The Blue Sapphire a Gemstone with a Strong Symbolism in Astrology
Sapphire Jewelry Meaning Symbolism and Properties
The blue sapphire ranks as one of our most desirable gemstones alongside the diamond, ruby, and emerald. As deep blue as the oceans depths this is a gem with strong undercurrents of meaning to the person who wears it.

A stone synonymous with royalty and romance it is believed to bring wealth, wisdom, and protection to its wearer. It is strongly connected to the heavens and to religious insight and as a symbol of such it is deeply associated with most religions.

Although sapphires are available in a variety of colors it is the shades of blue which are most widely recognized as representing this gem. The blue sapphire is birthstone for September, the gem of the 5th, 45th, and 65th wedding anniversaries as well as the gemstone representing the Virgo Zodiac symbol.


Meaning of the Blue Sapphire Gem Stone
Sapphire Jewelry Gemstone Meaning & Properties
The word sapphire originates from the Latin word saphirus and the Greek word sapheiros the meaning of both these words being the color blue. This gemstone has a strong symbolism to the heavens and to spiritual connection.

The blue sapphire is believed to bring wisdom and protection to its owner. Strongly connecting to the spiritual realm it was worn to bring sound judgement and to offer divine insights. It was believed to offer protection against enemies and disloyalty and to stave off ill health. For these reasons this gem was frequently selected to be worn as a talisman by royalty and heads of church.

It is of important significance in many religious affiliations. The sapphire has long been used within Buddhist and Hindu faiths and was known to worn by members of the Catholic clergy throughout the middle ages. Sapphire is mentioned 12 times in the bible but it's appearance there may have been an unintentional substitution for lapis lazuli which is another blue stone.


Sapphires are Available in Many Colors

​Zodiac Symbols Who Best Wear Blue Sapphire Jewelry

In astrology the blue sapphire is the gemstone of Saturn and as such can bring either good fortune or ill will to its wearer. Symbolized by hardship and hard work to garner rewards these factors can work for or against the wearer of this stone.

The blue sapphire is considered lucky when worn by specific zodiac symbols and will benefit these. It is best worn by Capricorn and Taurus but can also be influential to Libra, Gemini, and Aquarius.

It is believed that to its correct wearer this gem can bring great prosperity, good health, good luck, knowledge, and spiritual insight. In addition it offers protection within love relationships and from illness or harm.

Although the blue sapphire is the gem of Virgo it is considered a neutral stone to these individuals as they can be influenced in either direction by its wearing.

Delightfully Enchanting in so Very Many Ways

​Protection in Love and Romance from Infidelity
Picture
One of the most unique perceived protections of a sapphire is the belief that it can protect one's relationship from infidelity. This led to it being a popular jewelry piece to be gifted in a relationship. By changing in color or intensity the gem would expose an unfaithful lover to the other.

Although this reputed lore can be quite callous the blue sapphire is today recognized as a highly romantic stone and thus is a jewelry piece frequently gifted to ones lover as an engagement or wedding ring.

Further romanticizing this gem Prince Charles gifted a blue sapphire diamond ring to Princess Diana. This same ring was passed down to Prince Harry who in turn passed it to Prince William who then gifted it to Kate Middleton on their engagement.
