Pewter Buddha Touching the Earth Pendant Gautama Buddha was born in 563BC in northeast India. The Buddha was the son of the King of the Sakyas, Suddhodana, who ruled at Kapilavastu, on the border of Nepal. His mother was Queen Maya. He was named Siddhartha. He lived amidst the pleasures of palace life and at age 16 was married to Princess Yasodhara. They had a son named Rabula. After seeing a decrepit old man, and invalid, and an ascetic beggar, he learned of suffering and decided to embrace asceticism. Soon afterwards, at age 29, Siddhartha left the palace and his family and went to a hermitage where he became the monk Gautama, or, as he is still called, Sakyamuni (The ascetic of the Sakyas). Once day, meditating under a sacred figtree, he attained perfect illumination (Bodhi). He had become a Buddha. From there on he traveled and preached for 44 years what was to become one of the main religions of the world. He died at Kusinagara at age 80.

A spiritual people, their rich mythology and symbology later merged with the Christian beliefs they embraced to create a distinctive art seen especially in Ireland and Scotland.

Celtic Crosses began to appear during the fifth century A.D., it's shape is derived from a pagan sun symbol, the sunwheel, which later became a symbol of the Christian Godhead. The sunwheel was originally a cross surrounded by a circle with a center stone representing the sun and mock suns at the four quarters. The stone at the center of the circle also represents the navel of the world. The stone pillar of the cross also embodies phallic and fertility characteristics. The cross represents eternal life; it's horizontal axis being the earthly world and the vertical axis the heavenly world coming together as the union of Heaven and Earth. Celtic Crosses are imbued with continuous and interwoven knot and spiral motifs symbolizing the continuity of life, death and rebirth.

The Sun - Sterling Silver The ancient symbol of God, the Sun is the light, our source of heat, our one true rejuvenating force. Masculine in nature, it carries the soul and spirit higher, purifying and elevating in love and light, reducing us to our essence of humanity, giving us yet another day of glorious life and heat. The Egyptian Pharoah Akhenaten spoke highly of the Sun as his one God. Or more accurately, he perceived the sun as a representation of all that is good and alive in our world, a symbol of life, knowledge and energy. The Sun is quite simply the most powerful force known to man. Each piece is accompanied by an 18" "Wheat Rope" chain, a genuine velvet gift box and a small descriptive pamphlet. $95.00 Quantity:

The Five Elements - Silver Fire, Earth, Metal, Water, Wood. These are the Five Elements of Taoist philosophy, showing the five aspects of our natural existence, and the importance of a delicate balance. Also very useful in Chinese medicine, the elements are on the pendant in a clockwise order. It's called the "engendering" or "creation" cycle when you follow them in this order, one encouraging the other's qualities. It's called the "control" cycle when you follow them across from each other - that's what makes the star shape: fire controls metal, metal controls wood, wood controls earth, earth controls water, water controls fire, to restore balance when one element dominates the others. The pendant has been created to evoke an ancient Chinese coin, with more weight to it than many other Alythea pieces. Each piece is accompanied by an 18" "Wheat Rope" chain, a genuine velvet gift box and a small descriptive pamphlet. $140.00 Quantity:

The Phoenix a.k.a. "The Bennu". Known as a popular symbol of Resurrection, the Phoenix is embraced by those who have been purified in the fire of life, scorched to mere ashes, and yet, born anew, they rise to pursue life with a renewed vigor and fresh perspective. They now carry the knowledge in their heart of their true nature, and an appreciation for the finer qualities in life. The 5000 year old Egyptian heiroglyph used in our pendant is known as "Bennu", and is the forerunner of the Greek myth of the Phoenix. In Greek literature, Herodotus tells of a bird who, every 500 years, senses its own impending death, and builds a funeral pyre of scented herbs. Sitting upon the pyre, the Phoenix sings the sweetest five note song imaginable, whereby the Sun rises, its rays ignite the pyre, and the bird is engulfed in flames and reduced to ashes. Out of the ashes comes a baby bird that gathers the previous remains in a ball of sweet smelling myhrr and flies to Heliopolis to bury the ashes of the last incarnation in the temple. When you've gone through changes as dramatic as the Bennu, and have rebuild upon the ashes of a burnout situation, the phoenix is a totem of hope and achievement. Each piece is accompanied by an 18" "Wheat Rope" chain, a genuine velvet presentation gift box and a small descriptive pamphlet The Phoenix, Sterling Silver $125.00 Quantity:

The Ichthus The potent and established symbol of Christianity The fish symbol was embraced by the Early Christians as a symbol of fidelity to the Christian faith. Christ was known to describe his disciples as Fishers of Men and many of his followers were indeed fishermen by trade. Eventually, the Greek word Ichthus which denotes fish or fertility was re-purposed as an early acronym: "Lesous Christos Theou Uios Soter," or "Jesus Christ, the Son of God, Saviour." The legend has it that upon meeting a stranger, early Christians used to swipe one arc of the Ichthus in the sand. If that stranger was also a follower of Christ, they would complete the diagram, thereby signifying that they could be trusted, and it was safe to speak of more spiritual issues. "We, little fishes, after the image of our Ichthys, Jesus Christ, are born in the water." - Tertullian, second century theologian Each piece is accompanied by an 18" "Wheat Rope" chain, a genuine velvet presentation gift box and a small descriptive pamphlet.

The Seed of Life Sacred Geometry at its finest. Sacred geometry is the study of symbology in mathematical form and construction. It is an endeavour towards knowledge and understanding of the basic rules of our universe. The Seed of Life is a classic geometrical figure simply constructed and understood. It dates from all ages and is even found inscribed at the Temple of Osiris at Abydos, Egypt, as well as other temple structures around the world. The sacred geometry in the pendant is a potent symbol of each individual aspect of creation and how they all spring from one single source - plainly showing the relative interconnectedness of all things, multiplying, just as a cell "divides", when reproducing. We all share this bond. Each piece is accompanied by an 18" Wheat Rope chain, a genuine velvet gift box and a small descriptive pamphlet. The Seed of Life, Sterling Silver $95.00 Metal Quantity:
