The idea that certain precious stones were associated with certain months goes back at least to the 1st century CE; however the custom of wearing the precious stones began in Poland during the 18th century. Though it’s associated with the month you were born in may have been around for centuries, the wearing of jewelry containing your birthstone is a little more recent or modern.
The wearying of one's birthstone is traditionally thought to be lucky, which gemstone does one chose; modern, traditional, zodiac, planetary, talismanic, or maybe Ancient Arabic, Hebrew, Italian, or Roman stones. For example, there are thirteen different stones associated with December, or as Sun/Star, Planetary, Talismanic stones for the Zodiac sign of Sagittarius or Capricorn, because the Zodiac for December crosses over two months. So with the month of December the gemstones are turquoise, blue topaz, tanzanite, zircon, lapis, onyx, ruby, and chrysoprase. The Zodiac signs for Sagittarius and Capricorn include five more stones of agate, garnet, amethyst, sapphire, and beryl.
