catscradle Jul. 26th, 2003 08:26 pm)Okay, here are the meditation beads I finished this week. . .
Most are done in a traditional celtic pattern of 3 sets of 9 representing the moon cycle, but I like to use numbers associated with the diety if possible (see Hecate):
This one is made from two-toned fire polshed Czech crytal in alternating blue, lavendar and yellow. The chain is sterling silver and the connector, flowers and charm are made of pewter.
This is one of my favorites. The main beads are made of moss agate, the separator beats are bots agate and the accent beads are wood and mother of pearl. The chain is made from copper with a gun metal tone.
This one needs to be seen in person, as I think the scan missed a lot of the details. The main beads are in a fossil rock that's been dyed blue. The separator beads are pewter with little swirls on them. The accent beads are silver and gray-blue glass. The charm and chain are sterling silver.
The main beads are in gray bots agate, the separator beads are a blue/sliver glass (Believe it or not, one of Athena's gems is "artifical glass" - thought that was odd, but it works for me ;)) and the accent beads are sterling sliver and gray-blue glass. The charm and connector are pewter. The chain is sterling silver.
This is the only rosary I did in a differnt grouping. Her numbers are 7 and 3 - so her beads are in 7 groups of 3. The main beads are in snowflaked obsidian, the separators are in gray bots agate. The accents are in garnet, mother of pearl and silver. The connector is an ankh, which isn't so odd as she's also the Egyptian goddess, Hekat - plus I thought the ankh looked like a three-way crossroad. (She's a crone goddess and also the goddess of crossroads) The charm is pewter and of the self-creating goddess drawing down the moon.
