Inappropriate neighborhood
Stones do not have the same effect on all zodiac signs. There are gems that are strictly contraindicated for people born in a particular period. Capricorns are no exception. Some stones enhance the negative aspects of the sign, while others, on the contrary, weaken the positive ones. For example, emerald can turn the already not very sociable Capricorn into an absolute hermit. Citrine gives this prudent sign a touch of adventurism and recklessness.
It has been noticed that many Capricorn women who prefer to wear pearl jewelry are not very lucky in finding a life partner.
Separately, you need to dwell on such a gem as sapphire. It has very strong energy, but can either give it to its owner or take it away. The result may be unpredictable. Therefore, some astrologers recommend that Capricorns conduct a small check before wearing jewelry made from this mineral. To do this, you should put it under your pillow at night. If you had nightmares at night or had insomnia, then you do not need to wear a product with sapphire too often.

What is rhodolite?
Simply put, rhodolite is a pink garnet. It is considered a semi-precious stone and can range in color from pink to purple-violet-red. Like all garnets, it has the characteristic properties of a gemstone: brilliance, hardness (7-7.5 on the Mohs scale) and color. Less vibrant in hue than most other red garnets, rhodolite is distinguished from its darker red siblings by being a rich shade of pink-crimson with subtle purple variations. From a chemical point of view, it is a mixture of two varieties of red garnet: two parts blood-red pyrope and one part red almandine - while the rhodolite itself is brighter than both stones.

Rhodolite: a little history
The beginning of the use of garnets in jewelry design can be dated back to prehistoric times. Egyptian pharaohs wore red garnet necklaces, the same jewelry was widespread in Ancient Rome - garnet stones set in rings were used for wax seals. Over the centuries, interest in this stone has been revived again and again, including in the Middle Ages, when it was worn by nobles, as well as in the Georgian and Victorian eras, but rhodolite specifically did not appear on the scene much later. In the late 1890s in North Carolina, a Rhode Island mineralogist named William Earl Hidden first discovered rhodolite in the Covey Valley of North Carolina. At the same time, deposits were also discovered in Brazil, Greenland, Kenya, Mozambique, Norway and the United States. The most important sources of stone quarrying today are Tanzania, Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe and India. Rhodolite is not officially recognized as a mineral, but the name has stuck as a trade name for this variety of garnet.

General characteristics of those born in January
January is the month in which two zodiac signs intersect: Capricorn and Aquarius. January people are under the patronage of Saturn. They like to speculate, delve into the essence of things and achieve the truth in every possible way. An analytical mind helps you achieve your goal. Capricorns and Aquarius are quite self-confident individuals. However, excessive seriousness and career focus interfere with building relationships with others. In January, people are born who are often visited by feelings of loneliness and misunderstanding. The concept of friendship and devotion is not an empty phrase for them, so they may have few truly close friends.
As for health, the most common phenomena are varicose veins and hemorrhoids. Also, January people may develop nervousness, melancholy, and depression. This causes frequent headaches and fatigue.
Women born in January are characterized by hospitality and thriftiness. In married life, this is a support and “earthly compass” for their husbands: they will direct them in the right direction, listen, advise and motivate.

To the untrained eye, rhodolite may resemble other gemstones - such as ruby, pink tourmaline, rubellite or spinel - because they are all hard, transparent, have a glassy luster and can be pinkish-red in color. However, unlike rubies and other gemstones, rhodolite garnets are never treated to enhance color.
What does its name mean?
Rhodolite was named after the pink rhododendron flower that grows in North Carolina, the state in which the stone was first discovered. Like other pink stones such as rhodochrosite and rhodonite, the name rhodolite comes from the Greek word "rhodon", meaning "pink".
