Ruby is the chosen gemstone for the Cancer star sign and those born in the summer month of July. Ruby rings are also the perfect way to celebrate a 40th wedding anniversary. Ruby red is the Chinese colour of luck and the worldwide symbol of love.
As part of a year long Gregorian Birthstone Poem, July’s verse quotes ruby as the gemstone to wear to be free of doubt and anxiety in matters relating to love, romance and passion.
The gleaming ruby should adorn,
All those who in July are born,
For thus they’ll be exempt and free,
From lover’s doubts and anxiety.
(Published in 1870 by Tiffany & Co, author unknown)
Although ruby rings are bold, vibrant, romantic and powerful shades of red, wearing a ruby ring is also said to bring the wearer good health, integrity, confidence and happiness.
