Firstly, a few facts about ruby

Ruby is a gemstone of beauty which comes from the mineral species called 'Corundum', which is also the same species as sapphires – they are essentially the same gemstone but the differences in colour is caused by trace impurities when the gemstones were forming. 

Sapphires can come in many different colours – green, pink, yellow, and blue, but most commonly the blue variety is globally known as Sapphire. But the deep-red variety is exclusively called 'ruby'. 

The most in-demand colour for a ruby is an intense red colour commonly called 'pigeon blood red'. These rubies are those considered red with a slightly violetish tone (crimson), but those that are intense red with a slightly orangish tone are less in-demand.

How birthstones bring good luck

Birthstones are said to date back to the biblical era and those who actively wear their birthstone do so to bring good luck. I have spoken with many customers who say they at least 'feel' luckier when wearing their birthstone. However this luck isn’t ‘magic’ and does not promise to instantly change your life.

Instead, your birthstone can help unlock your inner strength (that you always had) and offer guidance through difficult situations by altering your belief system.

If you believe you are lucky, you will be lucky. If you believe it will happen, it will happen.

Birthstones for personal growth

Birthstones for luck / personal growth is always an interesting topic I love to talk about with customers, because everyone has their own slight way of how they use their birthstones. 

If you are new to wearing birthstones I recommend you start by treating each gemstone as a little piece of your inner universe, that constantly builds your intuition and brings you energy needed for personal growth – be it positivity, hope, concentration, focus, or self-love.

Either way, a birthstone is the perfect way to bring a spiritual connection between you and the dreams you want to manifest into your life. 

Love & Light,
