Zodiac & June: Gemini and Cancer Birthstones

June spans two zodiac signs — Gemini (May 21–June 20) and Cancer (June 21–July 22). Alexandrite's colour change mirrors Gemini's dual nature, while moonstone's lunar energy resonates with moon-ruled Cancer. Pearl brings grounding wisdom to both. Here's how June's three birthstones connect to each sign.
