Since ancient times, Ruby has been considered the stone of passion and strength. Its location is expected in two points: the first chakra (root) when you want to implement sexual and physical energy in general. The second point is the fourth chakra (heart) when there is a need to activate love for everything around us, whether it is people or life! It is a balancer of states of hyperactivity. It gives impulsiveness and spontaneity and strength to face periods of adversity where a lot of courage is required. It helps spleen, adrenals and blood circulation. An important tip for this beautiful gem is not to wear it for prolonged periods because it could cause overloading of the energy circuit.

Rubies are made from the mineral corundum or aluminum oxide . They form beneath the Earth's surface when subjected to extreme heat and pressure. Corundum is composed of oxygen and aluminum atoms tightly packed together. Typically, the result is a colorless substance. However, when some of the aluminum atoms are replaced by other minerals or substances, the stone can take on other colors. In particular, the presence of chromium creates a deep red color. The rare orange and pink shades of ruby ​​are created by the presence of chromium and ferric iron. If 1% of the aluminum atoms are replaced by chromium atoms, the ruby ​​takes on a deep red color.

However, the presence of silica or iron prevents the formation of a ruby . Both are very common in the earth's crust, making rubies rare to find. Also, corundum is a rare mineral.

In their natural, raw form, rubies are dull, greasy looking stones. But when cut and polished, their high luster is dazzling (comparable to that of diamonds ) and their rich red color is pleochroic. Pleochroic color varies when viewed from different directions.
