October birthdays have a choice of two gemstones: tourmaline and opal. Tourmaline is a bi or tri colour gemstone as they display several colours - watermelon tourmaline for example has bands of green, pink and white. Tourmaline is found in Brazil, Afghanistan, East Africa and the USA. Tourmaline helps to maintain calm, negate jealousy and anger whilst promoting peace and tranquillity for the wearer.
Opal is taken from the Greek Opallos - to see a change of colours. Opals range from milky white to black with flashes of colour - orange, green red and blue. Opal is supposed to have healing properties, will calm the wearer's nerves and improve their memory.
