Astro-inspired jewelry has grown in popularity in recent years. These pieces can be seen as modern talismans that connect us to our true selves, but also to the cosmos.
Keep reading to learn more about the history of talismans and how you can use jewelry to evoke more magic in your everyday life.
What is a talisman?
A talisman is often used as a tool for manifestation or warding off bad energy. Talismans are said to possess certain qualities and powers to give the wearer certain impulses in their daily life.
Talismans have been used for centuries by a variety of cultures to ward off evil spirits, attract good luck, or help the wearer achieve certain ambitions. Wearing talismans can help you create the energy you need to manifest certain things in your life, such as power, wealth, love or success.
These jewelry usually have a certain meaning for the wearer and are usually made of metals in combination with crystals, gemstones, bones, leather, flowers or stones.
Although we still used jewelry to decorate ourselves, the practice of wearing talismans dates back to ancient times. There is evidence that talismans were worn in ancient Egyptian times and were made of precious stones and gold.
Talismans are still used as symbols for goals we want to achieve in our lives. Wearing a talisman can serve as a reminder of what you want, or give you a boost of confidence to help you achieve your dreams.
This jewelry can also be a sign of who you are as an individual. In short, what sets you apart from everyone else? I suspect this is why we are seeing a rise in astro-inspired jewelry. It’s a simple way to show others who we are as individuals.
My favorite Astro-inspired jewelry has to be called this brand Ephemeris. It is a personalized jewelry company that uses your birth chart as a talisman. How cool is that?
Why do people want astro-inspired jewelry?
There has certainly been a boom in astrology in the last few years. More than ever, people want to find out who they are and why they are the way they are. And this is where astrology comes into play.
This esoteric art has been around for centuries and has always played a central role for those who dare to listen. But it is honestly one of the best tools for understanding and accepting yourself.
The further you delve into astrology, the more you understand that it is a complex art and that everyone on Earth is interested in much more than one of the twelve signs. Birth charts are complicated and full of layers, just like people.
Astrology shows how we are all unique individuals, and no two birth charts will ever be the same. No wonder people want to adorn themselves with jewelry that represents just that.
How do you choose a Talisman jewelry?
When choosing a talisman to wear to help you achieve a specific goal, it is good to know What that goal is. Do you want to attract love and romance? Or would you like to manifest more money and success in your life? Knowing what you want makes it a lot easier to choose the right piece.
You can then decide which type of jewelry you are most comfortable wearing. Are you someone who likes to wear rings? Chains? Bracelets? Earrings? I have many talismans, but the one thing I never take off is an antique gold ring with a silver shooting star.
This ring reminds me of my love of astrology and the esoteric. I also bought it after my father passed away, as a daily reminder of him. And finally, this ring fills me with hope and reminds me to be optimistic and believe in my dreams.
When choosing a talisman, think about what you want to evoke in your life. If you are looking for love, choosing a piece of jewelry with rose quartz can support you. If you want more creativity, you might want to go for something with citrine.
Understanding which crystals and metals are associated with which feeling or state of being. You can also use symbols that mean something to you, such as a heart for love, an eye for intuition or a star for hope and success.
Perhaps there is a specific Tarot card that you strongly identify with and you want to evoke its qualities in your life. The brand Sorellina makes really cool Tarot inspired jewelry. As you can see, the possibilities are truly endless.
How to summon magic into your talisman
Once you’ve chosen the perfect piece of jewelry, it’s time to give it a magical boost and make it even more special. Before using your talisman it is good to charge and clean it. The reason is that it probably picked up some other energy before it came into your possession.
You can clean your jewelry in any way you like, such as placing it in the moonlight on a full moon evening, smudging it with a smoking stick, or burying it in the soil for a few hours.
Then, if you want to summon your magic into your talisman, you need to make an intention about what you want to manifest when you wear this piece of jewelry. Here are the steps you need to take:
- Cleanse your talisman in a way that feels comfortable to you

- Place your jewelry over your heart space and focus on your intention
- Send this energy to your jewelry, you can easily do this through visualization
- You’ll know when it’s done
- Send a prayer of gratitude to the Universe for supporting you in achieving your desire
Invoking your talisman really is that simple. You can take some time every day to think about what you want to manifest or simply be grateful when you wear this piece of jewelry.
Now all you have to do is wear or carry your talisman with you whenever you know you need an extra boost to your energy. Just remember that when you are not wearing it, keep it in a sacred place so that it does not absorb unwanted negative energy.
Go ahead and trust that this piece of jewelry will give you exactly what you need to achieve your goals in life. Think of it as that extra armor you wear every day to help you get closer to your dreams and desires. But most importantly, have faith in yourself to make it happen…
