It is rare to encounter a zero value in calculations. It means infinity, universal emptiness, the unknown of the universe. People born under this sign are not ordinary people; they are haunted by madness or genius.
Representatives are initially endowed with a number of magical abilities, many of them are active practitioners with psychic abilities. From birth they have access to the lost knowledge of ancient civilizations.
For them, the best amulet is a red diamond, which combines the properties of diamonds and rubies. They do not allow a person to break away from reality and completely go into the astral depths.
A red diamond is needed for those born under the zero sign.
The second most important talisman for representatives is jadeite, which helps to fully reveal their extrasensory abilities. If they need to improve their personal life, then they will have to find their majorite.
The only condition is the large size of the mineral, its absolute transparency and ideal cut. It is believed that the love sphere is the only plane in which those born under the “zero” sign constantly fail.
Lithotherapy: the effect of stones on human health
What stones are worn for health and longevity has been known since ancient times. The statement “all diseases come from nerves” is directly related to treatment with minerals. When psycho-emotional health is in order, many diseases recede and well-being improves.
Interesting to know!
Lithotherapy is based on the ability of objects to accumulate vibrations of certain energies. Minerals can do this better than other items due to their crystalline structure.
Tibetan monks still use lithotherapy today as the main method of treating ailments. They make pyramids out of stones into which they place the patient. Monks also create massagers and dishes from minerals, which have a positive effect on the human digestive system.
Chinese healers practice hot stone massage. Followers of Ayurveda use stones in various practices to harmonize the chakras. Eastern peoples and residents of the north put minerals at the bottom of the vessel, and then fill them with clean water to drink the charged liquid. According to their beliefs, such water helps to improve the functioning of the body, as well as expel all evil from the human body.
The theory of energy information fields is closely related to lithotherapy. All the best stones for health are selected individually. Each person contains unique energies, so what is good for one may harm another.
The healing properties of minerals vary greatly. Well-known crystals are capable of the following actions:
- Opal saves a man from impotence;
- Amazonite heals wounds;
- Citrine calms the nerves;
- Quartz clears the head from troubles;
- Lapis lazuli reduces inflammatory processes;
- Agate fights digestive problems;
- Aquamarine strengthens the immune system;
- Diamond increases blood circulation;
- Turquoise restores vision;
- Pomegranates target problematic skin;
- Pearls perfectly reduce blood pressure;
- Amber protects the heart and thyroid gland;
- Topaz helps with poisoning;
- Sapphire normalizes sleep and wards off colds;
- Ruby heals blood diseases and helps with epilepsy.
Of course, to get rid of a serious illness, lithotherapy alone is not enough. But as part of a complex treatment, the effect of stones on the human body will be appropriate.
Lithotherapy is used in all Eastern practices. There, stones as talismans for health are used everywhere. The sages of the East, Africa, Thailand and the Far North recommend wearing the mineral chosen for treatment close to the sore spot. After treatment, the stones are placed in salt for a week or more to cleanse them of the negativity drawn from the person. Afterwards, if the crystal has not darkened or tarnished, it can be worn as jewelry in the future.
Minerals that have lost their former shine after treatment are buried in the ground or released into the water. There is an opinion that such a stone has taken on the disease and it is dangerous to continue wearing it again. Reverse processes of disease transmission from stone to person may begin.
Shamans of different cultures believe that every living thing on Earth has its own spirit. Stone spirits are as real to them as the sun or the moon. You can negotiate with stones, say shamans. They can be persuaded to cure a person. To do this, the stones, or rather the spirits in them, are appeased and milk is poured onto the surface. According to an ancient belief, it is forbidden to mine stones in sacred places. If you take a mineral home from an ordinary mountainous area, you need to leave a fee of a few coins for the spirits.
