Protection Miniature Plate

Description

Plates that are perfect as a ring dish, incense holder, or a teacup saucer. In collaboration with Laboratorio Paravicini, this Miniature Plate represents Protection. The Scarab is meant to shield the wearer...not from a malevolent outside source but from our own negative thoughts. The ones that say, “you can’t do it” or something similar and prevent us from using our energy to build more productive and positive aspects of our lives. The horseshoe is also a symbol of protection, particularly valued for the properties of the metal it's made with, iron, that withstands the fires of adversity & negativity.

    protection

    This piece is derived from the Protection Tenet. We need protection from our own negative thoughts that prevent us from using our energy to build more productive and constructive aspects of our lives. Below are the symbols and their meanings.

    Horseshoe

    The Horseshoe is a symbol of a shield of protection. We chose it as our symbol of Protection particularly due to the Metal it was originally made from; Iron. Iron is a strong metal that withstands fire, an appropriate metaphor for standing against the fire of adversity and negativity.

    Horse

    In the face of adversity, the Latin word Invictus bolsters us. We can be hurt physically, financially, emotionally; yet our soul is unconquerable.“ I thank whatever gods may be for my unconquerable soul... I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul. “ Invictus c. 1875 William Ernest Henley

    Fire Symbol

    The divine triangle is associated with pyramids & sacred mountains;
    within the elements it is Fire, representing the journey of self discovery &
    transformation.

    Scarab

    The scarab is an ancient Egyptian symbol of Khepera, a form of the Sun God, who transforms inert matter into action, creates life and is a powerful protector.

    With its point downward, the divine triangle is an ancient symbol of femininity, suggestive of a chalice, or a cup; holding a reservoir of collective feminine energy. Within the elements, it represents Water.
