Libra: September 23rd - October 22nd Opal is formed by the evaporation of water from silicic acid gel. The water remaining in the matrix refracts light, giving it a multitude of iridescent colours. In Indian mythology it represents the Goddess of rainbows. In crystal healing it is thought to enhance both the senses and emotions, making us more receptive, open to communication and love, and to encourage spontaneity. Physically it is thought to generally enhance health by its spirit-lifting influence. |
