Is it good luck to wear your birthstone?
Each month has a birthstone it’s associated with. Followers of astrology often attribute wearing your own birthstone with good fortune, health and even defense from bad spirits. At times, it's also been believed that wearing all twelve birthstones at once would bring the greatest protection.
All birthstones are sublime, with some like diamonds, being sought after gems for reasons other than luck.
