The Navajo kept carvings of horses and sheep in Turquoise to guard against negative magic.\u00a0 The bright blue color of Turquoise is said to change to warn of negativity in someone else, the stone may even break.\u00a0 The color can fade when the bearer is threatened with danger, illness, or if under too much stress.
