Vitality
Two black stones mean that the Element for the year controls the natal Element. This is a special reminder that the sphere of life and vitality requires attention, awareness, and harmonization. Black stones bring danger and require you to be prudent. Beware of accidents. Avoid extreme situations. Try to lead an unhurried, even lifestyle, because the energy of life goes „with interruptions and delays.“ Tibetans are advised to compensate for black stones by taking care of the lives of other creatures, giving alms. Hunting and fishing should be completely excluded from your to-do list. What’s good is to save living creatures, for example, to buy a fisherman's catch and release the fish back into the water. Tibetans believe that thus you will prolong and protect your own life. The Tibetans also recite mantras for the long life (you can pick up a similar practice by your religion). Do not forget that all life-affirming rituals, including, for example, giving up fishing, should be done with full awareness of why you are doing it. This is the inner magic work.

But do not overdo it, fit all changes harmoniously into your life.
Strength
Three white stones mean that the Element for the year produces your natal Element. Your power, with which you achieve goals and financial prosperity, will increase, getting nourishment from the energy of the year.
