This is a nice little book for someone who's just starting out with astrology and crystals. Each sign talks about a crystal associated with the sun, moon and rising placements of the zodiac. It tells you the element, stone, what to use it for, colour, chakra associated with, mantra and ritual. Then it gives you very brief insight into the personal planets mercury, venus and mars.

The book is very basic, it's a good start for someone with little to no knowledge, but seems to be lacking for those who have a wider knowledge base. i would have like to see more crystals associated with each sign and a bit more detail about each zodiac placement. It would have been nice also to add topics like finances and self-care.

I'd like to thank the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This book is super insightful. I have read several books on crystal and have even collected my own info and still learned so much from this book. I love the deeper insight it provided into both astrology and crystals. I learned more about additional astrological aspects and their corresponding crystals making it very personalized but still universal. It is very insightful and helpful.

As someone who enjoys crystals and the lure of crystals & astrology, I found this book to be very helpful and informative. I will recommend to several of my friends who have an interest in these things.

I really like that this book combined astrology and crystals. We are shown crystals to use for our sun, moon, and rising signs. I gound this book to be somewhat basic but still lovey. I eould recommend it to any crystal or astrology enthusiast.

I would like to thank Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy free of charge. This is my honest and unbiased opinion of it.

Crystal Zodiac is personalized gem work by zodiac sign for self-care. The author explains what astrology is and crystal basics. There are beautiful pictures and excellent explanations. absolutely love that the author stresses safety and explains that not all stones can be used in water. Even including that sage has been over-harvested which is oftentimes not included in stone books. There are so many ways to cleanse stones, I love that the author points out that maybe sage should be left for Natives to use in sacred rituals instead of smudging stones. The signs and the stones work well together and are a perfect match for the traits included in this book.

4 stars.

This is one of the easiest and most most comprehensible books on crystals I have read in a long time. Easy to understand and use. It has the knowledge needed for learning what crystals are used for certain sun signs. The astrological signs for crystal healing are all represented. This book is for the most experienced person and also for those who are new to this. I learned so much and would recommend it for anyone interested  in crystals.. I received this book from Net Galley and the publisher for a honest review.

It brings in a few crystals if wanting to bring in crystals with the zodiac or the other way around. Talks about the elements - as in relation to the signs, qualities, and a few other topics then into the zodiac signs and talks about them with at least three crystals per sign. A nice book overall.

By now we’ve proven crystals hold a magic power, but to what extent I don’t think we quite know yet. Pairing crystals with the zodiac signs is genius and something I never thought of. by harnessing the energy, who knows what vibrations and frequency you’ll emit!

This is the first book I've seen that melds crystal healing with astrology. Interestingly, I've recently been reading a book on Ayurvedic medicine and found precedent for this combination there. It starts off with some very basic information about astrology that would be useful to someone totally new to the subject, but already familiar to anyone who has read anything else about astrology.

This is followed by similarly basic information about crystals, but this veered into belief rather than practical instruction and I found it of little use. After a bit of woo, it got to the part I was looking for; segments on astrological placements and which stones would be useful for specific purposes.

It goes through each of the twelve signs, giving an overview followed by small segments about the significance of the Sun, Moon and Ascendant, assigning stones to each, then covers the "personal planets", Venus, Mercury and Mars. The book does not address the outer planets but explains how they are slow moving and tend to affect generations more than individuals.

It gives a few basic spells, mostly based on visualisation and covering basic things like love spells, communication and personal insight. While I found the information a bit light, I did see it as useful and would certainly recommend it to someone new to these subjects and of use to people wanting to expand work with crystals.

Love this approach to mindfulness, though, unsurprisingly, I didn't find the reason I don't get on with some stones.
And as long as you go in with the idea you're linking up mindfulness with the basics of crystals and astrology, this is a great book.
It's *not* going to change your life, not really. But it will give you some new tips, and I laughed in a couple of places at some of the descriptions.
A really good read, if you're looking for something to switch into your mindfulness routine and add to your toolbox. I'll be honest, the long-term practice of mindfulness and meditation can get 'samey', so, finding new things that I enjoy is cool.

I wish to thank Netgalley for the opportunity to read this ebook in return for an honest review.

