What is your Birthstone

12 Months Of Gemstones

It's a fact that every month of the year is also associated with a gemstone. More than that, every one of those gemstones also represents a particular facet of personality or life force. With their special "characters", gemstones are important for many people who look to them as a source of inspiration. Here are some examples of how jewelry is linked to different personalities and emotions.

Garnet - Garnet is the January birthstone and is a life force in business and in love. People who appreciate gemstone jewelry using garnet look to this stone for an increase in drive and energy in either personal or professional life. Its positive effects range over increases in stamina, inspiration and passion.

Amethyst - This is the birthstone for February and is reputed to have a calming energy. Clear thinking, emotional stability and increased wisdom are what people attribute to this gemstone and why they favor it in charm jewelry.

Aquamarine - This brings us now to the month of March, with the stone that has its origins in the ocean, with the waves of relaxation and creativity that radiate out from Aquamarine to its wearer.

Diamond - April's stone, diamond helps to increase lucidity in the mind and balance within the human body. Perhaps for their beauty and the rarity, they are also associated with more anniversaries than other gemstones.

Emerald - Another popular gemstone, emerald brings us to the month of May with its healing powers. This gemstone strengthens the body, helps it to repulse illness and heals physical and emotional wounds.

Pearl - June's birthstone is the pearl. Like emeralds in the month before, pearls have healing force. Gemstone jewelry with pearls acts to pacify and to keep potentially dangerous emotions, like anger, at bay.

Ruby - Both the ruby and its birth stone month of July are linked with the notion of warmness and higher levels of emotion. Wearing a ruby in gemstone jewelry heightens the sensation of the love of those around you.

Peridot - The birthstone for August, peridot is green like the emerald. It too has intrinsic healing powers, like the emerald, and like the pearl can act to ward off negative emotions.

Sapphire - September's gemstone is the blue sapphire, acting on your mind and boosting your mental power and capabilities. It is also popular for several anniversaries, so expect to see one or two of these as charm jewelry on charm bracelets as time goes by.

Opal - The opal brings us to the month of October and the opening of your mind to new opportunities. Creativity and entrepreneurial drive are sparked by these semiprecious stones.

Citrine - As the bringer of happiness and generator of creativity, citrine, November's birthstone, is also considered in many circles to have powers to repulse evil. A good stone to have in your selection of charm jewelry and charms for a bracelet.

Blue topaz - Blue topaz brings us to the end of the year with December. Much like the Sapphire, blue topaz works to boost your mental capabilities and enhances focused clear thinking. Its reputation is also for reducing worries.
