LTDE24 Nº 034 — Aurora Insight | Labradorite & Herkimer Diamond · Beaded Necklace

Ten natural graduated Labradorite rondelles, approximately 4–8 mm, are centred by three raw Herkimer Diamonds and two hammered gold-filled tubes.

Sterling-silver beads and a sculptural U-shaped pendant connect to a 45 cm sterling-silver chain with gold-filled accents and the Melana Universe Burst emblem.

Handmade in Melbourne, Australia. Labradorite flash and Herkimer form vary naturally, giving each necklace its own aurora-like field.

Anima Mundi ~ The Wheel of Life™ is Melana’s living compass of direction, element, season, archetype and alchemy. Each jewel is positioned within the Wheel to reveal the current it carries and the transformation it is designed to support.

Aurora Insight is led by the Eagle of East, whose Air medicine sharpens perception, learning and intuitive sight. The Antelope of West supports this primary current through Water, bringing emotional balance and the capacity to integrate what has been seen.

Together, Preparation and Cibation create clarity without depletion. Labradorite reveals hidden pattern, while Herkimer Diamond amplifies light and Antelope medicine keeps the field steady enough to use it.

The Seven Soul Gates decode the jewel’s deeper architecture—its guides, transformation, virtues, anchors and timing within the Wheel.

Aurora Insight came from wanting intuition to feel useful, not overwhelming.

Labradorite can open so much perception. Herkimer makes that light even brighter. The Antelope current was important because insight needs somewhere to settle—it has to be held by the body, the emotions and daily life.

My hope is that this necklace helps you receive what is true, stay balanced in the receiving and let clarity become something you can actually follow.

With awe & wonder,
Mel x
