Lately I’ve been giving people metaphysical gifts. While I expect those who are into metaphysics and spirituality like me to appreciate them, I’ve been finding that other people — those who aren’t necessarily interested in tarot and messages — are also enjoying these gifts because there is a deep significance to them. This month is no different so today I set out to find a few gifts for some special Libras in my life.
I’m a strong proponent on finding gifts that have a special meaning. For example, a friend of mine was going through a rough spell in her career. She’d been to one job interview after another with no luck, and I bought her a piece of Aventurine. She didn’t know much about the crystal, but when I explained to her that it’s good for helping you through interviews and other aspects of the job-hunting process, she would carry that stone whenever she took action to move forward in her career. It wasn’t long after that that she got a job.
Some would say she would have gotten the job anyway. Perhaps she would have. But I noticed that her energy seemed to shift when she started to carry the crystal. She didn’t seem as stressed before interviews and she felt like something was working in her favor behind the scenes. Sometimes we simply need something to believe…
When it comes to my gift-selection process, some could say it’s selfish to get someone a gift that reflects you rather than them. I get that. But I also think it’s a testament to who I am and the unique person they chose to be friends with. They all know I live and breathe metaphysics and to be honest, many of them get excited by the rituals, messages and synchronicity that govern my lifestyle. I also put a lot of thought into what gifts represent what they are going through in life, so my gifts are truly personalized to how I perceive them to be energetically. You can even go into meditation and ask your Spirit Guides what item to gift someone. You may not agree with how I do it, but it works for me. So let’s get into my gifts for Libras…
Libras are drawn to beauty
If you want to impress a Libra, you’ve got to know what they value. Libras tend to like beautiful things. They are ruled by Venus, after all. So not only does it have to represent their personality, but it has to be pretty. Libras are also Air signs, meaning they are thinkers. My Libra friends are all intellectual, and they like to be mentally stimulated. For those celebrating a special occasion, such as a birthday, the desire to reflect and set intentions for a better tomorrow is often key. I spent a little time searching before I came up with these two items from one of my favorite online shopping places, Energy Muse.
Libra Horoscope Moon Incense Holder. I know my friend loves incense and she is very in tuned with the phases of the moon. The mango wood is complemented by the design of the scales. Now, every new and full moon, she can use this incense holder to enhance any ritual that she does. On new moons, she can pull it out when she wants to set intentions for the next moon cycle. On full moons she can use it when she is ready to release something from her life. I want to help her manifest all of her desires this year and I believe moon magick is one of the most powerful ways to do that.
Libra Horoscope Crystals Box Set. If you use crystals, you know that different days tend to require different energies. There are also likely certain crystals that you work with better than others. Certain crystals also have properties that align with the different signs. This crystal box set comes with six crystals that work will with the energetic properties of Libras. The set includes Pink Tourmaline, Blue Apatite, Lepidolite, Rose Quartz, Citrine and Green Quartz. I know it will be perfect for another friend who not only collects crystals because of their energetic properties but because they look gorgeous in her house. I also know this gift will help her to learn more about different crystals, which has been an interest of hers.
Of course non-Libra-related items can be good gifts for Libras, but if you really want a personalized memento, these may do the trick. At least they will do the trick for my gift-giving purposes.
