Which Birthstone Reflects Your Soul?

About This Quiz

Birthstones have a remarkably long history if you ever take the time to look into it. In the book of Exodus from the Bible, it tells of a breastplate worn by the High Priest of the Israelites that featured 12 different stones. The stones could sometimes be used to determine the will of God. They were made of 12 different minerals, and each one represented one of the Tribes of Israel. The 12 months of the year and the 12 signs of the zodiac all lined up perfectly with this idea. Over time, some people believed that this might have had something to do with the foundation of the belief in — and use of — birthstones as we know it today. 

Whether the same stones were used in the breastplate or they even inspired the idea of birthstones is hard to determine, but regardless, it's clear we've placed a lot of stock in the power of stones for centuries. And with centuries of power and meaning behind each stone, there must be one that represents your soul better than all the others. If you're curious to find out which one it is, then it's time to take the quiz!
