Cerridwen Goddess Pagan Prayer Beads Healing Crystals, Yule Witches Ladder Chanting Ritual Beads for Altar Decor

These have been created to honor the Welsh Goddess Cerridwen. They have been inspired by her colours of purple, black, silver and grey and designed with magickal numbers in mind. 8 sterling silver beads for the 8 Sabbats, 13 Kunzite beads for the 13 lunar moons, 3 larger Labradorite beads to represent the Triple Goddess, Maiden, Mother and Crone, and 2 rows of 4 Labradorite beads to represent the 4 elements. There are 3 lots of 9 beads, Black Obsidian, then Pyrite, then Lepidolite, for spellwork or ritual counting. The 2 freshwater black pearls at either end symbolise the masculine and the feminine.

I use the highest quality natural and ethically sourced gemstone crystal beads in all of my designs to ensure that you are getting the best and most pure energy from what I create. They are charged with Reiki energy before shipping them to you and all beads are cleansed with a handmade and sustainable incense. You are not only buying handmade artisan prayer beads but you are also getting healing crystal energy to deepen your practice and support and/or protect you wherever and whenever needed.

These artisan prayer beads have been made with:
• Natural Kunzite, Lepidolite, Hematite, Black Obsidian and Labradorite Gemstone Beads
• Natural Freshwater Black Pearls

• Silver plated heart pendant and labradorite tassel pendant.
This would be the perfect addition to your altar or Yule ritual or even carried with you in a pocket for using while you are out and about in your everyday life.

••LABRADORITE••
Labradorite is a highly protective stone that deflects unwanted energies from the aura and forms a barrier to negative energies. A stone of transformation, Labradorite is a useful companion through change, imparting strength and perseverance. It balances and protects the aura, raises consciousness and grounds spiritual energies. It enhances psychic abilities and helps you perceive with your inner eye and strengthens intuition. Banishes fears and insecurities, and strengthens faith in the self and trust in the universe. It stimulates the imagination and calms an overactive mind, helps develop enthusiasm and new ideas.

••BLACK OBSIDIAN••
Black Obsidian is a very powerful and creative stone. It’s like a ‘psychic vacuum cleaner’ that cleanses the auric field of disharmony and negative attachments and our own negative traits and feelings. It is a strong grounding stone. It increases self-control.  It forces facing up to one’s true self.  Releases imbalances and negative energies.  Black Obsidian is protective and provides support during change.  It repels negativity and disperses unloving thoughts.

••LEPIDOLITE••
Lepidolite helps with emotional balance and inner peace. Instantly soothing in its soft lavender and lilac shade, it’s easy to immediately connect with the calming nature of Lepidolite. It has long been used as a source of lithium - a remedy often turned to for those who suffer jangled emotions, high mood swings, and symptoms of bipolar.
A stone of transition, Lepidolite assists in the release and reorganisation of old behavioural and psychological patterns, gently inducing change. It brings deep emotional healing, soothing and reducing stress and depression. Lepidolite dissipates negativity and insists on being used for the highest good. It activates the heart, third eye and crown chakras. It opens the crown chakra, clearing blockages and bringing cosmic awareness. It helps to take you forward into the future. It helps us to let go of any patterns that are no longer serving us and to reorganize and restructure our behavior, habits and thoughts.

••HEMATITE••
Hematite grounds and protects. It strengthens our connection with the earth, making us feel safe and secure. It endows us with courage, strength, endurance and vitality. A "stone for the mind", Hematite stimulates concentration and focus, enhancing memory and original thought. Hematite utilises the magnetic qualities of our yin-yang energies to balance the meridians within the body and to provide a stable equilibrium between the ethereal nervous system and the physical nervous system. It focuses energy and emotions for balance between the body, mind and spirit.
Dissolves negativity and prevents you from absorbing the negativity of others. Hematite is strong, supporting timidity, boosting self-esteem and survivability, enhancing willpower and reliability, and imparting confidence. It helps to overcome compulsions and addictions.

••KUNZITE••
Kunzite is a stone deeply connected to the heart and love. A joyful stone, Kunzite opens and connects the heart with the mind, encouraging communion between the two. While wearing Kunzite, it is thought you are better able to experience and reciprocate love. Kunzite is also believed to help heal heartache and calm nerves.
Kunzite is a beautiful crystal, pure in energy and joyful in nature. It is a Stone of Emotion, opening and connecting the heart to the mind and stimulating a healing communion between the two. Kunzite encourages one to release walls built around the heart for protection and to be receptive to the experience of unconditional and abundant love.
Kunzite is often called the Woman’s Stone. It is particularly supportive for a young or first-time mother and for all single mothers.
Powerful healer of the emotional body, particularly for those who have closed themselves off from life, or from others, to protect themselves emotionally. Its high vibrational energy encourages letting go of fears and sorrows that hold the heart to the past or the anxiety of the future and inspires being present in the perfection of the moment.

I work with several small businesses & artisan suppliers in Asia and Europe to source the components of my pieces. I also package & ship in the most environmentally respectful way possible.
Obviously, I need to get your items to you in perfect condition but I am also are aware of so much waste when it comes to packaging. My solution is to wrap your order in recycled tissue paper and instead of a box or little bag that you will probably never use again, I send each piece in a lovely canvas cosmetics bag that I have designed especially for my creations. (Please see the last photo.)
I also realise that not everyone wants a lot of printed material with their purchase. I do give information in the listing description as to the healing properties of the gemstones. However sometimes it is nice to have it printed to refer to or to be able to include it when sending as a gift, so I offer an option in the drop-down menu for you to choose whether to have a card included with the details of the components and their benefits.

Please note that I do use vintage metal findings & components in some of my designs, so some natural tarnish, patina & wear is present that adds to their beautifully unique character. Natural fractures do occur within certain gemstones, and this is not indicative of damage but is a characteristic of natural (non-synthetic) stones. I do my best to represent these characteristics in my photos as accurately as possible.
I only make one piece at a time so the one you see in the photograph is the one you will get. This also means that once it is sold it can be a while before I remake it depending on what I have in stock or it may not be able to be remade as I buy my supplies in small quantities and sometimes cannot find them again. If it truly is unique and a 'one off' it will say so on the listing.

Thank you for supporting my business, and for choosing to shop small. I appreciate you more than words can say!

Blessings )0(
