Strike First — The Shadow Won't Wait For the woman who is done asking permission. Aries doesn't wait for the light to come back — she moves in the dark and lets the fire lead. Carnelian, red jasper and garnet stack courage on courage, so the thing you've been circling for months finally gets started. The eclipse motif: an 8mm matte black onyx moon rests against a 6mm gold sun, the two beads touching so the moon appears to cross the face of the sun — framed by a 3mm gold spacer on each side. Carnelian — core stone of courage, drive & bold first moves Red Jasper — shadow stone, grounding your fire so it burns steady instead of out Garnet — activation stone of passion, vitality & follow-through Accented with real gold for a lasting, luxe finish Handmade beaded design in fiery red, orange and deep burgundy — comfortable for everyday wear The Total Solar Eclipse in Cancer peaks August 12th — eclipses close doors fast and open them faster. Set your intention before the shadow passes.
