CAPRICORN BIRTHSTONE - RUBY

 Birthstones for the month of December include the modern birthstones Turquoise, Tanzanite and blue Topaz, the traditional birthstones Lapis Lazuli and Zircon, the mystical stone Onyx and the talisman Beryl.  Also there are sun stones for Capricorn (Ruby, Agate, Garnet and Onyx) and Sagittarius (Topaz, Amethyst Ruby, Sapphire and Turquoise) as these sun signs fall within the month of December.

 

Today we are highlighting Ruby which is one of the precious gemstones.  Ruby is the red variety of the mineral Corundum and Sapphire is the blue variety.  Essentially Ruby is a red Sapphire and has a hardness of 9.

 

It is rare to find ruby on its own in metaphysically jewellery pieces.  Frequently it is found in Zoisite (a green stone) which makes it much more affordable. 

 

Ruby is a very powerful stone.   It is said to help us shake off limitations and promotes joy, courage and strength.  It is used to promote enthusiasm and enthusiasm in turn helps us to live life.  This stone is suggested during times of feeling exhaustion.

 

Over the centuries, Ruby has been used as a shield against negative energies.

 

Ruby is said to promote love and amplifies energy.  It is a talisman for sex and love.

 

It stimulates the base or root chakra.
