The cave you fear to enter, holds the treasure you seek.
STORY
Do you know
how stalactites are formed? The process is yet another miracle of Earth.
Stalactites begin with a single drop of mineral-rich water formed on the roof
of a cave. As each drop of water drops from the ceiling of the cave, it leaves
behind the thinnest ring of a calcite deposit. As more and more drops form and fall,
more rings are left behind. These then build upon one another over time, to
create a stunning column hanging from the ceiling known as a stalactite. The
Earring captures that power of moving forward, letting go of past fears and
living in the present courageously with an open mind to new possibilities.
The Emerald
has been a source of fascination and reverence in many cultures for over six
thousand years, sold in the markets of Babylon as early as 4,000 B.C. It was a
stone worshipped by the Incas, believed by the Chaldeans to contain a Goddess,
and was highly honored for its spiritual power and beauty. Emerald was
considered a symbol of eternal life in ancient Egypt, a gift of Thoth, the God
of wisdom, and was a favorite jewel of Queen Cleopatra. The Emerald mines in
Upper Egypt, rediscovered a hundred years ago, are some of the oldest in the
world and were called Cleopatra’s mines for her love of the stone.
