Lunar Eclipse

Product Details The moon doesn't consider one phase better than another; she just equally glows, equally stunning at each turn. Why should we be any different.  - Christen Rodgers   This bracelet embodies the phases of the moon... Our society, ancient and modern, has been heavily influenced by the phases of the moon in our traditions, cultures and beliefs. No one can deny the fact that the moon exerts a great influence on our lives in cycles. You can guide parts of your life understanding the phases of the moon and how it can influence us. Even though the moon is the closet body in space to us, we tend to give the sun more credit and it is so easy to simply forget about the moons influences. The impact of the moon is more subtle yet it is still there. Tourmalated Quartz - Protective stone, and brings balance and inner strength.

Meaning of the Moon Phases  Darkness and no moon – The dark moon is a time for ridding oneself of bad habits, and for exploring our darkest recesses and understanding our angers and passions. Dark moon is a time of protection, both physical and spiritual, and it is the most powerful time to banish negativity, or banish that which we no longer need. A time of exploring new ideas and quiet contemplation of life. It is known as the phase of the mind. New Moon - This is the time to take what you learned in the dark phase and put it into action. It should be a time of building your life and will give way to new beginnings for love and romance, health or job hunting. Also, the sun and moon are exerting their gravitational influence from a similar side of the earth pulling the tides more strongly creating greater clarity of direction. This encourages us to feel more individual. Waxing Moon - A good time to build solid foundations that extend far into your lives. The waxing moon is for a time to put thoughts towards love, wealth, success, courage, friendship, luck or health. Just before the full moon - Just before the full Moon is a transition phase and at this time you should be allowing things in your life to develop naturally. Do not make any life changing decisions at this time. It may feel right, but it could be costly. Full Moon - The full moon is the time to set your spirit free, self confidence and maturity in your life abound. At this time there is excitement but should never be haste. Any working that needs extra power, such as help finding a new job or healing for serious conditions, can be done now. Also one can work on love, knowledge, legal undertakings, money and dreams during this time. Waning Moon – The waning phase lasts for about 11 days, from the full moon until the moon vanishes from the sky at the beginning of the dark moon phase. During this phase, less of the moon is visible each night. The waning moon is used for banishing negative energies or for ridding oneself of addictions or illness. It is the time to finish projects and enjoy the fruits of your labor. It is also a time to share your life with others. This is a time of decline and a good time to seek mutual support and benefits. It is considered to be a time of emotions.   Product Sizing MEASURING YOUR WRIST FOR AN ACCURATE BRACELET SIZE To find your perfect bracelet size, follow these steps: STEP 1: Measure your wrist with a flexible tape measure or a strip of paper just below the wrist bone, where you would normally wear the bracelet.

Care Instructions Jewelry Care  It is normal for natural gemstones stones to fade or change color over time due to body oils and other environmental factors. Though we strive to use the most durable metals, they can also tarnish and fade over time.  To help them retain their color and lustre, please consider the following:  Avoid:  Be careful of chemicals, such as cologne, perfume, creams and cleaning products as they can change, stain or fade your jewelry.  Wearing gemstones in water is not recommended. Certain stones will fade if left out in the sunlight too long (especially when cleansing and clearing).  Cleaning:  You can use a soft cloth to polish and clean the metals and gemstones. Be careful with commercial products which can harm or scratch your stones.  For pieces with wood you can apply a small amount of coconut oil or sandalwood oil to keep the beads from drying out due to moisture (sweat, humidity, etc.).  For a more comprehensive list of jewelry care, read more details on How to Wear and Care for Your Jewelry.
