SS Red Tourmaline Earrings

Sterling silver heart earrings with Red Tourmaline and Marcasite. According to metaphysical lore, marcasite clarifies the thought process, aids in introspection, and generally strengthens one's sense of spirituality. Along with pyrite, marcasite was a “fire-starter” that emitted sparks when struck with iron or flint. In the home or office, Red Tourmaline helps neutralize the harmful effects of microwaves, computers and other electronics. It deters people from picking fights or disputing your expertise, and helps bestow dignity, diplomacy and quiet authority when others are being unreasonable or pulling rank. It strengthens the ability to understand love, and promotes creativity in ways to put love out into the world. It assists one in being lively and sociable, but also encourages tactfulness and flexibility. Red Tourmaline may be used for harmonizing the feminine energies within both sexes, and lends strength to women in emotional challenges. Tourmaline strengthens the sense of smell, and in that respect, can also enhance the perception of pheromones which produces an aphrodisiac effect. Tourmaline is a shamanic stone, providing protection during ritual work. It can be used for scrying, and was traditionally used to point out a cause of trouble or an offender, and to indicate a good direction in which to move. Tourmaline is specifically used to treat motion sickness. It may also assist in restoring luster and shine to hair and nails.
