Emerald Rings

Emerald Ring Symbolism and "Myth"

Because of its long history and its association with numerous civilizations, the emerald has had a multitude of powers or traits ascribed to it. These would change or mutate through the centuries as dictated by the needs or situations of the times and people. The only constant was the emerald's hold on the beholder.

It was said that the wearer of an emerald was given the gift of second sight. One's memory, intelligence and eloquence was also said to improve by wearing an emerald. This would seem to go hand in hand with second sight. One of the more specific properties of the emerald – perhaps originating from the needs of one specific individual – was that a woman wearing the stone would be immune from epilepsy.

In the area of romance, the emerald was said to register the degree of love between two people. It also had the ability to discover falsehoods and false friends as well as true friends.
