The birthstone of a Capricorn woman or man, like any other symbol of the zodiac sign, must correspond to the character, temperament and charm of its owner. Since ancient times, people have attributed magical properties to various minerals. In addition, many precious and semi-precious stones have always been used to make works of art. How can a modern woman use this ancient knowledge? According to the horoscope, Capricorn is a very strong zodiac sign; its representatives are distinguished by their determination, perseverance and strong character. Accordingly, you need to select stones for jewelry and amulets.
Brief characteristics of the sign
Capricorns are a Zodiac sign that is influenced by the Earth element
and
Saturn
.
To briefly characterize its representatives, they are responsible, purposeful and hardworking individuals. But their main feature is that they may not open up to even the closest people for years, keeping sincere feelings, experiences, problems deep inside themselves. Interesting:
Capricorns are born between December 22 and January 20. Their main color is dark blue. And the flower is a violet.
Another feature of Capricorns is that even their most positive qualities can negatively affect fate and life:
- Devotion
. Capricorns carefully choose their friends and soulmate and remain devoted to their loved ones until the bitter end. However, many can benefit from the Sign's devotion. This quality also makes breaking up with loved ones more painful. - Kindness
. People born in December-January are the kindest. They easily help and are always ready to listen. At the same time, excessive kindness can become the reason that Capricorn will simply be taken advantage of (or rather, because of his inability to refuse). - Patience
. Capricorns are people who are ready to work tirelessly. They don't wait for something to be handed to them on a silver platter. They achieve everything themselves. But representatives of the Earth Sign are ready to endure for the sake of others. Even if it is to the detriment of their health, condition, and mood. - Closedness
. Representatives of the Earth element keep all their thoughts to themselves and do not waste time communicating with unnecessary people. But unfortunately, isolation can lead to a lack of friends and poor relationships with loved ones.
This is the contradictory character of Capricorns. On the one hand, each of their qualities can be positive. But on the other hand, if you use it incorrectly, you can only ruin your life. Therefore, esotericists strongly recommend that people born between December 22 and January 20 use the energy of stones.
Medicinal properties
The Vedic science of Ayurveda uses organic pearl beads to reduce vata and pitta in the body, increasing moisture levels for skin rejuvenation, beautiful hair, and removal of toxins. Vital energy increases, libido improves, and pregnancy miraculously occurs, even when official medicine has given a negative answer.
In contact with the skin, pearls set in silver successfully treat the following disorders:
- memory loss, nervous tension, overwork;
- stomach ulcers, constipation, obesity;
- bronchitis, pneumonia, sore throat;
- sleepwalking, insomnia, hysterical attacks;
- painful menstruation, amenorrhea;
- breast cancer, uterine cancer, ovarian cysts;
- skin rashes, eczema, psoriasis.
Long beads will support a woman during pregnancy and ensure a flow of milk after childbirth. Lithotherapists advise rejuvenating the skin by washing your face with water in which 20 pearls were infused at night. Surprisingly, mother-of-pearl “peas” normalize both high and low blood pressure.
When tumors occur, the acidity of the skin changes, and gems in contact with it signal a problem by darkening and cracking.
What stones are suitable for Capricorns?
Capricorns can purchase stones for themselves. Or they can accept them as gifts from loved ones. The main thing is that the minerals are natural.
Important:
Only natural gems have energy potential. Even the most expensive artificial stones cannot change your life!
The most recommended for representatives of the Earth element are stones of “earthly” origin. It is advisable to give preference to minerals of dark shades (the most favorable color is dark blue). The life of the Earth element Sign is well influenced by stones belonging to the Water element. Everything here is the same as in life: without moisture, the earth cannot become obedient and fertile. The use of minerals of the Air and Fire elements is not prohibited (but only with the right choice of mineral).
It is recommended to select a gem for Capricorn individually, taking into account the person’s birthday, gender, diseases, problems, etc. Among the most universal, several minerals can be distinguished. Moreover, this applies not only to precious, but also semi-precious stones.
Gems for Capricorn
The best gemstone for Capricorns is a black diamond.
