Summer Birthstones
Did you know that if you were born during the summer months, you are actually more likely to be a positive person?
That's right, by being born in the warmer months of the year, you may be happier than your friends who have winter birthdays.
So it's no surprise that summer birthstones offer a lot of positive elements and properties to offer.
June Birthstone
If you are born in June, you are lucky enough to have three different stones to choose from.
The pearl is known as the month's primary gemstone. Pearls are associated with elegance. Then you also have the moonstone and alexandrite. Those are both symbols of good fortune.
Put together elegance and good fortune and you have a winning combination.
July Birthstone
July is known for heat waves and fireworks making red rubies the perfect birthstone for this summer month.
This gem represents many positive traits such as health, love, success, wealth, and wisdom. Rubies are also considered the stone of leadership. Those are some pretty powerful traits for one gem to have.
Most people think you should save rubies for special occasions. We like to think you should wear them more often than that.
In fact, try wearing one on your next date and see if any extra passions ignite.
August Birthstone
August has two birthstones: The peridot and sardonyx.
Peridot forms deep within the earth and is brought to the surface through volcanic eruptions. This represents the tears of many gods and is, therefore, a very precious stone.
Sardonyx is a form of onyx and has a connection to courage and victory. Try putting these two stones near your front door to ward off any negative energy.
September Birthstone
If you're born in September, your birthstone is the sapphire. Sapphires are known to keep you away from evil and harm while symbolizing heaven and positive energy.
Sapphires are most commonly worn as rings, but we love the idea of wearing them as a necklace to keep their protective energies close to your heart.
