crystals and tarot

Hey there crystal lovers! 👋

If you love Tarot cards and crystals, did you know that there is a connection between these two? Tarot cards represent significant life events or milestones and offer insights and guidance on a wide range of topics, from love and relationships to career and life purpose.

Crystals, on the other hand, are natural formations of minerals that have been used for their healing properties for thousands of years. When placed on or around the body, crystals help balance the energy centers or chakras. Together, Tarot and crystals work to enhance each other's energy and focus during a reading.

To use Tarot and crystals together, you can choose a crystal that resonates with you and your goals. Some popular choices include amethyst for spiritual growth and intuition, rose quartz for love and relationships, and citrine for abundance and prosperity. It is important to note that associations between Tarot cards and crystals can vary depending on the practitioner or source. Therefore, choose a crystal that feels right to you and resonates with your goals and intentions. Once you have your crystal, you can place it on top of your Tarot cards during a reading, or carry it with you throughout the day to help enhance its energy.
