One of the most popular medicine necklaces on my site (http://turtleisland.cc/medicine_necklaces.htm) is called “Silent Power”. While it looks fairly dainty and has muted enough colors to work with most corporate work attire, it really does pack a punch.
Readings from 4 different psychics resulted in the following descriptive phrases: Understanding consequences and possible futures; watchfulness; overview; tranquility and grounding; getting one’s fanny into gear; sense of get-it-done; good for helping one to maintain self-control; forceful; quiet power; behind the scenes; subtle; manifesting; it has substance.
Customers have written back after wearing this, reporting that they are more centered and motivated while being more open to guidance. It tends to redirect the “stubborn streak” that a lot of us tend to harbor. Most are loathe to take the necklace off at all.
Visually, the combination of blue Kyanite, Rainbow Obsidian, Andean Opal, Amethyst and Moonstone is subtle and quiet-looking, but amazingly powerful, kind of like a Shaolin Monk.
Rainbow Obsidian has a long history in the Americas as a “sanctuary of the gods” because they believed the gods inhabited rainbow obsidian when they visited the earth. It is classically used for all chakras; and for strengthening the nervous system, thyroid, ovaries, adrenal and pituitary glands. It is often used in treating various kinds of addiction because it strengthens the wearer’s mental powers and helps identify weaknesses. I use it both for grounding and shielding, as all obsidian does, and as an activator stone to make other stones in a given assembly work better.
Kyanite, which is both the central piece and a component, is known for stimulating all chakras, especially the higher ones, removes energy blockages and stimulates vital energy. Kyanite also brings lightness and positive energy, encourages calmness and sharpens concentration. It is an excellent meditation stone. I often use it as an activator in combination with other stones.
Moonstone is probably the first stone think of as an activator stone. It is common for the newly spiritually-awakened people to reach for this stone, both to stimulate the intuition and to connect the head chakras with the heart.
The pale green Andean or Peruvian Opal is unique. Nothing beats it for cooling you down when you are cheesed-off and ready to tear someone’s head off. It is like an angelic hug. Good for calming nerves under high demand, reducing stress and removing mental blocks. It has also been said to alleviate allergic reactions, which would make sense if one’s nose is “out of joint” emotionally.
Amethyst is the ultimate team player in spiritual jewelry. Considered one of the five classical “master healing stones”, it brings in the higher knowledge through the crown chakra, opens one to intuition, and helps show one the basis of whatever problems they are wrestling with. It is gently uplifting. Many more things have been attributed to this sweet workhorse stone. You will notice that this is included in every combination I make.
Common tweaks to the “Silent Power” necklace can include Kunzite, Apatite, Pink Opal and Garnet, depending on the person. What makes this puppy really sing is the energy work that programs, amplifies and harmonizes the stone combination to become the ideal unified team which is far greater that all its parts.
