14k Yellow Gold Round St. Raphael Medal (31x31MM)

St. Raphael is the patron of travelers, the blind, nurses, physicians, and matchmakers. In the Gospel of John, he is the angel stirring the water at the healing pool of Bethesda. Raphael appears disguised as the travelling companion of Tobit's son, Tobiah, calling himself "Azarias the son of the great Ananias". During the journey, the archangel's protective influence includes the binding of a demon in the desert of upper Egypt. After returning and healing the blind Tobit, Azarias makes himself known as "the angel Raphael, one of the seven, who stand before the Lord." On a corner of Venice's famous Doge's Palace, there is a relief depicting Raphael holding a scroll on which is written: Efficia fretum quietum (“Keep the Gulf quiet”). On July 8, 1497, when Vasco Da Gama set forth from Lisbon to sail to India, the flagship was named the St. Raphael. In popular culture, Raphael is one of the four archangels in the TV series Supernatural, the other three being Michael, Lucifer and Gabriel. His Feast Day is September 29.

It's fitting this is crafted of gold; it's said spiritual energy and power are activated and awakened by wearing or praying with gold. Gold represents the spiritual treasure gained by transforming the spirit; it also represents love in the Bible. Proudly made in America with a green process of ethically, environmentally and socially responsible production processes of water, waste and energy management; this is from 100 percent recycled Karats.

The rising price of gold makes this, quite simply, a great investment all around.
