How do I know if I need to use a fortifying or a corrective stone?
Chinese zodiac fortifying crystal
A fortifying crystal is a gemstone whose Chinese elements are the same as a Chinese zodiac sign's intrinsic elements plus the element of his year of birth. For instance, if you are Water Rooster (born in 1952 or 2012), your fortifying elements are Metal (from the Rooster) and Water. If you choose to use a lucky stone whose Chinese element is Metal, Water or both, you will therefore enhance the characteristics of your Chinese zodiac sign. The risk here is for you to create an imbalance in the process. Indeed, Chinese astrology precepts always tend to favor and encourage balance in all aspects of life, using the 5 elements of Chinese cosmology as a method to achieve this goal. This philosophy is used in Chinese medicine, cuisine, martial arts, Feng Shui and of course for love match purposes.
Visit the lithotherapy guide to discover the fortifying crystals for each of the 12 zodiac signs of the Chinese calendar, which are listed in 7 categories, each corresponding to one of the 7 chakras.
Chinese zodiac corrective crystal
A corrective Crystal is a gemstone whose Chinese elements are used to compensate the missing or weak elements in someone's energetic chart of the 5 elements. By wearing a charm such as a stone bracelet or simply by carrying a specific stone in one's pocket, a person has the possibility to balance and correct whatever elements are missing in his / her astral chart. The action of a Chinese corrective stone is similar to wearing a color bracelet or clothe, always for the same purpose of recreating balance.
To find out which corrective elements you need according to your Chinese calendar date of birth, visit the personality horoscope of your Chinese zodiac sign via the Chinese Horoscope category of the website. It displays a specific lucky stone and essential oil chosen for each of the five types of Chinese animal (ie. Wood Dragon, Fire Dragon, Earth Dragon, Metal Dragon and Water Dragon) in order to help them regain energetic balance in their life.
