home >> store >> crystal gallery >> jewelry in silver >> Vera Cruz Fancy Pendant This lovely Vera Cruz Amethyst Pendant with its light filled deep violet color has been hand crafted and is set into sterling silver. We had some of our nicest Vera Cruz wands set into 2 different original designs made exclusively for Satya Center by a very talented jeweler we met at one of the crystal shows we attend. This piece has a style all of its own, it is at once contemporary with style references to ancient Persia. Each piece is unique & the dimensions & weight & coloration of the stones will vary somewhat from piece to piece. Each one, of course, is guaranteed to be beautiful & meet with your satisfaction. This pendant will aid in imparting the metaphysical healing qualities of amethyst right into the body. We recommend wearing it with a chain which is approximately 22-24 inches in length. Vera Cruz amethyst has a tendency to be of lighter shades and typically clear. The darker stones are considered more powerful and more valuable. Vera Cruz amethyst comes from mines that were basically played out ten years ago, according to our wholesale sources. Because we prize the ultra-high frequency vibrations of this unique crystal, we have sought out a source for these light and bright amethyst wands, and we will be presenting a selection to our customers over the next few months. Amethyst is the gemstone variety of quartz, produced by the presence of manganese in clear quartz crystal. Increments of iron within the crystal as it formed vary the color of the amethyst, which ranges from pale lilac to deep purple. Amethyst has been popular with royalty, sages, mystics and magicians for centuries. “Fine amethysts are featured in the British Crown Jewels and were also a favorite of Catherine the Great and Egyptian royalty,” according to the International Colored Gemstone Association. “Leonardo Da Vinci wrote that amethyst was able to dissipate evil thoughts and quicken the intelligence,” according to the ICGA website. “Because amethyst was thought to encourage celibacy and symbolize piety, amethyst was very important in the ornamentation of Catholic and other churches in the Middle Ages. It was, in particular, considered to be the stone of bishops and they still often wear amethyst rings,” continues the ICGA. “In Tibet, amethyst is considered to be sacred to Buddha and rosaries are often fashioned from it.” Amethyst is said to enhance spirituality, raise the vibrational level of the holder, cleanse the astral, etheric and physical bodies, and produce a peaceful, tranquil state of mind. According to Melody’s fine book Love is in the Earth, amethyst “can be used to protect against psychic attacks; the energy of the attack being transmitted to the transmitted to the universe after its transformation into a positive, loving energy. Amethyst is classically the stone of sobriety, purity and chastity and would be an excellent stone for those with tendencies toward addictive behavior, or for those spiritual seekers intent upon transformation through the progressive purification of mind, body and aura. As with all of our crystals and jewelry at SatyaCenter, these are first cleaned and cleared with Reiki energy, color and prayer, and then given a Reiki attunement. | |||||||
