November, as the start of the winter weather months, is a month of remembrance and commemoration, from All Saints Day at the beginning, through Bonfire Night, to Remembrance or Armistace Day and for us locally, Saint Edmunds Day on the 20th. St Edmund, King of East Anglia, fought and was killed by the Danish in 869. He died in a hail of arrows and was then beheaded and when the survivors of his army searched for his severed head, it was found, being protected by a wolf, after the head itself was heard proclaiming its whereabouts.
The traditional birthstone for November is Topaz. It was worn by the Romans to protect against dangers in travel, from injuries from burns and to heal chest problems.Its also greatfor relieving depression, for fending off nightmares and to draw love to the wearer. Topaz was also known as a weight loss stone for its ability to regulate the digestive system.
Citrine is the ultimate stone of positivity. Historically, it was used in jewellery and art to signify luxury and wealth. Now, as a sunshine and energising and motivating crystal, citrine lets you explore your goals, boosts your confidence and is great for attracting wealth and abundance. Another good stone for digestive problems, as its cleansing properties are said to eliminate the toxins from your system.
