LIFESTYLE NEWS - Feeling a little out of sorts? Need an energy boost or some internal motivation to get you going? Perhaps you should try wearing your birthstone.
Some might say it’s hocus pocus, but there is a strong belief in the healing properties of gemstones.
Black Betty jewelry designer, Kristin Weixelbaumer, worked closely with Cape Town astrologer Nicole L Smith to create her Zodiac range and shares five reasons to consider wearing your birthstone:
Let them heal you
The stones may help to ‘release’ blockages in your spiritual, mental, and physical well-being as they are said to have the power to focus healing energies of the planet onto your body, through contact with the skin.
They can also help you to feel more relaxed and stimulated.
Restore your ‘cosmic colour’
The pieces in our winter edit hold a neutral colour palette, making them easy to mix and match in endless variations.
Birthstones help to align your zodiac sign with you.
When your being is aligned to nature, ‘cosmic colours’ are able to come into alignment.
The cosmic colour assists in making you feel stronger, both physically and mentally.
Bring you luck and prosperity
By strengthening your energy and removing obstacles from your path, birthstones can help guide you to the positive aspect of life.
Help you to align spiritually
Balance is important in every aspect of life. Birthstones help to balance chakras which in turn aligns you, both spiritually and mentally, and improves your mood and outlook.
Uplift your daily fashion
It goes without saying that these enchanting gemstones come in a range of deep and beautiful colours. Birthstones help to enhance your outfit with vibrant colours.
They’re also conversation starters in many situations.
