BIRTHSTONES
Birthstones are believed to amplify celestial energies and ground them. The concept of birthstones has been around since biblical times and there are traditional, historic crystal affinities for each sign of the zodiac - some of these come from the month your were born and some are from the planets connected to the sign of the zodiac you were born under.
As new crystals are discovered, they are assigned to a sign, so this is a growing list of birth-associated crystals.
Here you can find which stones relate to which birth month - perfect when planning gifts for family and friends.
