Are you sure you want to know?
I must warn you that this knowledge will change your life. It will never be the same again.
Ok, so you've been warned...

This is going to blow your mind, but if we take the alphabet and convert the letters to numbers, A = 1, B = 2, etc. and we take the letters from HORSES, but change it to HROSES (H-ROSE, get it!?), and GEMS then we'd get to the following:
H - 1 = G
R - O = C
C + 2 = E
S - E = N
N + 1 = M
S = S

GEMS! It all makes perfect sense.
Illuminati confirmed.
