Embody The Energy Of Capricorn Season With These 10 Crystals

When I think of hard-working and ambitious people, I immediately think of my Capricorn friends. It seems they are always working on some sort of project and achieving great success with it. Word of advice: If you’re working on a group project, put a Capricorn in charge. And, if you’re looking to emulate this energy, it might be time to introduce some crystals for Capricorn season into your life. 

While there are many moments I wish I was a Capricorn, mostly when I procrastinate and scroll the day away on TikTok, I do not envy their habit of overthinking every situation. We all cannot be perfect though, so while your Capricorn bestie motivates you to achieve your dreams, make sure you return the favor and talk them down and assure them they didn’t offend their boss in the elevator by saying “hey” instead of “hello.”

I don’t know if it’s the classic “new year, new me” energy that we get at this time of year, but I’m determined to make some changes and grow in this next zodiac house. So with Capricorn season less than two weeks away and the holidays waiting to be celebrated, here are the perfect crystals for stocking stuffers and secret Santa gifts to help you and all the Capricorns in your life level up this season.

Red Garnet 

There’s no better place to start than with the birthstone for Capricorns! This crystal will not only bring balance into your life but will help you lead with confidence in situations you aren’t always comfortable in. 2024 is for trying new things, so I know I’ll be wearing the red garnet when I’m nervous to try something I’ve never done before. 

Obsidian 

If you’re feeling like you need a little extra support and protection Obsidian, which is known as the guardian angel stone, will help you feel at ease. It helps ward off negative energy and can also help neutralize any negative encounters you have so you can still have a good day. 

Malachite

If you want to open up to new friendships and relationships in 2024, this is the stone for you. This crystal can be used to promote emotional protection while also encouraging the heart to open to new connections. So, if you feel like you often close yourself off, or find yourself pushing others away in fear of getting hurt, this crystal will raise your self-awareness and give you the strength to be brave in new relationships. 

Amethyst

The start of Capricorn season also takes us into the new year which is the perfect time to release negative energy, unlearn bad habits, and cut out toxic relationships. While all that is easier said than done, if you carry an Amethyst crystal around, it will become significantly easier as this crystal helps you connect to your spirituality and willpower.

Emerald

If you need some emotional healing, the emerald might be the perfect fit as it’s known for encouraging deep and profound joy for life and love. Not to mention it’s extremely classy and luxurious. Who doesn’t wanna be showing off a timeless fashion stable while also healing their inner child? 

Smoky Quartz 

If you’re an overthinker this might be the answer to your prayers. The smoky quartz helps clear your feelings to allow your brain to focus on the facts. It’ll help you cut away from old patterns that are prohibiting you from achieving your dreams and will give you a boost in emotional balance. 

Gold Tiger Eye 

Whether you’re about to shoot your shot with your crush, quit your job to start your own business, or are about to graduate and enter the real world, this crystal will not only protect you and give you a sense of security but also fuel you with determination and ambition. This stone is known to be grounding and can help you make tough decisions in periods of change… it’s the perfect graduation gift, if you ask me.

Aragonite

If this is a stressful season for you, this is the crystal you will want to have in your pocket, backpack, or on your desk at work. Aragonite is known for its grounding and healing energy. If you feel like you need a little extra boost this stone will give you mental and physical strength while also helping you recover quickly. 

Sodalite

If you’re nervous before a work meeting or big presentation, sodalite, also known as “the poet’s stone” can help boost your confidence and calm an anxious mind. It brings the brain and heart together to work in harmony so you can reach peak performance.

Sunstone

Capricorn season is in the dead of winter and we all know how the weather affects our mood so having a sunstone is a necessity. It’s known to help you see the positive in situations and help you find appreciation in the dull, gray, and mundane days. Take that seasonal depression!

We can all admit there are certain traits of a Capricorn that we all wish we had. While, unfortunately, we cannot buy ambition in a mystic shop, the good news is whether you’re a Capricorn or not, you can benefit from these crystals. Plus how cute and thoughtful of a gift is this?
