The time when you are born isn't just another day. It holds a more profound significance that goes beyond the date. Each month has associated symbols that signify certain energies and meanings that often manifest in different ways in a person's life. There are gemstones, too, that are associated with each month of the year. 

The fascinating fact about these birth stones is that they have healing powers that open mental, physical, and spiritual barriers within you. If you wear your birthstone, you're essentially connecting with the earth's energy. This focused energy releases all the negative energy to make space for more positive spiritual energy. 

If you want to use stones for healing, you must know which is the right one for you. Here's a quick guide on birthstones associated with each month and how they can benefit you.
