Pisces: Amber

This stunning crystal is often associated with the Goddess Jurate - who is thought to have lived in a castle made entirely of Amber. Heartbroken when her father - enraged that she'd fallen in love with a mortal - destroyed her castle (killing her lover in the process), her tears are thought to have combined with the broken pieces of her castle, forming what we know now as Amber. As such, it suggests you may find yourself mourning the loss of how things used to be with someone you love this week.
