Series: In the Stars

Obverse

(en) The obverse of Capricorn features a ring naming all 12 signs of the zodiac and their symbols. The symbol for Capricorn adorns the centre in large letters. At the edge of the circle, a pink rose quartz, which stands for the constellation Capricorn, shines in all its beauty. Round and smoothly cut, it gets its shine from the natural structure of the stone.

Comments

(en)

The first coin in the unique In the Stars series combines the zodiac sign Capricorn and the rose quartz, which work together to help create harmony both with yourself and others.

 

Running from 22 December to 20 January and ruled by the planet Saturn, Capricorn is an earth sign and those born under it are considered disciplined, down-to-earth and reliable in both professional and private relationships. In short, they are loyal. In physical astrology, Capricorn is associated with the knees and thus stands for both steadfastness and flexibility.

 

The astrological sign of Capricorn can be traced back to the Babylonians in the 7th century BC, when the astronomical compendium known as MUL.APIN documented the movements of the heavenly bodies. The Babylonians' astrological practice of linking the movements of the heavenly bodies with fateful events on earth is based on this work.

 

The semi-precious stone rose quartz, from the quartz family, formed over millions of years, was regarded by the ancient Egyptians as a symbol of love and beauty. In esotericism, the “stone of love” is believed to create harmony.
