Why these stones suit Taurus
Emerald (Zamurd) — Zamurd
Emerald is beryl (beryllium aluminium silicate) with a hardness of 7.5–8 on the Mohs scale, bluish-green to vivid grass green. In astrology it is linked with Mercury (Budh) and recommended for Taurus, Gemini and Virgo (May birthstone). It is worn on the little finger of the right hand, set in gold or silver, first worn on a Wednesday morning. Price is set by colour (a vivid, evenly saturated green), clarity (inclusions — the "jardin" — are normal), carat weight, origin (Swat and Colombian stones are prized) and the amount of oil treatment.
Rose Quartz — Billaur
Rose Quartz is silicon dioxide with a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, pale to deep pink. In astrology it is linked with Venus and recommended for Taurus and Libra. It is worn on a pendant, ring, bracelet or tasbeeh. Price is set by clarity, size, cut and any special inclusions such as golden rutile needles.
