Wearing Stones According to the Five Elements

Wearing Stones According to the Five Elements

The Harmony Between Nature, the Zodiac, and the Soul

In Chinese tradition, everything in the universe is governed by the Five Fundamental Elements:
Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water.
These cosmic forces rule the seasons, emotions, organs, and even the destiny of each human being.

Each person is born under the vibration of a dominant element according to their Chinese zodiac sign, determining their energetic nature and their relationship with other elements.

To harmonize internal cycles: each crystal vibrates with the natural frequency of Qi, rebalancing organs and emotions.
To strengthen zodiacal affinity: your element and sign form a unique vibrational signature.
To activate personal luck: in Feng Shui and Bazi, wearing the right stone at the right time enhances destiny cycles.
To create a natural energy shield: minerals absorb, transmute, and radiate subtle vibrations based on their crystalline structure.

MESSAGE FROM ARUNA CHY

“A stone is not a jewel, it’s an ally.
When worn with awareness, it becomes a bridge between Heaven and Earth —
a mirror of your elemental essence.
Every Chinese sign carries its own key vibration; the stone is that key.”
