Strength

Golden Rutilated Quartz/Carnelian/Red Agate

This is Strength.

The second combination I created for Samsara and the second step in this cycle.

This combination needed thinking on.

I wanted the bracelet to be strong, that goes without saying, but with that quiet strength of determination. You know when you've made a decision you finally feel solid about and fully aligned with yourself.

It's that moment...the knowing, the drawing yourself up to your height and taking that big ol' deep breath, and recognising the strength you needed was inside all along.

That's not me being cliché, it's the realisation that no one else can provide you with the strength you are looking for.

They can show you the love or the rage, the kindness or the humiliation, you know, those feelings that can drive you to knowing something has got to give.

But it's YOU with the strength you need.

Golden rutilated quartz is that big boom of power, carnelian, that unerring strength and red agate, the stalwart.
