A Guide to Moon Signs and Crystal Jewelry

A majority of people know their astrological sign based upon the traditional sun sign and the date they were born. While you may have gone your whole life following this sign, you may want to consider other astrological signs to follow like the moon sign.

More specific than just the day a person was born, a moon sign includes different attributes and crystals associated with each sign. Use our guide to learn how to find your moon sign, read deeper into the meaning of the moon sign, and find ways to use those crystals for unique jewelry pieces.

Moon Sign Definition
The moon sign is an astrological sign based upon the position of the moon on the day you were born. More details will indicate the exact moon sign, including the year you were born and the time zone you lived in at the time of your birth.

All of the moon signs have the same name as the astrological signs, including examples like Virgo, Aries, and Libra. To help define the moon sign, you would refer to your sign as "Moon in Libra" or "Moon in Cancer."

Free online tools help you find the moon sign so you do not have to guess or follow a chart. Simply put in your information, and you will know your moon sign.

Moon Sign Meanings
Moon signs help form a more complete astrological picture when compared with attributes from your traditional astrological sign. The two signs work hand in hand. For example, if you have the anxious tendencies found in the Cancer sign, yours may be balanced the calming nature of the moon sign you have.

The combination of the two signs allows you interpret how each sign applies to your personality, lifestyle, and emotional reaction to situations. With the insight from the moon sign, you can self-evaluate more on your inner feelings and use the information to make positive impacts on your life.

The moon signs also showcase compatibility markers with other signs and how to flourish in relationships with family and friends.

Moon Sign Crystals
While gem stones are often associated with sun-based astrological signs, moon signs have crystals associated with them. Crystals are often connected to the moon with various rituals, including the power to cleanse a crystal and give various crystals some healing power.

For example, if you have a moon in Cancer, then the black onyx crystal represents the sign. Other examples include the Chrysocolla for a Moon in Gemini and a Citrine crystal for Leo moon signs. The crystals include different colors and properties to help the designs stand out.

Moon Sign Jewelry
Along with the crystals, traditional gem stones associate with the signs, giving you a lot of options to design jewelry pieces based off your sign. For example, you could mix the ruby gemstone of Cancer with the black Onyx crystal of moon in Cancer to create a striking red and black ring or necklace design.

Work with professional jewelers to create unique combinations. A jewelry designer can supply you with completely original designs based on your moon sign. For necklaces, the crystals could act as a standalone pendent. With ring designs, you could surround a gemstone with the moon crystals.

When you find a connection with someone, you have the opportunity to create unique designs based off both of your moon signs. For example, a custom bracelet could feature a patterned mix of both moon crystals in a single design. You could choose to use moon crystals to create a custom engagement or anniversary ring for sentimental meaning.
