Since the beginning of times, the belief in the mysterious powers of jewels has
been well accepted by traditional psychics and astrologers all across the globe.
The legend has it that the twelve gems were first found on the breastplate worn
by the Jewish High Priests in the first century. It was then that the followers
recognized the stones and began to link them with the twelve apostles, assigning
a stone to each apostle based on the qualities and traits.
The logic behind Birthstones
According to the psychics, the logic behind birth stones can simply be derived
from the system of astrology. As per this tradition, the twelve signs of the
zodiac are ruled by one of the celestial bodies (planets) in the Solar system.
The psychics claim that each of these planets or celestial bodies can be further
influenced by elements or special shingles known as gemstones. Gemstones
designate to each month of the calendar year. Known more popularly by
astrologers as birthstones, these gems are supposed to bestow either unique
virtues or curing abilities onto those people that are born in the month linked
with that particular birthstone.
Significance of Birthstones
Analogous to any other entity connected with Astrology, gemstones or birthstones
command a certain amount of meaning to those who are on the lookout for truth
and romance.
