What are the Saturn stones, and what magical properties do they have. Several internet sources will give you different information. But if you want to know the exact answer, you need to know what planet or planets rule a particular stone.

Let's find it out.

What Stones Correspond to Saturn?

All Saturn stones have similar features. For example, they share identical color, optical properties, composition, and physical structure. Here is an example of purely Jupiter stones:

  • Galena

  • Chiastolite
  • Smoky quartz,
  • Morion
  • Hawkeye

Consider, for example, galena. It is a pure stone of Saturn.

  • It's dark and dim
  • It contains lead (more specifically, it is lead sulfide),
  • The stone is heavy
  • It is highly crystalline. On impact, it breaks into perfectly shaped cubes.

All this is the pure nature of Saturn.

Stone can correspond to several planets, connected by the principles of sympathy and antipathy. Such a gemstone has mixed physical attributes.

Consider, for example, jaspilite.

The stone represents streaks of black and brown colors - a mixture of Mars and Saturn. In addition, it has a characteristic metallic luster, which occurs in the stones of Mars. Eventually, the principle of sympathy connects Mars and Saturn.

More examples of Saturnian stones of diverse nature:

  • Sapphire (Jupiter in color and Saturn in hardness, allies in antipathy)
  • Antimonite, Serdonix (Saturn and Mars, antipathy allies)

For example, take sapphire. It shares the nature of Saturn and Jupiter. Therefore search Google for "Saturn in astrology" and "Jupiter in astrology." You will know what sapphire is accountable for.

It is More Than Just an Individual Saturn Stone
