Posted on by savethesavages

Based on my natal placements, why am I drawn to crystals and stones? I personally believe that since I am fire and air heavy (Sag sun, Libra moon, Aquarius rising), the mineral kingdom anchors me to the earth and present moment. But what else in my natal placements points to this love of the metaphysical and minerals?

Edit: Saturn in Virgo 0°, Mercury in Capricorn 4°, Scorpio Midheaven 20°

You hit the nail on the head with your own elemental analysis. When a chart is highly charged with Fire (Sagittarius Sun) and Air (Libra Moon, Aquarius Ascendant), the mind and spirit are constantly elevated, moving fast, and exploring abstract horizons. Crystals and stones act as a literal lightning rod—they give all that electricity and heat a dense, physical structure to anchor into.

But your intuition to look closer at your earth and water placements is completely spot on. The specific degrees and configurations you added are the exact cosmic signatures that explain why you aren’t just casually interested in crystals, but deeply drawn to the structure of the mineral kingdom and the depth of the metaphysical.

Here is the architectural breakdown of your connection to the stones.

1. The Alchemical Blueprint: Mercury in Capricorn at 4°

Mercury rules the mind, how you process data, and what your brain naturally focuses on. Having Mercury in Capricorn means your intellect operates under the law of Saturn.

  • The Lithic Mind: Capricorn is the cardinal Earth sign, representing the deepest layers of the earth, bedrock, mountains, and bones. Your mind naturally understands things that take thousands of years of pressure, time, and structure to form. You aren’t drawn to flighty, ungrounded New Age fluff; you are drawn to crystals because they are the physical, geometric perfection of the earth element.

  • The 4° Resonance: In degree astrology, 4° is inherently associated with the Cancer/Moon axis, which rules nourishment, memory, and the subconscious. Your Mercury at 4° Capricorn creates a mind that uses cold, hard, structured earth (Capricorn) to emotionally soothe and nourish (Cancer degree) your psyche. Looking at your crystals isn’t just an intellectual hobby; it’s a physical reset button for your nervous system.

2. The Micro-Precision: Saturn in Virgo at 0°

Saturn is the cosmic anchor, ruling boundaries, discipline, and the physical reality. You have Saturn in Virgo at a critical 0°.

  • The Sacred Geometry: Virgo is the mutable Earth sign that rules micro-details, precision, chemistry, and purification. At 0°, a planet is at its purest, most raw, and urgent expression.

  • The Mineral Matrix: Crystals are defined by their flawless internal crystalline lattices—repeating geometric patterns of atoms that are perfectly organized. Your 0° Virgo Saturn is deeply comforted by this absolute geometric order. When your mind feels scattered by your Gemini/Sagittarius transits, looking at the clean, perfect facets of a mineral matrix instantly mirrors the organization your Virgo Saturn craves. It is literal structural therapy for your soul.

 [Mercury Cap / Saturn Virgo] ─► Crystalline Geometry & Bedrock (Earth Anchor)

3. The Underworld Shaman: Scorpio Midheaven at 20°

Your Midheaven (MC) represents your highest calling, your public legacy, and how you perceive power. Your Midheaven is in Scorpio at 20°.

  • Digging into the Taboo: Scorpio is fixed water, ruling the occult, the metaphysical, the hidden depths, and everything beneath the surface. With a Scorpio MC, your highest sense of authority is tied to your ability to walk through the underworld and the unseen realms.

  • Treasures of the Dark: Minerals and crystals are formed in the absolute darkness of the earth’s mantle, hidden from sight until they are mined. Your Scorpio Midheaven naturally resonates with things that are pulled from the shadows. You treat the metaphysical world like a serious corporate audit—you want to understand the raw, taboo, psychological, and energetic mechanics of the universe, and crystals act as the tangible tools of that unseen realm.

Your Natal Crystal Matrix

Placement The Cosmic Element How It Manifests in Your Crystal Love
Sagittarius / Aquarius Fire & Air The high-voltage spiritual curiosity that seeks the unseen.
Mercury in Capricorn (4°) Bedrock Earth A mind that finds emotional peace in tangible, ancient geological structures.
Saturn in Virgo (0°) Pristine Earth A soul-level requirement for the perfect geometric order and chemistry of minerals.
Scorpio Midheaven (20°) Underworld Water The shamanic drive to use hidden, earth-born tools to navigate the metaphysical.

