Light Stream and Fluorite Rainbow
Light Stream is closely related to the necklace known as Fluorite Rainbow. Although both necklaces contain the same gemstone components and offer the same benefits, Light Stream’s effects are milder. Fluorite Rainbow contains twice as many Fluorites and color ray gemstones as Light Stream; yet, because of its design, Fluorite Rainbow is more than twice as potent. Light Stream also costs less than Fluorite Rainbow.
Color rays are the most fundamental building blocks of all living things, including human beings. At a fundamental level, even our atoms and subatomic particles consist of color rays. Therefore, any excesses, deficiencies, or blockages in the flow of the color rays that comprise your being can have an enormous influence on your health, life situation, and even the experiences and people you attract or repel.
Each of your life lessons and karmic situations, including any physical conditions, is a manifestation of an excess, deficiency, and/or blockage of color rays. Ideally, when you resolve the underlying karma or learn the lesson, the resulting color-ray imbalances and blockages correct themselves. However, because the physical body is reluctant to change—even when the change is in its best interest—sometimes these color-ray imbalances fail to correct themselves fully, even when you have resolved the karma or learned the lesson. When this happens, the related life situation or physical condition may not disappear with the lesson.
Light Stream addresses these life situations and lessons while nourishing you at a fundamental level with the seven color rays. This necklace works on all aspects of your being simultaneously to disintegrate the blockages that lead to color-ray excesses and deficiencies. It also helps break up the limiting states of consciousness that can prevent you from learning the lessons and resolving the karma associated with color-ray imbalances and blockages. Hence, it can help you move beyond many undesirable situations.
Light Stream also provides your body with the impetus to resolve any imbalances or blockages associated with your main color ray. Wearing this necklace will allow you to derive more nourishment from your main color ray. Because Light Stream includes all seven color-ray gemstones, it is also an ideal necklace for someone whose main color ray is white.
Light Stream necklaces contain therapeutic quality Purple Rainbow Fluorite, Lavender, Ruby, Carnelian, Citrine, Emerald, Blue Sapphire, Indigo, and Amethyst.
Purple Rainbow Fluorite
Therapeutic Purple Rainbow Fluorite displays bands of dark purple and indigo within a base of colorless or light- to medium-purple Fluorite. When examining a Purple Rainbow Fluorite sphere or cylinder for therapeutic value, from one direction it should appear completely dark purple; when turned 90 degrees, it should display the dark purple bands. Spheres should be cut so that the bands lie perpendicular to the drill hole. Therapeutic Purple Rainbow Fluorite has no hint of green.
Purple Rainbow Fluorite can be divided into six grades of therapeutic quality: Exquisite-Plus, Exquisite, Very Fine, Fine, Fair, and Acceptable. As Fluorite quality moves away from the highest level, all elements in the sphere or cylinder get progressively fuzzier, and fewer bands appear.
Exquisite-Plus
In Exquisite-Plus Fluorite, the purple bands are crisp and well-defined in a colorless or nearly colorless Fluorite base, and each sphere contains at least five or six bands.
Exquisite
In Exquisite Fluorite, the dark purple bands are slightly less distinct, and the base is nearly colorless.
Very Fine
In Very Fine, the bands appear to be bleeding slightly into the base, and the base has a little more color than Exquisite.
Fine
In Fine, the bands are fuzzier than Very Fine but still recognizable.
Fair and Acceptable
In Fair and Acceptable therapeutic quality, the bands appear to have bled somewhat into the surrounding Fluorite, with no clear separation between them and the Fluorite base; these two grades have little therapeutic value. Although qualities lower than Fair and Acceptable are the most plentiful, they are not therapeutic.
The therapeutic effectiveness of Purple Rainbow Fluorite increases exponentially from one level of quality to the next higher level. For example, Very Fine is ten times more potent than Fine, Exquisite is 100 times more potent than Fine, and Exquisite-Plus is 1,000 times more potent than Fine.
When making a necklace with Purple Rainbow Fluorite, the most important consideration after quality is that the Fluorites are energetically compatible with each other. Selecting gems that are similar in vibration and appearance enhances the overall harmony, and therefore effectiveness, of a necklace. Collections of compatible Fluorites are called “families.”
Lavender
The Lavender gemstone is a derivative of colorless Quartz. Yet, unlike Quartz, the finest therapeutic Lavender is not optical in quality. Rather, it contains three elements, all of which are present in the same sphere: lavender color, translucency, and patches of cloudy white or light lavender color. Each therapeutic Lavender sphere exhibits a unique combination of the three essential elements. They work together to fulfill Lavender’s mission and produce its effects.
