Virgo (August 24 – September 23)
Gemstone: Blue Sapphire
Sapphires are available in a myriad of colours but it’s the blue variety that is most valuable. This works out well for Virgos as it’s a colour that is most associated with the earth sign. A stone of wisdom, prophecy, and divinity, sapphires encourage open-mindedness and have the ability to lift moods, balancing Virgos’s tendency to be overly critical and conservative. There is a caution, though: Blue sapphires can bring about an adverse effect. So it’s best to try out the stone for at least a week before deciding if it suits you. If it is, it’ll bring the mentally-agile Virgo health, wealth, and happiness.