His main task is to help achieve goals. Representatives of the Earth element constantly strive for something more. But they do not always achieve this because of their modesty and isolation. A diamond gives a new breath of inspiration and helps you move towards your goal, no matter what. Another useful property of it is protection from the negative thoughts of other people (extremely important given the gullibility and kindness of Capricorns). Also universal gemstones include:
- Tourmaline
(protects from dangers, reduces the negative impact of surrounding people and the world as a whole, “cleanses” life of bad personalities); - Onyx
(gives its owner self-confidence, develops self-love, wards off strong troubles, attracts good luck in new endeavors); - Pomegranate
(attracts good luck, enhances the influence of its owner on surrounding people, ongoing events, promotes the development of creative potential); - Obsidian
(helps quickly make the right decisions, maintains a positive attitude, brings good luck); - Carnelian
(eliminates stiffness, makes a person more influential in the eyes of others, simplifies communication with loved ones).
All these stones can be used by both men and women, regardless of date of birth or character traits. Precious minerals have the same positive effect on all Capricorns. They can be safely presented as a gift to a person born between December 22 and January 20.
Semi-precious stones for Capricorn
Semi-precious stones differ from precious stones only in the degree of value and cost.
As for the energy level, in this case it is also high. This is explained by the nature of their origin. For Capricorns, several semi-precious stones can be distinguished among the universal ones:
- Turquoise
(calms the constant flow of thoughts, helps to cope with vain worries, and also has a beneficial effect on the general condition); - Agate
(provides the resources necessary to achieve goals, helps to quickly adapt to any changing situations); - Rauchtopaz
(unlocks creative potential, improves brain activity, memory, helps to more easily endure high mental workload in difficult times); - Rock crystal
(makes it easier to work with information, helps assess a situation without unnecessary emotionality, improves a person’s communication skills).
Versatile semi-precious stones can be presented for any occasion. The best occasion is a birthday. Also, a gift with a semi-precious mineral, the energy of which can positively influence the life of Capricorn, will be relevant on New Year, Christmas and other holidays.
Story
This stone is located in hydrothermal layers of the earth's crust, where there is a natural circulation of hot and cold springs. Water accumulated without oxygen under high pressure in narrow crevices freezes for tens of hundreds of years, turning into rainbow stones. Tourmaline is of volcanic origin, it is found in granite and granite-like rocks, it is found in quartz deposits with beryl, topaz and wolframite.
In Russia, these stones were called sybarites, since their deposits were discovered in the Urals and Transbaikalia. They were used to decorate icon frames and church utensils, and the largest Russian gem, weighing 100 grams, adorns the Crown of the Russian Empire, made for Catherine I.
In India, this particular type of mineral is considered the most valuable. The stone has been used for centuries to create jewelry, but later its magical and healing properties were discovered. Until the 16th century, tourmaline was called lal, like all red jewelry.
Tourmalines were brought to Europe by sailors from the Netherlands returning from the Indian colonies at the turn of the 17th-18th centuries. The first description of the stone in the catalog of minerals of 1711 was made by a physician practicing in Ceylon, Paul Hermann.
In those days, stone jewelry was made only for royalty and nobility. There is a legend that Cleopatra gave Caesar this gem in the form of a bunch of grapes. It was called Caesar's Ruby.
Then traces of the mineral are lost in time, but in the 18th century it comes to the Swedish king Gustav III, who presented it to the autocrat of Russia Catherine II. True, at that time the mineral was classified as a ruby, and only in the last century it turned out that it was Burmese pink tourmaline. The jewel is kept in the Russian Diamond Fund.
Some historians believe that the name of the stone comes from the Senegalese phrase tura mali, which means “stone with mixed colors.” Some believe that the word "turmali" is translated as "precious." Others insist that "turmali" is interpreted as "attracting ashes." Allegedly, using this property of the mineral, Dutch colonists extracted tobacco ashes from their smoking pipes with raw tourmaline crystals.
Stones for Capricorn women
Women born under the Sign of Capricorn are purposeful, family-oriented, and kind.
For such ladies, the ground never goes away from under their feet. They remain reasonable and reliable in all situations. For most women, tears and weakness are not typical. But often this is what hinders them in life. Men are afraid of strong, independent girls. The following can improve the lives of Capricorn women:
- Carnelian
- eliminates complexes, prolongs youth, increases attractiveness in the eyes of the opposite sex, and also improves overall physical and mental well-being - Ruby
- protects against black magic, “burns” the surrounding negativity, makes life calmer, more positive, helps with work issues - Malachite
- helps to discover true feminine wisdom, intuition, prevents serious quarrels with loved ones, balances tolerance - Jasper
- develops the spiritual part, attracts material wealth into life, promotes faster achievement of goals - Tiger's eye
- eliminates internal pressures, helps to become more sociable, free, increases self-confidence - Rauchtopaz
- develops creativity, improves intuition
Garnet is considered the most versatile stone for women.
