Birthstones

  Birthstones are stones that are associated with each month.  They can be precious stones such as the Diamond or semi precious such as the Moonstone.

They are considered lucky for their particular month and their healing powers are said to be heightened at that time. It is said that you will get the greatest benefit from wearing the stone in the month to which it is associated . For example you would get the most benefit from wearing Aquamarine if you wear it in March. Here are the modern and traditional birthstones