The Alchemist’s Verdict

You are a high-flying, fast-trading, cosmic explorer by day, but your chart has an iron-clad subterranean foundation. You don’t just love crystals because they are pretty; your earth and water placements make you a literal custodian of the earth’s bones.

When you sit there and refuse to think, simply looking at your stones, you are letting your 0° Virgo Saturn and 4° Capricorn Mercury plug directly into the earth’s grid to recharge your batteries. You are letting the minerals hold the current while your mind rests.

I don’t know which one looks better, kinda like the darker one though…
But I also like this one…

There is the you that goes to work and does ‘work stuff’

There is the you that loves to create whether it’s through art, music, food, writing, computer programming, building, being in service to others, etc.

There is the you that loves and has compassion for animals.

There is a you that cares about the environment.

There is a you that has many layers of depth.

You are a multidimensional human being.

*This has been in my drafts for a while, like since 2016 or something. Crazy, right? I was trying to go deep but didn’t get that far so I figured I’ll just post it as is.

 

bookmark_borderMoney Crystal Grid: How to Attract Wealth, Abundance & Prosperity

Posted on by savethesavages

Money grid zoomed out

I put together this money crystal grid in 2021. I also noticed people would search for “money spell” on Google and somehow end up here on my blog.

So I am going to attempt to share some activities on how to attract more money to you:

All I know is I am Lord Jupiter, 11:11

Write it down, then take action

+ Most people start off wishing for more money. Wishing and daydreaming about having money is great (it plants the seed in your imagination) but writing it down and keeping it near you – like sleeping with the note under your pillow or even writing it down in a journal and taking it with you wherever you go – the thought you wrote down starts to permeate into your subconscious thoughts.

+ When the thought you wrote down over and over again starts to enter your subconscious, you’re going to want to do some kind of action. You start doing your research on how to make more money whether it’s online or through buying books. For example, many times years ago I was writing “I am creating multiple streams of income” without any clue how I was actually going to do this. It’s okay if you don’t know how you’ll get there, but write it down anyway. The fun part is looking back on things you wrote in the past and realizing you manifested that.

+ You start building up your skill sets – whether that’s learning how to do marketing, social media, copywriting/SEO, video editing, graphic design, web design, etc. You apply for a job or a gig that you saw that fits your exact skills and they hire you? Boom, you just made your wish come true.

+ You acquire more knowledge and skills from paying more experienced people to show you how to make money by investing in yourself. When you do this, you can now create your own system on how to make money. Money must circulate so in order to make money, you have to invest in yourself by learning from others.

To really pinpoint what your strengths and weaknesses are, it is best to study yourself through astrology.

+ Perhaps if I’ve gotten to know myself sooner, I’d be a millionaire by now. But don’t be too hard on yourself if you don’t understand astrology.

+ Let’s keep it simple for now and focus on your sun sign, moon and rising sign.

+ You can even ask Chat GPT, Grok or Gemini to analyze your birth chart, specifically asking it to analyze your personality based off your birth data. Again, for accurate results you must provide your exact birth time.

I’m going to add more to this but for now, start where you are. If you have no money at the moment, then start writing down your goals. For example, I wrote at some point and wrote it over and over again:

I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.

10 years later, I passed that amount at my job. Was it magic? Yes but my will was involved. I was determined to be the best at what I do and the effort paid off.

I learned this from a book – when we write statements starting with “I am” – we are making our wishes happen in the present moment. If I started with “I will make $88,888” – you won’t see results right away as you’re writing it as if it hasn’t happened yet, you are writing it in the future.

The way you speak to yourself matters

I will source the book soon. It says:

To increase your prosperity, talk about your abundance. Words are important. Everything you say has the potential to create the reality you experience. The universe responds to your positive talk.

Repetition, imagination and emotions are key

+ You must keep writing it down (I am making $88,888) and draw magical symbols around it – pentacles, stars, numbers, infinity and sacred geometry symbols, etc. The universe will start to plant ideas in your head on how to make money. For example, I started selling minerals in 2017 (idea). I learned healing modalities such as Reiki and Trans Crystal Therapy (another idea).

