Diamonds attract wealth and also bring good luck to the wearer but at the same time boost his ego too. Hence a self- obsessed person should preferably not flaunt too many diamonds as it could inflate his ego, furthermore. Diamonds are the hardest naturally occuring mineral on the planet, making them very durable. So they are mostly preferred for wedding bands and engagement rings since durability (of the gem) in a subtle way speaks of long-lasting relations that can stand the test of time. Rubies and emeralds are the next choice when it comes to couple rings because of their gorgeous colours and again because they are very hard gemstones. Rubies are mostly red and sometimes pink and reddish brown in colour. The Ruby, stone, also known as Manik is a jewel of the sun and is a very auspicious gem. They are one of the most popular stones after diamonds. Men and women, both prefer wearing ruby rings because of their eye -catching red hue and also because they are durable.

Gems also work as protectors. The ruby stone and emerald stone ward off evil spirits. Sapphires also protect you from negative energy and witchcraft. Agate or Aqeek guards you against danger and anyone who wishes to protect themself from the evil eye and black magic should wear Aqeek.
