For over a decade I have collected mixed stone necklaces from some of my favorite suppliers. You will recognize their necklaces if you have had exposure to gemstones in high end energy healing modalities. I have come to call these kinds of necklaces “formularies” as they synthesize the energy of differing gemstones into one purposeful combination.
Gemstone Compendulums™
In my overall attempt to scale down gemstone tool size and cost while keeping them effective, I desired to do the same for mixed gem necklaces. My solution is what I have come to call Gemstone Compendulums™; a combination of gemstones in a pendulum format.
Similar to Lavalliers™, Gemstone Compendulums take single stone pendulums to the next level while still being capable of holding a Cathexis Coterie. They can also stand alone as a multi-integrated gemstone combination in a mini-formulary presentation. Worn on a chain or cord around the neck, they can serve as an alternative to formulary-type gemstone necklaces.
I will have to admit that part of my intent was to bypass the work of knotting mixed stones on silk cord which has an abundance of issues when dealing with multiple bead whole sizes. Then I realized that this would also drop the overall price by omitting this knotting step. Bonus!
But I wasn’t convinced that just reducing the size and eliminating the numerological order and pattern of the necklace would still obtain the same benefits. So, I made Gemstone Compendulum replicas of necklaces I had already purchased.
Giving credit where credit is due, I have added links to the pictures so you can visit the Gemisphere website and see their original necklaces.
I would wear each gem-formulary interchangeably for a week or so and then evaluate my findings.
Empyrean Gemstones’ philosophy approaches gemstone energy in a more inclusive fashion. Acknowledging that gemstones have a particularly energy (as does all created and organized matter), we tend to look more closely at the “Subjective Effect” of working with a gemstone. This simply means that after study and contemplation of a particular gemstones energetic purpose, that information coalesces in the Subjective Mind and permeates the consciousness. The act of wearing the item serves as a physical reminder of this intent of conscious change that is desired. With this understanding, the Gemstone Compendulums met the aspiration I was seeking.
The following chart depicts the triple aspect of the alchemical formula of creation.
Work would denote the physical wearing of the necklace; it care and handling.
Study relates to the acquiring information about the energetic properties of gemstones.
Prayer is the contemplation of consciousness responding to the transmutation through experiencing paradigm shifts in how one relates to the world. It can also stimulate and dreams and soul travel experiences.
But like all my intuitive leaps, try it out for yourself.
