What Is A Sapphire?
Before we whisk you away into the world of Asters, let's take a quick detour to remember the iconic sapphire! Known for its mesmerizing hues, sapphires are members of the grand corundum family. Rocking a 9 on the Mohs scale, these gems are almost as tough as diamonds!
Did you know that sapphires come in a rainbow of colors? This is all thanks to trace elements like magnesium, chromium, and titanium!
Sapphire Meaning & Symbolism
Hold onto your hats because not only are sapphires just pretty, they are also packed with significance! Often known as “The Wisdom Stone” or “ The Stone of Prosperity”, this gem has a vibrant history and symbolism. With its roots in the Latin word “saphirus” and the Greek word “sapheiros”, both translating to “blue”, the sapphire is more than just eye candy; it’s a catalyst for positivity and achieving your goals!
