December is, most likely, the most awaited month of the year. After all, Christmas takes place and people look forward to seeing their families and friends. However, this month is also one of the richest ones for gemstone lovers.
December has not one, not even two, but three birthstones. They all differ from each other, not only for their aesthetics but also for their properties and meanings. Therefore, it might be hard to choose the one that truly matches your personality. Luckily, we are here for you, and in the following lines, we will analyze them in detail so that you won’t make the wrong choice. Without further ado, let’s dive into it!
Tanzanite
Rare, precious and beautiful, Tanzanite is the perfect crystal to achieve balance and awaken your consciousness.
This stone is scarce. Currently, the deposit located in Tanzania isn’t just the one that gives the name to the gem but is also the only one that exists. And not surprisingly, Tanzanite’s price is often high.
Let’s get serious now: what makes this gemstone unique? Tanzanite facilitates communication and harmonizes your relationships. For this reason, a lot of people use it when they want to strengthen family unity or stimulate mutual understanding with friends.
So, what’s the best way to use it? Tanzanite excels with necklaces and bracelets, especially when handmade. If you are having troubles in your social sphere, you would probably benefit from looking at a handcrafted jewelry collection and choosing a Tanzanite-made accessory.
Turquoise
Five thousand years ago, ancient Egyptian first used Turquoise as a protective charm. Over the centuries, this stone became widely known for its capability to enhance creativity and stimulate the intellect.
Therefore, Turquoise is particularly indicated for those who tend to see the world using the filter of their feelings. A day can last the blink of an eye or a century, and joy can suddenly transform into pain and sadness.
Sounds familiar? Then Turquoise is the right choice for you. On the one hand, it is capable of improving your creative skills, while on the other, it is highly effective in achieving emotional balance and controlling mood swings.
However, Turquoise is a burdensome stone to find, mainly because the market is crowded with excellent imitations that can easily mislead you. So be careful and always ask an expert opinion before buying any piece of jewelry with it.
Zircon
Probably less known than its “competitors”, but the most spiritual one, without any doubt. Zircon exists in many variations that can determine very different price ranges. The red one is relatively expensive, but it’s also exquisite. So, if you need an accessory to complete your gala-night dress, this is the way to go.
Speaking of properties, Zircon helps eliminate obsessive thoughts and smooth the tendency to mull over things. In other words, this gemstone helps you to be in the moment and thus develop awareness. So, if you tend to stress over things and quickly get anxious about the future, Zircon will help you with that.
Once again, the most efficient way to take advantage of its properties is to keep in contact with your skin. Therefore, it seems you’ll have to buy a new jewel. It could be worse, couldn’t it?