Lavender Color
The lavender color defines the Lavender gemstone’s mission. The energy of the color lavender has an affinity with the higher levels of our mental, emotional, and even physical bodies. When each of these bodies is stimulated with the energy of lavender, the body awakens to its relationship with the next highest body, inspiring alignment and cooperation among them all.
Translucency
The translucency in the gemstone clears the path for Lavender’s energy to do its work. Without translucency, Lavender’s work slows down drastically. Although non-translucent Lavender can generate the necessary changes, its path through the physical and subtle bodies is greatly hindered.
Cloudy Patches
The patches of cloudy white or light lavender color act as regulatory components by encouraging alignment to unfold in a balanced way. Without these patches, Lavender promotes alignment without attending to the need for change to occur in a balanced, gradual fashion. The cloudy aspect also helps the physical body to regain its balance more swiftly after taking a step toward greater alignment.
Optical-quality Lavender, which is completely translucent and contains no cloudy white or light lavender patches, will bring about alignment at the greatest possible speed. In the hands of an experienced gem therapist who knows how and when to use such a strong force, it is an invaluable tool. However, to prevent the physical body from reacting negatively to such a forced alignment, optical Lavender should be worn only for very short periods.
The finest quality Lavender is free of contaminants. Black flecks, a brown or green tinge, or any foreign matter that muddies the lavender color lowers the quality of Lavender’s energy and diminishes its therapeutic effects. The energy of such Lavender cannot reach into the higher vibratory levels of the wearer’s being. While small splashes or pockets of purple coloring enhance Lavender’s effects, large or numerous dark purple splashes or any coloring that makes the sphere look like Amethyst are contaminants. Such spheres do not support Lavender’s mission. The finest therapeutic quality Lavender is extremely rare.
Ruby
Ruby crystals occur naturally in different qualities of color and clarity. The purer these qualities are, the more powerful are Ruby’s effects. Judging therapeutic quality in Ruby requires exceptional care and the consideration of many factors.
Therapeutic quality Ruby is at least somewhat translucent, true red, and free of black inclusions to the naked eye. Non-Ruby inclusions can be identified under a microscope and should be avoided as much as possible, since they restrict Ruby’s effects. Their area of influence is greater than the physical space they occupy; an inclusion affects the Ruby surrounding it in a radius equal to the inclusion’s diameter.
In order for Ruby’s energy to touch and stimulate the heart, it must carry the brightness of true red. Dark, burgundy-colored Ruby has a heavy energy that cannot reach above the lower chakras; the darker the color, the heavier the energy. On the other hand, Ruby that is too light or pinkish in color is immature and lacks the strength required to be therapeutically effective.
The precision of Ruby’s shape is crucial. Because Ruby energy radiates from the bead’s outer surface, poorly shaped rondels or spheres will make Ruby’s energy flow into the aura in an inconsistent manner.
When Ruby is cut into spheres or rondels, they are covered in a red oily polish. This polish should not be rubbed off, because the oil actually helps preserve the integrity of the physical crystal, which is very brittle. Fortunately, Ruby's energetic function is unaffected by this polish.
Carnelian
Carnelian's quality is easy to judge with the naked eye. A microscope is not necessary and a light table may even be deceiving. With Carnelian, color is more important than clarity. Nonetheless, to be therapeutic, Carnelian must be free of any rock matrix or non-Carnelian inclusions. The Carnelian should not appear muddy or dull. Cracks, even small ones, should be avoided, because they disrupt the emission of the Carnelian’s frequency.
The color of a Carnelian gem as it is visible to the naked eye in sunlight is a true representation of the energy it will give to its wearer. To judge Carnelian’s true color, it must be held up in ambient sunshine outdoors and not directly in front of the sun. In this respect, Carnelian is different from some other gemstones: any light source placed directly behind Carnelian makes it appear lighter than it really is. Carnelian color should be as consistent as possible throughout the sphere and, ideally, true to the pure orange seen in a rainbow.
Such Carnelian is not plentiful. For many people, this optimal Carnelian color may actually provide too strong an influx of orange ray. Therefore, in most cases, using the Carnelian with a slight hint of red coloring is recommended; it emanates a degree of orange ray that is in balance for most people. The more commonly available, dark red-orange Carnelian is not therapeutic.
Well-formed spheres or rondels and neat drill holes are also vital to Carnelian's effectiveness. Irregularly shaped or improperly drilled spheres diminish the strength with which Carnelian can express its frequency into the aura.
Citrine
Only pure-yellow Citrine can draw the yellow ray to the body. The color of therapeutic Citrine ranges from light to deep yellow and sometimes possesses a golden glow. Very pale Citrine does not manifest yellow-ray energy strongly enough to produce therapeutic effects. Dark-amber or brownish Citrine can actually be detrimental, because it muddies the energy flow to the atoms, molecules, cells, and organs that are dependent on the yellow ray for life. Indeed, any degree of black or brown within Citrine is a toxic contaminant.
