Now you have many more reasons than just aesthetic beauty of the gem to wear gemstone jewelry.

Traditionally people used to wear amulets to guard them against evil spirits. Later on the trend caught on with the birthstones. Birthstones are known to have positive influences on a persons life. They increase positive traits and decrease negativity in an individuals personality. Expert astrologers now recommend various stones and not just the birthstone to influence the wearers personality.
