Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Gemstone: Ruby
How lucky for the Capricorn that it gets what is generally considered the most powerful of all gemstones. The ruby is a stone of love—which suits Capricorn’s flirtatious yet careful nature—and vitality, restoring the energy and strength levels of the hardworking earth sign. It also enhances confidence, courage, and mental well-being, and can counter the Capricorn’s melancholic disposition. Wear the stone on your left hand to receive the optimal benefits of the stone and place it under your pillow for good sleep. But proceed with caution if you have a hypersensitive nature as you might be discomforted by the stone’s strong energy.
