This Tree of Life necklace is adorned with stones representing the Chakras. Perfect for a gift, or for using during your own practice, this necklace will help you delve deeper into each chakra as you explore their energies.

What Exactly Are The Chakras?

Acting as your body’s energy system, chakras are linkage points between the physical body and emotional bodies that make up the energy field around you. The chakras are located along the spine, running vertically and centered across your body. We have more energy centers in our bodies than we can count, but the seven main chakras are the ones universally recognized. Each chakra corresponds to a different color and purpose, and allow us to thrive when they are balanced.

Whether we consider ourselves earth-spirited, forest dwellers, or simply a romantic-at-heart, many things come to mind when we think of the moon.

It might be magick, love, or deities like Selene and Baba Yaga.

But, depending on the moon’s phase, we might also imagine the Triple Goddess. This sacred archetype represents the hidden power of the matriarchy and the Divine Feminine aspect of the psyche.

Within the Triple Goddess, we find the Maiden, Mother, and Crone. Much has been written about these enchanting ladies, so we’ll spare you the details. The most important thing to keep in mind is that each one is unique, but together they represent a person’s journey from childhood to old age, and beyond. The Triple Goddess shares lessons about birth, growth, and death, and reminds us that the answers we seek await in the waxing, full, and waning phases of the moon.

Citrine is a beautiful sunny stone said to harness the power of light to help manifest goals and desires. Citrine is also known as the Success Stone because it is said to bring success, prosperity, and abundance in one's business as well as personal life. Wear this necklace when you are looking for an uplifting energy or when you are feeling blue.

Rose Quartz: The love stone, the heart stone, the stone of universal love. Rose quartz encourages unconditional love. This stone helps in strengthening one's relationships at home, in the workplace, and most importantly with one's self. Rose quartz works to open the heart, thus making it a good choice in working through matters which tend to close the heart; loss, grief, uncertainty, trauma, heartache. Rose Quartz neutralizes negative thought forms and creates space for forgiveness, acceptance, and growth.

Clear Quartz: Clear quartz, also known as the “master healer” due to its ability to magnify healing vibrations. Clear quartz is known for absorbing, storing, and regulating energy while balancing and revitalizing the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual planes. Clear quartz is extremely popular for its ability to amplify any energy surrounding or being put into it. For example, intentions, people, crystals, and other items all can be charged from a clear quartz. Additionally, quartz will stimulate the immune system and bring the body into balance, as its properties connect and aid all chakras.

Amazonite: Resembling deep and ancient waters, Amazonite soothes the spirit and calms the soul. Filtering information passing through the brain, and combining intellect with intuition, it allows you to see both sides of an argument and reach your own conclusions, supporting self-determination.It is particularly rejuvenating to the Heart and Throat Chakras, enhancing loving communication on all levels.

Green Quartz is known for it's deep green color with specks of red and yellow. This stone may be used for opening and stabilizing the heart chakra and is said to have the power to transform negative energy into positive. Green Quartz should be cleansed often, either in a salt soak or smoke, as it absorbs all negative energy it encounters.

This necklace features a green quartz point on a copper 18 inch chain.

A tigers eye formed in the protective shape of a triangle is combined with a labradorite oval and crescent moon. This powerful talisman contains multiple protection elements while honoring the Goddess and the divine feminine. 

Measures 2 - 2.5 inches and is attached to a 24 inch chain.

Selene is the Titan Goddess of the Moon. You may come upon Selene as she charts her horse and chariot across the skies, accompanied by her winged horses. She wears the glow of a moon and a cloak. Work with the phases of the moon while wearing our Moon Phase Ring.

For as long as humans have occupied this planet, the moon has played an integral role in the development of societies and cultural identities. For many of us, each moon phase carries a unique energy, but together they form a roadmap.

 This map is not linear, but cyclical in nature. It’s filled with low valleys, staggering peaks, and plenty of dead ends that leave us void of course.

These emotional highs and lows are not dissimilar to that which we experience on a day-to-day basis. Depending on our character, this volatility can feel exciting, scary, or frustrating in a world that insists that success is born from consistency. The moon shows us an alternate path—one that encourages a hefty dose of passion for balancing logic, stillness for heightening creativity, and quiet reflection for laser-focused intentions.

With dedication, our relationship with the moon offers a glimpse into the waxing and waning aspects of the psyche and fosters a unique connection with the cosmos.

