Question : #962 Category: Miscellaneous
Subject: Gemstones
Question: I've heard tales from my grandmother about the gemstone 'sapphire' and how it had 'evil powers' of sort, and that if the stone isn't deemed favorable to a person, he/she shouldn't keep it as it would bring upon a bad omen on him/her. I want to know if such a thing about the gemstone is true, and if it is, how does one determine if the stone is good or bad for oneself? Thank you for your time!
