Zodiac Signs & Gemstones
The the life, character, and general health that a person is born under is influenced by their zodiac sign. Each sign has its own characteristic qualities and gemstone affinities. There are differing opinions as to what stones belong to which zodiac sign, so the following is a compilation from many sources. If you choose to select a stone from your zodiac sign, make sure you want to have that stone's influence in your life.
Examples where we have used zodiac signs for gemstone jewelry are many. The string section is the most noticeable as we put the zodiac charm at the bottom of the string. The Garnet and White Jasper gemstone necklace is an example of Leo stones being used in a design. Please be aware that not all of the gemstones are available to make jewelry from at this time.
