Legend says that one day while Venus was sleeping Eros/Cupid cut her fingernails and left the clippings scattered on the ground. Because no part of a heavenly body can die, the gods turned them into stone, which later becomes known as onyx. Today, the stone is a symbolic for many occasions. Onyx is the Mystical birthstone for the month of December, as well as the birthstone for the Zodiac sign of Leo. Onyx is also given on the 7th and 10th wedding anniversary.
