Agate is mined in Idar-Oberstein in Germany mostly, where it has been mined for over 450 years, but it is naturally found all over the world.
Agate is said to have a powerful beneficial effect on emotions It is believed that this stone can cure the sting of scorpion and also cure people bitten by snake. This stone helps in the promotion of honesty and stamina as well as relief from insomnia and stomach aches. The wearer of this stone will be kept calm and focused if they were born under the zodiac sign of Gemini. Keep this stone with you when making important decisions. For people born in September, agate is the birthstone associated with this month. Agate Jewelry is beautiful.
Agate is thought to be the best stone no matter the clothing because it comes in quite a variety of colors. Found among the colors of agate stones are soft pink, rust red, creamy white, deep black, and sometimes even shades of blue. The unique banding of color in each stone is called a drusy (or druzy.) Lapidaries often cut a small part of the drusy out of the stone and this part is then sold in jewelry stores or by artisans who handcraft jewelry.
