I've always been fascinated by the unseen forces that shape our lives – I loved the idea of how everyone had a sun, moon, and rising sign. I saw them as personal guides, revealing layers of who we are and the relationship I have with others. When I was working under a big corporate fashion power house and had to manage more staff, their astrology sign was like a quick look into their MBTI and I swear, it works!
Just like our astrological charts, I believe birthstones hold a similar, beautiful magic and this belief is why I felt it was important to offer the option to personalize your necklaces with your very own birthstone. It's more than just adding a sparkle; it's about weaving a piece of your cosmic identity along with the Chinese Characters that are meaningful to you into one piece of jewellery that you can wear everyday and cherish forever.
While modern birthstones are now organised by calendar month, zodiac stones are actually matched to the sun's position at birth. They are designed to enhance the strengths, balance the negative qualities, and offer protection to people born under that sign.
