LEO: Like Aries, a kindred fire sign, you love red, so when it comes to gems and stones, the royal ruby
springs to mind. Speaking of royalty, have whatever you wear set in that most royal of all metals˜gold.
Nothing suits a legend more, and gold has a long-standing link with the Sun, your ruling planet. To
increase your natural courage and help you speak eloquently, a trait any performer appreciates, wear
carnelian Amber is also a good match for you, as it holds the life force your sign is famous for.
VIRGO: Although the agate is one of your birthstones the type that seems to Correspond best with your
sign is the moss agate, a lovely clear stone with feathery green threads running through it that look like
ferns. This stone is best worn while gardening, one of your very favorite pastimes. Agates also promote
good physical health, and health is your business, after all. Your other birthstone, the aventurine,
increases the perceptive powers, sharpens the intellectual faculties, and helps to fine-tune the
eyesight˜something any draftsperson can use.
LIBRA: Your traditional birth stone is the opal, but there are other stones that can be worn or carried to
help you achieve your goal of finding and keeping that one special other. Any stone associated with
Venus, your ruling planet, will do nicely, such as lapis lazuli. This lovely blue stone with golden flecks
of pyrite mystically blends the energies of Venus and Mars (the planets in charge of relationships), and is
worn to soothe, heal, and calm the wearer. Another good stone for Libra is kunzite, since its specialty is
attracting love.
SCORPIO: Black is Pluto's color, and red belongs to Mars, the planet that ruled Scorpio before Pluto was
discovered. These are the traditional power colors, and power is your specialty˜so these stones will attract
you most. Red stones like carnelian, jasper, and red garnets appeal to your warrior side, and black stones
fascinate you˜like apache tears, black tourmaline, or hematite. To ground and protect yourself, use Pluto's
favorite stones, spinet kunzite, or rutilated quartz, which is perfect for Scorpio since it's a stone within a
stone, and, like you, is full of buried treasure.
SAGITARIUS:
Sagittarius' most important goal is to truly be a 'wise one," so sodalite is wonderful for you. It helps to
gain wisdom and to pass that wisdom back out into the world. Sodalite (and sugilite) also calms the
mind, and may help even Sagittarians settle down long enough to meditate. Amethyst, ruled by Sag's
planet, Jupiter, is another good match. Itclears the mind and quickens the wit. You'll love both blue and
amber topaz, too, said to bring wealth and happiness to all December-born.
CAPRICORN:
Rock endures, and permanence is a quality Capricorn finds all too rare, so you're quite fond of all stones.
Most books say darker stones are your favorites, like onyx, hematite, and obsidian, because they're
affiliated with Saturn, your planet, but try malachite. It operates like a magnet when it comes to attracting
a good deal, and if you carry this stone on your left, you'll draw business success. Malachite also helps
heal broken bones, and since your sign rules the skeleton of the body, this stone is a kindred spirit.
AQUARIUS:
Although your birthstone is the gentle, peace-loving amethyst, your energies seem to blend better with
stones that conduct ideas, since you're an air sign, and communication is your business. Aventurine is
carried to enhance mental clarity and keenness, and sphere, a greenish stone, is reputed to help with
processing information. The best conductor of all is clear quartz, however, so it's not surprising to find
clusters placed strategically throughout an Aquarian's home˜ especially around the computer.
PISCES:
The color of any stone you carry directly affects your disposition. So if you're feeling like you need to
put out a little more energy than you've got, toss a couple of red stones into your right (or "outgoing"
side) pocket. Red carried there gives our personal presentation a fiery Uplift." As far as birthstones go,
the amethyst has always been yours, and appropriately so: these gentle lavender crystals lift the spirits
protect you from addictions, and aid in good judgment. Suglite has also been used, just lately, as a
birthstone for Pisces. It's a relatively new stone, but it seems to bestow psychic awareness and is said to
make the wearer wise.
