DIAMOND Legend has it that the first diamond that Europeans found was in the pouch of an African Shaman. The projective powers of the diamond touch the spirituality in us all. It is protective and affords us courage and peace. It is the symbol by which many of us promise our devotion to one another. Today, the world's supply of diamonds is carefully monitored to maintain an artificially high price and make them so coveted. It is the stone of April. See also: carnelian and onyx
