Capricorn women often have charm and the ability to find an approach to people, but it can be difficult for them to make friends and acquaintances due to Capricorn’s tendency to solitude.

What does the mineral enhance?
Gems are able to accumulate energy; if worn as talismans, they share it and increase a person’s vitality. This property of stones allows them to be used for medicinal purposes in the treatment of various diseases. In addition, minerals influence the character of their owner, enhancing already existing qualities and inclinations. Therefore, when choosing a talisman, you should pay attention to the personal characteristics of the person, so as not to enhance the qualities that the owner of the talisman already possesses in abundance.
Amulet stones for Capricorn according to the horoscope
According to astrologers, the following precious and semi-precious stones are suitable as amulets for people classified as Capricorns by date of birth:
- Almandine
- Zircon
- Opal
- Ruby
- Diamond
Almandine
Almandine is a variety of garnet of red and purple colors; it can rightfully be considered the main amulet stone for Capricorn according to the horoscope. Also pay attention to other red garnets: pyrope and rhodolite. Their shades can be different, with a pinkish or orangeish tint. It should be noted that garnet is a wonderful natural stone for a Capricorn woman based on her date of birth.
Astrologers say that almandine enhances all the strengths and advantages of the representatives of the sign, helps to achieve harmony, energy balance, and wisely distribute one’s forces between plans and tasks. The stone seems to nourish its owner, energize it, and reveal its inherent potential. By choosing almandine for daily wear, you will feel confidence, increased self-esteem, and it is likely that abilities that you did not suspect about will awaken, for example, eloquence, the gift of persuasion. And a confident person attracts people; he has more strength and potential to realize himself.
Opal
Another Capricorn talisman stone that helps to realize self-realization and reveal individuality is noble opal. This amazing stone with an unusual optical effect is ideal to make a statement. Remember that you are unique, inimitable. Your choice is your destiny.
This stone is not suitable for daily wear in jewelry due to its medium hardness. However, it is advisable to wear it from time to time. Opal is suitable for creative people, but even if you are the owner of the most pragmatic and far from imaginative profession, you also sometimes need to take your eyes off the ground, from vanity and material things, and look at the sky.
Zircon
For Capricorn, zircon as a talisman can be the golden key that opens the doors to life. Natural jewelry zircon makes its owner persistent, persistent in achieving goals and unbending under the blows of fate. Zircon enhances the intuition inherent in nature. Of course, we should not forget about common sense and rationality, however, a person makes many life decisions relying only on intuition, the dictates of an inner voice that speaks only the truth. Among all the colors of zircons, astrologers advise paying attention to the hyacinth variety, in red, pink, and orange shades. It is believed that hyacinth is a stone specifically for the Capricorn zodiac sign, for men and women. It helps you become more patient and eliminates doubts about choosing your life path. In addition, zircon - hyacinth is an excellent assistant in decision making.
Ruby
If you need a truly powerful talisman for Capricorn that would work to improve all areas of life, such as family, relationships, love, professional achievements, take a closer look at the ruby. The ruby stone for Capricorn is a real wand - a lifesaver, a strong magical assistant. From a gemological point of view, ruby is a red and pink-red variety of the mineral corundum, the most valuable and expensive colored stone. It symbolizes power and authoritarianism. In relationships, ruby can be associated with spiritual and physical possession. This is the stone of victors and kings; it is not for nothing that rulers wore it in crowns and regalia. Ruby is not recommended to be combined with other gems except diamond. To some extent, they are similar in energy and do not compete with each other.
A ruby brings prosperity to its owner, wealth, and promises career advancement and increased social status.
general information
Capricorns have many strengths: iron will and self-discipline, an indomitable desire for success, powerful internal energy, healthy careerism and excellent health. Due to their natural restraint, they may not particularly demonstrate a desire for leadership and certainly will not shout about it at all corners. However, purposeful Capricorn methodically removes all obstacles on the intended path, regardless of the costs.
These positive traits easily become exaggerated, turning from advantages into disadvantages. Purposefulness can be transformed into complete egoism, well-developed intuition into suspicion, thoroughness into extreme perfectionism and outright tediousness.
Talismans and amulets for Capricorn help not to go to extremes and avoid problems in relationships with people. They relieve internal tension and prevent them from falling into a depressive state, to which Capricorns are prone due to the “excellent student syndrome,” that is, total demands on themselves and others.
Favorable for Capricorns:
- Numbers. The numbers 3, 5, 7, 8 will bring good luck to Capricorns.
- Days of the week. Tuesday, Saturday (but on Monday and Thursday it’s better not to start important things at all).
- Colors. Since we are talking about the children of the Earth, they are favored by the entire natural terracotta range: from sandy yellow to black, the color of fertile black soil. Scarlet, orange, turquoise, mint are not bad.
- Metals. Lead is recommended for short-term wear: it helps to achieve the goal, but accentuates Capricorn’s character traits to the point of exaggeration. For daily wear, it is better to choose a talisman made of cupronickel (an alloy of copper and nickel).
