Birthstones & Zodiac Gemstones
Most people know that there is a particular gemstone associated with the month of their birth, but did you know that the signs of our zodiac have also long been linked to semi precious gemstones? Each sign, as well as some birth months, have several possible associated gemstones, which is why stones are often referred to as “having an affinity with”, rather than being specific to a particular month or zodiac sign.
Below, I have listed the Monthly Birthstones. For more on astrological birthstones, see Zodiac Birthstone Information. The associated links will take you to more information about the healing properties contained in each particular gemstone.
Of course, you don’t have to stick with your own birthstone. If something else “feels” good, go with it!
If you are looking for something in particular, but can't see it on any of these pages, please contact me. I am more than happy to create something especially for you. Also see Healing Gifts for more birthstone ideas.
