A Guide to Birthstones From Jewellery Websites: Part 4

Here's the latter part of the Guide to Birthstones'. It will look at how ancient civilizations understood that gems had physical properties, which were associated with characteristics. This guide will look at the characteristics assigned to the gems that fall under the autumn and winter months.

October's gemstone is the multi-coloured iridescent Opal, which shines all the colours of the rainbow. Opal or opalus' itself means precious stone of which it is with its unique iridescence. A great symbol of protection, healing, love, faithfulness and confidence, the Opal is an apt gift for a loved one, whether young or old. It is said that the opal meant in roman times a child as beautiful as love', generating this gem as a fitting symbol of love.

The alternative stone for October is the Pink Tourmaline a gem that seemingly has mystical properties due to its ability to attract light weight objects when statically charged by heat. Known as the stone of the muse, it has come to signify a gem that fuels the creative process and as one of hope.

November's gemstone, the Citrine, is a warm yellow that is as crisp gold as an autumn leaf. Unique and rare, this precious quartz like many of its family is a protector against evil thoughts and venom and is a healer, specifically of urinary infections. Thought to have originally been amethyst that had been intensely heated in the earth's crust, this yellow gemstone has gained the symbol of hope and strength.

November's alternative gemstone is the similarly yellow topaz a gem that was believed to be the glow cast by the sun god Ra by the Egyptians. It has come to symbolize a gift of friendship and is believed to strengthen the desire and aptitude for love (to be received and given).

Like a cloudless serene winter's day December's gemstone, blue topaz, glows a light but cool blue. Blue topaz's name originates from the Sanskrit word for fire tapas' as its colour suggested that it had cooling properties. Thus, it became to be used as a cooler for hot temperatures and feelings alike. Furthermore, it has been used to cure all kinds of ailments, from weak vision to asthma. Interestingly, blue topaz has come to become symbolic of love and fidelity perhaps a serene and cool love.

December's alternative stone is turquoise a gem that wards off and protects against all sorts of evil and ailments. It has come to represent over the centuries hope and friendship.

All of winter's gems project great warmth in love and friendship. Unlike prior months, they are not fiery and passionate, but serene and heartwarming.
