Well, this is a very early stage compilation of the designs I'm working on for a zodiac set. At the center of each one is a stone associated with the sign, and within the layers I've added the symbol for the sign, the constellation, and the alchemical symbol for the element associated with it. I'm debating adding the name for the sign in some sort of pretty text in the outer circle or square, but I'm not sure yet. I also haven't decided whether I want the layers to be the same with just a sign appropriate color change, or if I want to do something different for each one.

I'll list the stones I chose below and the primary color(s) I'll be using for each sign. In the research I did for this, there's a lot of variance on what "the stone" for each sign is and of course the symbols vary slightly in appearance depending on what resource you look at. In general I went with a stone that I liked and felt like I could decently represent and with a symbol that I liked for reference, so of course, there may be some differences from what you may have learned is associated with a specific sign, but I'm not especially well read in that area, so I had to go on pure (time constrained) research.

Signs are listed in order from left to right, top to bottom.

* Capricorn: Lapis Lazuli, dark blue and brown
* Aquarius: Turquoise, turquoise/teal
* Pisces: Aquamarine, sea-green
* Aries: Jasper, red
* Taurus: Emerald, green
* Gemini: Citrine, yellow
* Cancer: Moonstone, silver and violet
* Leo: Onyx, orange and black/grays
* Virgo: Peridot, green
* Libra: Sapphire, dark blue
* Scorpio: Ruby, red
* Sagittarius: Amethyst, purple

(Some of the colors may change as the designs develop.)
