"Named from the Latin ruber, meaning “red,” Ruby is one of the Vedic healing gems and a major protector for family and possessions, being a powerful shield against psychic attack and vampirism of heart energy. In years gone by it was fashioned into a specific shape, a cabochon or carbuncle, and Ruby is often referred to by this name in ancient lapidaries. Ruby is one of the warning stones, said to darken when danger or illness threatens. It imparts vigor to life but might overstimulate irritable people. Ruby encourages passion for life, improving motivation and setting realistic goals."