. It combines the properties of all the minerals described above and is able to positively influence all areas of life.
Please note that stones do not attract love into life and do not help in finding a young man. The thing is that Capricorn women themselves have everything necessary for sincere and pure love. She does not appear due to incorrect development of her qualities. Each mineral helps balance character. The result is self-confidence, increased beauty in the eyes of others and naturally attracting a suitable partner into your life.
Stones for Capricorn men
Men born from December 22 to January 20 are responsible, disciplined and persistent individuals. They have everything to easily achieve their goals. But it is precisely this “everything” that can negatively affect other areas of life. The deterioration especially affects the family.
To balance individual spheres, it is enough to use natural minerals:
- Onyx
- helps build positive relationships with people from different life segments (colleagues, friends, family), improves communication skills, and helps achieve goals faster. - Obsidian
- helps in difficult situations, maintains a good mood, fights the surrounding negativity. - Chrysoprase
- increases masculine energy, makes its owner more courageous and attractive in the eyes of others, protects against black magic. - Tourmaline
- protects against the evil eye, improves overall well-being, promotes more rational and less emotional thinking.
What all minerals have in common is that they do not allow Capricorn men to withdraw into themselves (which very often happens when there are problems or plans are disrupted).
Stones for Capricorn child
For Capricorn children, astrologers recommend choosing amber, rock crystal, and rose quartz. These minerals have a gentle effect on character (without breaking it at a young age), making the child more sociable and confident in society. But their most important task is protection from negative influences (including gossip, damage). Therefore, it is recommended to wear minerals from the very birth of the baby. Of course, there is no need to put pendants and bracelets on a child. It is enough to keep the amulet close to him, his crib or in his purse (on walks).
Stones for Capricorn by decade
Why do the character, habits and characteristics of Capricorns often differ? It's all about the exact date of birth of a person, or rather the decade. The stones that are suitable for a particular person also depend on it:
First ten days (December 22 – January 2)
Capricorns born during this period are distinguished by responsibility, sharpened logical thinking, and decency. But they find it difficult to communicate with others, and they often overwork. Astrologers recommend that such individuals regularly carry jewelry with a tiger's eye, dark agate, jasper, rock crystal, and malachite. These minerals will help improve communication with others, and also speed up the achievement of goals.
Second decade (3.01 – 12.01)
Capricorns of the second decade are full of creative plans and ambitions. They easily achieve success in areas of interest to them. But they cannot live without clear incentives and tasks. Also, such individuals are prone to frequent despondency and unnecessary worries. Therefore, it is better for them to choose jewelry with peridot, onyx, carnelian or opal.
Third decade (13.01 - 20.01)
In the third decade, complex personalities are born who initially elevate themselves among others. Therefore, it is often difficult for them to find a common language with others. Tourmaline, ruby, and opal will help improve communication.
People born at the junction can safely acquire minerals from both decades. For example, if you are choosing a gift for a girl born on January 13, you can buy both a ruby ring and an onyx pendant.
Let's not forget about the East
The eastern horoscope largely guides modern residents of China, Japan, and India. Even now, not a single person will set a wedding day or an important meeting without checking compatibility with a partner with an astrologer. And not just the “gray mass”. Educated and enlightened people turn to astrologers. Why are we worse?
Chinese Zodiac

When choosing a mineral, it is recommended to take into account both the year and day of birth. It’s good if one mineral fits both parameters. But this is rare. In most cases the stones are different. In such situations, it is better to choose several jewelry (the main thing is that the stones match each other in energy level) or give preference to the mineral whose properties are more relevant for a particular person. And it’s worth talking about these properties in more detail.
Capricorn talisman stones for specific purposes
The general tasks of all the minerals described above are similar. They help to acquire inner harmony. But besides this, each natural stone has an additional effect aimed at a specific area of life:
- Health
. Tourmaline, serpentine, black onyx, agate, and jade can improve the psychological and physiological health of Capricorn. They also have a positive effect on the functions of the reproductive system. - Luck, luck
. Obsidian, onyx, and garnet can bring good luck to Capricorns. These stones are especially recommended for businessmen, as well as those whose mood or financial situation depends on other people or chance. - Wealth
. Carnelian, citrine, jasper, and agate attract financial well-being. These minerals contribute to successful business development or faster climb up the career ladder. - Protection
. Apatite, tourmaline, chrysoprase and ruby protect well from evil eyes and damage. Rock crystal also works well against black magic. Moreover, these stones protect not only from intentional evil, but also from that which people do unconsciously. - Love
. The most favorable for attracting sincere love are carnelian, opal, ruby. Moreover, they don’t just “bring” their soulmate to life. They contribute to internal positive changes in the person himself, thanks to which love is attracted.
