Most Iconic and Compassionate DC Heroes

Wearing a morganite bead bracelet inspires compassion and empathy. It’s a gemstone that encourages healing and self-love. In other words, this jewelry is perfect for any hero to wear. Looking for positive inspiration? Here are the best DC heroes that inspire hope and peace.

Starfire This alien princess with attitude came to earth and joined the Teen Titans in the 80s. She’s been a mainstay in the Titans ever since. What makes Starfire stand out is her fiery and joyful personality. People love following her journey as she continues to learn more about earth’s curious customs.

Supergirl Supergirl debuted in the late 60s, starting as a sidekick and slowly coming into her own. Supergirl has become one of DC’s most powerful heroes, making her an icon and an inspiration. What makes Supergirl so lovable, however, is her optimism and kindness. She wants to be her own person, not be in Superman’s shadow.

Green Lantern Green Lantern has gone through a lot of changes — the person behind the mask has even changed. The new Green Lantern is determined and always looking to help others. He is known for his honesty and for taking on any challenge without fear. In some universes, Green Lantern is openly gay, making him an LGTBTQ+ icon.

Aquaman Aquaman is often treated like a joke since he can talk to sea creatures. But Aquaman is actually incredibly powerful. He’s a leader and an imposing force. Aquaman deals with a pretty complex storyline, usually having to choose between his life on land and his community beneath the waters, Atlantis.

Green Arrow Green Arrow started as a bit of a Batman clone but has become a standout character thanks to his interesting arc and insane arrow abilities. Green Arrow started as a playboy billionaire (sound familiar?) but became a socialist crusader like Robin Hood, his inspiration. He’s grounded and understanding, but this Justice League member is known for his deadly aim.

The Flash The Flash is one of the most iconic DC heroes, the fastest hero alive. He has adventures that span through an immense timeline since he can literally travel through time thanks to his speed. He is still quite relatable, since he’s often trying to balance his life as a superhero with his professional and personal life. The Flash has a strong sense of judgment. He’s also a science geek who loves comics. Now that’s relatable.

Wonder Woman Wonder Woman is one of the first female superheroes, debuting in the 40s. She has the Lasso of Truth, which she often uses to get important information out of villains. She is all for justice, making her a fierce feminist icon. While she is extremely powerful, Wonder Woman is also known for her compassion for humanity.

Are any of these DC heroes leaving you feeling inspired? If you want to have the same confidence and compassion, try wearing Ice Import’s morganite bead bracelet. Then put on one of these iconic animated films to learn more about these heroes.

Most Iconic Kaiju to Fight Godzilla

It was recently Godzilla’s 68th birthday party! With Godzilla Day fresh in our minds, we’ve started to think of all the kaiju we love to see beating up other monsters and destroying cities. Here are some of the most beloved kaiju to check out if you love the G-Man!

What is a Kaiju? Kaiju is the Japanese word for “strange beast.” It has become a genre of sci-fi action films that feature larger than life monsters. Before you sit down and watch your next kaiju masterpiece, put on a moldavite pendant from Ice Imports to inspire protection — you never know when a monster will level your city.

Anguirus This spiky kaiju was inspired by the dinosaur known as an ankylosaurus. Like the prehistoric creature, Anguirus has spikes on its back and along its tail. This monster is often not on people’s radars since it didn’t put on a good show in Godzilla Raids Again. But Anguirus has continued to appear in other Godzilla films where he tries to keep up with the iconic lizard.

Rodan Rodan is unique in that this winged kaiju was first introduced in his very own film. He is a bit of a mystery, a blend of a bat and pterodactyl in appearance that often switches sides. Rodan is super fast thanks to his huge wingspan and can burn anything in his path thanks to the lava in his wings.

Space Godzilla Space Godzilla is a villain. His origin is a mystery but fans believe that he was formed when Godzilla’s DNA got sucked into a black hole. Space Godzilla is seen as Godzilla’s evil clone for this reason. He has a few advantages on the original Godzilla thanks to his ability to fly. Space Godzilla is much more agile. The huge crystals on his shoulders shoot lasers powerful enough to kill Godzilla.

