Risshun marks the beginning of a new cycle—
a season that quietly announces renewal and inner awakening.
At this turning point of the year,
I asked the finished pieces of jewelry a simple question:
“What message do you wish to deliver to your future wearer, right now?”
These are questions meant to help you
gently turn inward through the presence of stone—
and the messages that emerged from those moments of listening.
This time, I selected six pieces of jewelry.
They include amethyst, February’s birthstone,
and a grape chalcedony pendant that came into being
unexpectedly during the creative period leading up to an exhibition.
Each piece carries its own question,
and each stone offered its own answer.
If a particular jewelry piece catches your attention,
or if a certain question lingers in your heart,
I invite you to pause and explore its message.
The words you receive are meant for
the person who will one day wear that jewelry—
and at the same time,
they are also a message for you,
the one reading this page right now.

Q|As the seasons change,
what kind of awakening will this stone bring into my life?
A|
It feels like a gentle clarity,
as if a thin veil of mist before your eyes quietly lifts.
The grip of the past loosens,
and with a renewed sense of ease,
your perspective begins to widen—softly, naturally.
You will find yourself able to face things more directly.
Within ideas you once overlooked,
or small inspirations lingering at the edge of your awareness,
a true dream may begin to reveal itself.
This awakening is not about pleasing others,
but about choosing what brings you joy.
This stone seems ready to carry that shift
gently into your life.
Q|Can this stone bring me the new energy I need right now?
A|
Yes—abundantly.
In particular, it carries energy that expands
communication and human connection.
This year holds strong potential
to move beyond your familiar circle
and begin cultivating new relationships.
You may feel a natural curiosity
toward people, worlds, or values
you never encountered before.
That curiosity is a sign:
you are shedding an old layer.
By adding just a hint of new spice
to a place that already feels safe,
different experiences will begin
to wait for you—gently, patiently.

Q|What new dreams might this jewelry help me remember?
A|
For some, there may be a quiet calling
to step into a role similar to a teacher—
sharing knowledge, wisdom, or ways of being with others.
This is because you possess a gift
for contemplating deeply, weaving insight,
and savoring life with awareness.
Teaching and sharing will naturally
elevate your sense of joy.
Beauty itself.
Speaking about beauty.
Revealing it to the world.
The reason can be anything—
for yourself, for someone else,
or simply because you love it.
The world of beauty itself is your dream.
Let your heart swim freely within that vision.
Dreams will continue to emerge without limits,
becoming gentle talismans
that color and protect your inner world.

Q|As I welcome spring together with this piece,
who will I become?
A|
You will meet a calmer version of yourself—
someone who enjoys being exactly as they are.
Those who have carried many burdens
will find that thoughts, environments, and roles
that are no longer needed
begin to fall away naturally.
What remains
is only what truly matters.
Both body and heart will gradually feel lighter.
What begins in spring
will move toward harvest in autumn—
which is why there is no need to rush.
With a spacious sense of time,
you can enjoy the process itself.
For those who have long been creating
or continuously pushing forward,
this is a moment to trust the flow.
Wrapped in reassurance and quiet faith,
you will come to see each day as
“a day that nourished me.”

Q|What new aspect of myself will this jewelry help me grow?
A|
It nurtures a gentle sense of self-worth—
the feeling that “I am enough as I am.”
Reaching a place where you can say
“I am already fulfilled”
is not an easy thing.
That is why it is important
to extend kindness even to your clumsy parts,
to the moments when you feel you fall short.
The small sides of yourself,
the feelings you once overlooked,
often turn out to be deeper and richer
than you imagined.
This jewelry helps you recognize
that even small events,
small emotions, small flashes of insight
carry unique value—your value.
The words, thoughts, and feelings that arise from you
are always the best expression of that moment.
An awareness that allows you to say,
“Even this version of me is okay.”
This piece will quietly, yet surely,
help the flower of self-acceptance bloom within you.

Q|What new step does this jewelry encourage me to take?
A|
Step forward into connection.
To the comfort and balance of being alone,
add just a small portion—perhaps one-third—of interaction.
Set aside roles, obligations,
and relationships that require constant effort.
Shift from serious mode
into a mode where you simply enjoy your life.
From there, new connections
will begin to unfold naturally.
The key phrase here is:
“I am nurturing.”
There is no need to rush results.
No need to seek answers
in immediate reactions or fleeting signs.
You are in the process of nurturing—
relationships, yourself, and your life as a whole.
By treating yourself as someone who is nurturing,
bonds will deepen and expand
with ease and with just the right sense of distance.

This time, I offered the jewelry
questions that gently accompany
personal growth and heartfelt wishes.
How did it feel for you?
If a sense of excitement emerged,
if you found an insight you needed right now,
or if these pieces became
a little more special to you—
that would make me very happy.
Please feel free to return here anytime,
and receive the message
that resonates with who you are in that moment.
May the words you need
find you, again and again.
