The Legend of the July Birthstone Ruby
The word "ruby" comes from the Latin word "ruber," meaning red. This gemstone has long been associated with royalty, power, and wealth. Ancient civilizations revered rubies as symbols of protection, courage, and love. In ancient India, they were believed to protect their wearers from misfortune and were often embedded in the armor of soldiers going into battle. Similarly, in ancient Burmese culture, rubies were thought to possess the power to make warriors invincible in battle.
The Symbolism and Benefits of Wearing Ruby
The ruby's fiery red color is often associated with passion, love, and vitality. Many believe rubies can ignite new love or add a spark to existing relationships. That's why ruby jewelry is such a thoughtful and meaningful gift for someone special, whether it's a new love interest, a longtime partner, or even a close friend. Plus, rubies are the traditional gemstone for both 15th and 40th wedding anniversaries.
Beyond its romantic associations, the ruby is also considered a protective stone, believed to shield the wearer from negative energies and promote a positive mindset. It is thought to encourage courage, inner strength, and a zest for life. If you're looking for a gemstone that can ignite your passions and empower you to face life's challenges with confidence and optimism, the ruby is the perfect choice.
Caring Your Ruby
To keep your ruby jewelry looking beautiful for years to come, proper care is essential. While rubies are durable, scoring a 9 on the Mohs scale of hardness, it's still important to handle them gently.
Avoid exposing your rubies to harsh chemicals or extreme temperatures. Clean your ruby jewelry regularly using mild soapy water and a soft brush. When storing your ruby pieces, wrap them in a soft cloth to prevent scratches.
