About this piece
A Scorpio (Vrishchik Rashi) bracelet is a stretch band of obsidian and garnet beads, two stones that Vedic and crystal tradition pair with Mars, the ruler of Scorpio. Obsidian is a dark volcanic glass and garnet a deep red stone, both associated with courage, grounding and strength. It is traditionally worn by those born under Scorpio for confidence and emotional resilience.
Specifications
How to wear
Wear it on the right wrist, the hand traditionally linked with Mars. Tuesday (Mangalvar), the day of Mars, is the customary day to begin. Remove it before bathing, swimming or applying perfume. Cleanse it with incense smoke or by resting it overnight on a selenite plate.
Frequently asked
Which hand should a Scorpio bracelet be worn on?
Wear it on the right wrist, the hand traditionally linked with Mars, and begin on a Tuesday if you follow the custom.
How can I tell real garnet from a fake one?
Real garnet shows a deep, rich red that looks almost wine-dark in light. Glass copies look brighter and more uniform.
Who should wear a Scorpio bracelet?
It is traditionally chosen by those born under Scorpio, and it is unisex, so anyone drawn to its meaning can wear it.
Does it get wet, and how should I care for it?
Remove it before bathing, swimming or applying perfume, as water and chemicals can dull the surface. Wipe it with a soft cloth after wear.
How to verify this is genuine
Obsidian is volcanic glass — which makes 'is it glass?' the wrong question. It IS glass, formed naturally, and the test is for manufactured glass versus volcanic.
- 01Conchoidal fracture
Any chip on natural obsidian shows a curved, shell-like fracture surface. Look at the drill hole under a 10× loupe — natural obsidian shows this curvature; moulded glass shows a clean machined edge.
- 02Inclusions
Natural obsidian often contains faint gas bubbles, snowflake cristobalite or a subtle sheen. A perfectly uniform, flawless black sphere is likelier moulded glass.
- 03Hardness
Mohs 5–5.5 — softer than quartz. It scratches more easily than most beads, which is normal, not a defect.
Care note — Because obsidian is glass, it chips on impact. Remove before manual work and store it away from harder beads.
