Ruby July Birthstone. Symbol of fertility in Kabbalah
Charm for fertility and easy labor- According to the Kabbalah, women who wish to become pregnant should crush a ruby in a drink and swallow it.
The ruby stone is attributed to the Tribe of Reuben (Ruby). His mother Leah, sent Reuben to the field to pick red mandrakes which she planned on ingesting to help her become pregnant. Kabbalah states that all limbs related to birth are red, and therefore she should take the ruby stone and wear it on her flesh to draw the power of birth upon her.
In our days, instead of drinking crushed rubies, women will traditionally wear silver necklaces (silver symbolizes charity and mercy) with natural ruby pendants. The ruby must remain in its natural state, without polishing, in order to maintain its potency for preserving pregnancy.
