February

Amethyst or Onyx

amethyst pendulum bracelet Amethyst: is healing, comforting, balancing and assists in meditation or deep thinking. Need a boost in your studying? Wear some amethyst. It's a well rounded healing stone.. can't go wrong with this one.

March

Aquamarine or Bloodstone

auamarine Aquamarine: for a calming, peaceful effect, AND for courage. I encourage those of us that have a difficult time expressing ourselves to wear this.

Especially if we are experiencing anxiety or having so many thoughts running thru our heads- and we can't seem to "go with the flow".

April

Diamond or Quartz

  Quartz: crystal clear is the best to wear as an accompanying stone that amplifies the effect of the other gems it's with! Energizing and refreshing, it's pretty and clearing to wear. You aren't imagining things.. there is no picture. Clear quartz.... is clear. Come in to see some!

May

Emerald or Chrysoprase

chrysoprase chain Chrysoprase: opens your heart up to love, people, new experiences! It's hard to allow ourselves to be vulnerable and open to new relationships, or even old ones. Wear this to inspire trust in yourself, and in others.

June

Pearl or Moonstone

pearl pendant Pearl: signifies hope, charity and faith. Is it no wonder it keeps showing up at weddings? Realistically though, I think we'd benefit more by wearing it DAILY, instead of just on the first day of our marriages :) wink!

July

Ruby or Carnelian

ruby heart pendant Ruby: is great to have around... it's like having your best friend with you! It brings that same feeling of security and confidence that you get with your BFF next to you! Great for situations you feel nervous about :)

October

Opal or Tourmaline

tourmaline strands Tourmaline: comes in many different colors, but for today, I chose pink! It's a healing stone, especially for past pains we have endured. Wear this if you agree that it's time to heal, and move forward with a lightened heart and mind.

November

Topaz or Citrine

citrine necklace Citrine: the merchant's stone! We have one on our register to attract wealth and success.. not only of the financial kind because it includes emotional and spiritual abundance as well! My go-to stone for everyday wear -I feel like I can do anything and everything :)
