And a woman spoke, saying Tell us of pain.
And he said:
Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.
- Kahlil Gibran
Build a shield to protect your heart, but what will you learn without taking the risk of getting hurt? Tears may be shed, but tears can reveal to us the unknown depths of our being, foster self-knowledge and confidence.
In alchemy, tears represent a softening or melting of those aspects of the personality that have hardened or become inflexible. So valuable as a psychic factor, tears have been depicted in myth and in dreams as precious jewels, and as the life-giving rays of the sun.
The saltiness of tears connects us with the primordial seawater, with nature. The salt of tears is a symbol of the bitterness that in being shed can be transmuted into wisdom.
The Sapphire Shield Ring is an amulet to bring you closer to yourself.
A symbol of exploration into the depths of your emotions and what lies beneath.
