In 1994, with the screen name, SunsDove7: we hosted the very first astrological online classes. We had hundreds of astrologers contribute classes and sharing and thousands of people attended the Astro*Cafe everyone contributed for free and enthusiastically.
Even with a special account at aol it took all day to send out the Astro*Menu to thousands of listeners.
We will revisit these original magical moments of the beginning of the internet starting 1 October 2007, 15 years later! Now we have radio, graphics, free phones, and a host of other tools to support us, enjoy!
It is believed that those born in a given month will acquire the special benefits of the gemstone of that month by wearing it. It is probable that this originated from the custom of wearing various ornaments and gemstones for their magical powers.
That the birth-month determines the course of one’s life and character, is to be found throughout most belief systems throughout the world. There is no proof that the wearing of gemstones alters the course of one’s life or character! However, it is a fact that certain gemstones have health giving properties and have been used by healers from the beginning of time.
This list of gemstones for the Zodiac is taken from the 1st Century when the Jewish High Priests of Israel decorated their ceremonial breastplates with twelve gemstones. This is described in the Bible –Exodus 28, 15-30.
It is believed that the dark blue stone Lapis Luzuli was used, rather than sapphires.
