Taurus Crystals: The 10 Best Healing Stones for Taurus

We’re all drawn to crystals for their beauty and their various healing properties, but did you know that your zodiac sign along with its corresponding planets, elements, and characteristics also play an important role in crystal healing? Crystal healing is using the properties of certain minerals and stones for the benefit of stabilizing the mental, physical and emotional states; incorporating healing crystals into your daily life and spiritual practices is always a great idea. The way we are affected by our zodiac sign and the characteristics that fall under it can tell us so much about the type of healing we require on a daily basis. Our strengths and weaknesses are impacted on many levels by different types of crystal stones and their properties. For every zodiac sign there are character flaws to address as well as high points to strengthen and in turn, a corresponding crystal. In this article we will discuss the best Taurus crystals and how people born under this zodiac sign can benefit from their energies. 

Taurus (April 20th – May 20th) 

Element: Earth (fixed)

Ruling Planet: Venus 

People born under this zodiac sign tend to be calm and level-headed for the most part, but their emotions can become sporadic in difficult situations. They enjoy their solitude and respect honesty in other people and relationships when they decide on having company. Ruled by the energies of Venus, these people are very much inclined to be hard-working, loving, and passionate and their Venusian influence makes them sensual creatures; this often exudes from their mannerisms and their persuasive abilities. Taurus takes pride in hard work as well as reaping the benefits, so they often treat themselves whenever possible. Although Taurus is open-minded when it comes to new ideas, they are mostly fixed in their decisions and are hard to sway, but this also makes them loyal, dedicated, and honest companions. They are generous and loving, while also being aggressive and passionate about their beliefs. For these reasons, crystals relating to the element of Earth as well as the planet of Venus are the best companions for bullheaded Taurus, reminding them to step back and take a moment to clear their thoughts whenever hot-headedness surfaces. Below is a list of the best Taurus crystals suited to people born under the zodiac sign and Taurus season in general, along with their healing properties.

Taurus Crystal Pairings 

Most healing crystals can be paired to combine their energies for various purposes. For example light can be combined with dark or two stones of a similar color, but be careful when pairing stones of the same energy as this can sometimes lead to drastically high or low emotional states. Below is a list of Taurus crystal pairings best suited to this energy and their areas of healing. 

Green Jade and Rose Quartz are both healing stones in matters of the heart. They unblock the heart chakra and promote love and luck on all levels, allowing Taurus to dive headfirst into their endeavours and come out winning. This combination provides the perfect balance of head and heart to stabilize Taurus’s rational and emotional energies. Pair these stones for Love Healing.   

Rose Quartz and Selenite pairing serve to amplify loving and cleansing energies. While rose quartz promotes universal love, selenite purifies energy and amplifies the properties of the other. Pair these stones for mental and emotional clarity as well as healing in all areas. 

Green Jade and Selenite is a combination for powerful harmonizing energies. Jade promotes peace and unity in all relationships, while selenite charges and purifies energy on all levels. With its amplifying properties, selenite boosts the healing energies of Jade, instilling tranquility in all areas of our life. This pair helps Taurus to overcome obstacles in friendships, relationships and family affairs while promoting serenity in the home.  

Rose Quartz and Black Obsidian is a protective and loving combination. Black obsidian’s ability to ground energy complements rose quartz’s properties of healing in matters of the heart. It provides calm and stability where it is lacking and keeps the heart chakra open and rooted in sensibility, so that Taurus is able to make clear-headed decisions without the interference of emotional chaos. Pair these two when you’re feeling impulsive or emotionally stagnant. 

Green Jade and Black Obsidian, with both stone’s protective and grounding energies makes this pair an optimal choice for balancing wisdom and perspective. Black obsidian has a low energetic vibration which complements jade’s ability to stabilize and soothe the mind. This pair brings peace and reassurance to Taurus’s busy mind. Combine these stones to banish negativity and bring good fortune in all aspects. 

Additionally, the Taurus crystals listed previously can also be paired with either Black Obsidian for added protective energy or with Selenite for amplified properties as well as added clarity. From April 20th to May 20th, the sun is in Taurus. This is called Taurus season and everyone is affected by its energy, regardless of their zodiac sign. It’s important to understand and address how Taurus’s energy impacts us so we can better adapt to this time and work to overcome the trials they bring. If you’re a Taurus, you’re more likely than most to feel these energies in a much more powerful way. Utilizing Taurus Crystals and their healing energy in meditation and other forms of spiritual therapy will assist in alleviating most if not all of the negative effects of this time as well as helping to improve your character in a more long-term sense. 

Cleansing and Charging your Taurus Crystals

Every person who has handled a crystal, has involuntarily made an energetic impression upon it, which will in turn be inevitably passed on to you. So even though some stones cleanse and charge themselves, and unless you’ve personally mined for them and they have  come directly from the earth, it’s important to cleanse and charge them yourself. One of the simpler ways to cleanse and charge your crystals is by giving them a bath in either regular water or moon water and then leaving the stones out in sunlight for anywhere between three hours to three days. Most healing crystals can also be paired with selenite to cleanse, charge and amplify their energies. You can even go a step further and repeat the process of cleansing in a water bath that’s been left under moonlight and then follow up with drying them in the sun. After each time you’ve cleansed your crystals, it’s also important to form a bond between yourself and the stones. Bonding with your crystals is quite simple. In the same way that healing stones lend energy, they also absorb it so in order to make a stone your own, simply hold in your hands, meditate with it and wear or carry it often. This imprints your energy on the stone, forming a bond that allows for smooth communication between the crystal and the wearer.
