The Best Approach to Gemstone Beads for Every Personality Type

Finding the perfect wholesale gemstone beads can be tricky, but it doesn’t have to be! The right gemstone beads can not only complement your outfit and your personal style, but they can also reflect your personality and individuality as well. With so many choices available, it can be difficult to know which type of gemstone bead you should buy!

 

Know your personality according to your birthstone

Each birthstone is associated with a specific month of birth, yet many people have their birthstones assigned according to when they were born in relation to the calendar. Because your personality is influenced by more than your astrological sign, it’s best to assign gemstones based on your actual birthdates.

January- Garnet

Garnet is January’s birthstone, so those born in January are a great fit for garnet beads. However, everyone should consider their personality type before buying garnet beads. Garnet boosts self-confidence and creativity and it have been used by cultures all over the world as a symbol of health, vitality, self-control, and fortitude. This gemstone is associated with fire and earth element stones, which represent self-expression and balance respectively.

February- Amethyst

February’s birthstone, amethyst, is a lovely choice if you’re looking for a bold and eye-catching bead. Amethyst can range from purple-hued lavender to more violet with red undertones—making it ideal in combination with almost any colored bead. And even if you decide to stick with just one color, amethyst makes a great accent color as well. Whether you’re going classic or playful, pairing your beads with amethyst is never a bad idea!

March- Aquamarine

March’s birthstone, aquamarine, brings a breath of fresh air with its cool blue-green hue. While it can be found in several shades, pure crystal blue is most sought after. March babies born on the 17th are lucky enough to wear this gem because aquamarine gets its name from Latin words meaning water and sea. This stone is thought to bring all things marine into our lives: happiness, abundance, and calm seas.

April- Diamond

It’s no surprise that diamonds are one of the most popular gemstones of all time. Diamonds are a girl’s best friend, after all! When it comes to colored gemstones, diamonds never get old. Whether you prefer fancy or round cuts, or white or yellow-toned diamonds, there’s a diamond shape that’ll compliment your personality and style.

May- Emerald

May’s birthstone is emerald, so it makes sense that these stunning gemstones would be her favorite. She buys them anytime they are on sale, and keeps them in a special wooden box she bought at a vintage store. May is also drawn to black tourmaline, garnet, and turquoise—but any colored stone will do. She loves anything blue-green and says everyone needs at least one piece of colorful jewelry in their closet.

June- Alexandrite, Pearl, Moonstone

In June, you may be seeking a retreat from daily life. This means that gemstone beads should help you relax and unwind without causing stress. Pearl, moonstone, and alexandrite are all excellent choices during June. You can wear these gems during evening relaxation or an evening out with friends. Pearl will ease your mind if it’s racing at night and help to keep you hydrated. Moonstone is soothing, as well as calming, even under pressure. Alexandrite will boost your mood by releasing tension in your body. It also helps to promote self-esteem.

July- Ruby

According to astrologers, rubies tend to draw a lot of attention; they’re admired by everyone. If you’re in a business or profession where drawing attention and being noticed is important, then these stones can help. Ruby is also an excellent stone for public speakers and performers—if you give speeches or lead presentations, consider wearing a ruby necklace.

August- Peridot, Spinel

August has some gorgeous stone options that might be right up your alley. The month of August is Peridot and Spinel. Peridot is a beautiful translucent green gem, often used in jewelry (it's also my birthstone). August babies born under Aries and Leo are especially lucky in that they can choose any of these gems as their birthstones. Both Peridot and Spinel have a good amount of fire energy and positive characteristics, making them perfect stones for an August baby. If you're looking for something with more fire energy than your birthday provides, I'd recommend considering one of these two stones. Both have a powerful ability to promote positivity in life, so if you feel like you need a little extra motivation or inspiration in your life then I'd highly recommend picking one of these two up!

September- Sapphire

Sapphire is known as one of the stones of wisdom, as well as being a symbol of truth. The color of sapphire has been associated with purity and eternity, along with becoming a stone that protects against psychic attacks.

October- Opal

October’s birthstone, opal, is a great option for people born in October because of its ability to reflect light. The gem can come in nearly any color. There are pink, blue, and green opals that bring a bright look as well as black opals that give off an almost mirror-like appearance. When wearing Opal jewelry, you never have to be afraid of mixing it with other gemstones either. 

November- Topaz

Topaz is an incredibly hard gem, rating a 9 on the Mohs scale. It’s very durable and will maintain its clarity even with everyday wear. Topaz is also a nice replacement for diamonds; if you are not as interested in bling. Topaz ranks a 8 on hardness, so it will withstand everyday wear without losing its shine and luster. 

December- Tanzanite, Zircon, Turquoise

Tried and true, December birthstones are known for their deep-blue hues. Turquoise, a unique blend of sky-blue and green, has long been valued by Native Americans as a protective amulet. Zircon is known as zirconium in some parts of South America, where it is frequently found alongside emerald and aquamarine. These three colors make up most December birthstone options. December's gemstones also include tanzanite; its color varies from purple to violet.

Conclusion
