Sand dollar, a mermaid’s money ~ Sterling Silver Body Jewelry BJ012

Wandering along the seashore, I discover a flower radiating in five petals. Sand dollars! A breathing bouquet drawn by hundreds of tubular tentacles extending from within its shell, Sand dollars are bound in mystic history.

They symbolize the divine presence on earth’s creations and the five angels of the wise men on Christ’s birth. They are thought as coins dropped by the people in Atlantis and tokens forgotten by mermaids. Beautiful and delicate. Sand dollars are divine’s gift handcrafted in this sterling silver anklet of DiveSilver Jewelry.

Carried whichever way the tide pleases, they are observed to flow with the ocean. Sand dollars teach us to go with the flow and be flexible in our thinking at any given moment and time.

Star Fish BJ015

One bright summer morning a man was walking down the beach, his toes digging into the sand, when he saw a young boy walking down closer to the water. Curious, the man came closer and saw that the beach was covered in Star Fish, brought up in the high tide and sure to die before the tide returned. The man called out to the boy, "Son, I know you mean well, but there's a hundred miles of beach here and thousands of Star Fish. Do you really think what you're doing makes a difference?" The boy lifted up another Star Fish and gently flung it into the sea, "It makes a difference to that one." -Legend of the Starfish

Nautilus BJ095

The nautilus's most distinguishing feature is its spiral-coiled, chambered shell. It grows by adding new chambers to its shell, each one 6.3 percent larger than the last. The shell's mathematically perfect proportion reminds us that its growth is intentional and part of nature's plan, just as we need a life's plan in order to grow ourselves. The nautilus also serve as a reminder that we only need to grow a little bit at a time— and 6.3 percent growth is a very possible amount! “The growth of understanding follows an ascending spiral rather than a straight line” - Joanna Field

Seahorse Body Jewelry BJ006

The seahorse is an anomaly in nature. A fish, but one what exists vertically rather than horizonally. Coverd in armour, but not a fighter. Sea Horses mate monogomously and share time together in a way that can only be described as loving. “Poetry is the journal of a sea animal living on land, wanting to fly in the air” - Carl Sandburg

Dolphins Body Jewelry BJ008

Dolphins are well beloved by humans for their gentle nature and quiet strength. They're famous for guiding lost ships, traveling through the waters at their sides. Dolphins are much like people; highly social, imaginative, and creative. "To the dolphin alone, nature has given that which the best philosophers seek: Friendship for no advantage. Though it has no need of help from any man, it is a genial friend to all and has helped mankind."- Plutarch

Fish Body Jewelry BJ007

The fish is ubiqious both as a symbol and as a genus with varying meanings from the symbol of fertility and abundance to the symbol of prophecy and dreams. "Many men go fishing their entire lives without knowing it is not fish they are after.” - Henry David Thoreau

Shark Tooth BJ004

The Shark is a symbol of constance and strength, unchanged for millenia Determined and focused, the shark is a sign of permanence.“The shark heart slows down in the cold, just as our own heart would. But what sets it apart is where our heart would simply stop, the shark keeps on ticking.” - Barbara Block
