A very introspective gem. They will guide you back into yourself and show you your own sublime wisdom. Pearls symbolize purity, wisdom, and spiritual transformation.

Pearls bring forth one's inner beauty from the untouched inner self. It helps to connect and stay more connected to the inner self which is the real "you", more centered in the heart-based inner essence.     

The energy of Pearl helps to cultivate patience, understanding, and compassion. It is especially helpful to women as it brings forth the feminine spirit/nature which has been denied, to be restored while adding strength and erasing fears of vulnerability.     

Pearls bring insight so you can see how you are seen by others.  This is an important tool as one journeys back to the inner self. 

Overall, Pearls restore peace to the body/mind system. 

On the physical level, Pearls can be used to ease stomach discomforts (like upset stomach, gas, heartburn, etc.). It can also be helpful with any irregularity within the feminine cycle or organs.     

On the (retail) market many varieties of pearls exist including dyed, colored, synthetic, etc.  Through this manipulation, much of the true power of Pearl is gone. It is important when using Pearls for therapeutic use to seek those which uphold the mission of Pearl otherwise the energy will simply perpetuate the created cycle of the masked identity. Pearls of this nature are difficult to find and when found tend to be costly.
