Aries - Diamond

The sun sign of Aries is ruled by the planet Mars, and with Mars being the roman god of war, you'll find the diamond bears a fascinating parallel to this mythological theme.

Taurus - Emerald

The luscious green of the emerald reflects this stone's connection to the earth in all its abundance. Both Taurus and the emerald are ruled by Venus the planet of love and beauty, and enjoy a mythological association, naturally, with Venus the goddess of love. Many astrologers would also argue that the planet earth serves as a co-ruler of Taurus.

Gemini - Agate

Infamous for their multi faceted personalities - no not just known for being the twins of the zodiac - Gemini people require variety in all forms to ward off boredom and to keep life interesting. Because of this, the Gemini gemstone, the agate, does not disappoint.

Cancer - Pearl

It 's no accident that Cancer's birthstone, the pearl, bears a resemblance to Cancer's ruling planet , the moon. The watery sign of Cancer and the pearl enjoy an intimate association with the sea and the many cross cultural incarnations of the mother Goddesses - Isis, Diana, Neptune and Aphrodite.

Leo - Ruby

The fiery red ruby is the perfect birthstone for fiery drama loving Leo. The flashing fire, warmth and power of the gemstone reflect the warmth and purity of Leo's loyal and loving heart. Indeed the heart is the part of the body associated with Leo, and no other stone is incorporated in heart shaped jewellery as often as the ruby.

Virgo - Sardonyx

Traditionally identified as Virgo's birthstone, the sardonyx promotes clear expression, healthy marital relationships and a positive state of mind. Because the sardonyx is a fire stone - ruled by the planet of Mars and associated with the warrior god of the same name - the assignment of this birthstone to Virgo raises problems.

Libra - Sapphire

The sapphire's soothing energies correspond to Libra's ability to promote peace love and harmony. The wearer of a sapphire enjoys enhanced perception of others feelings, concerns and needs, and this awareness increases Libra's ability to compromise and mediate conflicts, as Libra abhors disharmony of any kind in human relationships.

Scorpio - Opal

The energies of the multi coloured opal correspond to Scorpio's affinity for the mysterious. Pluto, the planetary ruler of Scorpio is associated with the roman god of the underworld. Anyone who has spent time staring at the seemingly concealed but changeable colours and facets of the opal, can get an idea of the fascinating qualities of Scorpio.

Sagittarius - Topaz

Sagittarians are known for their almost exasperating ability to attract wealth and good fortune, and this is as it should be for a sign ruled by the planet Jupiter - the expansive optimistic ruler of the cosmic lottery. Similarly the energies of the topaz attract wealth and enhance the wearers mood.

Capricorn - Amethyst

You certainly can't go wrong with this beautiful, all purpose, healing and life enhancing stone. Strictly speaking however this stone requires an astrological stretch to relate it to the sign of the mountain goat - or does it?

Aquarius - Aquamarine

A strong association with the sea makes the aquamarine a natural match for Aquarius the sign of the water bearer. Aquarius is known as a visionary sign, and the aquamarines properties energise visionary psychic powers. Many an Aquarian knows the frustration of having ingenious ideas and waiting years, yes even decades, before the ideas gain popular understanding or appreciation.

Pisces - Moonstone

The relationship between Pisces and the moonstone recalls the intimate connection between the moon and the sea. Pisces planetary ruler is Neptune associated with the roman god of the sea. The moonstone energises the elemental powers of water and reflects, at times even channels, the cyclical influences of the moon.
