 Birthstones for the month of August include alexandrite, carnelian, diamond, peridot, ruby, sardonyx, and sapphire.  In Astrology, the signs of Leo and Virgo which fall in the month of August include citrine, jade, jasper, onyx, tourmaline and zircon,

 

Ruby 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.  Today our highlighted piece is Ruby in Zoisite created in copper.

 

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

 

Ruby stimulates the base or root chakra.
