Fun Zodiac Jewelry for the Month of May

Zodiac jewelry can be fun, personal and whimsical. You feel a special celestial connection to a zodiac pendant you wear, or bracelet or ring, and while some zodiac jewelry designs feature ancient iconography, others can be more modern. Like The Hollywood Reporter said, “similar to a nameplate necklace, a piece of jewelry bearing your astrological sign is a fun way to make your accessories completely personal.”

Zodiac jewelry is also popular among celebrities including Meghan Markle, who has been photographed wearing a gold and diamond constellation necklace that pays homage to her children’s signs. Model Bella Hadid, a Libra, often wears zodiac accessories, Pisces singer Rihanna has been spotted wearing a $15,000 zodiac necklace of her sign, and zodiac jewelry has also been seen on Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner, among others.

Those born between May 1 and 21 are considered a Taurus, which is an earth sign represented by the bull. According to Vogue, Tauruses are famously “strong-headed, dependable and diligent with grace.”

Allure magazine gave some further insight into a Taurus. The publication said: “It’s true that in their perfect world, Taureans would spend all day bathing in a tub overflowing with essential oils. At the same time, these earth signs know the value of a dollar. Taureans aren’t afraid to roll up their sleeves and work hard to earn big rewards. They’re ambitious, focused, and resilient and they feel most secure when steadily putting money into a savings account.”

May babies born May 21 to June 20 will be Geminis, which is an air sign symbolized by celestial twins. They’re “spontaneous, playful, adorably erratic” and “driven by insatiable curiosity.” Their “intelligent, adaptable, and extroverted personality, represented by twins, is equally beautiful in the form of minimal stud earrings and a pendant as it is an embossed ring or diamond-accented charm,” Vogue said.

Allure explained: “Because of Geminis’ intrinsic duality, they’re often falsely misrepresented as two-faced. In reality, however, Gemini rarely has a hidden agenda. Playful and intellectually curious, Gemini is constantly juggling a variety of passions, hobbies, careers, and friend groups. They are the social butterflies of the zodiac: These quick-witted twins can talk to anyone about anything. Find them buzzing between happy hours, dinner parties, and dance floors.”

The 12 zodiac signs are divided into four triplicities and three quadruplicities. Triplicities refer to the four sign elements, and there are three zodiac signs in each group: fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius), earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) and water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces). According to Allure, “fire signs are passionate and exuberant, earth signs are practical and grounded, air signs are intellectual and curious, and water signs are intuitive and emotional.”

Quadruplicities have to do with a zodiac sign’s qualities and where each occurs within its season. Allure explained that Cardinal (Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn) take place at the beginning of a new season, and for that reason they are known to be perfect for taking initiatives; Fixed (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius) occur in the middle of seasons and, similar to the term fixed,” are steady forces of nature; and Mutable (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, or Pisces) occur at the end of a season, and are easily adaptable to change and transformation.
