Functions of amulets stones and their use
For a long time, people have been interested in the properties of stones: they were used in alchemy and medicine, endowing them with magical and healing qualities. Now they are increasingly used as talismans, for which both expensive and minerals are suitable. It is very important that the pebble be natural, since artificial ones do not carry the necessary energy and can have the opposite effect.
When choosing an amulet, you should start from your zodiac sign. Although it happens that with perfect compatibility the stone is rejected on an intuitive level. Therefore, always rely on your feelings.
It is important to feel “your” pebble. A correctly chosen amulet can influence both individual areas and life in general. It helps improve physical and emotional well-being, unlock potential and energy, enhance strengths and smooth out disadvantages.
In addition, amulets protect against diseases and bad influences, attract good luck, wealth and love.
It is extremely important to monitor the amulet - with any change in the owner’s condition, they can change their shade and even be destroyed. In addition, it is necessary to provide proper care to gems to extend their service life.
You can wear protective stones in the form of jewelry, for example, cufflinks, rings or pendants. But it is better to store it away from prying eyes, for example, in a purse or bag.
There are several ways to select a personal defender. The most common is depending on the sign, decade and celestial patron under which you were born.

Is the chosen stone suitable for the person? ↑
When choosing a talisman, carefully examine the appearance, since the quality of processing of the mineral can either enhance or destroy its properties. It is better not to purchase a talisman with sharp, unprocessed edges, as such angles create chaotic vibrations that are practically uncontrollable. Pay attention to the quality of the crystal itself: the purer and clearer the mineral, the better it will demonstrate its positive properties. It is not customary to place a stone without a frame on the palm; it is best to hold it with two fingers.
You can choose a talisman based on your zodiac sign, the meaning of your name, or simply buy any mineral you like. How to check if you are suitable for each other? This is not at all as difficult as it might seem at first glance, you just need to be patient. During the week, the future amulet must be placed under the pillow every night before going to bed at home. When you wake up, try to listen to how you feel and remember your dreams at night.
Stone amulets can be chosen in accordance with the zodiac sign, the meaning of the name or the season, but the best talisman will be the one that will please and suit a particular person. It is necessary to choose a mineral carefully, since a defective stone can harm its owner.
If you wake up in a good mood, full of strength and desire to conquer new heights, this is your mineral. Frustration, nightmares and poor health are clearly not in favor of such a talisman. Try to get rid of such a stone as quickly as possible, as it will not bring positive changes to your life. You can give it to a loved one; perhaps it will become an excellent talisman helper for him.