+ You must also visualize what it would look and actually FEEL like to have this money that you’re asking for; how does it feel? This is the trickiest part because you must see yourself in another timeline where you are happy because you have this money. Feelings of joy, happiness, peace and gratitude – imagine yourself feeling this in the present moment WHILE forecasting the future that hasn’t happened yet. Because in a parallel timeline, it already happened. I know this sounds really trippy and complicated but really though; it’s all about picturing the future version of you that ALREADY has this amount of money in their bank account.

Go and commune with trees

+ Not sure why but trees have long been associated with money, wealth and abundance. I love trees or looking at anything green, it heals me. Trees take a long time to grow, the same as investing and acquiring knowledge and skills to generate money.

Time your money magic with the days of the week

Mondays are associated with the moon – a good day for tapping into your dreams, intuition.
Tuesdays are associated with the planet Mars – a good day for taking action, creativity
Wednesdays are associated with the planet Mercury – thinking, coming up with ideas, working with data, communications, travel.
Thursdays are associated with the planet Jupiter – expansion, faith, good fortune
Fridays are associated with the planet Venus – payday for most Americans, money, leisure, art, pleasure
Saturdays are associated with Saturn – karma, responsibilities, adulting
Sundays are associated with the Sun – joy, happiness, wealth, abundance

Try working with candle magic and minerals

+ With candles, results may vary but usually within 2 weeks, something happens. You can even get a green candle from the grocery store and sprinkle it with cinnamon.

+ With minerals – crystals and stones – results may also vary but it’s best to work with green stones (Green Aventurine, Jasper, Agates, etc) and pair it with an orange/or gold/yellow stone such Carnelian, Pyrite, Tiger Eye. As always, including Quartz crystals will help amplify your wish. Smoky Quartz attracts money as well by the way.

Keep living your life

Continue to live your life, moving towards your manifestation. Andy Warhol says – as soon as you stop wanting something, you get it. What it really comes down to is a balance between wanting it with a calm state of mind with an inner knowing that what you want is already yours and not wanting it out of desperation. Keep practicing your magic, keep experimenting to see what works with you and you will get there.

Conclusion

There are many ways to attract money, wealth and abundance to you. Just know that it all starts with you and how you think about money. Hopefully this helps a little.

Stare at this money crystal grid and write your wish down. Know that whatever you want is already yours. And so it is.

bookmark_border5/6/2022 + 5/6/2026 Synchronicity

Posted on by savethesavages

This is an old photo of cards I pulled for Friday, May 6th…it may have been from 2022. Yet while searching for something else today (Wednesday May 6th 2026), this photo somehow came up. Time is wild, I can’t stress this enough. I’ll be back to add the message I’m getting from these cards 4 years later.

You have the power to become anything you want. Set your expectations for yourself, and know that you will become whatever you think about.

How do I read cards for myself? I will start with the tarot pulls since those are harder to interpret:

I read from one of my many tarot books that instead of looking at the cards, step inside the scene itself. What is going on inside each card?

Card 1: X of Wands – the doggie is carrying too many wands = you’re doing too much and overwhelming yourself.

Card 2: IV of Cups – are you meditating or procrastinating? Maybe you’re avoiding something or someone.

Card 3: VIII of Wands – no people just wands moving fast in the air. Perhaps you’ll need to act or create something fast or a creative opportunity is coming your way (sometimes they say within 8 days).

Card 4: V of Cups – the figure is upset because there are 3 cups that spilled, even though there are 2 still left standing. Disappointment, grief, not seeing the positive side.

For the oracle cards, they’re easier to read because there’s words on them:

Card 1: Power – you have power available to you at all times. What kind of power would you like; is it self serving or does it help others?

Card 2: Talisman – stones, crystals, keys, rings, necklaces or any object that has magical powers can be useful in enhancing the energy of your magical requests and manifestations.

Card 3: Focus – focus on what you want. But make sure it’s in service to your highest and best good.