Destoroyah This is another bad guy from the Godzilla universe, formed by the Oxygen Destroyer weapon. He starts off small but has since become one of the most dangerous threats to Godzilla and earth itself. Destoroyah is a tanky baddie that can handle Godzilla’s powerful attacks and even regenerate himself. He is one of the few kaiju to almost kill Godzilla.

Mothra Mothra is often referred to as the Queen of the Monsters. She is usually by Godzilla’s side, offering him support or sacrificing herself to fuel his own attacks. Mothra is a benevolent kaiju that wants peace and harmony.

If you find yourself drawn to Mothra, this moldavite pendant inspires growth and protection — like the winged kaiju herself.

Hedorah This is a very unique monster from the Showa era. Known as the Smog Monster, this evil kaiju kills enemies using pollution and toxins rather than strength. He is so toxic, in fact, that he can burn through Godzilla’s thick scaly skin. He has appeared different throughout the years but his general concept remains.

Crystals and Gems You Can Wear for Peace and Calm

Around the word, crystals and gems have always held power and influence over people. From beliefs regarding their qualities, to their value as symbols of power and wealth, human beings have always sought and worn them as part of their clothing and accessories.

Some of these gems are very precious and can be very expensive, but some crystals and precious stones that are thought to promote serenity and calm in your environment and mind are affordable and often used in custom jewelry.

Here are the most common crystals and gems often used in jewelry pieces that are thought to bring about peace and calm for the wearer and their surroundings.

Rose Quartz This is quartz crystal with a pinkish hue, and is often used in jewelry pieces as it is believed to promote compassion and love in the wearer. Many people who feel anxiety and stress could benefit from wearing a rose quartz bracelet as it promotes self-love and forgiveness.

Aquamarine A form of beryl, aquamarine is an abundant precious stone that has a sea blue hue. This stone often loses its color when exposed to sunlight, though they could cost as much as $1000 per carat.

This gem is believed to give the wearer peace and calm, and those who feel stressed or unfocused could simply touch the stone to focus their energies and regain some form of balance in their life.

Amethyst A form of purple quartz, amethyst in many cultures is believed to bring peace and positive energy. People who believe in the power of gems often use amethyst to give them wisdom and enlightenment.

Some people prefer to use amethyst crystals in their home, placing them in areas where it can create a positive mood and energy in the house. However, you can still wear it in jewelry, especially as a necklace or bracelet.

Citrine Is another form of quartz, but it is very rare, and most citrine quartzes are artificially created by exposing smoky quartzes to heat. It can be as valuable as topaz due to its rarity and beauty. Its beautiful color is thought to bring about warmth and joy to the wearer.

It is also thought to bring about prosperity and wealth, which is why it is also called the “merchant’s stone” or money stone.

Hematite This is a form of iron oxide pound in crystal form. It reacts slightly to the earth’s magnetic field due to the silver and iron ore present in the crystal. People who wear hematite bracelets, just like those who wear rose quartz bead bracelets, can feel calm and safe.

It is thought to repel negative energy, and help the wearer stay serene and focused in any situation. This is why it is often called the warrior stone, as it brings a sense of calm even in turbulent times.

You can place these crystals and precious stones in their original crystal beds if you want a stronger energy in your environment. But you can also wear them as jewelry to remind you to stay calm and focused in stressful situations.

Interesting Demon Slayer Mitsuri Facts

Demon Slayer is a dark anime series about a teenager seeking revenge after his family is killed by his younger sister who was turned into a demon. Yeah… It can be quite intense! If you’re looking to cosplay a Demon Slayer character, a popular one is Mitsuri Kanroji, a romantic and strong character that isn’t driven by a desire to kill demons but instead joined the Demon Slayer Corps to find the perfect husband.

Mitsuri is emotional and passionate, wearing her heart on her sleeve. She has big green eyes with long eyelashes and pink and green hair that’s braided. Her hair and thigh-high green socks are iconic in the anime world, making her a great character to cosplay. But she is also super strong and talented with a sword, so you’ll need a Mitsuri sword from Ice Imports to complete your look and fully embody Misturi.

Here are some interesting facts about Mitsuri that will help you understand this character a bit more!

