Did you know that pearls and pearl jewelry have meaning in the Chinese Taoist culture of Feng Shui? Taoism is the religion of nature, and the fundamental principles of Feng Shui are derived from nature. The basic idea behind Feng Shui is to promote harmony between humans and nature. The concept of Feng Shui uses the energy within us and the elements around us to build balance between humans and the environment.
Wearing jewelry is geomantic as well as aesthetic. Adorning oneself with suitable jewelry can have a positive effect on one’s luck and health. Your jewelry should be a match between your inner energy and the jewelry’s energy.
Pearls and Feng Shui Significance
Freshwater pearls and saltwater pearls have similar properties. However, the colors of pearls also have significant energy in terms of Feng Shui.
If you happen to be born under the water signs of Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces, wearing pearl jewelry can be extra auspicious.
Jewelry and Medicine are Linked
n ancient China, the practice of wearing jewelry emerged at about the same time as people discovered that certain plants and natural substances could have therapeutic effects on their health and cure them of different illnesses and conditions.
Pearls are used in Chinese medicine as well as in jewelry. The pearl has been identified as having a level of power and energy that can also be therapeutic. The pearl is a water sign element. If you’re prone to having a fiery temper and need more water energy, wearing pearl jewelry is a way to calm you down. This is an example of incorporating the principles of Feng Shui to gain the greatest benefit from wearing pearl jewelry.
Significance of Different Types of Jewelry
The types of jewelry you wear also have a significance. We’ll list and describe the significance of certain types of jewelry.
Rings
Rings decorate the hands. The hands represent intelligence and thinking. Wearing rings puts an emphasis on clear thinking and can help you express yourself better and increase your mental acuity.
Bracelets
Bracelets also affect the hands and promote clear thinking and better decision-making. Wearing bracelets can promote lucid thinking and rationality in the practice of Feng Shui. Bracelets also represent receiving welcome gifts, including good news as well as money.
Earrings
Earrings adorn the ear, which represent career, income, and business in Feng Shui. Wearing pearl earrings is a great way to provide the calm, rational thinking needed from a water sign when you have an important career decision to make.
Necklaces
Necklaces call attention to the throat, face and head. This is the part of you that is recognizable to others and serves to define you as a person. Wearing a stunning necklace emphasizes your thoughts and ideas as being important in the principles of Feng Shui. A beautiful pearl necklace is like a frame that calls attention to you and what you have to say. When you find your thoughts and opinions being sidelined and ignored, wearing a stunning pearl necklace can give you recognition.
Auspicious Symbols
Many jewelry designers like to incorporate auspicious symbols into their designs. Mystic knots, peacocks, dragons, infinity symbols, eggs, and Chinese coins are just some of the auspicious symbols that can be included as a part of a jewelry design. Wearing pearls that have been incorporated into jewelry featuring auspicious symbols and being born under a water sign, can significantly heighten your luck and protect you from misfortune.
