What's in your Zodiac gemstone
In the world of gemstones, birthstones are incredibly popular. They are a way of forming a personal connection to jewelry being worn. We know that birthstones are associated to each month of the year, but did you know there is also a list of gemstones that connect to zodiac signs? Let’s talk about zodiac gemstones.
Zodiac gemstones — also known as zodiac birthstones or astrological birthstones — are stones connected to the zodiac sign you were born under, such as Aquarius, Capricorn, Scorpio, etc. Some believe these gemstones draw on the energy of their particular sign, which brings the wearer luck, vibrancy, and life. Others simply believe them to be beautiful accents to add to zodiac-themed jewelry.
