The Birthstones Guide - Finding Your Personal Gem

It is important to find the right gemstone and connection to ensure that one truly benefits from the power of gems. Often, the first question for those new to gemstones is: How do I know which gemstone is suitable for me?

The following list is suitable for those who want a quick reference as to which gemstones are suitable for themselves. Each of the twelve signs of the zodiac has traditional crystal affinities, birthstone gems assigned and others from the planets connected to a sign. As new crystals are found, they are assigned to a zodiac sign. The list is a compilation of the various gemstones assigned to each zodiac and can be found in A Crystal Bible by Judy Hall.
