Birth Stones and Lucky color
Most gem scholars agree that the tradition of birthstones are arose Breastplate
of Aaron: a ceremonial religious garment set with the twelve gemstones,
which represented the twelve tribes of Israel and also corresponded with
the twelve signs of the zodiac and also with the twelve months of the
year.
Because ancient people did not always classify gemstones by its mineral
species like we do, there is some debate about that gemstones were set
in the breastplate and why. Because of this, different cultures around
this beautiful world have developed different birth stone lists. The modern
day list that you know is only the most recent one list: some older lists
still exist. Some also argue that the proper way to assign gemstones is
according to astrological sign and not according to month.
We think it is more fun to choose the gemstone that speaks for you from
all the possibilities. Of course it is hard to keep track of all those
lists. Enter the Gem-o-Matic! Select your birthdates and other significant
