NOVEMBER BIRTHSTONE TOPAZ AND CITRINE

NOVEMBER BIRTHSTONE

TOPAZ AND CITRINE

    Topaz and citrine share the honour of being November’s birthstones. While the former is believed to have the power to cool boiling water, as well as excessive anger, the latter is said to be the traditional birthstone for November. People born during this month are said to have a heart of gold, and are believed to be warm by nature. 
 
MORE ABOUT THESE TWO GEMS The November birthstones symbolise friendship, especially the yellow topaz. The ancient Chaldeans were the first to establish a relationship between the signs of the zodiac and precious gems. Topaz was assigned to Sagittarius, from November 21 to December 20. Citrine has been called the “stone of the mind”. Ancient cultures believed that placing a citrine on the forehead of an elder person would increase his psychic power. It’s also believed to increase self esteem, protect you from negative energy and open your mind. The topaz, on the other hand, is said to help get rid of stagnant energy and help create an awareness of your thoughts and actions.