If there is no specific purpose for using a mineral, it is recommended to give preference to universal stones.
The healing power of the mineral
- The stone has a beneficial effect on the nervous and endocrine systems of the body.
- In addition, it is believed that it eliminates cancer pathologies!
- The gem normalizes the process of falling asleep and makes its owner calmer.
- It should be noted that the healing abilities of the mineral are largely due to its color. This will determine which parts of the body and organs the stone affects. For example, green minerals treat the kidneys, liver, hematopoietic system, and provide general support for the entire body.
Of all the other variations of the stone, it is green tourmalines that have a pronounced rejuvenating effect, which will help preserve youth and beauty for a long time.
Blue stones have a beneficial effect on the hormonal sphere, as well as on the lymph nodes.
If you want to envelop yourself in an invisible aura of enormous power, use black tourmalines, which work real miracles. They reliably protect a person from any negativity and the actions of evil tongues. In addition, black stones cleanse the human body of bad energy and give its owner positive character traits.
The best lithotherapists from India recommend using black, pink, blue and green gems for healing from any ailments.
Relationship of the Zodiac Sign with chakras, metal, wood
The ideal metal option for Capricorns is noble platinum and gold. Silver can also be used by representatives of this Sign. But it is worth considering that it may slightly dull the influence of the stone, which is why the effect will not be so obvious and quick. This does not apply to high-quality silver.
If you prefer wood amulets, then choose those made of chestnut, hornbeam or oak. These three trees are fateful in the life of Capricorns. By the way, if you live in a private house, then it makes sense to plant at least one of them in the yard.
Another important characteristic for Capricorns is the chakra. Representatives of this Zodiac Sign are protected by muladhara. This is the root chakra, located in the perineum area. Therefore, when meditating with natural stones, Capricorns should definitely take the lotus position. And the talismans themselves are best worn on the wrist (bracelets, rings).
Origin
Since ancient times, our ancestors have noticed the ability of tourmaline to attract ash and dust particles. It received the name “magic stone” due to its magnetic qualities. Also, it is a symbol of the spiritual, wise principle.
Beauty was also considered one of those characteristics that attracted people. In sunny Egypt it was called the “gem of the rainbow.” The legend says that it came from the Sun itself. During this star journey, the stone absorbed different colors.
In Byzantium in the 19th century, gold-mounted items were made. In Russia they learned about the skill of jewelers, and already at the beginning of the 15th century they began to make similar jewelry.
The year 1703 was the time when Europe learned about the beauty of the gem. The event took place thanks to Dutch sailors. They brought it from Ceylon. Since that time, tourmaline has become an adornment for crowned heads, attracting admiring glances.
Features of using stones for Capricorns
Some minerals require special wearing:
- A ruby should only be worn as a ring/ring and preferably on the right hand;
- Onyx shows up best in earrings or a small ring;
- Tiger's eye works well when placed in a pendant.
All other stones can be worn in other jewelry. You can also use full-fledged amulets (carried in a handbag or wallet) or amulets (installed at home, in the office).
You can also enhance the effect of any mineral by cutting it. For example, if you are interested in more femininity, choose a cat pendant decorated with tourmaline. And for better success at work - a pendant in the shape of a ladder with jasper.
It is recommended to wear minerals constantly. It is advisable to alternate different stones.
Interesting:
The fewer prying eyes looking at the stone, the more benefits it will bring.
After wearing for a long time, gems should be washed with clean water at room temperature. It is better to store them in velvet bags.
How to wear amulets?
According to modern lithoastrologers, the amulet is an intimate stone. This is not decoration, but your protection. And you need to wear it so that the stone touches the skin. It can be beads, a pendant, a bracelet made of beads. The main thing is personal, physical contact with the gem.
At the same time, no one bothers you to wear other jewelry with “your” stones. Wear rings, earrings, necklaces, cufflinks. Any “yours, Capricorn” pebble will contribute to the prosperity and well-being of the owner
