I added holographic glitter in liquid to a glass cylinder and capped it with a recycled 32 caliber silver bullet casing. The iridescent glitter includes moons, stars, and hexagons. This comes with a 24 inch silver chain. Shake it and watch the glitter fall gently inside the vial. The moon and star symbols have been used together for thousands of years by many different cultures. What better way for ancient people to bring their gods down from the heavens and hold them close to worship and cherish. These bright celestial bodies that stood in the sky night after night represented both consistency and the passage of time as their positions changed throughout the days and seasons of the year. The star is a symbol of balance in the way that each element balances with the other. The upward point of the star represents Spirit. The other four points each represent an element; earth, air, fire, and water. The ancient Greeks believed that all of these reside in everything. The moon is associated with clairvoyance and intuition. Using the energy of the moon is something that comes naturally and easily. To wear or display the symbol of the moon means that you go with what you feel and can make decisions based on the enlightenment it brings. The moon has different phases and those phases affect us in different ways. The full moon represents illumination, clarity, and openness. The crescent moon symbolizes new beginnings and dreams come true. The continuing cycles of the moon bring rebirth and renewal to us every month. An original Beautiful Bullets design.

Morion quartz is very dark brown variety of quartz found originally in Scotland. It is often used as jewelry for Highlander apparel, including kilt pins and sash brooches, and as a power stone in dagger handles.

In many cultures dragons represent the primal forces in nature. They are seen as mystical and celestial beings. In Eastern traditions dragons often symbolize wisdom, strength, and good luck. In Europe, dragons were often considered malevolent, but they were thought to possess some form of magic or supernatural power. The claw represents the dragon's uncanny ability to smell trouble and to root out liars and thieves. Quartz amplifies and directs energy and builds energy pathways. It can strengthen the energies of anything it is put with, and can be used to channel energy and send it out to other stones. The resonating quality is the reason that quartz was originally used in radios and other transmitters, and manufactured crystals are still used in electronic devices today.

Tangerine Quartz Points are found almost exclusively in Minas Gerais, Brazil. They have a natural orange color that comes from the combination of hematite and water in the cavity where they grew. Over time, the water combined with hematite to create rust that permanently bonded to the surface of the crystals.

It can help you deal with the chaos of everyday life by providing you with a psychic shield to ward off harmful and negative energies. Merlin's gold is also known as NuGold or Jeweler's Bronze.
