And Astrology Sign
KM Crystal Shop
The idea of birthstones have their origins from centuries ago. Based on the first high priest Aron who wore a breastplate adorn with 12 gemstones. These stones were said to have special powers. It wasn’t until 500 years later that the stones were associated with astrological signs. Finally the list was modified by the association of jewelers to standardize the list of gemstones in the 1900’s. Hence the modern list was created.
Our list we have compiled is based on the traditional and modern list of gemstones based on birth month and astrological sign. However astrological signs start and end on different months. So we have also included alternative gemstones for your astrological sign.
These gemstones are said to enhance your energy, increase luck, and synchronicity. The alternate list of gemstones are based on your astrological sign. The alternate stones will compliment your energy based on your sign. Or will increase the attribute your sign needs more of. So here is the lists of “crystals” or gemstones associated with your birth month and/or astrological sign. This is a great way for you to choose which crystals to buy to wear as jewelry or carry with you. We recommend you have these gemstones in your home space to enhance and amplify your energy.
