12 Zodiac Symbols and Birthstones

12 Zodiac signs correspond to zodiac gem stones.

Zodiac gem stones are also called Astral Stones. Ancient astrologers turned to the heavens for answers as to why certain gem stones apparently held  magical powers.

They believed that the influence of your astrology sign over your fortune in life is strengthened by  wearing, holding or carrying the stone associated with the constellation under which you were born.
