About freedom..

What is freedom? Is it even possible to be absolutely free inside a human body on Earth? Is freedom a state of mind or an absence of external restrictions? And if it is a state of mind, does it mean that a person in prison can, in fact, feel that he is free?

It seems to me that the real freedom is a state of mind, which cannot depend on anything outside of us. Freedom means allowing ourselves to be what we are deep inside, without fearing the opinions of others and without expecting their approval. Fredom means allowing others to be who they are, and loving them the way they are. Freedom means that I let myself be happy and let others around me be sad if it’s their choice. And vice-versa.

An eagle is a symbol of freedom and courage. Being free requires certain courage and trust towards life. If we put an eagle in a cage, it ceases to be an eagle, because its wings will not carry it anymore, there is no power to fly. An eagle in its natural environment accepts everything offered by life – there is power to fly in both, the sunlight and the storm. It doesn’t complain about weather, rather than enjoying them both, because it knows that therein lies the beauty of life.

I believe that deep in our hearts, we are all eagles, but most of the time we act as birds in a cage. We wait to be fed without thinking that for this deceptive amenity, we have given up the greatest gift on Earth – our freedom. And the cage around us consists of our own fears. Do I find courage and will to let my fears go? Do I want to fly free? What is freedom?

Eagles and angels have lots of common - both of them are here to help us in good and bad times and they teach us to find our wisdom. They can touch the Sky and be here on Earth with us.





This set was made by order. I used sterling silver and Larimar. Here is more information about Larimar:

Larimar is a gemstone that was discovered only in 1974 and it can be found only in the Dominican Republic (in the Caribbean Sea). It was first found in 1916, but because of little knowledge, it wasn’t paid attention to, and the discovery was delayed.

Given how useful Larimar is especially now, during the period of transition, there is no wondering that it has become attainable for the mankind. It is a gemstone that will help mankind move from egocentric consciousness to a new, open consciousness. It is helpful for those who constantly claim that things are not how they should be, and it shows them how to live in the present moment and love what you have right now.

Larimar has also been called the stone of Atlantis, because Edgar Cayce (“The Sleeping Prophet”) has claimed that part of Atlantis will be found in the Caribbean. He also indicated that on one of those islands, a blue stone with magical healing abilities will be found. Many believe that he was talking about Larimar and that is why it is also called the stone of Atlantis.

Larimar is a crystal that beams love and peace. It relieves stress and cures stress-related diseases. Larimar is a water element stone, but since it is has been born from volcanic activity, it unites the elements of water and fire. It calms emotions, anger and fear, helps the body and soul cope with new vibrations, and helps to contact the angels.

Larimar is in contact with the Goddess energies of Sea and Sky, and therefore helps a woman who wears it to be in touch with her natural femininity. It is a great crystal for pregnant women and after pregnancy, helping to avoid post-partum depression and helping to adjust to the new role. It also helps both men and women get in touch with their feminine and intuitive side.

Larimar is very useful for the throat chakra. It is especially recommended for singers since it protects the throat. Larimar also lowers blood pressure and fever, and is helpful in curing infections and viruses. Obviously, it helps to heal stress-related diseases like allergies, eczemas, psoriasis and other skin diseases deriving from stress.



May you have the strength


Of eagles' wings,


The faith and courage to


Fly to new heights,


And the wisdom


Of the universe


To carry you there.


Native American Blessing


This is one of the most beautiful blessings I have seen... Inspired from this blessing, one necklace has been born. Here it is:





And also this ring which belongs together with this necklace:



Both of them are now with their new owner. And I hope that this blessing works through the jewelry I made.

To make this set I used sterling silver and Lapis Lazuli
