NECKLACES
Should you wish to purchase any of these necklaces, please send me a message. Since there is more than one specimen of some necklaces, please refer to the one you are interested in by number and name. Refer to Love is in the Earth by Melody and The Book of Stones by Robert Simmons & Naisha Ahsian for more details on the properties of the stones. Comments from myself are from my paperback book Dwell in Love II.
Almost all of these necklaces were obtained from Gemisphere, which is Michael Katz's company. If one is not from them, it will be indicated.
Michael Katz says the following on his Gemisphere website: The ideal shape for a therapeutic gemstone is the sphere. Cutting a raw gemstone crystal into a sphere exponentially increases its ability to reach and heal the deepest, energetic aspects of our being, where the root causes of disease and distress lie. Therapeutic gemstone spheres radiate an incomparable energy that can affect all dimensions of our being, physical and subtle, and hence heal and transform us on multiple levels. Michael Katz offers several extremely interesting and helpful books on his website. I once attended a Workshop he offered outside Portland, Oregon.
Amethyst chips, 4 to 7 mm, 25 inches, price $40 -- this is not a Michael Katz necklace. Melody says this is a stone of spirituality and contentment, as well as a stone of meditation. It protects against psychic attacks. Simmons and Ahsian say Divine connection. It engenders communion and communication with one's angels. Jerry Paul found amethyst to be a stone that has a quality you would feel as an energy that quickens the spirit and would inspire you to desire to share the gifts of the Father with your fellowman.
Aquamarine, 3mm, 20 inches, price $40 -- Melody says this stone provides a shielding property for the aura and the subtle bodies. It is a stone of courage and enhances one's ability for rapid intellectual response. It helps one to attune to more spiritual levels of awareness. Simmons & Ahsian say it is a cooling stone. Its energy is gentle and deeply cleansing. Jerry Paul found that Aqukamarine has an energy of light, somewhat cheerful, and it would be good to wear when energy seems to be a bit low, or when one might seem to be perhaps depressed--or not so cheerful himself. There is a very gentle sort of chuckle about it
(4) Aventurine (dark), 8mm, 25 inches, price $70 -- On his website Michael Katz says Dark Green Aventurine initiates a deep purification of the physical body, especially the vital organs. Aventurine energy permeates the body and then focuses on your most distressed organ, filling it with healing energy and encouraging it to release its accumulated disharmony. Once this organ has been uplifted, your next most distressed organ receives Aventurine's attention. Thus, organ by organ, Aventurine helps heal and purify your entire body.
(5) Bloodstone, 8mm, 30 inches, price $60 -- On his website Michael Katz says Bloodstone strengthens your immune system and keeps it alert and responsive to your body's needs. This empowerment uplifts the overall quality of your body's energy, making your body an incompatible environment for infections of all kinds. Bloodstone also removes burdens from your immune system as it facilitates the removal of toxins and enhances your cells' absorption of nutrients.
(6) Carnelian, 8mm, 27 inches, price $60 -- On his website Michael Katz says Carnelian nourishes and vitalizes your entire being, bestowing you with optimism and enthusiasm for life. The orange ray carried by Carnelian deeply relaxes your mind, emotions, and physical cells so that they can release their disharmony and disease. Carnelian enhances mental clarity and positive emotions, promoting a brighter outlook and an appreciation for your life lessons. By teaching you to balance your higher and lower energies, Carnelian helps bring your aspirations and current life path closer together.
(7) Carnelian, 8 mm, 34 inches, price $40 -- This is not a Michael Katz necklace. Melody says Carnelian stimulates analytical capabilities and precision. It protects against envy, fear, and rage. The energy of Carnelian is favorable with respect to cleansing negativity from other stones. Simmons & Ahsian say it assists in taking action to manifest one's highest goals and dreams. It lends vitality and energy to the physical body.
(9) Citrine, 7-9mm chips, 26 inches, price $200 -- On his website Michael Katz says Citrine and the yellow ray loosen your hold on all that no longer serves you, so that you may progress to the next higher state of being. Citrine unwinds tension and increases flexibility in the cells, organs, and body as a whole, thereby encouraging your body to relax and move into greater alignment. Citrine gradually opens inner hearing. It helps you fulfill your spiritual potential by encouraging you to embrace ever-higher states of consciousness.

Melody says Heliodor enables one to communicate on a higher level. It assists in the elimination of duality within one's character, leading one to the entrance toward higher knowledge. Simmons & Ahsian say it helps one to align one's will with Divine purposes. Jerry Paul found Golden Beryl to be a stone of hope, a hope that sees there is light at the end of the tunnel. It helps you to single-mindedly travel toward the light with great hope. Melody says Amethyst is a stone of spirituality and contentment, as well as a stone of meditation. It protects against psychic attacks. Simmons and Ahsian say Divine connection. It engenders communion and communication with one's angels.

Jerry Paul found that the stones of this particular necklace bring a mingling of energies, which can be focused and harmonized by your intent. It is necessary that you have an intention to do so and to set a purpose for what the energies would help you to accomplish, for it is as if a host is there at your disposal to help you, but you must ask, and you must delineate in order for them to be of assistance to you.

Patience helps you resonate with the Earth--to step back into the arms of your planet and allow things to unfold in their own time.
