Happy Pride! Pride Month is a time to celebrate love, diversity, and inclusivity. What better way to honor this vibrant occasion than by exploring the colorful world of crystals? Each hue of the rainbow carries its own unique energy and symbolism — and gemstones are no exception. Just as each crystal and color in the rainbow has its unique qualities, every individual brings their own special light to the world.
