: morning: does anyone know anything about Opals being bad luck if it is not my birthstone? Thanks, online cbod
I've heard that it is bad luck only if you buy it for yourself if it's not your birthstone. Otherwise it's okay. The bad luck story comes from a novel (I forgot the name). In the story, a woman had an opal and so on... That's where the bad luck story started. I am usually very superstitious, and I wouldn't worry about it.
