November's Birthstones

November's Birthstones

The two birthstones associated with the month of November are Topaz and Citrine. Both are beautiful stones and work well together in designs.

Topaz is known as a stone of love and good fortune. It is said to bring joy, generosity, abundance & good health, releasing tension and inducing relaxation.  It promotes openness, honesty and self-realization aiding in the ability to express your ideas. Through stabilizing of the emotions, you become more receptive to love from all sources.

On a physical level, Topaz is associated with the solar plexus chakra. It soothes, heals, stimulates & recharges, improving motivation and aligning the meridians of the body – directing energy to where it is needed most. Used to aid with digestion and stimulating the metabolism.
It is no wonder that Topaz is such a precious stone!

Citrine is a quartz mineral ranging from a pale yellow to a deep golden yellow hue.  It is a mineral that doesn't hold  negative energy, instead dissipating it. This stone never needs cleansing!



   







It is thought to be associated with not only acquiring wealth but also helps to maintain it. So keep a piece in your wallet, or purse!
Citrine is said to protect one from negative energy, promote clarity of thought and increase self esteem. 
This stone can help to calm and soothe distressed conditions. It will give joy and love to the owner.

We carry both blue Topaz and Citrine, in a variety of cuts, shapes & sizes, by the strand and also loose. So come on in and create your materpiece!
