It obtained its shape from a crucifixion, where people who violated the laws of ancient Rome were often executed. But it was originally taken from Carthage and spread by Phoenician colonists, who also used the crucifix as an instrument of execution. The word itself is an interpretation of the Latin term crux, denoting such an instrument of execution. The deprivation of life by crucifixion, to which Jesus Christ was subjected, was carried out only for thieves by Roman governors. However, Christian believers of that era were also oppressed by Rome and executed similarly. The cross was used in religion long before our era. There are mentions of it in written monuments from Egypt, China, and other famous nations. The cross was a symbol of the unification of the four main elements. It was later represented with equal sides. For example, in ancient India, the jars used to collect water from a sacred river were marked with a cross, and in China it appeared on temple lanterns. The long necklace is elaborately crafted with White Natural Pearls, cultured in freshwater. The entire necklace was handmade with a knot after every pearl. The thread is a silk-cotton blend. The clasp is 925 silver. Pearls provide positive energy that allows the soul to purify when close to the heart. 2) Pendant detached with Mother of Pearl (22 x 17), Agate and Hematite Square Cross. 925 silver.

Superior quality Size: 10 mm Earrings size: 20 x 10 mm Weight: 2 g Total weight: 155 g The Greek cross is a cross with four arms of equal length forming right angles; its correct name is the Immisa Quadrata Cross. In this cross, the shaft and the crossbar are perfectly split in half. Other names include the Eastern Cross as used by Christianity in these regions and also the Equilateral Cross. It is a cross formed by four arms of equal length crossing at right angles. Typical of Byzantine art, it alternated over the centuries with the Latin cross as the basis of church layout. Its four equal arms and the ability to fit inside a square make the Greek cross an idealized cross representing the Divine nature of Christ. This was the cross of early Christianity until the Renaissance, after which Latin crosses were used in Rome. It is still used in Eastern Europe and in parts of the Orthodox Church. Although its name suggests it originated in Greece, that is not the case. The Greek cross appears in the East thanks to Christians who lived in these territories. The cross was based on the Immis cross on which Jesus died, but with a shorter shaft, giving it a symmetric aesthetic so it could be seen from any direction. It is believed that the use of this cross in the East was influenced by the True Cross, which was located in Jerusalem. Helena of Constantinople, also known as Saint Helena, dedicated her life to finding the relics of the True Cross (the cross on which Jesus was crucified). Around 326, she went to Jerusalem to investigate its location. She finally said she found the place where the true cross and Jesus’ tomb were located. Her son Constantine then built a church at the same site where an ancient temple once stood, erected to Venus (Roman) or Aphrodite (Greek). This church was known as the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, in the area of the old city of Jerusalem. Having found the cross on which Jesus died, Saint Helena cut off the lower part of the Cross (about a fifth of its height) and sent it to Rome as a relic known as Lignum Crucis. She left the remaining cross in Jerusalem, which, when cut, took the form of a Greek cross. The Greek cross was also part of the Byzantine Empire’s flag: a yellow Greek cross on a red background. The meaning of the Greek cross is protection and balance due to its symmetrical shape with arms of equal length. It is also believed to be a representation of God, while the Latin cross, as we know it, is an image of the crucifixion of Christ. This is open to interpretation, as we have seen, since the origin of this cross is tied to the birth of the Christian cross. Pearls possess oceanic powers, which means you can access the deepest thoughts and help make the best possible decisions. The sea, associated with peace and tranquility, is offered by the pearl with its magical powers. Not everything—pearls also protect against enemies; the sea is full of hazards, which is why this stone has accumulated so much protective power to prevent negative energies from accumulating and harming our life. But that’s not all. The pearl provides positive energy to empower changes: if you want to move to a new city, if you are relocating, if you have changed jobs, or any situation really, this spiritual stone as an amulet can help make those things as good as possible. New projects can be enhanced by the pearl’s magical powers. Whatever you want to undertake will have strong positive energy and will help you achieve the expected success at the right moment. Never rush things, because then the pearl’s powers won’t work. The healing powers of the pearl should not be forgotten. First, it helps align the chakras, bringing greater calm, peace, serenity, and balance, which is fundamental in life for any person. Stress will leave our lives and emotions will balance. The pearl should be worn as close to the body as possible so the body can revitalize. It will be shipped in a gift box. Handmade jewelry. Photos are part of the description.
