The Clear Mind Protection Bracelet

For the Water Goddess — the one who reads a room before she enters it.

Black tourmaline all the way around and then, dead center, a single round of lapis lazuli — that deep Egyptian blue flecked with gold that has been turning up in jewelry boxes since the pharaohs. The contrast is the whole design. Dark, dark, dark, and then one unmistakable point of blue, the way a clear thought arrives in the middle of a muddled afternoon.

It is a quiet bracelet, better suited to a desk and a difficult conversation than to a party. Wear it on the writing hand. It goes with navy, with charcoal, with anything you put on when you need to be taken seriously.