It is our wish that when you wear this lunar phase necklace that you consider your own roadmap. 2020 has hardly taken its first breath, but this new decade is ripe with opportunity and awaiting your first step. Embrace change, listen to your emotions and look forward to the magick of new beginnings.

We named our Achelois earrings after the beloved Greek goddess by the same name. As a moon deity, Achelois offered comfort and divine healing to her followers. This makes perfect sense when we understand that her name translates to “she who washes away the pain.”

The Achelois Earrings have delicate crystal quartz points that dangle from the center of a hammered gold circle. Shamans, healers, psychics, and energy workers refer to clear quartz as the “Master Healer.” They have relied on this stone for generations to diagnose and treat physical or emotional ailments.

Nordic Runes on a 20" Chain, sterling silver.

Algiz – Algiz translates literally to Elk. This rune is the archetypal higher self. The Elk is the king of the forest. Algiz teaches us to tap into that inner wisdom and divinity that we all posses. Algiz is also associated with The Valkyries, the female winged warriors of Norse mythology. To work with Algiz, imagine yourself as a Valkyrie. When you spread your wings, where will you fly?  

Eihwaz – Eihwaz literally translates to Yew. The Yew was believed to be the World Tree. When this rune appears we can work with initiation in a multiplicity of ways. Eihwaz is timeless, it is mysterious, and it can teach us about spiritual becoming. To work with Eihwaz meditate on your past lives, deepen your commitment to your practice, and consider eternity. 

Ansuz – Ansuz is the rune of the Gods. This rune is symbolic of divine power, of inspiration, of god-like presence, the intellectual, and also our ancestors. When Ansuz appears it is asking us to tap into our own creative wisdom. Ansuz allows us to be magnetic. Through this rune we can learn to listen to our own inner story, power, and voice. To work with Ansuz open a book, work with the breath, channel, and read poetry.

 Dagaz – Dagaz is a rune that works with time. This is the rune of realization. When this rune appears to us it asks us to awaken, or experience an awakening in ourselves. Dagaz looks like a balancing act, but really it is about staying centered, while calmly surveying the horizon. When we balance between points, looking in both directions at once, what inspiration are we able to uncover? Dagaz is also a gateway of sorts. When we pass through Dagaz, or look through the lens of Dagaz, we may find that our perspectives have shifted, which is a beautiful thing. 

Laguz – Laguz translates to ocean or water, which is a nod to our unconscious or subconscious. Water is also the beginning or the root of all things. We all came from the water. This rune guides us to listen to the liminal and to dive into our dreams. When this rune appears, it’s a good moment for us to tap into the mystical side of ourselves. It’s a reminder to trust our intuition as well. How can we better listen to our own knowing? To work with this rune, study clairvoyance, intuitive magic, channeling, and dream work.  

Representing the 5 elements of Earth, Air, Fire Water & Spirit; the pentagram is a well known and sacred symbol of the earth spirited. 

Necklace is .925 sterling silver.

Wearing blue howlite encourages a person to communicate their truth. Howlite wants to activate our throat chakra, whether it be through speaking, singing, or another vocal activity. Speaking our truth can feel intimidating (especially if it doesn’t align with societal norms), but even amid chaos, howlite envelops us in a blanket of calm. As an attunement stone, howlite reminds us that if our thoughts aren’t currently evolving, then neither is the soul.

The Helm of Awe is easily one of the most powerful and intriguing symbols in Norse Mythology. For centuries its 8-pointed design has been drawn, etched, and worn during rituals to strike fear into the heart of enemies. Norse elders claim that working with the Helm of Awe expands psychic abilities, allowing a person to penetrate the ethereal boundaries of others. Manipulating the thoughts and actions of their enemies gave Norse people a supernatural layer of protection from anyone who wished them harm.

If you’re familiar with Germanic runes, you may notice that the eight arms of the Helm of Awe closely resemble the Algiz and Isa runes.

This is not a coincidence.

The Algiz (or Elhaz) rune is intimately linked with divine protection, creativity, and the willingness to act. It asks that we reflect upon the tools that are readily available and use accordingly. Whereas Algiz is prodding us to spring into action, Isa tells us to pause, get grounded, and purvey our surroundings. It’s a reminder that important details are often overlooked when moving too quickly. Slow down, take a breath, and consider that there might be vital information hiding just out of sight.

