Growth & Vitality | Wood Collection Rooted in the upward energy of the Wood element, this collection celebrates the spirit of new beginnings. In the 69player philosophy, Wood represents the “Sheng Qi” (vital breath) that inspires creative expansion. These pieces serve as a symbolic anchor for personal evolution, traditionally associated with resilience, renewal, and the courage to flourish in every season of life.
Five versions, one for each element: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. Every bracelet pairs sandalwood and rosewood beads with the stone chosen for that element. Pick the one that matches what you are working on, or wear the whole cycle.
Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product page
Green crystal in barrel beads, carved so the cord runs through the middle of each one. Wood element: the growth piece in the collection, worn through a season when something is supposed to be putting on height.
Green phantom quartz, the variety with a green mineral ghost suspended inside each crystal, set against black onyx. Vision stone on one side, grounding stone on the other, which is the pairing this bracelet is built on.
Green jade beads with a temperature-sensitive Pixiu that changes color as you wear it. In feng shui the Pixiu is kept for wealth and for turning away Sha Qi, the stagnant energy that gathers where nothing moves. Jade is the stone of the Wood element.
White nephrite carved as small flowers, on ear wires. White jade reads as clear rather than bright, which is why the tradition puts it with the Wood element: growth without noise.
Green jade with a carved shell flower. Jade is the Wood element’s stone and the cool side of the collection (6); the shell flower adds the 9. The old term for the way it is meant to be worn is wu wei: less forcing, more waiting for the right moment.
108 beads of white bodhi root with a carved lotus, made for a 108-count practice: one bead per breath, which is how a mala is used in most traditions. The abacus-shaped beads give your thumb something to count.
Green chalcedony, the stone of the Wood element and of spring growth. Sheng Qi is the term for the energy that makes things start, and this is the piece for a beginning: a new job, a new habit, the first week of something.
