Harvest Stones


Once again the harvest season is here. It is a time for reaping what we've sewn. It is the evening to October's night. Energetically it is a time of high power, and much magic is in the air to be used for bringing good things to fruition. At times like this, specific stones may call to us and draw our attention. Those stones would be the sorts that respond best to this sort of active evening energy. For that reason, rather than focusing on one stone as is usually done here, many shall be spoken of which are best suited to making the most of a good harvest time.


This is a time when the earth calls to us. Moss agate is an earth and nature stone as is green fluorite. The energy of both can serve well to draw our attention to the earth and to ourselves in the ways we respond and connect to it. Working with such stones at this time, allows us to be fully in tune with inner and outer happenings.


The grounding yet expansive energy of clear quartz crystal is an asset to have around in this season. It grounds us during a time of busy activity so we remain focused and energized. It also opens us so we may expand to take in all the possibilities of the harvest time for our own benefit. It serves as well, to amplify our own abilities and assist us in feeling all the magic in the air.


Meteorites are useful friends to have about during the harvest time if you've plans to make use of the magic. Their other-worldly energies attune us to the near realms which are easily reached between now and Sow'in. This is because between the time of harvest and the time of Sow'in, the veil between the worlds grows ever more thin. This gives more access to all sorts of magic, and these wonderful stones help us to be open to receive it.


Jade and citrine are both lucky stones. If your plans over the past year were carefully laid for success, they are good ones to have around for the harvest. The yellow to orange color of citrine can also help to keep the aura in touch with the harvest time energy.

The magic of amber is also quite helpful during this time of year. Amber is very balancing, and during the changes of the seasons, balance is always good. Many things are shifting, so it is important to give ourselves balance while they're doing it.


Such seasonal shifts can leave us often feeling a bit unprotected when so many things are changing at such a rapid pace. Even though many of those changes can be good ones, they still often bring their own sorts of stress with them. In such moments, we can feel in need of protection. Because of its fitting seasonal color, tiger eye, like amber, can be a good friend. Its form of protection manifests itself in a gentle loving way which serves well to reassure and set the aura at ease.

Have a wonderful harvest, and happy stoning!