- Stones . Agate, garnet, carnelian, rock crystal, onyx, serpentine, malachite, jade, obsidan, turquoise - the list of minerals favorable to Capricorn is quite impressive. This is not surprising: stones are born in the Earth and have the corresponding energy.
Despite the obvious disposition of Mother Earth towards her children, there are stones that are categorically unsuitable for Capricorns. These are sapphire, aventurine, amethyst and lapis lazuli.
Capricorn talismans by date of birth (by decade)
If you follow the wishes of astrologers, you should pay attention to the exact time and date of birth. Depending on which planet patronized the Capricorn sign in a particular period, three decades are conventionally distinguished:
- First ten days: December 22 - January 2
- Second ten days: January 3 – January 13
- Third ten days: January 14 - January 20
Interestingly, people born in these decades may differ in character due to the influence of planets on their lives. Also, certain talisman stones may be effective for them, since they are compatible with one or another luminary (or not).
The first decade of the sign Capricorn is under the influence of the planet Jupiter. These are strong-willed, serious, powerful people with an inner core. Often they do not act openly, preferring an indirect, indirect influence on the situation, which is nevertheless very effective. They make decisions easily, but are often let down by high expectations. They don’t lack self-confidence; Capricorns of the first ten days seem to emanate strength and calm. Their main weapons are facts and common sense.
Such Jupiterian Capricorns, in addition to the above-mentioned stones, are recommended to wear jewelry with topaz or chrysoberyl of any color variety. That is, you can choose blue, orange or yellow topaz. As for the chrysoberyl mineral, it has three main types: alexandrite, gemstone yellow-green chrysoberyl and cat's eye (cymophane). If you choose alexandrite, remember that you need to wear paired jewelry with it, that is, you must have two stones on at the same time, either in one piece or in different ones. Also pay attention to the moonstone, for Capricorn it is considered a harmonizing talisman, it also protects and protects.
The second decade of Capricorn is the child of Venus. Capricorns of the second decade are born leaders and leaders. Sometimes they lack the communication skills to build teamwork within a team. They know exactly what they want and very persistently pursue it despite any obstacles. However, if their desire has changed or disappeared, Capricorns may fall into apathy and despondency. Alexandrite, zircon, and ruby will help get rid of spleen and frustration and set Capricorns in an optimistic mood. Since Venus is the patroness of the arts and ethics, Capricorns in the second decade by date of birth often have extraordinary talents in artistic disciplines, so take a closer look at tourmalines, especially red rubellites. They bring with them the energy of creativity and inspiration.
The third decade of Capricorn is patronized by the Sun. This is a strong star who demands a lot from his players. Capricorns of the third decade, as a rule, live a busy life, they have many projects in their work, they make friends easily, and can get involved in various sports and active hobbies. However, they simply may not have enough energy to do all these things. Therefore, astrologers advise choosing strong talismans that can support the internal reserves of Capricorns. In addition to the traditional garnet, ruby and opal, spinel and diamond can help them. Let's make a special mention about diamond - it is a strong stone in itself. It can act as a talisman against enemies and the evil eye. It is also an effective amulet; a diamond attracts good luck, luck, and a happy coincidence. It helps to find the right people and provides energy replenishment, which is sometimes so lacking for Capricorns of the third decade by date of birth.

Undesirable stones for Capricorn according to the horoscope
Some precious and semi-precious stones, according to astrologers, can weaken the energy of Capricorns or negatively affect certain character traits. For example, jewelry varieties of the mineral beryl (emerald, aquamarine, heliodor) will only strengthen Capricorns’ innate tendency to solitude. It is also not recommended for this sign to wear jewelry with mother-of-pearl. It is worth giving up white pearls if you want to maintain family happiness and love in marriage. Sapphire is a wonderful gemstone, however, according to esotericists, Capricorns should not wear it all the time; instead, pay attention to another type of the corundum mineral - red or pink ruby. Also limit your exposure to citrine. The yellow variety of the quartz mineral is not at all suitable for Capricorns. Peridots can have both positive and negative effects, depending on the person who wears them. Moonstone is also not the best stone option for Capricorn; some astrologers consider it completely undesirable, since it is a talisman of the opposite zodiac sign - Cancer, although it is recommended for the first decade by date of birth.
Recommendations from astrologers are only recommendations, and in no case a direct guide to action. They point to the general experience of centuries, but your particular case may be the exception to the rule. Therefore, trust your inner voice. How do you feel when you pick up a stone? Rely on your intuition; it, like a magic compass, will unmistakably point to your personal talisman, which will be compatible with you and will bring you harmony and good luck.
It is believed that the higher the purity of the stone (purity means the absence of inclusions, cracks and other internal defects), the more effective the stone is. Some are of the opinion that large defects can even cause harm, so they do not advise wearing stones with cracks. Another wish from astrologers is contact between a person and a stone. It is understood that a framed talisman is not enough to simply be worn as a decoration. It is necessary that the stone directly touches the skin (body) of its owner, or at least from time to time you need to touch the stone while wearing it, stroke it, and thank it. It is also generally accepted that a stone given from the heart, with the brightest and kindest wishes, will become a better talisman than one bought for oneself, in which case it will gain strength for quite a long time.
