Rubies are an ideal stone to help you embrace the integrity and courage of a zen warrior, the passion and happiness of youth, and the wealth of nobility.
Rubies are said to be a protective stone, helping to keep you and your possessions safe.
What a fantastic and beautiful reminder of love and life!
I love this quote from Judy Hall's book, The Crystal Bible:
"[Ruby] encourages 'following your bliss'. This stone is a powerful shield against psychic attack and vampirism of heart energy."
Woah! We all need that kind of protection, regardless of what we're celebrating.
In the necklaces above, one 3mm ruby contrasts the bright silver, similar to an emblem that wards off the evil eye in some cultures, it embraces the protective power of rubies. Another version adds clarity of purpose provided by a 2mm recycled diamond, doubling your gemstone power.
In the ring below, I set a 3mm ruby next to a 2mm anthill garnet to highlight the subtle variations in hue between pink stones and capture the feelings of prosperity and passion that ruby imbues.
I use rubies from Wyoming in my jewelry, sourced from a supplier who only sells fair-mined and fair-trade gems. I prefer their raw earthy tones and depth of color paired with a healthy conscience.
