The deep red garnet, which was traditionally carried by travelers to
protect them from accidents, is said to light up the night, preventing
nightmares and inspiring love. According to legend, Noah used a garnet
lantern to help him steer the Ark after dark. Garnet, which is also
found in many other colors, is the birthstone for January.
