December’s Light Blue
Blue as the summer sky or a robin’s egg, people the world over have revered this particular shade of blue as a good luck symbol. The color turquoise is inspirational and transformational. A single photon of light entering the eye can light up the entire brain. Colored light from any source entering the body through the eyes and skin will activate the brain to release hormones to cells throughout the body. Transmitted light through gemstones will also have this effect even though we are unaware of it.
The color teal is found naturally in many different gems and minerals from deposits in the Himalayas to the Rocky Mountains. Some natural stones are permanently dyed to attain this turquoise color vibration.