As an ally to the heart, throat, and crown chakras, Mother of Pearl filters distractions that might otherwise impair our upward ascension. With fewer distractions, we’re able to think more clearly and process information with a deeper level of understanding. It’s no wonder that Mother of Pearl’s iridescent exterior rivals that of the moon, both this crystal and our lunar guide share secrets of mystical realms that extend beyond this reality.

In tarot, the Moon can represent a time or situation of deception or unknowing the full truth. Just the darkness of the new moon phase may appear that there is no moon at all, she is constant. This card and this pendant reminds us not to take everything at face value and to trust your instincts and intuition at all times.

Chain and pendant are 14k gold plated, chain measures 22 inches and has an additional extender.

With our human bodies tied to land, it’s easy to forget that there is a mystical world hidden within the depths of our oceans. There’s the Loch Ness Monster, The Kraken, and a long list of sea nymphs and deities that rule this realm, but perhaps none of the stories are as captivating as that of the Sirens.

The Sirens are a sisterhood of elusive mermaids who use their beautiful singing voices to lure sailors to unsafe waters. Modern stories describe Sirens as being half-person, half-fish, but long ago, Sirens were believed to be half-human, half-bird. After Persephone’s abduction by Hades, Demeter is said to have gifted wings to the Sirens so they could assist in the search for her daughter.

Apatite is a stone of manifestation. It develops psychic gifts and spiritual attunement, deepens meditation, and aids in communication and self-expression on all levels. It increases motivation, builds up energy reserves, and encourages extroversion.

Raw apatite stones adorn a silver chain that hands equal on both sides of the ear lobe. Measures approximately 2 inches on each side.

October 2020: Tibetan Earrings

October’s North of Stella is a pair of dangling silver earrings, expertly crafted by artisans from the mystical mountains of Tibet.

***

If you’ve ever felt called to hike an overgrown wooded path, or scale a jagged cliffside in search of forgotten caves, and especially if you’ve ever set out to reach the top of a mountainous peak, have you ever stopped to wonder where or who that desire came from?

Well, wild ones, there’s a reason for that…

Nature spirits are all around us. They are private creatures, preferring to communicate through subtle messages carried by the wind and scattered amongst the trees. They speak through birdsong, changes in weather, and if they have something important to tell us, through silence.

In Tibet, where the rugged peaks of the Himalayas stand tall and imposing, mountain gods are the protectors of the wild landscape. Some, like the Wind Horse and Snow Lion, are famous. They symbolize courage, strength, and offer good fortune to the community.

But others, like those that reside on Mount Kailash, are elusive and far less inviting.

Mount Kalash is one of the most sacred mountains in the world, nicknamed the Stairway to Heaven. Ancient scriptures claim that Mount Kailash is home to Lord Shiva, the guardian of nature and personal liberation. With the help of the mountain gods, he dutifully protects the secrets that reside at the peak.

***

For those who long to communicate with the cryptic forces of nature, it’s easy to see why the Tibetan landscape has long been a focus of divine connection. But whether you’re an adventure seeker in real life or dreamland, we hope that our Rainy Day Earrings remind you of all the secrets within the natural the world—many of which are hiding in plain sight.

 Earrings measure 4 inches.

Our Pyramid ring was chosen as a nod to the ancient civilizations that revered this geometric shape. It is believed the pyramids of Egypt were deep healing chambers as their alignment to the stars and shape create a powerful energy vortex. Native Americans created their tee-pees in this shape, South Americans created their temples in this shape and many churches around the world implement the pyramid in their architecture.

In Celtic tradition, the “infinity knot” or “endless knot” represents eternity,
undying or unending. While this symbol can represent life, it also is used to
represent friendship, love, freedom, loyalty and a myriad of other sentiments
that endure.

The design itself is always one thread, one line and one woven loop. There
is no end and no beginning. This symbolizes how life, eternity and the after
life are all connected.

The designs were first seen in 3BC and can be found in art,
manuscripts and architecture. They are found in Roman mosaics, Russian
literature, Ethiopian art, Medieval era & Islamic art. It is believed
the knot traveled its way through Europe, making its way to Ireland &
the Scottish Highlands.

Celtic knots or “mystic knots” as they are also called, were exchanged between
lovers as amulets of affection the way we now exchange rings in marriage.

Your necklace is made of .925 sterling silver and was inspired by the
stunning green hills of Scotland. Our travels took us through abandoned
castles, thick forests, down cobblestone streets and inside warm pubs.
