The concept of birthstones is believed to have originated from the Bible, specifically the Breastplate of Aaron, which featured 12 stones representing 12 tribes. Due to limited scientific understanding at the time, the exact stones used remain uncertain, but scholars have made educated guesses.

In the 5th century, St. Jerome proposed that each stone could correspond to a month, leading to the modern birthstone tradition. However, it wasn’t until the 17th century that people started wearing only their birth month's stone year-round.

Each birthstone carries unique symbolism and is associated with various myths, legends, and healing properties. Additionally, zodiac stones, which emerged in the 18th century, are connected to astrological signs and believed to influence personality and energy.

Ultimately, choosing a birthstone or zodiac stone is a personal preference—there are no strict rules, and individuals can select a stone based on meaning, aesthetics, or personal connection.
