August........sardonyx for married happiness.

September...sapphire for wisdom.

October.......opal for hope.

November...topaz for faithfulness.

December...tourquoise for harmony.

i found it interesting i hope you do too.

my birth month is november. so i now know what my stone means.
 
Oh I'll have to get my birth stone mine is hope so it can only be a good thing not sure about my youngest sister Hannah Spanners though - faithfulness mmmmm I'd be surprised if shes knows the meaning lol!
 
Mez I was born in August and it's just my luck to have a birth stone I've never heard of! Is Sardonyx worth anything? could be worse it could have been coal!:)
 
wayne, sardonyx is "onyx in which white layers alternate with yellow or orange ones" so it says in my dictionary hope that helps.:confused:
 
I'm in September, so mine are sapphires. I wouldn't brag too much about wisdom, though!
 
Cashman.......Amethyst is supposed to guard against drunkenness too.......and the romans used to stud their wine goblets with them so that they would be protected.
Full of useless information.

My birthstone is a pearl.........they are supposed to be tears unless they are your birthstone.

Mummiboo.......other sources do quote Peridot as the birthstone for August......so now you have a choice.

margaret- it certainly guards against drunkeness i have bin unable to have a good drink for a couple of years now lol it must mean its payback time also lol
 
I am also an amethyst. I have to say that I don't think it's anti-drunkenness properties are working very well.:D

Oh but it is, Lettie. It ensures that you don't have to spend a fortune to get drunk! ;)

me too............september .
my favourite stones are opals ..but people say that they are unlucky,,dont know why ,,
 
One web site I visited showed 7 different stones for September and 6 for August. The rest of the Months all had more than one stone.
I think you are attracted to the stone for you.
 
my birthstone is pearl for june but also is Moonstone, alexandrite, opal, so I get to pick!:cool:
