The idea of using gemstones to symbolize a person’s birthdate can be traced back to ancient times. In biblical times, the High Priest Aaron wore a breastplate with twelve stones representing each of the original tribes of Israel. It was only in the first century, however, that a Romano-Jewish historian named Titus Flavius Josephus made a connection between these gems and the zodiac signs as well as the 12 months of the year.
