Folklore describes it as a stone that encourages honest speech and helps the wearer voice true thoughts.

Zodiac & Chakra

Linked with Sagittarius, turquoise is said to match the sign’s adventurous, truthful nature. It is traditionally associated with the Throat Chakra, where it is believed to open the voice for sincere expression and promote calm in stressful moments.

Care

Keep turquoise away from direct sunlight and harsh chemicals. Clean it gently with a soft, damp cloth; avoid ultrasonic cleaners. Recharge its energy by laying it on dry rice or beside neutral stones for a short period.
