A special ritual to commemorate a person or couple reaching a milestone in their lives is to celebrate with gratitude all the blessing they have in their life especially their friends and family. Everyone in the birthday celebration could dedicate a special flower or crystal of significance or a small paper scroll into a keepsake ceremonial jar and say or write what they are grateful for in their lives or how the birthday person or wedding anniversary couple has affected their lives.

Albert Schweitzer: At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.

Marcel Proust: Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

Crystals have long been associated with the different signs of the zodiac. It's generally beneficial to wear crystals to which your star sign is related - commonly known as your birthstone. All the signs of the zodiac have more than one birthstone. Shown below are the two most commonly known crystals linked to each sign of the zodiac.
