About

Ereshrikal is the Mesopotamian Queen of the Dead who rules the underworld. She is the older sister of Inanna who journeys into the underworld passing through seven gates. At each gate Inanna is required to shed a layer of clothing bringing her closer to her truest self. Ereshrikal's medicine is one of transformation. She provides opportunities for extremely powerful shadow work through going deep within and shedding that which is not completely necessary for growth and integration. Her mentorship requires immense strength and perseverance, providing incredible depth for those who choose to work with her.

Crystal Lore

Black obsidian is highly protective, it deflects negativity and unloving thoughts. It is a powerful creative stone and can support the soul in manifesting creations. It brings our subconscious shadows forth to be transformed so that we can release the past. It is a wonderful companion during times of change.

Turquoise was often used as an amulet for protection, in ancient times. It is an efficient holistic healer, balancing and aligning all of the chakras. It balances masculine and feminine energies and can stabilize mood swings, instilling calmness. It’s wonderful for enhancing communication and is oftentimes considered a love stone. Turquoise is excellent for protecting against EMFs and outside influences. 

Jewelry Care

To ensure that your jewelry lasts for years to come, please remove it before participating in any physical activities, swimming, showering, sleeping, etc.

Do not use chemical polishes to polish your pieces as it can remove the patina that makes each piece so unique. A soft cotton cloth or jeweler's cloth is all that you need to gently polish the stones or metal, you can also use a bit of warm soapy water if necessary.

Place your jewelry in an airtight container or Ziploc bag when not wearing it.

Some clients like to cleanse and recharge their pieces energetically. Please use dry clearing methods such as sound (singing bowls, chimes, etc) or sacred smoke (incense, palo santo, cedar, etc).

To recharge set your piece on a windowsill overnight to soak up the light of the new or full moon.  A special altar space can also be used for recharging.

Please be mindful that the sun can affect the color of certain gemstones, as such it isn't recommended to utilize sunlight for recharging.
