Sagittarius is engaged on an eternal quest for meaning; a quest that is supported by the golden rays of Topaz. Topaz aids vision, broadens perspective, and lights up the path ahead. Its philanthropic urges are in tune with Sagittarius’s leader, beneficent Jupiter. Lapis Lazuli, the ‘Stone of Total Awareness,’ help Sagittarius to expand under Jupiter’s tutelage while avoiding excess. Azurite, too, can help Sagittarius. This stone promotes the relaxation required for meditation. It focuses inner vision and shuts off the questioning mind, creating a space for Sagittarius to simply be. This fiery sign tends to go all out toward a goal. Azurite helps prevent burnout, while Turquoise helps this fiery sign achieve serenity and peace.
