There are all sorts of benefits to being a December baby. First of all, you get to celebrate your birthday at a time when everyone is already feeling festive and in the mood for fun and there’s always a huge amount going on at this time of year, so you’re never short for birthday entertainment.
And secondly, you get to have blue topaz as your birthstone, a really stunning silicate mineral made of fluorine and aluminium.
There are lots of different shades of blue that this beautiful gem comes in, ranging from London Blue (which is a rich, deep tone) to Sky Blue (which is lighter and more aquamarine in colour), so you can play around with different looks to find the one that complements you and your personality the best.
As with other crystals and gemstones, blue topaz represents a vast array of wonderful qualities and it’s believed by many that it is symbolic of new opportunities, wisdom and success… making it a great option for your burgeoning crystal collection.
It’s also thought that blue topaz is an energy stone, helping to provide you with much-needed stress relief – perfect for the festive season! Not only that but it’s also believed that it can provide pain relief, as well, and it’s considered to be a throat chakra stone, so is often worn at the neck to help unblock our channels to allow energy to flow freely once again.
When using blue topaz for interior design, consider placing the gemstone in the wealth corner of your home. To find the wealth corner, stand at the front door of the house, facing into the property and find the far left corner of the building.
Take a look at this part of the house and see if it’s tidy and well organised or full of clutter. Activating this part of the home can help you improve your feelings of self-worth and encourage abundance and prosperity into your life. Placing blue topaz in this part of the house can help make a big difference in this regard.
