Varieties, colors and shades of pomegranate
The garnet mineral comes in many types, colors and shades of specimens with varied brilliance and transparency.
Why garnet is red or orange is determined by the concentration of iron and magnesium ions. The green color gives the stone an admixture of chromium, while the yellow tint is due to titanium compounds. Almandine is the most common and hardest variety of garnet (7.5 Mohs). The formula contains iron and aluminum. Colors: red or red-violet, up to black.
Hessonite - (from the Latin gooseberry) a precious variety of grossular, a calcium-aluminum garnet of golden-honey color with yellow, orange and red hues.
Grossular is a calcium-aluminum garnet. Most often golden yellow in color. The shades are very diverse: from colorless or yellowish to brown, both green and pink specimens are found.
Tsavorite is a rare bright green variety of grossular with vanadium, found in the Tsavo region of Tanzania.
Leucogranate or white garnet, a colorless variant of grossular.
Uvarovite is mined and used in the form of stone brushes from small sparkling green crystals up to 3 mm. Calcium-chromium green garnet.
Andradite is a grant containing calcium and iron. There is black, yellow-brown, green-yellow, gray and red mineral. Suitable for collectors in the form of crystals, intergrowths and druses.
Demantoid is the name given to the green transparent precious variety of the previous mineral. Rare and expensive, sparkles even better than a diamond - endowed with diamond shine.
Melanite is a black mineral with calcium, iron and titanium. Semi-precious jewelry stone.
Shorlomite is a titanium garnet, previously also considered a type of andradite, but is recognized as a mineral of a separate group. The color is black, so it is often confused with the previous one.
Pyrope is a dark red, “ruby”, magnesium-aluminum garnet. Transparent specimens are considered precious stones, while the rest are used in technology as an abrasive material.
Spessartine is a rare jewelery orange garnet with rich shades. Faceted crystals of small sizes (1-4 carats) are inlaid into jewelry.
Rhodonite is a purple “garnet”. There is erroneous information on the Internet that rhodonite is a type of purple garnet. In fact, this mineral is a chain silicate, a manganese compound. Used for wall coverings and crafts. And the confusion arises due to the consonance with the next stone.
Rhodolite - the name of pink garnet - is intermediate between pyrope and almandine; gemologists do not like this term, because... the word is similar to the name of the previous mineral and occurs. It is considered the most feminine garnet stone.
Chameleon garnet is the name given to stones with pleochroism, the alexandrite effect - the ability to change color at different angles or when lighting changes from natural to artificial. Thus, alexandrite garnet indoors has, for example, a purple tint, but under the rays of the sun it becomes blue, blue. The chameleon mineral can change color from red to greenish, as in the photo below.
Artificial garnet: how to distinguish a fake
Due to the value of garnet, its artificial analogues - garnetites - have been synthesized since the 30s.
There are no silicas in garnetites, but there are rare earth metals that are uncharacteristic for them. Such crystals grow quickly: up to a kilogram per day. During the Soviet era, the Fedorovsky Research Institute of Mineral Raw Materials even learned to produce dark blue crystals. However, high-quality artificial garnet stones are a rarity, comparable in properties to diamonds. Their cost is prohibitively high due to expensive raw materials: zirconium, europium, etc.
Cheap glass counterfeits can be easily distinguished by several criteria:
- Low hardness and scratch resistance compared to natural stone.
- Bright glass or diamond shine and the play of light of a real stone against the fading of glass.
- A natural sample necessarily contains inclusions that are visible under a magnifying glass.
- Garnet is a mineral with weak magnetism, which can be detected in laboratory conditions.
Scorpio healing stones
Scorpio is naturally prone to migraines and headaches.
Turquoise and garnet (but not emerald) prevent their appearance.

Amethyst is good for health - it will regulate and calm the nervous system. The effect of black tourmaline is similar. Turquoise relieves insomnia, helps with sore throats and pulmonary diseases.
Artificial pomegranate
This stone was used in the manufacture of various industrial parts - from abrasives to laser emitters, so it has been synthesized since the first half of the 20th century. Artificial garnet is not a fake in the full sense of the word, since it was not originally intended for use in the jewelry industry.
Moreover, using high-quality synthetic garnets to imitate real ones does not make sense: due to the nature of the production process, the price of an artificial garnet similar to a natural one is comparable to the price of a natural one. On the other hand, thanks to the synthesis process, stones of any color and shade can be obtained, for example, deep blue garnets (which do not occur in nature).
Synthetic stones are used in industry, as an additive in mortars, in microelectronics, in laser devices, etc.
Connection with chakras and metals
There are two chakras associated with the sign of Scorpio:
- the first (Root, Muladhara) embodies the colors red and black; Garnet, hematite, and red jasper are used to manipulate it;
- second (Sacral, Svadhisthana); For chakra you need moonstones, coral and sardonyx.
The best magical metal of the constellation is iron.
Esotericists believe that it is better to frame precious stones in jewelry with white metals. Rubies or alexandrites - in white gold, topazes or beryls - in platinum, semi-precious amethyst or turquoise - in silver. Serpentine, hematite and jasper are complemented with cupronickel.

