For this 108 Mala I used 6mm Rainbow Amazonite, mini copper spacer beads and copper Feather amulet. The mala has been hand knotted on an extra strong, nylon cord with one knot between each gemstone bead. It not only looks great, it also makes it easy to use it as a tool in your meditation practice.

• Mala length: 36" (91,5cm). Amulet length: 2 1/2" (60mm).

Amazonite is the stone of truth, honor, integrity and trust. It is connected to the Heart Chakra (love, acceptance, forgiveness), the Throat Chakra (truth, communication, choice) and the Third Eye Chakra (intuition, knowledge, divine wisdom).
The Feather is a symbol of spiritual evolution, connection to a higher plane and communication with spirit. It also represents the power of the thunder gods, along with the power of air and wind. Since ancient times feathers has been considered to be magical, mystical items that, when encountered, signal a special message to the receiver. In almost all cultures around the word a feather has been seen as a direct line to the divine. Because of their connection to the Divine, finding feathers was a sign a connection with the spirit world, and a sign from the gods that the Divine is watching over you.  There is a saying that “feathers appear when angels are near”. An angel can be a celestial being that serves the Divine, or the souls of loved ones who has been given power to protect and guide you.

Copper is very grounding and it will strengthen the Root Chakra, and it is also connected to the Sacral Chakra. It can help you channel a higher vibration and as a conductor of energy it will intensify the healing properties of gemstones. It can make you more confident and help you become in control of your destiny. Copper carries the energies of Grandmother Earth, teaching us to walk in balance with nature.
