May Birthstone Guide: Emeralds & Astrology

May has arrived! With that comes a new birthstone guide and this month is all about the pretty green gem, emerald! In previous guides, we’ve shared the many unique properties of an emerald and which emerald ring we offer but this time, it’s all things astrology and what it means with your birthstone. Let’s dive in!

Brief History


Before we get started, let’s chat a little bit about the emerald itself! This dreamy green-hued gemstone ranks 7.5-8 (depending on the purity of the stone) on the Mohs scale. This birthstone dates all the way back to ancient Egyptian times and throughout the years has been popular in the art deco era and even with royalty!

Emeralds & Astrology


Astrology sesh time! Emeralds are associated with the zodiac sign Gemini, but other signs such as Cancer, Taurus, Libra, Virgo, and Aquarius can benefit from the stone too. When Mercury is placed well in your horoscope, lots of positivity, good fortune, and happiness will be abundant in your life!
When it comes to getting the most out of this stone, it is best to wear this stone with moonstone, white sapphire, and pearl. Is there a particular day that’s best to wear the stone? There sure is! While the stone is associated with Friday, it is also a good idea to wear the stone on a Monday. Who knew?
