SAGITTARIUS ENERGY + CHARACTERISTICS

Sagittarius is a mutable fire sign, ruled by the planet Jupiter and represented by the symbol of the centaur or archer. This sign is known as a free spirit with a love for life, independence, and adventure. Others might feel a bit of chaos in the way that Sagittarius approaches things. They can be unfiltered, fiery, and passionate but also grow bored easily and move on quickly. 


Likely to be the life of any party, Sagittarius is friendly, spontaneous, and full of optimism. Sagittarius is also known for seeking the truth in any situation, defending what they believe to be true, and speaking their mind rather directly or bluntly. 


Here are a few stones that can help you manifest the energy of Sagittarius for yourself before the season ends on December 21.

WHAT ARE THE BEST CRYSTALS FOR SAGITTARIUS?

Tanzanite Ring - Crystal for Sagittarius

TANZANITE: A SAGITTARIUS BIRTHSTONE

KEY PROPERTIES

Healing, Intuition, Compassion

CHARACTERISTICS + HISTORY OF TANZANITE

This brilliant blue or blue-violet crystal first found in 1967 is rarer than a diamond. Tanzanite is only found in an area of approximately 3 square miles at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro. Scientists believe it is highly unlikely that they will ever be found elsewhere due to the extraordinary geological circumstances that led to their formation. A Trichroic crystal, Tanzanite can appear as any of three colors depending on the angle from which it is viewed.


Tanzanite is one of the birthstones for December along with Turquoise and Blue Topaz. It came onto the market with the help of Tiffany & Co. who promoted it heavily after it was first unearthed, recognizing its potential for popularity.

HOW TO USE TANZANITE

Tanzanite is believed to both transform and energize those who work with it. This might be due to the fact that this stone has the ability to stimulate multiple chakras including the Heart, Throat, Third Eye, and Crown. For those looking to embrace Sagittarius’ ability to say what is on their mind, Tanzanite can aid in speaking your heart’s truth with ease and eloquence.

KEY PROPERTIES

Truth, Peace, Wisdom

CHARACTERISTICS + HISTORY OF LAPIS LAZULI

Thought to be the stone of royalty not only for its use by the ancient Egyptian pharaohs, Middle Eastern royalty, and European nobility but because Lapis Lazuli is believed to bring out the inner "king" or "queen" in all of us by connecting us with our higher consciousness.

It's been used as ornaments and decoration, powdered for medicine and eye makeup, and even thought to cure various illnesses.

While Sagittarius energy encourages you to seek and speak what you believe to be true, it lacks any filter leading to overly direct delivery of your thoughts. Lapis Lazuli can energize and balance the throat chakra to encourage self-awareness allowing you to clarify your messages, and overcome issues with communication, or any obstacles with connections in relationships.

COPPER: HEALING ENERGIES FOR SAGITTARIUS

KEY PROPERTIES

Stimulate, Healing, Balance

CHARACTERISTICS + HISTORY OF COPPER

Belonging to the same family of metals as Gold and Silver, Copper has long been considered a valuable resource used to signify wealth, heal physical ailments, and advance technology. Because Copper is known to be a great conductor of heat and energy, it is said to also be a conductor of energy in spiritual practices. It is also used to support your body's natural healing, including stimulating blood flow and alleviating joint pain.


Because copper is a soft metal and easy to extract from other minerals, it was used to make domestic items, spearheads, and other weapons. There is evidence of early copper use in China, the Andes, Central America, and West Africa dating back as far as four thousand years ago.

HOW TO USE COPPER

While Copper is a metal and not a crystal, it is said to possess high healing vibrations. Because of this Copper is great for all zodiac signs and works well in conjunction with several crystals. For Sagittarians specifically, Copper is important for grounding and tuning into the root chakra when they are looking for some more permanence in their lives.


Copper can be worn or carried to help boost your energy, help you find balance, and bring about healing energy. It is thought to aid in balancing and opening the lower chakras as well.

CHARACTERISTICS + HISTORY OF Citrine

Citrine derives its name from the French word ‘citron,’ meaning ‘lemon,’ a nod to its yellow coloring. This crystal, a variety of Quartz, has a long history. Records indicate it was used in Greecian dating practices as early as 300 B.C. It was also sought after by the ancient Romans and Egyptians for use in jewelry and as talismans.

It is the perfect stone to work with if you are looking to match the optimism and joy that Sagittarius often radiates.
