Top 3 Crystals for Cancer Season:

Angelite: This stone supports you as you call upon your angels and guides to ask for protection of your home and family this season. Angelite can help you tap into your intuition and emotions simultaneously, allowing you to gather information from your feelings to inform your intuitive insight. This also allows you to pick up on how others are feeling so you can better support them, creating more balance and harmony in the home.