Internal flaws dull Citrine's appearance and diminish its ability to express the yellow ray. Slight surface flaws are acceptable, as are a very small number of internal cracks, but only if they occur in Citrine that is pure, bright yellow.
Ideal Citrine is flawless and the true yellow of the rainbow. Citrine that displays the special optical property known as gem candescence radiates a greatly enhanced flow of Citrine energy.
Emerald
Color, brightness, and clarity are of equal importance in therapeutic quality Emerald. The color green that most closely matches the green of the rainbow is most powerful in Emerald. Therapeutic Emerald is a rich, radiant, pure bright green with good clarity. When the necklace is examined as a whole, it should be free of black flecks or have only a minimal number of them.
Avoid any Emerald that is cloudy or dull in appearance or noticeably yellow-green or blue-green in color. This is not therapeutic Emerald. The blue in particular is a contaminant that can alter the vibration of Emerald. Not only is it non-therapeutic, but it can actually have harmful effects.
Blue Sapphire
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.
Indigo
To accurately determine its quality, Indigo must be observed with a light source behind it. A light source reveals therapeutic Indigo’s true indigo-blue color and translucency. Without it, the Indigo’s color appears much darker, and its translucency disappears.
As the crystalline form of Sodalight, Indigo shares Sodalight’s tendency to contain white streaks or clouds. The finest quality Indigo is neon-like cobalt blue, translucent, and free from white clouds. As spheres move away from this finest quality, they contain more white and are less translucent. Spheres that are nearly opaque are of low therapeutic value. Spheres in which the white overtakes the indigo hue are non-therapeutic.
Like Sodalight, Indigo can become whiter as it absorbs negative energies from the environment and from your aura. This cloudiness may take as long as years or as little as weeks to develop. The Indigo remains effective, however, until the cloudiness overwhelms the indigo color of the spheres.
Amethyst
Amethyst color occurs naturally in a wide range from light to dark purple. Therapeutic Amethyst falls somewhere in the middle of this range and resembles the vibrant purple seen in a rainbow. As Amethyst moves away from this optimal color and becomes darker or lighter, its therapeutic value diminishes. The lightest purple is not the gemstone known as Lavender but only a washed-out Amethyst.
Clarity also plays a key role in Amethyst quality. Flaws and inclusions, or foreign matter, detract from its ability to radiate its healing energy. A tiny amount of flaws in a sphere is acceptable. However, when evaluating Amethyst, be aware that flaws disrupt or block the sphere’s ability to radiate its energy in direct proportion to the flaws’ size. The exceptions are minor flaws that have a prismatic effect. When a sphere with these flaws is moved in natural light, the Amethyst displays a rainbow or partial rainbow of colors. This property is an asset. All other flaws and inclusions—especially cloudiness, dark flecks, internal fractures, or pieces of the rock matrix in which the Amethyst grew—inhibit the Amethyst's energy and should be avoided. Poor drill holes or any damage to the sphere’s surface, such as scratches, gouges, or chipped areas, also render Amethyst non-therapeutic.
To judge Amethyst quality accurately requires experience and the opportunity to compare many Amethyst specimens of different grades and colors. Amethyst of ideal color with no inclusions is extremely rare.
The day after I first put on my Light Stream necklace, I was sitting quietly when suddenly I saw a mind’s-eye movie of all the times in my life I had given up my power to a man. It went by quickly, and I just thought, “That’s odd.”
Two days later while walking on the beach, I experienced intense grieving. I couldn’t figure out why, because it seemed to be about old patterns, with nothing happening in the present to trigger it. I looked down and saw that the Ruby section of my Light Stream was over my heart. I flipped the Ruby section behind my neck and let go of the grief.
In retrospect, I realize that during the first experience, I was working through a blockage to Carnelian’s energy. In the second one about grief, I was releasing a blockage to the energy of Ruby. Until I wore Light Stream, I couldn’t wear a Carnelian necklace in comfort or experience the joy I saw in other people when they wore it. After my release with Light Stream, I am thrilled to be able to wear Carnelian and derive the benefits I expected from it.

Wear It Around Your Neck
The best way to experience the therapeutic effects of a Light Stream 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
Most people are comfortable wearing Light Stream on a continual basis. 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 Light Stream 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 Light Stream 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 salt for at least an hour or overnight. Place a thin natural-fiber cloth between the salt and the gems.
Special Notes: Avoid rinsing and clay cleansing, which will dull the Purple Rainbow Fluorite’s polish.
Avoid cleansing Light Stream in sunlight.
Store the necklace separately to protect the Purple Rainbow Fluorite, which is a particularly soft and fragile 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.
