April showers are here which means that April babies have an exciting variety of birthstones to choose from, including natural diamonds, Herkimer diamonds, clear crystal quartz and white topaz. While April is not my birth month, I can't resist the neutrality and clarity of these gems, and besides, what girl doesn't like to wear diamonds?!

White Topaz:
White Topaz symbolizes hope, affection, and peace, and is known to have protective energies. Ancient Romans believed that White Topaz was linked with Helios, their Sun God, which would help improve their eyesight. In addition to that, it's been known to reduce stress, help with insomnia, and improve mental clarity and thinking ability.
Clear Quartz:
Clear quartz is thought to be a 'Universal Crystal' since all colors in the light spectrum are contained within it. Unique in its beauty, this stone facilitates healing and brings clarity to the mind. It clarifies your intention and magnifies it, helping you manifest what you desire. It also has the power to heighten the energies of any other stone. Luckily, it's neutral color allows you to pair it with anything!
Herkimer Diamonds:
Herkimer Diamonds are the most powerful of all quartz crystals. Being doubly terminated, they have the ability to not only transmit their own energies, but also receive spiritual energy and amplify and focus it intently.
Raw Diamonds:
Last but not least, diamonds are the king of gemstones and the ultimate symbol of wealth, accumulation and manifestation of abundance in all areas of your life. They are said to inspire creativity & endurance, and foster strong relationships, love and mental clarity.
