Birthstone Pendants Healing Powers

Birthstone pendants are special gifts - aside from the fact that they symbolizes the month a person was born, they also signifies the wearer's personality. Charm and beauty are just a plus.

Health wise, garnet's powers include healing, strength, and protection and it is often worn to relieve inflammations of the skin. It is also believed to regulate the heart and blood flow and aid in curing depression. In earlier times, garnets were exchanged as gifts between friends to demonstrate their affection for each other and to insure that they meet again.

Moreover, garnet birthstone pendants can also symbolize the wearer's passion and courage, as well as his or her power and energy. This gemstone is also popular among lovers as a token to ensure the return of a loved one. This tradition can be traced back to Greek mythology in which Hades gave pomegranate seeds to Persephone to force her to return. As it comes in the same color, garnet is used by many people as the symbolic counterpart of Hades' seeds.

At this technology-driven world those superstitious belief may no longer exists. Nevertheless, it may still bring them a special sense of comfort to wear around their neck that was once believed to have all the said powers. And knowing that what he/she is wearing is given by someone special is enough reason for him/her to wear it.

The charm, beauty, and symbolism of birthstone pendants are what make these pieces of jewelry so special.
