For April birthday celebrators, the diamond holds incredible meaning. For example, the ancient Greeks and Romans believed diamonds were tears of the Gods and splinters from falling stars. Then, the Hindus attributed amazing powers to these precious stones, and went so far as to place diamonds in the eyes of statues to show their preciousness. Not only was it believed that diamonds could bring luck and success, but also that they could counter the effects of astrological events. Plato even wrote about diamonds as living beings, embodying celestial spirits. Finally, there are some who wear diamonds as charms believing in their ability to heighten sexual prowess and attract others.
