May Birthstone: Emerald
Emerald is the traditional birthstone for May. Because we love them so much, and this is our site for "color", we also think they deserve another month - April (traditionally, colorless diamond!).
Emerald's verdant tones encourage growth within oneself, and like a vast forest, it encourages peace and rejuvenation.
Emerald for Friendship, Luck and Love
Love is at the core of the emerald, in that it's been said to improve one's love life and the relationships in other aspects of one's life. Luck is also on the side of the emerald, in that cultures all around the world have believed that wearing an emerald would bring its bearer fortune and favor with all.
