While there is no specific destiny for the specifics of your life, there are certainly destinies related to the attributes and conditions you will attract in this life. This can result in having a “lighter load” during this life. They can expedite our experiences of prior life karmas and the timelines that lead to achieving our desires. ![]() It’s in this way that our birthstones can be lucky for us. Our birthstones were with us upon our birth, knowing who we are and who we might become. They can help us break karmic trends, heal ancient wounds, and escape the harshest aspects built into the fabric of our life trajectories. This is why birthstones can be extremely valuable to us. By wearing some of them for specific purposes, you can protect yourself from the negative influences that were found in the heavens at the time and place of your birth month. In Sanskrit, they are known as Navaratna or The Nine Gems. Hinduism tells us that the nine gemstones connected to your specific celestial forces can help you in this life. This makes each stone unique in its attributes and footprint. All the stones throughout all the galaxies and universes are born with energetic infusions. While the stars and planets are working with the energetic aspects within the heavens to bring you to life and then guide you through to your death, there are other players in the game: gemstones. Therein lie two potential responses to our birth influences and the resulting karmic flows: roll with it or rise above it. We can choose to move with these constructs, as if being whisked away on mini rollercoasters throughout our lives, or we can challenge them by understanding how they function, then continuously choose to improve our responses to them. Inherent in these constellations and formations is a unique set of influences and energetic attributes. Because every aspect of creation is connected, our birth stars and planets are positioned in ways that are meant to impact our lives, both positively and negatively. "It's great for encouraging exploration of new thoughts and ideas, so if you have been feeling a little bit stuck, boxed in, or lacking some creativity, it really encourages you to shift your perspective and think of things in a new way," she adds.Īnd while all these things are certainly not exclusive to Cancers and Leos born in July, Van Doren says, these signs get to claim the beautiful red gemstone as their own, and will "greatly benefit from surrounding themselves with the protective, grounding energy of rubies.When each of us is born, elements throughout the universe are aligned in uniquely specific formations. This is also an excellent stone for increasing your energy, vitality, and motivation, according to Leavy. She notes that they "resonate with our two lower chakras, helping clear deeply rooted issues related to self-worth, scarcity, and survival." This gem is composed of transparent red corundum, which is a mineral form of aluminum oxide.Īccording to Van Doren, rubies are supremely powerful grounding and protective crystals. Those born in July have the striking red ruby as a birthstone. ![]() "This association makes sense because it literally looks like a tiny moon-it's brilliant, and shining, and lustrous," she says, adding, "the ancient Greeks and Romans believed this stone was actually formed from the light of the moon." Leavy explains that pearls also have a strong association with the moon (which rules Cancer, btw). And for Cancer, pearls can help soothe nerves. For Geminis, Van Doren notes, pearls can help calm the tendency to get easily distracted. This is a great stone for the two astrological signs of June: Gemini and Cancer. "Pearls are luminous reminders that it's often the most difficult things in life that transform us the most beautifully," she explains, adding, "But just as it takes a mollusk much time and effort to transform a grain of sand into a pearl, it also takes us a lot of time and dedicated soul work to transform our greatest challenges into priceless radiance." These lustrous gems are made of calcium carbonite, just like the shells of the mollusks from which they come. If you were born in June, your birthstone is the pearl, which happens to be the only gemstone formed by a living creature, Van Doren notes. ![]()
