Exploring the Symbolism Behind Constellation Jewelry

Updated: Aug 15, 2023


 

"Look up at the stars & not down at your feet.

Try to make sense of what you see,

&

wonder about what makes the universe exist.

Be curious."

-Stephen Hawking

 

When was the last time you paused to appreciate the warmth of the sun on your arms, the sultry whisper of summer breeze on your cheeks?

Right now, I’m trying to make time to be grateful every day. After all,

“every sunrise is a poem written on the earth with words of light, warmth, and love.”

-Debasish Mridha

Our new pup, Dahlia, has been the best teacher. Her infinite curiosity and eagerness to explore on our morning walks have reminded me how beautiful the world is.


She’s like my furry north star!

When you feel lost, how do you find your north star?


For centuries, people have wondered about the brightest star, Sirius.

Known as the ‘Dog Star’, Sirius is most visible during a time when the northern hemisphere is uncomfortably hot – the ‘Dog Days of Summer’.


Greek poets connected Sirius with the overwhelming heat & fever, and Hellenistic astrology thought the star’s return heralded drought, sudden thunderstorms, lethargy, fever, mad dogs and bad luck.

In the Iliad, Homer wrote:

Sirius rises late in the dark, liquid sky

On summer nights, star of stars,

Orion's Dog they call it, brightest

Of all, but an evil portent, bringing heat

And fevers to suffering humanity.


Today, the earth is scorching through record-braking temperatures across the globe. And humanity is struggling with the changes we must make, to ensure these dog days don’t get worse.


The stars might just be the reminder we need to remember what is at stake.


Wear your own reminder to do your part with a recycled silver

Stellar Pendant.

 

"Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet

and the winds long to play with your hair."

— Khalil Gibran
