What Is Your Real Birthstone? Every Month Explained

The Crystal Birth Chart takes your first name and the day you were born, works out all five, and names your Anchor Stone, with the room to keep it in and the one thing that quietly ruins it. https://birthchart.thecrystalier.com --------------------- One stone every week, and the real story behind it.    / @thecrystalier   Watch next:    • Crystals You Should Never Wear Based on Yo...   --------------------- Your birthstone, the one on the chart in every jewelry shop, was picked in 1912 by a room of American jewelers at a meeting in Kansas City. George Kunz of Tiffany, the man who did more than anyone to make birthstones popular, hated what they did with his idea and said so in print. Every month is in this video with its birthstone meaning, both stones where the two lists disagree, and the one I would keep. March, June, August, October, November and December are where the old traditional birthstones and the modern list flatly disagree. You will hear why bloodstone lost March to aquamarine, why June has been handed three stones, how the two famous rubies in the British Crown Jewels turned out to be spinel, and why your grandmother's golden topaz brooch may be citrine. Your month, your birthstone, and the story the shop chart leaves out. --------------------- Chapters 00:00 Who really picked your birthstone 00:59 The two birthstone lists 01:22 January, garnet 02:20 February, amethyst 02:59 March, bloodstone and aquamarine 04:30 April, diamond 05:24 May, emerald 06:18 June, pearl and alexandrite 07:54 July, ruby 09:02 August, sardonyx, peridot and spinel 10:31 September, sapphire 11:30 October, opal and tourmaline 12:55 November, topaz and citrine 14:21 December, turquoise, tanzanite and blue topaz 15:51 When your two stones disagree 16:11 The other three stones your birthday gives you Disclaimer: The Crystalier is a history channel about stones, not a health channel. Everything here about what a crystal does is tradition or modern practitioner belief, reported as that, and none of it replaces a doctor. Never drink water a stone has been sitting in. --------------- About The Crystalier The Crystalier tells the forgotten story behind the stones people have trusted for centuries. Every week, curator Roman Vale takes one corner of crystal healing and traces it back to where it started, the people who mined the stone, the tradition that named it, and why so many of us still keep one close. Whether you are new to healing crystals or your crystal collection has been growing for years, this is a channel about how to use crystals in your home, which stones and crystals belong in which room, and the history behind each one, from amethyst and rose quartz to clear quartz and the old protection stones people once set beside their doors. Every video also covers buying, because so many gemstones sold today are dyed, glass, or baked in an oven to change their colour. You will learn how to tell real crystals from the copies, how to go about cleansing crystals without ruining them, and what crystal energy has meant to the cultures that believed in it. It is crystals for beginners and longtime collectors alike, told with the history first.
