Today I want to talk about necklaces, because some of us crystal lovers wear beautiful jewelry. We wear beautiful rings, necklaces, pendants, bracelets, which carry specific beneficial energies. But aside from the beauty and aesthetics, do you know why you are wearing that specific kind of jewelry? Do you know how it affects you? Have you thought about whether your jewelry is best worn as earrings, a necklace, a pendant or a bracelet? And if you have crystal necklaces, have you thought about whether they should be short or long, and what the effects are?
I believe that as crystal lovers, and those who work with crystals as spiritual tools, there always has to be a conscious intention behind the things we do. When we understand why we do certain things, it makes it all the better. When we do things with conscious intention, it is a beautiful thing. There was a time we were unconscious about a lot of things, then suddenly we come into information which wakes us up, we apply it, test it, experience it, and it becomes our lifestyle.
For our purposes today, I am only talking about necklaces. Necklaces are crystals or beads which completely circle the neck, like these beautiful malachite pieces I am wearing right now. They are different from pendants, which I am not talking about today.
What type of necklace should you wear, short or long? It depends. Short necklaces fall on the base of the throat, which is the throat chakra. The throat chakra is about communication, how we express ourselves, our creativity, speaking our inner truth. It is a communication portal that connects us to our psychic and intuitive senses. That is why it is important to know about the type of necklace you wear around your throat chakra, and why the length matters.
Our throat chakras influence the communication energy we put out and how we express ourselves. If you are a person who is too expressive, volatile or explosive in how you communicate, wear a choker type or short necklace that touches your throat chakra to balance and harmonize that energy. A good crystal for that is sodalite, which is really good for balancing and stabilizing over-the-top energies. If you are a shy, inexpressive person, consider a short choker type crystal necklace with an energizing, warming, stimulating effect to help you express your truth. Tourmalines and rhodonites around the throat chakra are good for that energizing effect. Aquamarine and lapis lazuli are really great as short necklaces, especially for throat situations involving the thyroid gland.
The energy around the throat moves upward from the back into the neck and face area. Because this energy moves into our face, it affects our sensory organs, our eyes, nose, mouth, ears, which are portals in themselves. Our eyes are portals we use to perceive, physically or through inner seeing. Our ears are portals we use to hear, physically or inwardly. Our noses and mouths are doorways to experience life directly. When energy moves from the throat chakra into these sensory portals, it causes us to change our perceptions. When energy moves into your eyes, you begin to see things differently because something shifts. When it moves into your ears, you hear differently. When it moves through your throat chakra, you communicate differently. Wearing short necklaces activates your psychic and intuitive senses through your sensory portals, and these activations help you change your perception of life. Short crystal necklaces are great for change.
What about longer necklaces? Unlike shorter necklaces, which are about creating change, longer necklaces are more about acknowledgement and affirmation that you have already made the changes, that you are now an embodiment of an energy, that you now carry a specific energetic quality. That you are now a good communicator, now confident, now in harmony, now more peaceful, now more balanced, now healthy, now even more loving. Longer necklaces support that embodiment of the energy you now are.
If you are into long necklaces, wear them to fall around the chest area. The area between the chest, the CV17 area, is a very strong energy portal for spirit. Some good crystals to wear as both long and short necklaces are larimar, which is great for balancing and harmonizing emotional energy, and red garnet, which is great for heart palpitations. For those who love pearls, they have a very calming energy and can be worn short or long.