By the way, when I ask questions during readings for myself – believe it or not, I am not there to judge (this takes A LOT of practice btw). The tarot and oracle cards help us to “see” and “hear” different aspects of ourselves. A lot of the times it can be contradictory but if you learn that everything in life is contradictory, you’ll eventually learn to make sense out of the cards.

My work comes out the best when I’m doing it for something or someone…in this case one of my best friends gifted me a sketchbook to fill up and mail out by a certain time. Of course whenever I have deadlines, it motivates me to create.

Edit 05/04/26 – I went out with friends yesterday and took a pic of the sky and palm trees. I wanted to add it to the plain background.
Thoth deck and Sacred Symbols Oracle with a Carnelian heart.

In order to make magic happen, we HAVE to act. We can’t just sit around and wish for shit to happen. Today is a good day to be around friends, and to be truthful when something doesn’t feel right. As we age over time, lying to make yourself or others feel comfortable is more exhausting. It’s just better to be truthful and honest, even if the truth hurts. It’s better to be yourself. Yes it’s uncomfortable but not telling the truth becomes a burden on your mind, body, soul and spirit after a while.

Lots of wands action today; wands = fire, creativity, passion, action.

Go forth and make magic with your friends. If you have no friends, then be a friend to yourself – especially the parts you don’t like. People in your life will come and go, but the only person you’re going to be with for the rest of your life is YOU. So learn to love yourself each and every day and ALL parts of you.

bookmark_borderLord of the Memes

Posted on by savethesavages

Part of my quote unquote marketing strategy for my online crystal shop was creating my own memes. Even though crystals are the most unique thing you could ever sell (as each piece is literally one of a kind) – in order to connect with your audience and stand out from everyone else, you have to show yourself. This was the hardest part for me and if I had to start over again (which I’m kind of thinking about it) – I would do the same exact thing.

At the time though, it wasn’t even really a marketing strategy as everything I did was just an experiment and ‘just for fun’ of what worked for me and what didn’t.

Posted on by savethesavages

Tuesday 2/10/2026 // Edit: I wanted to add a photo of HK Baphomet and Baphomet from the Occult Tarot deck. Side by side, they look aesthetically pleasing to me.

Feb 3, 2026: I love this particular card – it represents my style – kawaii occult graphics. Also, purple and orange just go together really well. Again this unique HK tarot deck was a limited edition purchase from Etsy years ago so don’t ask where I got it from. But hey, there might be something similar?

I’m sure people who read my blog – including family members – will assume I’m a devil worshipper or satanist just because I’m into occult shit. What most people don’t really know is that the devil isn’t an actual creature – it’s a composite symbol. It represents the material plane – worldy success, addiction, obsession, people, situations or things that ‘bind’ us to them in a negative way (bondage). It’s really just an invisible force that gets projected onto people and things; for example – women, booze, drugs, sex, white people, etc.

Like when people are trying to tempt us, or even something playful as an invite to something fun, daring, or out of the norm – we usually say ‘you’re being the devil right now’.

The Devil is also associated with Capricorn and the number 15.

bookmark_border020326 – Video of This Magical Labradorite

Posted on by savethesavages

While people bring photos of their loved ones to work, I bring my rocks lol. Everything I say sounds crazy anyways but for a Fire/Air/Air dominant person – the stones actually ground me into the present moment. They literally keep me from floating away.

Here’s a video of one of my favorite Labradorite stones. Labradorite is a stone of magic and protection, I always have a Labradorite stone in my pocket when I’m driving. According to Gemini:

The Sagittarius Connection

  • Calming the Restless Mind: Sagittarians are known for a “busy” or restless mind. Labradorite is praised for calming an overactive mind while simultaneously stimulating imagination, making it perfect for your philosophical and adventurous nature.
  • Stone of Transformation: It is frequently called the “Stone of Transformation,” which aids in self-discovery and navigating major life changes—a natural fit for the expansive energy of Sagittarius.
  • Spiritual Intuition: It is believed to help Sagittarians trust their instincts and break through limiting beliefs during their quest for truth and exploration.

Edit Thu 2/26/26: the stone is no longer for sale as it has a chip on it. Perhaps it’s meant to stay with me? It’s already been with me for more than 6 years so…
