WHAT IF ... BIRTHSTONES COORDINATE WITH SIGNS AND NOT MONTHS?
I have been working with the Mineral Kingdom since the late 1980's when I was a bench jeweler. The stones that I worked with then were precious and semi-precious. Since then, I have come to use many more.
About 20 years ago, I started getting into the energy of the stones and couldn't find any jewelry that interested me (energetically speaking), so I went to a craft store and made myself a few necklaces. The restaurant where I tended bar, sponsored a girls softball team. One of the regulars asked me to come up with a price and was interested in purchasing some and so it began. I now have an ETSY Shop where I sell them. I started doing this years before different companies and countries started using "Trade Names" like calling dyed quartz "Mountain Jade" or heating amethyst and calling it citrine. All my minerals are referenced by their mineral name. Each stone has its' own energy and dyed quartz certainly doesn't have the energy of Jade. If you notice, the trade names originally use quotes. The more people copy it, the more the quotes get lost and the stones are misrepresented.

Now that the information about the origin of the stones is done, let's look at the months and the signs.
I noticed a few years ago, that March was named for Mars, the planet that rules ARIES, which starts at the end of March (around the end of the 3rd week).
I'm a Cancer, which is a water sign, emotional. Cancer begins in the end of June whose birthstone is Pearl. I was born in July whose birthstone is Ruby. Anything that comes from the ocean calms water signs which would benefit immensely the last week in June which is Cancer. The first 3 weeks of June is Gemini, an air sign, an intellectual, who has absolutely no need for a Pearl to calm their emotions. But Gemini can, however, benefit immensely from Emerald which rules the month of May, when Gemini begins, Emerald opens the heart chakra (green) and holds the vibration in the Language of Light of HONOR.
Ruby is the birthstone for July. In the Language of Light, Ruby holds the vibrations of COMMUNITY. Cancer, which rules the 1st 3 weeks of July, already wants to feed and nurture the world, they don't need to learn COMMUNITY, they already possess it, Leo which begins the last week of July, who wants to be the center of attention, would benefit immensely from learning the vibration of COMMUNITY. Maybe if we compare the energy of the stones to the characteristics of the sign, it will make more sense.
The signs have more in common than the months. Get it? At a time when we are all seeking to heal, I would much rather wear a stone that attracts the energy that I need to heal than the energy that I already am. Wouldn't you?
So, I present here the birthstones to best benefit the sign and its' energy by coordinating the stone with the sign that begins at the end of the month instead of the month itself.
The most of the energies of the stones here are quoted from the "Language of Light" written by my mentor, the late Karen Danrich aka "Mila". I offer this as a reference.
