Looking down at one's hands, thumbs touching and pointer fingers curving to almost touching. God spark across the imposed chasm, energy of the universe kind of thing. An extra clue when artists imprint lightning bolts on the Naja. Also blossom beads show energy coming from a "core" and spreading out from that core. Made from silver, the protective metal, this is one powerful necklace. So as you said, it may have come down from wherever in the collective unconscious, but Native Americans said, "cool, I'm going to spend months making a necklace that doesn't mean anything?" Nope. Not happening. Thanks for letting me think through this on your post!ANN of Indyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15725703887883192839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020726079869673159.post-21476368039377929092019-11-23T09:22:59.724-07:002019-11-23T09:22:59.724-07:00Thanks for the kind words, Laurie!

I was hoping it had some really cool and powerful (positively so) symbology, but nonetheless, I really love the design, and will give my own meaning to it if I purchase one some day. Thanks for doing most of the legwork for me. :) Adventure Wellnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06125908048133738773noreply@blogger.com
