The giving of precious and semi-precious stones in a manner that coincides with one's birthday, has become a time honored tradition. In the Tibetan culture, birthstones have been treasured for over a thousand years. Today that old tradition carries on with a modern list of stones: garnet - January, amethyst - February, aquamarine - March, diamond - April, emerald - May, pearl moonstone - June, ruby - July, peridot - August, sapphire - September, tourmaline - October, topaz or citrine - November, and lapis lazuli, or zircon - December.
