Animalier Pendant in 18kt Gold Sacred Animal "Frog"
About the Item
In many cultures the frog is a symbol of magic and healing. It can teach one to jump quickly from one level of consciousness to another; it can also help one find the courage to accept new ideas and push to make changes, teaching one to flow with existence.
The frog boasts an ancient mythology. As an amphibian related to water and earth, it is often associated with the magic of both elements, as well as the traditions of fairies and elves. Many shamanic cultures, especially in North and South America, link the frog to rain and weather control. His voice is said to call the rains. The connection with water also links it to lunar energies and the goddesses associated with the moon. Emotions are often associated with water. Individuals with a frog totem are very sensitive to the emotional states of others and seem to know instinctively how to act, what to say, and how to be sincerely understanding. Frog medicine can bring rain for any purpose, to purify, to heal, to help things mature, to flood, to stimulate.
Frog-shaped amulets were widespread in ancient Egypt.
They were believed to protect against loss of virility and infertility. Because the Egyptians saw countless frogs emerging from the water, they associated them with the renewal of life and fertility.
In Roman times, an amulet depicting a frog was thought to protect the house and its occupants from bad luck.
In the Middle Ages, people used to carry the dried body of a frog in a silk bag to protect themselves from excesses.
There is a Chinese talisman called a moon frog that ensures longevity, opulence and is believed to ward off or scare away evil spirits. It is associated with the moon because, like the moon, it changes its appearance in its various phases of life.
In Japan, the frog represents the ultimate good luck charm: the frog is said to leap over bad luck and misfortune and reach the point of serenity and prosperity. In Italy, Greece and Turkey it is customary to wear a frog-shaped amulet because it brings health, prosperity and material wealth.
The necklace and pendant are created by hand using the lost wax technique entirely in 18kt solid gold.
