Angelfire

An Angelfire necklace promotes thoughts of the highest order. The Indigo-hued Blue Sapphire in Angelfire emphasizes the level of the mind where thoughts first take form. The Blue Sapphire and the strong presence of the number eleven carry the gemstones' energy to this area of the mind. The Blue Sapphire and White Coral cleanse and strengthen this area so that only pure and constructive thoughts can be born.

The mind is vast, complex, and comprised of many levels, or areas. Each of these levels has a different function, and each resonates with a different number—namely, three, five, seven, nine, and eleven. Because of Blue Sapphire’s mission regarding the mind, when Sapphire is worn as a solid necklace, it affects all these levels. Angelfire’s design is based on the number eleven. It contains eleven sets of two Sapphire rondels, and eleven sets of eleven White Coral spheres. Thus, all the Sapphire energy that would otherwise be drawn to other levels of the mind is powerfully focused on the level that resonates with the number eleven. This level is the highest aspect of the mind, that which is closest to your purely spiritual Self.

This level of the mind, also known as the intuitive level, is the birthplace of thoughts. Here, thoughts are generated continually. Unfortunately, many of the thoughts that people generate are unproductive, disharmonious, or downright negative. These unconstructive thoughts, attitudes, and prejudices act like garbage in our systems, polluting our bodies, emotions, and mind. The resulting deposits of mental “garbage” contribute to a downward spiral of health. Angelfire can help stop the production of this mental garbage. By purifying the area of the mind where thoughts are born, Angelfire helps to free you from the habit of indiscriminate and negative thinking.

The indigo-colored Blue Sapphire in Angelfire awakens and nourishes your intuitive aspect as it clears away the tendency to think negatively. By helping you distinguish between your mind and your spiritual Self, it also heightens your awareness that you are the creator of your own thoughts.

White Coral works to purify all levels of your being. It protects the core of your physical, emotional, and mental levels by deflecting negative and harmful influences from them. It protects this core, not only from your own negative thoughts and emotions, but also from those of others. In Angelfire, the eleven sets of eleven White Coral spheres focus these purifying effects on your intuitive aspect.

The single White Coral that lies between each set of Sapphires represents the one, true Self that lies beyond even the subtlest aspect of your mind. Thus, the alternating sets of eleven and one also focus on the relationship between your intuition and your highest Self. Together, the Coral and Sapphire help correct any faults in this relationship. By ensuring that this link remains clear and pure, Angelfire opens your intuition to your source of wisdom and guidance within.

The best way to experience the therapeutic effects of an Angelfire necklace is to wear it around your neck. There the gems will silently work for you as you go about your day. At night while you are sleeping, you can wear the necklace or keep it within three feet of your body to maintain your connection with the gems. 

Time Guidelines

Angelfire can be worn continuously. However, it is always wise to be sensitive to your body’s responses. If you start to feel a headache or significant discomfort, take the necklace off for a while. Then allow your body time to adjust to the changes initiated by the gems by wearing them for only an hour or two a day. Gradually increase this time until you can comfortably wear the gems for as long and often as you wish.

Cleanse Angelfire Regularly

To maintain their effectiveness, therapeutic gemstones need regular care. As the gems help us release energetic impurities, some of these energies cling to the gems’ surface and inhibit their ability to work at their peak capacity. A simple energetic cleansing will clear these energies and restore the gems to their naturally vibrant state. You can use any of following methods to cleanse your Angelfire necklace. Learn more about these methods.

Plant Rejuvenation: 2 – 3 times a week, wrap the necklace around the base of a healthy houseplant or lay the necklace in its branches.

Salt Bed: 2 – 3 times a week, lay the gems in a half-inch of sea salt for at least an hour or overnight. Place a thin natural-fiber cloth between the salt and the gems.

Sunbath: Every 1 - 2 weeks, lay in sunlight for a maximum of 5 minutes at a time.

Special Notes:

Avoid rinsing and clay cleansing, which will dull the Coral’s polish.

Store the necklace separately to protect the Coral, which is a somewhat soft gem.

When Your Necklace First Arrives

When you put on a new necklace or one you haven’t worn for a while, bring it into your aura with consciousness and a clear intent. We call this “practicing presence.” By opening yourself to the gems’ energies and consciously cooperating with the process of change, you can greatly enhance the gemstones’ benefits.

Angelfire’s design wields the power of the number 11. By containing 11 sets of Blue Sapphire and 11 sets of 11 Coral spheres, all the uplifting energy in the necklace is directed to the highest aspect of the mind, which is closest to your spiritual Self.

Therapeutic Quality Angelfire

Angelfire necklaces contain therapeutic-quality Blue Sapphire and White Coral.

Not all Blue Sapphire is pure enough to emanate the energy required to produce Blue Sapphire's therapeutic effects. Blue Sapphire that is itself filled with flaws, contaminants, and impurities cannot be expected to clear impurities from the mind and head.

Four primary factors determine Blue Sapphire quality: color, clarity, consistency, and a trait called gem candescence.

An accurate assessment of Blue Sapphire’s color and clarity requires a microscope. Ideal Sapphire is a rich, true blue—neither too pale nor too indigo. Only a microscope, which allows you to see how light passes through the gemstone, can reveal Blue Sapphire's true color. A microscope also lets you see whether the gem contains even the slightest black tinge. This is essential, because any black coloration is a severe contaminant that nullifies all of Blue Sapphire's effects. Even a wisp of black renders Blue Sapphire non-therapeutic.

The greater its clarity, the more energy a Blue Sapphire can radiate. Common inclusions found in Blue Sapphire are impurities, such as rock matrix, white clouds, and a toxic yellow discoloration that renders the Sapphire non-therapeutic.

Consistency is also an important element in a therapeutic Blue Sapphire necklace. Inconsistency in the color, clarity, or size of spheres within a necklace creates a distraction, which the Blue Sapphire energy must first overcome before it can do its work. This is one reason why most Blue Sapphire necklaces are not therapeutic or are much less therapeutic than their other quality parameters might indicate.

Gem candescence is an optical quality possessed by some Blue Sapphire. A bead displaying gem candescence looks like a drop of liquid Blue Sapphire. In the Sapphire in which it is found, gem candescence is an intense outpouring of the blue ray, making the Sapphire look like its own source of pure blue light. Its liquid appearance is an energetic quality that allows the Sapphire energy to access the mind instantly. All other factors being equal, gem-candescent Blue Sapphire is many times more powerful than Blue Sapphire without gem candescence.
