Gemma is a name for the star Alpha Coronae Borealis.
Alpha Coronae Borealis is a part of a section of stars called Behenian fixed stars.
These stars seemed to be important to middle ages occult tradisions.
And Bree is really into stars (and occult tradisions?)
Don't know what to make out of this but..

Alpha Coronae Borealis (α CrB / α Coronae Borealis) is a binary star in the constellation Corona Borealis. It also has the traditional names Gemma or Alphekka or Alphecca.
α CrB is an eclipsing binary system similar to Algol (β Per). Its period is 17.36 days, with magnitude varying from +2.21 to +2.32, which is hardly noticeable to the unaided eye.
α CrB is believed to be a stream star member of the Ursa Major Moving Group.
A large disc of dust and material has been shown to exist around Alphecca, prompting speculation of a similar planetary/proto-planetary system to that currently assumed around Vega. How the binary-star dynamic would affect such a system is the subject of intense debate.
The name Gemma is Latin for "jewel". The other traditional name comes from Arabic al-fakkah, "the broken" (ring of stars), from فكّ fakk "unsealed"). In astrology it is one of the Behenian fixed stars and has the symbol (picture).

Maybe Sam "unsealed" Gemma and that's when she left the commune.
