Just like each month of the year is allocated a birthstone, different stones are assigned to each star sign of the Zodiac. The idea of Zodiac gemstones dates back to the Middle Ages. Every Zodiac sign is ruled by a planet and each planet rules particular gemstones according to its colour. Some believe that each gemstone has magical powers when worn.
