Certain gems have more vibration power for people because they are associated with the time of their birth; Diamond is the main  birthstone for April and I think it is not hard to vibrate with that. If you are not born in April, don’t despair, you can still get your diamond for other reasons. The name “diamond” comes from the Greek word “adamas” meaning unconquerable, suggesting the eternity of love and with that diamonds are primarily used in engagement rings ( it is the only gem that will not wear over time) and are  the accepted anniversary gem for the 10th and 60th years of marriage.

But the gods also have mercy on the purse and according to ancient mythology, any white or clear stone signifies integrity, innocence and happiness and can be used as a birthstone for April.

In some texts coral is also mentioned, but that must have vanished by the time the de Beers group started their diamond marketing campaign

Coral instils courage in its user. It also helps in curing blood related diseases. The colour red denotes matters of the heart. Red on a man indicates command and nobility; for a woman, pride or tenacity.

Coral ensures material happiness which I can well believe after saving all that money not buying this diamond…
