Blue-Zircon Birthstone for December

Blue-Zircon Birthstone for December

This lovely blue colored gemstone is the birthstone for december. Not to be confused with blue cubic zirconia, which is a manmade gem, blue zircon is a natural gem.

Some lore that goes along with blue zircon is that it helps ease childbirth pain, protects against nightmares, helps you to have peace with yourself,  provide wisdom, honor and riches, and loss of luster is a warning of danger.

Zircon comes from the Persian word zargun which means golden color (zircon comes in many colors).

Zircon is one of the oldest gemstones known. Clear zircon is a natural gemstone replacement for diamonds because of its brilliant fire and hardness.
