Pearl is the official birthstone for the month of June. It is also the
birthstone for the Sun Signs of Gemini and Cancer. Fresh water pearls are given
on the 1st wedding anniversary. Pearls are also given on the 3rd, 12th and 30th
anniversaries.
A pearl is formed when some sort of small object, typically a parasite,
bit of sand or piece of organic matter, becomes embedded in the tissue of an
oyster or mollusk. In response, the mantle tissue of the mollusk secretes a
lustrous substance called nacre, a combination of crystalline and organic
substances. As the nacre builds up in layers, it surrounds the irritant and
eventually forms a pearl. This process of building a solid pearl can take up to
seven or eight years.
Cultured pearls, by contrast, are those in which humans take a helping
hand. By actually inserting a foreign object into the tissue of an oyster or
mollusk, pearl farmers can induce the creation of a pearl. The same natural
process of pearl creation takes place. Today more than 99% of all pearls sold
worldwide are cultured pearls.
Pearls vary in color from white to those with a hint of color, often
pink, to brown or black. Each coloration will depend on the type of mollusk and
the water where the mollusk lived. Because the nacre is organic, pearls are very
sensitive to extreme heat, acids, dryness, and humidity. Care should be taken
when storing them.
Pearls are considered to offer the power of love, money, protection, and
luck. Pearls are thought to give wisdom through experience, to quicken the laws
of karma and to cement engagements and love relationships. They are thought to
keep children safe. Early Chinese myths told of pearls falling from the sky when
dragons fought. Ancient legend says that pearls were thought to be the tears of
the gods and the Greeks believed that wearing pearls would promote marital bliss
and prevent newlywed women from crying.
