The head of the solar system, the Sun, passes through 12 different zodiac signs during the course of one calendar year. All these signs are connected with all the planets, which are in turn connected with birthstones. This procedure is based on the western Astrology and based on the movement of the Sun.
The person born between the 21st of any month to the 20th of the next month will be under the influence of one zodiac sign. From the 21st to the 28th of any month the influence of the new zodiac sign will be very less because the effect of the previous zodiac sign will still be there. This week is the overlapping time of two zodiac signs, and is known as the `cusp'. After the 28th day of any month the new zodiac sign will start giving a strong influence on the person.
Below, we are giving you one example of a zodiac sign.
[1] Capricorn (December - January):
People born between December 21st and January 20th are born under the zodiac sign Capricorn. The lord of this sign is Saturn.
Capricorns normally appear cold as far as their feelings are concerned, but in fact they are very warm-hearted people. Most of the time they think for the betterment and the comforts of their family and their life, and work very hard to achieve this.
Normally, they do not want to interfere in the lives of others, and similarly never accept anyone's interference in their own life.
They are very short tempered, aggressive fighters, and react quickly and hotly to situations. Due to this characteristic others generally misunderstand them. Sometimes they worry unnecessarily and spoil their health due to this. Their home, family life and work place are often troubled.
These people sometimes end up generating more money for others than themselves, whether they like it or not.
Birthstones: The Zodiac sign Capricorn represents the planet Saturn. To boost the strength of Saturn, Capricorns have to wear a Sapphire next to their skin.
Some semi precious birthstones for Capricorns are Amethyst, Pearl and Moonstone. Some astrologers strongly believe that Garnet is also an appropriate stone for the people who have been born in the sign of Capricorn. If the person is working as an executive then this Garnet is the perfect gem for them.
