Talisman or amulet?
The word talisman comes from the ancient Greek “tilsam”, which translates as “enchantment”.
This is the name of a magical thing that attracts good luck, awakens abilities and carries positive energy, i.e. actively influences human life. Most often, a talisman is used to obtain some benefit - love, fame, wealth. An amulet, unlike a talisman, is considered a passive symbol. It protects from external negativity and acts as a guard for its owner.
Some stones can combine the functions of a talisman and a talisman. Such stones are called amulets. It is believed that the most powerful amulets are those that have been used in the family for several generations. The mineral, which is inherited, is tailored to the energy of the family and over the years its strength only increases.
Since ancient times, people have used minerals not only as decoration, but also as magical helpers. According to esotericists, every creation of nature has a certain energy charge. By wearing jewelry with one or another stone, you can feel its power. Many minerals can bring good luck and enhance positive character traits. But you should be careful about your choice because... the stone may not suit you in terms of energy or develop character traits that you would not want to emphasize. For example, Aries are gambling by nature, so aventurine, which enhances this quality, is not recommended for them. If you want jewelry made from gems to please you with its appearance, serve as a talisman and bring good luck, then you should choose a stone that is most compatible with your energy.

Dangerous stones
When choosing your mineral, you need to know that not all stones you like can become reliable helpers and protectors for their owner. There is a group of gems that correspond to human energy under certain conditions.
opal stone is suitable only for those born in the last days of September. If opal jewelry is worn by someone born in a different period, this gem can lead to depression and cause apathy. Especially if you wear it constantly.
On a note! Most minerals can only be used to achieve a specific magical purpose. Wearing them constantly is not recommended. The exception is stones based on date of birth.

By following the recommendations on the incompatibility of stones according to zodiac signs, you can avoid the negative influence of an unsuitable mineral.
How to choose the right amulet
The best amulet is the gem indicated in the table of zodiac signs. But sometimes it is necessary to purchase additional minerals to solve pressing issues. How to find your stone? In this matter, you should rely solely on internal sensations.
First, take a closer look at the gem: it should attract attention. The stone seems to be looking for its owner and “signaling” its readiness to cooperate. If you notice among the scattering of stones the one that “looks” at you, do not hesitate - this is it.
Next, you need to take the pebble in your palm and hold it for a while. You should feel the internal warmth from the mineral, pleasant vibrations. If this happens, pay the check. Once you bring your new assistant home, start getting to know him. The stone can be washed in clean water and placed to bask in the sun’s rays (moonstone under the moon’s rays).
After this, you need to not part with the mineral for several days, or even weeks. Wear it on your body during the day and place it under your pillow at night. After this, the gem will become your friend and fulfill any wishes.
However, do not forget that stones have their own character and “moral code”. They can be at enmity with other gems and bring misfortune to their owner. You cannot carry several stones at the same time: they may belong to “hostile tribes”. First, figure out how they go together, and then wear them.
How to make a gem as a talisman
If the stone is supposed to be used as a magical or healing assistant, an “acquaintance” procedure is carried out. The pebble is bought and brought home on a certain lunar day. This is especially important for minerals protected by the Moon. Many people tried on or looked at the accessories in the salon, so after purchasing the jewelry, it is cleaned with energetic running water.
For two weeks the stone is not used, but contact is established with it: they communicate, stroke it, praise it. To ensure that the power of the stone does not decrease during use, it is recharged in the sun or moonlight. It is advisable to take into account energetic compatibility with other gems in the box or jewelry.
Talismans can only be natural, whole, not cracked or damaged minerals. Artificial ones will be decorations; stones with defects do more harm than good.
