amber (succinite) was decoratively worn forty million years ago, dating back to the Paleolithic era, when women thought of it as "liquid gold". found in Russia, the Ukraine, Poland, Lithuania & small towns in the Baltic Sea region, it is a fossilized plant resin thought to have healing powers. from China, to Egypt to Italy, & beyond, women have prized this warm gem for centuries. amber was used as "barter" for trading centuries ago, & has been used in powdered form in incense, & in good luck amulets
according to ancient myths, amber is tears shed into the Eridanus by Heliads grieving over the death of their brother Phaethon, who was thrown into the river where rays of the setting sun hardened in the depths of the sea. in a region of Karpie in Poland, legend has it that amber is human tears from the times of the forty-day rain..many legends exist to explain its existence all over the world
one of the reasons for its upsurge in popularity in the United States, is that we are now exposed to the varied colors of amber--honey,cognac, cherry, vanilla, green, blue (amber from the Dominican Republic), & we have many choices & rich colors to choose from to accessorize our outfits. it is a very lightweight gem & the perfect travel jewelry. today, like ages ago, amber is one of the most highly valued & fashionable precious stones in the world
considered to be an alternate birthstone to citrine & topaz--for SCORPIOS (October-November).
