Satya means truthfulness. It is the second Yama outlined in Patanjali's Yoga Sutra. The Yamas are basic guidelines for living a good and ethical life. It refers to not only the obvious truthfulness of our words but also our thoughts and actions.

We named this beautiful mandala pendant Satya for the soothing and calming tones created by the rhodolite garnets and amethysts. 108 stones surround a deep red garnet. This pendant measures less than 1". The exquisite arrangement and colors bring us peace.

Amethyst is a favorite gem for it all its purple shades and hues. Did you know that the name amethyst comes from the Greek word for "not intoxicate"? Wearing amethyst jewelry is said to protect one from drunkenness. Maybe that's the reason we love this gem!
