One simple way to connect with the energy of the moon is to work with a stone that’s connected with lunar energy. Tap into celestial rhythms with my Top 11 Crystals for Making Magic with the Moon! The moon, being our nearest celestial body, has such a deep impact on us. Connecting with its energy can help you live in alignment and flow with nature. One simple way to connect with the energy of the moon is to work with a stone that’s connected with lunar energy. Below are my 11 favorite crystals for making magic with the moon. 11 Best Moon Crystals: Selenite - Named for the ancient Greek Moon Goddess, Selene (who was called Luna in ancient Rome), this stone has long been connected with lunar energy. Moonstone - Historically, in Vedic mythology, Moonstone was said to be “made of solidified moonbeams” and was said to have been embedded into the forehead of the god, Ganesh, who is connected with the Moon. The ancient Greeks and Romans also believed that this stone was formed from the light of the Moon. Any variety will do, but peach, rainbow, and black are a few of my favorites. Clear Quartz - The bright light that shines through this stone is reminiscent of the reflection of the sun’s rays off of the moon’s surface in the night sky - a perfect crystal companion for any type of magical moon-workings. Pearl - Though made by sea creatures and not through geologic processes, Pearls have long been connected with the Moon and are traditionally associated with Monday (“Moon’s Day”) as their special day of the week (if you don’t have a Pearl to work with, Mother of Pearl makes a great substitute). Pearl is also associated with the ancient Roman Moon goddess, Luna. Lapis Lazuli - also known as the “Stone of Heaven” because it resembles the night sky with a field of stars. Blue Kyanite - This one is purely a personal correspondence and not rooted in history, but the long, slender blades of Blue Kyanite have always reminded me of the sharp arrows carried by Diana or Artemis (ancient Roman and Greek Moon goddesses, respectively). I love working with this stone when looking for some meaning or guidance from Mama Moon. Aquamarine - Agrippa wrote that Aquamarine is connected with the Moon, possibly due to its connection with the water element. The Moon is also often connected with Water, emotions, and intuition, so these make a great energetic pairing. Amethyst - People have been using Amethyst to connect with intuition and psychic skills since the time of the ancient Romans. Since the Moon is also associated with intuition, it naturally pairs with Amethyst crystals for any type of psychic work. Labradorite - Labradorite is a mystical stone that gets its brilliant flash from reflected light, similar to how the moon is illuminated by reflected light from the sun. The energy of Labradorite and the energy of the Moon are like kindred spirits. Work with them together to enhance any Moon rituals...
