Best Crystals for the Seasons

 
When it comes to the best crystals for the seasons, I like to lean into my intuition and think about how each season makes me feel. Then, I connect that feeling with a crystal that evokes those same feelings.
 



 
Living in the Midwest, I’m always struck by the beauty of the changing seasons. It’s autumn now and I have found myself (more than once this week) admiring the colorful tree canopies and the scent of the Fall air. There are many things I love about living in Wisconsin, but the distinct change from one season to the next is definitely in my top five.
 

 
I do realize, however, that you may not experience traditional seasons where you live. But no matter where you reside, you can look for your own seasonal markers to track the change in annual cycles. For example, instead of Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter, you may have a sunny season and a rainy season. Or perhaps there are times of year when your local birds migrate, when certain plants come into bloom, or there are other changes or local celebrations that help you track the passage of time.

These natural rhythms aren’t just an external thing that we experience in the world around us…they’re also so important for helping us stay in tune with our internal cycles.
The seasonal changes bring subtle shifts to how we feel inside; they mimic our own need for growth, creativity, reflection, and rest. Crystals can help us get internally aligned with these external energies so we can get in sync with the world around us.

The following are some of the best crystals for the seasons and embracing these different seasonal energies:
 



 
Best Crystals for the Seasons - Spring:

Carnelian – With colors ranging from burnt orange to vivid sunset tangerine, Carnelian embodies the warmth that is beginning to return to the land at this time of year. Carnelian corresponds well here due to its fiery, transformational energy.
Red Pyrope Garnet – This rich, earthy stone supports us as we get more present in our bodies as we await the arrival of spring – stretching, awakening, and rejuvenating ourselves now in preparation for the return of the Sun. Garnet with its deep red color is related to healing and balancing the energy body.
Pyrite – This stone shines like the golden rays of the sun – bringing strength, motivation, and excitement for the season ahead! Pyrite, because of its high Iron content, energetically supports healing and grounding into Earth energy, making it one of the best crystals for the seasons of spring and summer.
Moss Agate – A crystal that has long been treasured for its resonance with the natural world, Moss Agate is an excellent crystal for spring. If you're like me and you get the springtime urge to reconnect with Earth and her inhabitants, Moss Agate is sure to help you connect to earth energy and harmonize with the awakening landscape.
