Birthstones and Their Meanings
Birthstones are a collection of precious gems that correlate to one's birth month. Traditionally, each gem holds a different meaning thought to hold true to its wearer. There are a few months where multiple birthstones symbolize various characteristics, giving its wearer multiple choices in the gem they choose. Each of these birthstones has a fascinating history and continues to bring health and wellness to its wearers from all parts of the world.
Birthstones are said to have healing properties. Wearing them may help release the blockages in the physical, mental and spiritual stage, bringing good luck, good health, and protection.
Since ancient times it is widely believed that wearing your birthstone is a symbol of wellness and good fortune.
What benefit does a person's birthstone have for them?
Early astrologers believed each gemstone brought healing powers or protection from evil to the people born in each respective month, which is why we still call them birthstones today.
Birthstones are apparently decided through a person's birth planet. They are said to channel positive energies when worn correctly, which could mean anything from warding off the evil eye and protecting the person or just attracting good luck.
