Shugyoku - Jewel.

Shugyoku - or, Gem.

Just a photo taken of me today prior a cozy night in

So on the subject of jewels,gems and semi preciouse minerials*adjusts her libarian frames*

Jade and Red Coral, are my chosen for this img.



Im sur emost ppl are familiar with jade. Stone of longevity. Jade is an ancient symbol of love,virtue and luck. Its most known for its strong green color ( though in fact comes in many colors! Even lavender!) and for that alone we can see how lovely it corordinates with the above.

But my real intrigue is for the Red Coral--to match the color of my eyemakeup.

Granted, it is created from the life of the great seas, its a very delicate thing. Sharp blows or even a tempature change could potentialy devistate it. And yet ironicly--- its lore is often siad to be used to build a strong emotional foundation. Perhaps to make up for its frail shell?