Mitsuri is super strong Mitsuri looked normal at birth, even cute! But as she continued to mature, she appeared to have an unnatural strength just like her mom. She would eat a lot and her pastel hair is actually her natural color! Her strength and behavior started to scare some people and she was sometimes seen as a “freak.”

Mitsuri was rejected from marriage at 17, which really hurt her. The heartbroken Mitsuri decided to cut her hair and dye it black in an attempt to fit in with other girls. Her abnormal powers left Mitsuri unable to find love, which explains why she was so desperate to find a good match in the Demon Slayer Corps early on.

She started with flame breathing Mitsuri learned Flame Breathing style first, according to the manga, a style focused on strong strikes and burning opponents. But in the anime, Mitsuri has Love Breathing. How did that happen? The two are nothing alike, with Flame Breathing featuring simple strikes and Love Breathing hitting multiple times.

Well, Mitsuri’s body is not your typical human body. Flame Breathing didn’t work with her body, according to the manga, so she decided to invent her own breathing style: Love! This style worked with the unique Mitsuri sword, which is strong and flexible. She created the Love Breathing by using the Flame Breathing and then multiplying the strikes, only something she can do thanks to her superhuman powers.

Mitsuri Demon Slayer mark During a fight with a high ranked Hentangu, Mitsuri developed her Demon Slayer mark without knowing it. Hers is shaped like two hearts upside down with angel wings. The mark is so powerful that she was able to take on three Hashiras all on her own once she awakened.

As you can see, Mitsuri is a blend of romance and power. She has superhuman strength and a big heart. This has made her a great character to cosplay.

How to Use a Hematite Bead Bracelet to Stay Grounded

Hematite is a beloved gemstone that has become quite popular to wear as jewelry for its beauty and many benefits. These are the reasons you should invest in a hematite bead bracelet for your growing gemstone collection.

What is Hematite? This is a very strong and durable crystal that is known for its rich, deep color and metallic shine. Its natural color is blood red due to its high amount of iron, but you’ll often find it in black and brown.

It’s commonly found in South Africa and Brazil and has been celebrated by humanity for centuries. It was used by ancient Egyptians to create drawings on cave walls. Ancient Greeks named the gemstone “haima” after their word for “blood.” Native Americans used hematite as war paint.

Benefits of Wearing a Hematite Bead Bracelet The main use for hematite is for protection — something it’s been used for over thousands of years. This is due to the gemstone’s durability and strength. Soldiers and warriors used to carry hematite into battle. Mothers would keep hematite near them during childbirth. Wear a hematite bead bracelet during a time when you need protection or strength, like a job interview, triathlon, or dinner with in-laws.

Hematite is also a great gemstone for building confidence and feeling grounded. That’s because it’s linked to the root chakra, helping you stay stable in everyday life. Wear a hematite bead bracelet to fight against bad habits and ward off negative feelings.

Hematite is also said to be beneficial to your circulatory system and has been known to help reduce blood pressure.

Stay Grounded If you want to stay grounded, try wearing your hematite during a brief meditation before you start the day. Sit somewhere quiet and make sure both of your feet are flat on the floor. Hold the bracelet in your non-dominant hand or keep it on that wrist. Then close your eyes, breathe deeply in through your nose, and relax.

As you relax, try to focus on the hematite. You’ll feel its energy flow through you from your hand, into your arm, and then your shoulder, throat, and spine. It will then push out the bottom of your feet, creating roots into the ground. Visualize these roots growing beneath you.

Can You Wear a Hematite Bead Bracelet All Day? Yes! You can wear this gemstone all day, every day.

Hematite, whether you choose a metallic black bracelet or a colorful rainbow one, it may help to absorb negative energy around you and keep you focused throughout the day. Wear it while exercising, working, or going out with friends. You’ll feel confident, positive, and ready to take on any challenge.

Just remember that your hematite bead bracelet should be cleansed after a longer use since it absorbs negative energy.

You don’t want to wear this bracelet at night, however. Since hematite is known to keep you energized and focused, it may make it more difficult to sleep. Don’t keep your hematite bracelet near your bed at night.
