DEALING GEMS FROM INDIA AS A COTTAGE INDUSTRY

As a big city dweller, frequently alone and perhaps bored, one ponders, how to break out of the rut. You might get a more vivid life and would certainly meet dozens of new people a day (and make extra money) by wholesaling some exquisite product to shops. Even if you’ve already got a job, selling SEMI PRECIOUS GEMS on lunch hours or weekends TO LOCAL BOUTIQUES can rev up your social life and your personal life.

IN THESE days of recession, starting a moonlighting business is like a back up position. PLUS, ANYTHING that drives you out into the marketplace a few days a week makes you lots of new pals. CHANGES your life for the better. (When you go out, just choose the VENUS days, JUPITER days, Uranus trines maybe, Neptune trines…..you get those from DELL HOROSCOPE last five pages or my dailies at http://home.earthlink.net/~astrology/

Forty years ago when I was young, I designed jewelry, made it with precious stones I found in Queretaro,Mexico, and sold it at the BAZAAR FOLKLORICO on the Sunset Strip.

Now if I were going to do it again, myself, (if I had a car with tags,) I’d deal gems like BHAVANI has, (below) to West Hollywood and Bev Hills. I TRUST this guy. I found him paging thru ancient, 1991 issue of a lapidary journal, saw a Hindu with good prices. Looked online, found his son – same family name, running the same biz. So I know they're at it a longtime and anyone who supplies to the lapidary world in USA has to have low prices, cuz this is a low price world. I email the guy. He answers, I ask prices for pendants, BIG ONES. I have heard that 40 karats and up is what HINDUS in the GURU world, not gem world, say WORKS AS A CHAKRA BALANCER. That this is a big dose of that stone's powers. Small ones you get nothing. SO I ASK HIM, what would it cost, full range of samples of colors, shapes for pendants of that size, with a silver holder so it can go right on our chains....cuz I know a lot of spiritual seekers, many yoga teachers, or website owners...folks who could distrib his stuff to metaphys. Book stores, and to their own yoga students. HE answers:
