Alright, so you wanna know about this Pisces birthstone thing, huh? Let me tell ya, it ain’t rocket science. It’s just like pickin’ a good tomato – gotta know what you’re lookin’ for.
What’s the Main Stone?
Well, they say the main one, the big cheese, is somethin’ called aquamarine. Fancy name, right? Sounds like somethin’ you’d wash your hands with, but no, it’s a pretty stone, all blue-green like the sea. They say it’s for March babies, if you was born in that month.
Now, if you was born in February, then your stone is amethyst. That’s the purple one, kinda like them grapes down at the market, but shinier. Both of ‘em are for Pisces, ya know, that fishy sign. Always swimmin’ two ways, those Pisces folks.
Other Stones for Pisces
But hold on, there’s more! It ain’t just them two. They got a whole bunch of other rocks they say work for Pisces. There’s bloodstone, which sounds kinda scary, but it’s just a dark green stone with red spots. Then there’s jasper, that one comes in all sorts of colors. And jade, that’s the green one the Chinese folks like so much.
- Bloodstone: Dark green with red spots.
- Jasper: Comes in different colors.
- Jade: A green stone.
- Ruby: A red stone, real pretty and expensive.
- Lapis Lazuli: A deep blue stone with gold flecks.
- Yellow Sapphire: A yellow stone. They also call it Pukhraj.
And get this, they even got a red one, ruby they call it. Fancy and expensive, that one is. Then there’s lapis lazuli, a pretty blue one with little gold bits in it, like stars in the night sky. Last but not least, there’s yellow sapphire, a yellow one, some people call it Pukhraj. Lots of choices, huh? Makes your head spin.
Why Aquamarine is Special
But that aquamarine, that’s the one they talk about the most. They say it brings hope and makes you kind. It’s the color of the sea, all calm and peaceful. Good for wearin’ every day, they say, or for special times. Kinda like your good Sunday dress, only you wear it on your finger or around your neck. It’s strong too, won’t break easy, which is good, ‘cause Lord knows we don’t need more things breakin’ on us.
They say it’s the ocean turned to stone, can you believe that? Sounds like somethin’ out of a fairy tale, but hey, who am I to judge? Them fancy folks got their ways, and if they say a stone can do all that, well, maybe it can.
Yellow Sapphire and Jupiter
Oh, and this yellow sapphire, or Pukhraj, that’s somethin’ special too. They say it’s for Jupiter, that big planet up there. Supposed to bring you good luck and money. Who wouldn’t want that, right? Especially in these times, with prices goin’ up on everything.
Pisces – The Fish Sign
Pisces, now that’s the last sign, they say. Got two fish swimmin’ in different ways. Kinda like my chickens, always scatterin’ every which way. Makes you wonder how they ever get anythin’ done, but they do, just like them Pisces folks. Always got their minds in two places, dreamin’ and doin’ at the same time.
So there ya have it. Aquamarine and amethyst for the main ones, and a whole bunch of others if you want somethin’ different. Just pick the one you like, the one that feels right. It ain’t no different than pickin’ a good melon – you just know it when you see it. And who knows, maybe it’ll bring ya some luck or somethin’. Can’t hurt, right?
Anyways, that’s all I know about it. Hope it helps ya out. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed them chickens.