Find out a stone by name
After selecting minerals by date of birth, experts suggest paying attention to seasonal options. They should be in complete harmony with the colors of the season:
- for winter - preference is given to white, blue, blue;
- spring - blue sky, young greenery;
- summer - bluish, yellowish, greenish, scarlet and other shades;

- icicles, snowflakes;
- flower buds;
- moths, drops;
- ladybugs, bunches of rowan.
Popular divisions include searching for stones by gender. Appropriate amulets are selected for female and male genders.
For women
For each female name there is a specific symbol, represented by flowers, trees, numbers.
The affiliation of magical minerals is selected according to a similar principle.
For whom? | Suitable mineral |

Stones for the zodiac sign Aquarius

White quartz
It is aesthetically attractive, will delight the eye with its beauty and translucent appearance, and the construction of a quartz heater will look unusual. It has a peculiar glow, for which it received the nickname “hot ice”. Quartz is an oxide of silicon from a chemical point of view. When the rock is exposed to heat, ozone begins to be released. This fact is the reason that the mineral is preferred among true connoisseurs of the bath procedure.
With constant thermal exposure to stones, they begin to burst. This requires the owner of a stove made of this material to be attentive and patient. If the material is cracked, it must be replaced. A sample of white shades, with a dark base color gives a good visual effect. It can be used in a sauna where there is no strong heating, for example, in a swimming pool or in a fitness center.
White quartz
Advantages:
- fast heating;
- slow heat release;
- white shades look beautiful;
- pleasant aroma;
- good heat dissipation.
Flaws:
- bursts when exposed to high temperatures;
- If the stone is cracked, sharp corners may remain.
Serpentinite
The name of the stone contrasts with the word "serpentarium", which suggests that it has something to do with snakes. This feeling has a basis in truth, since the material is otherwise called a coil. The green shades and texture are similar to snake skin. The shape resembles a flattened snake head. The sample is rich in metal ore impurities; it contains olivine, carbonates, talc and garnet. Shades can be not only green, but also gray.
The material has an attractive appearance and is vaguely similar to jadeite. Due to this similarity, unscrupulous traders pass it off as jadeite. When used to lay out a stove in a bathhouse, it will not withstand high temperatures and will crack. But this does not mean that it is not suitable for a bath; serpentinite is suitable as a facing material. They can be used to finish bath walls and even the stove itself, if the tiles do not have cracks.
Serpentinite
Advantages:
- rich in impurities of metal ores;
- attractive look.
Flaws:
- not found.
Peridotite
Clean and safe from an environmental point of view. Can be used for baths, as it can withstand temperature changes without cracking over many cycles. It has good heat transfer and the ability to accumulate heat; it is also attractive due to its steam saturation. The material tolerates heavy loads well and can be used to build a heater.
Peridotite
Advantages:
- not subject to cracking;
- there are no impurities harmful to health;
- stays hot for a long time;
- has high specific heat capacity.
Flaws:
- short period of use (up to 3 years).
Porphyrite
The natural base is silicon oxide, called silica. It contains iron, an admixture of calcium oxides, and magnesium. It is of volcanic origin and comes in black, gray or greenish tints. As a material, it has good heat capacity, which is useful in arranging a steam room. But it does not have great strength, like, for example, jadeite. All minerals belonging to the type of polyminerals have this disadvantage. Uneven heating of the components leads to ruptures and destruction of the rock.
Porphyrite will last stably for 2-3 years.
Sometimes the rock contains sulfites, which will not please the buyer at all. A visual inspection reveals their presence. They are identified by veins or the presence of special inclusions that have a metallic shine. In some cases, sulfites look like small golden crystals. If there are such “patterns” on more than 5% of the surface of the material, it is better to refuse it.
If the material contains a lot of sulfites, it can cause a stinging sensation in the eyes, a foul odor, and a sore throat.
Typically, reviews write about the suitability of stone for building a stove in a bathhouse, since it is affordable. It is possible to obtain light vapor from it, but for those who have something to compare with, the sample will not be the best. If you have a sulfur smell, you don’t have to worry: it goes away after a few days of bathing.
