I wanted to start by finding out what the birthstone for Capricorn is, so I went to look it up online. Turns out, it’s called a Garnet, which looks like a deep red color. I decided to get one of these and also a Black Tourmaline since I read that it’s good for protection.
I am born in January 5th, so I am a Capricorn.
Get the Crystals
First, I went and bought a Garnet and a Black Tourmaline. They weren’t too hard to find, just went to a local crystal shop. I made sure to pick ones that felt right to me when I held them.
Cleanse the Crystals
Next, I needed to cleanse these stones. I learned that crystals can hold onto old energy, and you want to start fresh. So, I ran them under some cold water for a few minutes. While doing this, I imagined any negativity just washing away. After that, I pat them dry with a soft cloth.
Hold and Set Intentions
Now for the important part, I found a quiet spot in my house, sat down comfortably, and closed my eyes. I held the Garnet in one hand and the Black Tourmaline in the other. Then I start to think of my intention, I focused on what I wanted these crystals to help me with. For the Garnet, I thought about boosting my motivation and energy, since I’ve been feeling a bit sluggish lately. For the Black Tourmaline, I focused on feeling more protected and grounded, especially when I’m out and about.
Carry Them Around
After setting my intentions, I started carrying these crystals with me. I put them in a small pouch that I keep in my pocket. That way, they’re always close to me, and I can hold them whenever I feel like I need a little boost or some extra protection.
Reflect and Recharge
- Reflect: Every few days, I take some time to reflect on how I’m feeling. I think about whether I’m noticing any changes since I started using the crystals. It’s been interesting to see how my motivation has improved, and I do feel a bit more secure and grounded.
- Recharge: About once a month, I recharge the crystals. I place them on a windowsill where they can soak up some sunlight or moonlight. I learned that this helps to keep their energy strong and effective.
So, that’s been my experience with using Capricorn crystals. It’s been a pretty cool journey, and I’m glad I gave it a try. These little stones have become a part of my daily routine, and I feel like they’re making a positive difference in my life.
