Seed of Life Pendant- Brass suspending Raw Turquoise Gemstone OOAK!
As I immerse myself more in the practice of yoga, I feel more inspired by sacred geometry, the symbols and their meanings and I'm so excited to bring this new collection to life!
Since ancient times, this symbol has been used by various civilizations and is found in many places all over the world. It looks like a two-dimensional pattern of seven circles of the same size crossing over one another. There is one central circle in the middle, and the remaining six are on the outside and intersect with the central one. The symbol resembles a set of flowers of the same size.
Many researchers of the environment and patterns that occur in nature note that they all have corresponding symbolism. The meaning of this symbolism suggests that the life processes in the Universe as a whole are interconnected. The Seed of Life is based on the concept that life is a divine creation.
Made of brass, 3/4" in diameter, suspended on oxidized 20"/22"" adjustable Sterling Silver chain.
This iteration also features a beautiful raw Turquoise gemstone (1 1/8" tall x 1/2" wide) suspended below the Seed of Life Pendant!
Turquoise is perhaps the oldest decorative stone in mankind's history, the Taliswoman of Kings and Queens, Shamans, and Warriors. It is a stone of protection, strong and opaque, yet soothing to the touch. The delicate veining or mottled webbing in cream or brown is inherent to the stone and serves to enhance its character.
The name Turquoise is derived from the French, pierre turquoise, meaning “Turkish stone,” because the trade routes that brought Turquoise to Europe from the mines in central Asia went through Turkey, and Venetian merchants often purchased the stone in Turkish bazaars.
For thousands of years, Turquoise has spanned all cultures, prized as a symbol of wisdom, nobility and the power of immortality. Among the Ancient Egyptians, Persians and Chinese, Aztecs and Incas of South America, and Native North Americans, Turquoise was sacred in its adornment and for power, luck, and protection. Turquoise strengthens the meridians of the body and the subtle energy fields, enhancing communication between the physical and spiritual worlds. Placed on the Third Eye, it supports intuition and meditation. On the throat chakra, it releases old vows, inhibitions, and allows the soul to express itself once more.
