10,000 pennies of Citrine

Citrine, a yellow Quartz, is best known as the "Merchant's stone". Place it where you have cash - your wallet, cash box, safe to make sure there is always a flow! Keep in mind that cash flow means that it has to also be spent to come in!

Here are some Citrine Laughing Buddha Gods and Citrine Kwan Yin Goddess that my mom photographed after I asked her to compare size next to penny. Instead she sent me a picture of the Citrine figurines with 10,000 pennies!

Watch for these beautiful Citrine figurines to be made into pendants in the near future!

The Goddess Durga

Goddess Durga Tapestry sold at Satin Crystals

Goddess Durga represents the power of the Supreme Being that preserves moral order and righteousness in the creation. The Sanskrit word Durga means a fort or a place that is protected and thus difficult to reach. Durga, also called Divine Mother, protects mankind from evil and misery by destroying evil forces such as selfishness, jealousy, prejudice, hatred, anger, and ego.

The worship of Goddess Durga is very popular among Hindus. She is also called by many other names, such as Parvati, Ambika, and Kali In the form of Parvati, She is known as the divine spouse of Lord Shiva and is the mother of Her two sons, Ganesha and Karttikeya, and daughter Jyoti. There are many temples dedicated to Durga's worship in India.

In Her images, Goddess Durga is shown in a female form, wearing red clothes. She has eighteen arms, carrying many objects in Her hands. The red color symbolizes action and the red clothes signify that She is always busy destroying evil and protecting mankind from pain and suffering caused by evil forces.
