Lillia Boekeloo asked:


All astrological signs have a birthstone and a birth metal, the birth stone has partly to do with what Element the sign is, like Taurus, it’s Element is Earth and it’s birth stone is Emerald and it’s metal is Copper. In some cases the metal matches what planet rules the sign. Like with Gemini’s their ruling planet is Mercury and so is their metal, and their birthstone is Agate.

Many people don’t know that there are Astrological birthstones and monthly birthstones, for example, lets say you are a Cancer born in July, your Astrological birthstone is pearl and your monthly birthstones is Ruby, but if you’re a Cancer who was born in June then your monthly birthstone is different, it is either Pearl or Moonstone.
