A ruby ring, chosen as an engagement and wedding ring, symbolizes constancy. In tandem with a diamond, such jewelry has the strongest energy, which will constantly warm up the feelings of the couple.
What to consider when choosing a ring:
· Age. It is advisable for young ladies to choose jewelry with small inserts, but for older ladies rings with massive stones are suitable.
· Type of appearance. Rich red rubies are suitable for girls with warm and cold color types.
· Cut. Determines the stone's ability to refract and reflect color, creating shine. Here it is important to look at the proportions of the ruby, the type of mounting and the design of the jewelry.
· Transparency. It does not characterize the quality of the stone, but significantly affects its price.
· Size. A properly sized ring will not fall off or cause discomfort when worn.

The middle finger represents a person's personality as well as our goals in life. Located in the center, it symbolizes balance, values and responsibility. Wearing a ring on it will help you find balance in life. It also allows a person to distinguish right from wrong. Wearing it on the passive hand will increase responsibility and seriousness. And when active, it will help balance and harmonize your life. Preferred stones for the middle finger are quartz, moonstone, and coral. But there are a few more recommendations.
In order to find success in your career or creativity, or improve your financial situation, you need to wear a red garnet on your active hand. It is best for Capricorn to wear blue topaz. This will help him cope with mood swings or angry outbursts. It will also be a good talisman against illnesses.
In order to strengthen intuition and achieve success in financial matters, Taurus needs to wear a ring with an emerald.
Palmists do not recommend wearing ruby rings on the middle finger. Because a ring with it cools passion, and a person loses the ability to enjoy physical intimacy.
Determining the size correctly
In order not to make a mistake and accurately select the size, you should use a ring gauge - a special device that is available in every jewelry store. If you do not have the opportunity to use such a tool, you can measure your fingers using a strip of paper, rope or lace.
· Wrap the thread around your finger so that it fits snugly on all sides, but does not pull on the skin.
· Use a pen or marker to mark the intersection points of the pieces of thread/strip of paper. Cut off the excess ends.
· Measure the length of the segment in millimeters. Divide the resulting value by 3.14.

How to wear a Save and Preserve ring correctly
Orthodox Christians in Russia wear Save and Save rings on any finger, but most often it is the middle finger of the right hand. This ring should remind you of prayer, which means it can be worn on any convenient finger.
Religious rings (go to SUNLIGHT catalog)
Men wear a church ring on the thumb of their right hand - with this hand they cross themselves in church, which means they remember the meaning of the decoration. A woman should also wear the Save and Preserve ring on her right hand, because among Orthodox Christians the entire right side of the body is considered closer to God. But Catholics usually wear prayer rings on their left hands, since they cross themselves differently.
How to distinguish natural stone from imitation
It is quite difficult, but possible, to understand that this is really a ruby, and not, for example, a spinel or garnet, without the help of special equipment and skills.
It is important to understand that absolutely transparent gemstones are extremely rare in nature: under multiple magnification, natural inclusions will almost always be noticeable. This suggests that the ruby has not been refined. Therefore, small cracks, stripes - all this indicates the natural origin of the stone.
If you place a natural stone on glass, you will notice a pronounced reflection, and at the point of contact with the glass surface, the glow will appear stronger. If possible, view the ruby in natural light. Under direct sunlight, the edges will shine brighter, and the reverse side will look more matte.
Rings with large stones of natural origin are sold together with certificates, which indicate information about carat value, origin, purity, and color.
Little finger
The little finger is responsible for everything related to relationships. It can seriously affect the situation in society. It also reflects our attitude towards other people. Wearing a ring on your little finger can improve all communication related issues. Pinky rings on the active hand help in self-expression. They can turn you into an excellent speaker. And on a passive one, they will make you a natural listener and strengthen your intuition. The best pinky finger stones should be yellow or green in color. These are topaz, emerald (by the way, this stone is best suited for the little finger), as well as yellow or green garnets.
