Opal Dreams: The Mystical October Birthstone

October nights have a magic in them; these days have their own beauty when the season is about to change, and the air becomes crisp. The world changes at its own pace, and with it the life goes on. The October birthstone , opal, perfectly aligns with the vibe of the month. 

For Aanya, the October birthstone opal ring that she wears is not just a gem that embodies dreams, mystery, love and creativity, but also the blessings of her grandmother. 

Recently, on her 18th birthday, her grandmother gifted her an opal ring, saying that this stone represents her and her life, and that it's her birthstone and hence will bring her love, beauty and charm. 

Her grandmother told her how an opal is the stone of planet Venus and will bring her the blessings of this planet of feminine energies. From Navratan, the online gem bazaar, she had ordered this beautiful ring for her and if she wants she can recustomize it, exchange it and if needed resize it as well. 

Aanya was so happy to see such a gorgeous gift as a blessing which she can always wear as well. 

“Its said to guard the one who embraces it, protect from evil energies, clear the mind, and carry your dreams well, keep you faith in it, child.” - her grandmother had told her. 

Aanya didn't think much about the powers of the gemstone , she was so mesmerized by its beauty alone, that she wore it instantly. As she drifted to sleep that night, she dreamt of the opal only, wearing it on with a beautiful dress and presenting herself as Miss world, which was her goal too. 

In the morning, she remembered half the dream but didnt gave it much attention. Her dream was more a goal and she kept on wearing the gem and worked towards her goal. Though she did found herself most of the times at rightly placed at the right time. She started getting the opportunities of meeting the right people who can help her get ahead and she started taking active participation in the competitions which can lead her to her major goal.  Dreams are more than fantasies if you work for them. Whenever she felt stuck, she used to touch her ring and try to remember what her grandmother will say and how will she guide. 

One fine day, while she was prepping for a competition she broke her ring by mistake and suddenly became very concerned and anxious. She called up her grandmother instantly and asked her to get the ring fixed as the ring is her lucky charm and her competition is near. 

So, the next day, her grandmother took her to Navratan, from where she got the ring, they fixed the ring within a few hours on the special request of Aanya. Aanya was so happy and relieved and went to her compete being her complete self and confidently to win the competition. 

As she won the title of her Miss State, she had a sudden sense of deja vu, being on the stage. Then looked at her ring and knew how much luck and fortune this gorgeous stone has brought her. 

She thanked god and the powers of the universe and opal stone as well as Navratan, from where this beautiful gemstone came to her life.