It has a composition similar to jadeite - metal oxides and silica, but sulfites negatively affect the strength, reducing the service life to 2-3 years. The mineral is safe from an environmental point of view, there is no radiation in it, the steam from it is not thick, but it is light. The material will be ideal for rare visits to the bathhouse, and when buying it, you need to monitor the veins, their number should not exceed 5%.
Porphyrite
Advantages:
- low cost;
- does not heat up for long;
- has good heat capacity;
- gives light steam;
- has a low level of radioactivity.
Flaws:
- contains sulfites;
- does not have high strength.
Nephritis
Pyroxent is a popular material used in the construction of baths. It, like jadeite, retains heat well, has high strength and aesthetic appeal. The word “jade” brings up associations with green tones, but what matters is the impurities in the solution. If jade has a pink tint, it contains magnesium, black iron. The stone gets its green tones due to the presence of chromium impurities.
Among the inhabitants of the East, jade was called the “stone of health”; it is considered a cure for many diseases. The purchase of material should be made from time-tested companies. Purchasing from a random dealer may be fraught with consequences for the future owner, who may sell a coil instead of the required material. The sample does not have healing properties and a long service life.
The main difference is durability and high thermal conductivity. The stove heats up quickly and purifies the steam, which promotes relaxation and has a beneficial effect on metabolism. It can be used for the construction of various heaters, but it has a disadvantage - high cost. Due to its cost, the stone began to be often counterfeited. Original jade is difficult to split with a hammer, and to get pieces of stone, it is cut.
Nephritis
Advantages:
- use on an open fire;
- has high heat transfer;
- has high strength indicators;
- softens steam;
- long service life (about 10 years);
- fast heating.
Flaws:
- price.
How to turn a gem into a talisman
First you need to “get to know” the stone. If it is a lunar mineral, then it is brought home on the waxing Moon, and for jewelry and a stone purchased at an exhibition, it is necessary to take a “bath” - bathe in clean water, rinse thoroughly so that no traces of other people, thoughts and desires remain on the stone .
Two weeks after acquisition, the mineral is not used for its intended purpose, but they communicate with it - they stroke it, praise it, talk to it. To ensure that the mineral does not fade during wear or lose its magical power, it must be washed and “recharged” with moonlight.
When wearing multiple stones, the owner should be aware of the combination of minerals. Many stones come into conflict with each other, and there is a high probability of getting the opposite effect to what was intended.
Cracked jewelry that has been damaged from mechanical impact should not be worn or used. But if it is amber with a natural defect, then it is permissible to use it. Artificial stones are just decoration, a talisman can only be natural, but even an artificial decoration with a defect increases all the negative effects. Therefore, no matter how much you value the jewelry, if it has deteriorated and cannot be restored, you will have to get rid of it.
Why do we need a talisman?
Among all protection items, talismans are considered the most effective tools. Stones balance the negative aspects of a person, help to relax, cleanse energy, and even awaken hidden talents. In essence, a talisman is a personal magnet of good luck, luck and peace of mind.
But amulets serve to protect against the evil eye, bad spells, ward off external threats and reduce the strength of negative influences directed at the owner of a valuable accessory. Choosing amulets is a complex matter, requiring concentration and attention. Protective amulets are selected according to many parameters - date, time of birth, season, character, type of activity.
A correctly selected mineral will become at the same time a talisman, an amulet and a talisman. That is, it will help protect against misfortunes and reveal the fullness of the owner’s personality.
Natural minerals are a unique storehouse of energy that has been accumulated over many hundreds, or even thousands of years. Therefore, even skeptics often have to agree - “your” stone really helps in life and endows the owner with many positive qualities, leveling out the negative aspects of nature.
The stones react to the energy field, the aura of the owner. If your mineral has darkened, suddenly cracked or chipped, be on your guard. Perhaps you are facing serious danger, illness or troubles in the family or at work.
