Ancient Greece and Rome saw royalty wearing them as talismans as a protection from the evil eyes of enemies and a symbol of harmony - wearing it could ease the relationships between adversaries and lovers. The sapphire is also said to have strong metaphysical healing properties, as it’s stimulating to the third eye chakra, and helps to boost the intuition and psychic abilities of the wearer. The sacred stone is revered for its healing properties, especially when worn by September babies or those with the Virgo star sign. In the Middle Ages, sapphires were believed to heal eye diseases and even plague boils. Although instantly recognisable by its deep blue colour, the sapphire comes in the colours of the rainbow, such as violet, green, black and even colourless. Derived from the Latin word “saphirus” and the Greek word “saphieros”, the sapphire is a sacred stone with mystical associations that transcends religions and history. It’s one of the most coveted gemstones in the world, with a popularity that dates back to the Middle Ages.
If you were born in September, you’ve lucked out with your birthstone - the sapphire is the darling of the jewellery world.
