Garnet - January Birthstone lore and history

It is said that King Solomon wore a large red garnet along with eleven other magical gems (representing the 12 steps of Jacob's Ladder) in his breast plate to help him win battles and to keep him in touch with the deity.
In the 13th century, they were worn to repel insects and evil spirits and the evil eye of others.
In Egyptian times they were taken into the tombs with the dead as payment to the gods of the nether worlds and for their passage through the nether world safely.
