We introduced a new concept, the mutual conic, in order to give a complete classification of the group $ G $ generated by the images of two or three total sextactic points in the Jacobian $ J_{\mathcal{C}} $ of a smooth projective plane quartic curve $ \mathcal{C} $ (3-genus curves that are non-hyperelliptic), and we determined the geometric configuration of these points associated with each case. We supported the validity of the results with a variety of examples.