Precious or semi-precious garnet stone
A group of minerals called garnet is an example of how one of the reasons a stone is considered precious is its rarity in nature. In general, there are two main criteria for jewelry.
Firstly. Whether a garnet is semi-precious or precious also depends on the quality: the presence of impurities and cracks. A pure gem-quality crystal is rare and is considered precious. If the sample is opaque from many cracks and inclusions and looks more like a piece of earth (to put it mildly), then such a garnet is a semi-precious stone. But even this can be given a respectable look, for example, processed into a cabochon shape.
Secondly. According to B. Anderson's book Identification of Gemstones, mineralogists classify garnets into six main minerals: almandine, andradite, grossular, pyrope, spessartine and uvarovite. Only one variety of grossular is precious and suitable for jewelry - hessonite. The same applies to a variety of andradite - demantoid, its light refraction exceeds that of diamond, the stone shines with all the colors of the rainbow.
What stones should not be worn by a sign?
Gems of the solar range, that is, yellow or orange, are contraindicated for Scorpios.
- agate - steals Scorpio’s energy without replenishing it with anything: a person becomes lethargic and apathetic;
- amber is also a “vampirite” of the owner, at the same time taking away strong-willed qualities and determination, making him a loser;
- pearls - contemplation or wearing jewelry with this stone lulls, cools passions, kills love; extinguishes inspiration; makes life insipid, pushing Scorpio to risky ventures;
- citrine – the negative effect manifests itself in the creation of dependence on alcohol, drugs or gambling addiction; for their sake, a person will easily go on adventures, including crime; Alexandrite can help you get out of it.
Aventurine, onyx, emerald and topaz of the solar scale, and golden heliodor beryl are of little use.

Features of using stones
Stones according to zodiac signs that bring good luck work more effectively when used correctly :
- When buying alexandrite, hold the stone in your hands and listen to the sensations. If they are pleasant, the gem is suitable. This is a strong mineral, so it is not recommended to wear jewelry with it on a regular basis. They are removed at night or while sleeping.
- Garnet can create dizziness in Scorpios from amorous successes and a false halo around the object of passion. Therefore, the ring or earrings with it are sometimes removed in order to evaluate everything objectively.
The gem forces others to obey the owner of the jewelry.
But this advantage cannot be used with evil intentions, otherwise problems with the person’s health or those around him will inevitably occur.
- Talismans for Scorpio become stronger if you choose the right frame. It should be white metal or a frame in the shape of a scorpion or scarab beetle.

It is desirable that the box contains natural minerals of five to nine types. It is better to choose the wood recommended by the Druid horoscope as the material for the box: acacia, oak, aspen, chestnut or ash.
Cost of tourmaline stone
Tourmaline is a very expensive luxury. True, some of its varieties are not so highly valued. The cost of one carat of such samples is quite affordable. Other species are rare. And getting them is quite difficult. For example, the price of a Paraiba stone per 1 carat reaches $6,000. Of course, only wealthy people can afford such a purchase. There have been cases when a carat of a mineral was expensive. Of course, only wealthy people can afford such an acquisition. There were cases when 1 carat of mineral cost $10,000. When comparing the upward trend in the value of diamonds and tourmalines, it should be noted that it is the latter that are experiencing positive dynamics.
The price of a mineral is directly dependent on the degree of purity and transparency. Less transparent specimens are cheaper, and several times cheaper.
Bracelets and large beads are made from tourmaline. Experienced jewelry craftsmen strive not only to cut it, but also to show a fascinating story. This is achieved thanks to the arrangement with various noble metals: silver, gold and platinum.
Rings decorated with large minerals, as well as pendants and pendants are in great demand. Earrings with stones become an exquisite and beautiful product. Each piece of jewelry decorated with tourmaline looks attractive, unique and elegant. This is a truly amazing and extraordinary gem.
