Traditionally, a Birthstone is associated with each month of the year.
For example, the birthstone for January is a garnet, while lucky babies born in March get an aquamarine or a bloodstone as their birthstones.*
Today's gemologists, gem dealers, jewelers and retailers have adopted (and marketed) numerous gemstones as the "Birthstone(s)" for each of the 12 months.
In some cases, there may be several gemstones matched to a particular month.
So accordingly, for tonight's Net, we have selected another OMNI-QUESTION (which is basically 1 Trivia question with 3 Answers) that asks you to identify which gemstones (i.e., birthstones) are commonly linked to the current and/or upcoming three months: July, August & September.
The OMNI-ANSWER uses each letter only once -- from the non-reuseable answers of "P", "R", and "S".
For the month-sequence of July, August & September, can you match the correct birthstones with each one of the three months?
Again, please note that each answer choice should be used only once.
Omni-Question: Please match each of the following 3 Birthstones* with its corresponding "Birth-Month" -- in order -- for July, August & September.
(PLEASE NOTE: There are photos of these gemstones on our Blog here)
| Match the Gem to the Month | July = August = Sept = |
P. Peridot R. Ruby S. Sapphire |

| April = Diamond | May = Emerald | June = Pearl, Alexandrite, Moonstone |
They belong to the mineral Corundum Group.
These gems are the 2nd hardest mineral after the Diamond -- which means you are likely filing your nails (emery board) or sanding some wood (sandpaper) with non-gem quality corundum.
Only red corundum specimens are called by the name "Ruby"; while a "ruby by any other color" is called a "Sapphire".
