Greetings
my friends!! For those of you who are new to my lecture, my name is
Professor Stone E. Mountain but I go by Professor SEM. Each month I am
delighted to be given the opportunity to introduce you to the world of
stones, crystals, minerals and gems. This information comes to you
directly from the Gnomes ?Secret Book of Life? and this particular area is
my expertise and my love.

This month, I will be
introducing the ?turquoise? and the ?pearl?, both equally fascinating and
exquisite. The turquoise is found in every possible color of blue,
greenish blue and dark green. The turquoise is found from the far east to
the southwest of the United States, and prized by every culture including
the gnomes.
Gnomes wear turquoise for
various reasons. It is considered a protection against the evil eye and
warns the wearer of danger or illness. It also helps one to start a new
project and to complete it. The turquoise brings happiness, serenity and
good fortune to the wearers and their homes.
It is a master healing
stone that promotes spontaneity in romance or to stimulates new romances
amongst our young male gnomes. The turquoise is a highly spiritual stone
for grounding, brings soothing energy and a peaceful mind. The wearer
will find strength, wisdom, protection and positive thinking.
Wearing turquoise will
help you with strong communication skills, especially if you find you will
be giving a speech or possibly even a proposal of marriage. It is not
unusual for a mother to give her son turquoise especially when she hopes
he will marry a special young female gnome and she feels he may be a
little reluctant to ?pop? the question.
This beautiful gem
symbolizes the sky and spiritual love. It opens up the heart for giving
and receiving. It protects and detoxes one from pollution and detours
negativity. The turquoise helps one to bond with friendships and
loyalties.
Wearing turquoise tones
and strengthens the entire body, aids tissue regeneration, circulation,
lungs, respiratory system, helps infections, aids in keeping your teeth
healthy, releases fear, creativity blocks and depression.
Now for the pearl. Such
an organic gem! It comes in many colors from the most popular and
well-known white, to blues, creams, roses, exotic grays and blacks. The
perfectly well rounded pearls come from mollusk and the fresh water pearls
come from river mussels.
Pearls have been
associated with femininity and symbolize pure heart, mind innocence, and
faith and are given to young female gnome when she turns 16. It is a
cherished gift as it represents that she no longer is a child but a
beautiful young female adult. It is also there to protect her when she
marries and to ease childbirth.
Pearls were once regarded
as the most valuable material on Earth. There is conflict as to where the
pearl originated on earth but I am here to tell you that originally the
pearls were gifts from the moon filled with lunar elements to help one
deal with balancing emotions, absorbs emotional stress and is a "stone of
sincerity" bringing truth and loyalty to all.
It is an honor when a
young female gnome turns 16 as she is presented with her first pearl. It
symbolizes pure heart and mind, innocence and faith and protection for
when she marries and when she bears her children.
Wearing
the pearl absorbs emotional stress, eases anger and has been known to be
used in digestive disorders and to relieve bloating. The pearl is
delicate gem and it is necessary to take precautions for its longevity.
It must be cleansed frequently and never use with abrasive materials.
Well, I hope you have enjoyed my lecture. As always, it is my pleasure to
share with you the wonders of the universe.
I look forward to seeing
you back next month and remember, if you have anything you would like to
add, comment about or ask, feel free to email me.
Until next month
