Taurus is a fixed earth sign with Venus as it's astrological ruling planet.
Mantra for Taurus is 'I Have'
Venus which is the planetary ruler of Taurus is associated with beauty, wealth and sensuality.
My three crystal picks for taping into Taurus energy are crystals that will help you tap into luck, abundance, wealth and love.
- Rhodochrosite
- Aventurine
- Emerald
The Crystals
Rhodochrosite
| Minerals | Manganese carbonate |
| Crystal system | Hexagonal |
| Sources | Argentina, China, Japan, Peru, South Africa, USA |
| Hardness | 3.5-4 |
| Chakra | Heart |

Pink Rhodochrosite has vibrates with the energy of love. It imbues you with vitality and energy needed to begin new ventures.
Known as the Stone of the compassionate heart, rhodochrosite symbolises selfless love, moving one beyond mere empathy but stirring one to action on others’ behalf.
The energies of rhodochrosite will give you the determination and willpower to work on your dreams and achieve success in your endeavours.
It will also help you manifest your desires and intentions sooner rather than later. Rhodochrosite will bring prosperity and abundance to those who are determined and willing to put in the work.
For me, rhodochrosite is a stone that infuses me with compassion and an overflowing of love. Whenever I use this stone I attract unconditional compassion and love from others as well as a grounded urge to give compassion and love to others.
I chose rhodochrosite because of its capacity to open your heart to unconditional love and compassion.
Green Aventurine
| Minerals | Quartz and Fuchite |
| Crystal System | Hexagonal |

| Hardness | 6.5-7 |
| Chakra | Heart |

Green Aventurine is known as a stone of luck, with an energy that helps you to attract prosperity and abundance. As they are heart chakra stones they also help to strengthen love relationships.
Known as the “Stone of Opportunity,” Aventurine is thought to be the luckiest of all crystals, especially in manifesting prosperity and wealth.
Green Aventurine carries a strong connection to Earth
For me, aventurine is a fantastic stone for attracting luck and prosperity whenever I wear this stone I happen to attract lucky situations from finding a pound coin to someone buying me a beautiful lunch!
I chose Aventurine because of its propensity to attract luck and and prosperity as well as it's ability to open up the heart centre.
Taurus is ruled by Venus and Venus is all about love and money so this would be an excellent crystal to tap into those Venusian/taurus attributes.
Emerald
| Minerals | Beryl |
| Crystal System | Hexagonal |
| Sources | Africa, Brazil, Russia |
| Hardness | 7.5-8 |
| Chakra | Heart |
| Element | Earth |
| Colours | Green |
| Vibes | Energising |
Emerald stones embody a powerful heart chakra based energy.They are known as a stone of successful and abundant love, infinite patience and manifestation of wealth. They are powerful for increasing the level of abundance, prosperity in your life.
This stone will help you to resonate with divine love.Feelings such as compassion, hope, loyalty, encouragement, reassurance, gentleness, kindness, goodness and of course unconditional love, are connected with these emotions, and with all the blessings that are in your life. A stone of inspiration and infinite patience, it embodies unity, compassion and unconditional love.
Emerald is one of the stones I chose because similarly to Aventurine, it attracts abundance and prosperity as well as love.
These are my choice of crystals for beautiful Venusian, abundant loving Taurus energy. It was a little difficult to choose because I couldn't decide on two stones for abundance and one for love or vice versa. But my other choice of stone for love would be too obvious and very common and I feel that stone may need a spotlight of its own.
Can you guess which one I'm referring to? (clue: It's a popular variety of quartz)
Hope you enjoyed reading and that you get to sample some of these stones yourself!
with love and light xoxo Elizabeth
