STONES of the SEASONS

The four seasons are each associated with one of the four Precious Gems. Some sources suggest alternate stones, usually with colors appropriate to northern hemisphere seasons (such as citrine or Golden Topaz for autumn).

SPRING: Emerald

Patience, understanding, & foresight

SUMMER: Ruby

Love, success, integrity, passion, & promise

AUTUMN: Sapphire

Truth, sincerity, commitment, & loyalty

WINTER: Diamond

Invincibility, clarity, purity, & eternal love
