Cameo Moon and Stars in Dragonite or Blue Sandstone Necklace

The cult of the moon, in different eras and cultures, created a rich mythology and symbolism.The crescent moon had been the sacred symbol of the Babylonians, Isis for the Egyptians and Artemis for the Greeks.

In Christianity, in some portraits, the Virgin Mary is depicted with a crescent moon under her feet, indicating how receives the light from the sun and then transmits it back to the world through the child.

The woman-moon principle, which brings light into the darkness of the night.
In the Renaissance the phases of the moon were used in all magical rituals, and people got married, started a new business and they traveled in accordance with them.

So also in the crops, it was believed and still is believed, that the sowings, the crops, are influenced by the phases of the moon.

The cult of the Moon is linked to concepts such as woman, water, fertility, death, rebirth, night.
It is a symbol of cyclical processes, from a passive beginning, because having no light of its own, it reflects the light of the sun, it is a continuous return, from a full light (full moon) passing from a thin crescent (waning moon) to an absence of light (moon in shadow) and then grow again in the fullness of light.

The constant evolution and devolution of the moon in the 4 phases recalls the perpetual process of transformation and regeneration of the change of seasons and is compared to the different ages of human life. .

The name Dragonite derives from the desire to associate an important meaning to such a particular stone.
Since it seems to have the entire galaxy trapped inside, it was also thought that its origins were to be connected to a particular place, so the belief spread that this stone could only be extracted from the head of a sleeping dragon, since, when he woke up, the same stone would have melted making it impossible to pick up.

In reality, Blue Sandstone is not a real mineral, rather a translucent crystalline paste inside which, during the melting, a certain amount of beating of iron, metallic silicon or carbon is added, and which when cooled completely separates from the glass of base, dispersing homogeneously in tiny crystals.

It is therefore the presence of copper deposits that tends to give the material a shimmer reminiscent of the stars in space.
The Blue Sandstone is therefore a blue sandstone, and its characteristics concern the improvement of concentration and the increase of intelligence. It is also believed that it improves work efficiency and study skills.

We can therefore use it in meditation when we want to become aware of who we are and where we come from.

It is also useful for connecting to infinite space, to the sense of the Creation of the cosmos, even simply by observing its changing luminous dots, which seem to wink just like the stars.

Blue Sandstone purification and refill

Being a glass, it does not require special energy purification, although the method of rinsing it under running water and exposing it, in this case, outdoors on a starry night, with or without the presence of the Moon, is always valid.
