great listeners, therefore opening themselves up to people who would take their kindness for granted.
Next month we will be discussing the zodiac sign Gemini and the crystal Rainbow Moonstone.
