The word "opal" comes from Latin or Greek and means "precious stone" - and not without reason. These gems, in all their variations and occurrences, are more sought after today than ever before! Whether as white or black opal - their sparkle is unmistakable and unique at the same time.
Opals have a very positive effect on the psyche and are therefore also known as particularly important healing stones. They work against inhibitions and mental blockages and are even said to alleviate depression.
The opal is considered an important main stone for the zodiac signs Pisces and Cancer. It is also the birthstone of October.