Thank you to Netgalley and the Publisher for my digital copy in exchange for an honest review.

I requested this book because lately I have been thinking about looking into the whole crystal thing and I have never seen one that combined astrology WITH crystals. This book combines a lot of information into one handy little book with beautiful pictures. It goes on to explain the basics of crystals, chakras, and zodiac and how they are actually entertwined...it talks about how to interpret your own natal chart and which crystals would work best for your sun, moon, and rising sign... I actually really enjoyed learning about how certain crystals worked best for certain times and certain signs...and, for once, a book actually made me look into what my own moon sign and natal chart consisted of. I don't necessarily agree with what my moon sign says about me but oh well...The pictures of the crystals were amazing...and now I want to go to a gem show or something...I am much more interested in crystals after reading the book.

This book gives an interesting approach to combining astrology and crystals. It asserts that personal astrology gives us insight into our behaviors and patterns; while crystals then help to prompt us in acting on these insights by rooting our intentions in the physical world.

“The biggest benefit of using astrology and crystals in tandem is that they help you craft a more personalized approach to wellness, outlining mindfulness practices and self-care routines that are tailor made for you.”

This book then goes over the basics of astrology, what the 12 signs are, the elements, qualities, explains what a sun sign is, and covers the rest of the basics.

It also goes over crystal basics such as setting intentions with crystals, care & safety, storage, cleansing, charging, and use with the chakras. It finishes going more in-depth about your crystal zodiac. It explains how helpful the crystal zodiac is as it helps alleviate the headaches and second-guessing of what intentions and mindfulness practices to choose as it offers a clear guide for wellness practices and crystal healing based upon your personal astrology.

I found this an interesting, helpful, and different resource to add to my astrology, crystal, as well as mindfulness practice. Particularly because it offers the ability for me to choose my crystals and intentions easily by what is going on within my specific zodiac.

If you are looking to expand your practice or just need some help with direction, this book is definitely worth checking out.

Thanks to Netgalley, publisher and author for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I received an advance reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

This is a fantastic book for people starting out using crystals and the zodiac combined together. This book explains the basics and explains how to interpret your own natal chart, what each sign consists of, chakras, and what crystals are best to use and support you based on your astrological sign.
This is a beautifully put together book and will be very useful for learning about both astrology as well as crystals.

This was a great guide for both beginners and those that are already quite familiar with crystals and/or astrology. Clear writing, insightful, and an aesthetically pleasing book.

A cute "coffee table" book about astrology and crystals. It doesn't go into depth but it does cover a bit more than sun/moon signs.

I really enjoyed Crystal Zodiac but i was more flipping through to sections that apply to my specific zodiac sign. There were good suggestions on how to incorporate crystals specific to someone's sign. As well as knowing good crystals to gift friends and family for their sign.

This book was a nice find for me because I didn’t know much about zodiac and astrology, but did know more abt crystals so this was very VERY helpful and unique and full of great new info for me! I loved the writing and the beautiful way the book is presented.

Did I NEED another book on astrology or crystals? No. Did I hesitate when requesting this ARC from @netgalley ? Also, no 😏. Crystal Zodiac was intriguing because it combines astrology and crystals, which is something I never considered. In this book, readers learn how to interpret your natal chart, what a sun, moon, and rising sign is, and what crystals and mantras to support you based on your astrological sign. This was a fun read and a good beginner book for someone just getting into the basics of astrology or crystals. If you’re looking for a more in depth read on astrology or crystals, I’d suggest The Only Astrology Book You’ll Ever Need and The Crystal Bible.

Reading horoscopes are not my thing, but I love learning anything that can tell me more about my personality and areas I can improve. I know some people are turned off by astrology because they don’t feel connected to their sun sign. This was never an issue for me because I am a Virgo through and through, but I have found that learning about my sun, moon and rising signs provided a more comprehensive look into my personality, strengths and areas to improve.

This book was so informative! It’s perfect if you’re new to crystals or astrology and also has lots to keep the more experienced interested. There’s exercises at the end of each astrological sign to do such as mindfulness or self love rituals. The photos are beautiful too.

A good book with good information. Beautiful pictures of the crystals, the only downside being there's some problems with the digital version and some art.
