As children we learn how to suppress the parts of ourselves that are unacceptable through our parents or others. However, these parts are never eradicated, instead they are slipped into the coffins of our psyches like secrets. Often aspects of our shadow selves will sneak out of this protective encasing and will rear their intense heads when we least expect it, or, these aspects are parts of ourselves that we choose to face and integrate into our adult personalities.

After the death of Prince Albert, Queen Victoria fell into a deep grief that was shared by the nation.

To “Tell the Bees” is considered an ancient practice, traced as far back as Hellenistic Greece, perhaps even earlier. Hives and bees were an important part of life as honey and beeswax were valuable goods - beeswax provided a clean burning material for candles to bring light into small dark places - an apt metaphor for lighting the way in dark times and dark spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe oracle site at Delphi was said to have been created by bees; even the Pythia were referenced as 'bee oracles'. While much has been written about how the Pythia's trance-like states were induced, one possible theory links their prophecy to the consumption of 'mad honey.'

In small doses in can bring on feelings of euphoria, intoxication and hallucinations, in larger doses it causes a variety of unpleasant symptoms and in rare cases, death. The poison is in the dosage. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe practice of Telling the Bees, involved all major life events, keeping them included as one would with any other close family member. They were told of marriages, births, \u0026amp; perhaps most well known, deaths. The hives were heaved up at the same time the coffin was, and they were also decorated with funerary crepes. Cakes were also fed to the bees after funerals and weddings. It was believed that if a hive was not told of these life events, they would leave the hive, or even die. I like to think people would whisper secrets to the hives they could tell no one else, making the bees secret keepers. In the vein of this idea, use this ring as a talisman for your secrets, whisper them to it and bring it 'alive' as a companion for secret keeping.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInspired by sacred devotion, these rings mark what devotion can be to us: we are devoted to the living, the dead, our dreams and our ideas.

Sometimes we are asked to put our devotion aside. We remain devoted to people even when they have left us, either exiting the relationship or the living world.

My godmother is an auctioneer and took me along to auctions and estate sales. Treasure for me were always the wooden boxes filled with greasy and dirt caked keys, beautiful with their time earned patina, with their memories and silent stories. As a kid, I imagined every beautiful key I came across no matter how small or large, belonged to a haunted house. Even the tiny keys that came with my school fair diary were special to me. Keys have that sort of resiliency that many other sorts of old objects don’t, they survive the wear and tear of misuse, they surface like relics from the muck of time. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeys are an ancient tool, created first by the Ancient Egyptians in wood and modified by the Romans in metal and made small enough to be kept on a person, coined as the first ‘skeleton keys’. These were used, as now, to lock doors and boxes or 'safes', to protect precious objects and people. Thusly one of the mundane and ubiquitous tool has also come to garner potent symbolism over time and has been woven into a current everyday object that even digital technology can’t seem to make obsolete. At the time of my writing this, I still use metal keys to gain entrance to my apartment and studio; I moved out of a house in Philadelphia in 2020 in one of the oldest parts of the city that still employed the use of skeleton keys. Perhaps the key is an object where the old world and the new continually shoulder up against each other, no matter how much modern technology tries to replace them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a talismanic jewel the key is a liminal object representing a potent tension and duality as it can both lock and unlock, making the person who holds the key, one on a threshold.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*For locking: Being able to lock something behind you will always give the power and feeling of protection, therefore keys will always have the symbolism of protection embedded in them. The first key I can remember owning was a tiny key that fit to a tiny lock that latched onto a diary I owned in elementary school where I kept all of my secrets. This consisted of all of the titles of the books I’d write, but they sounded like spells, things I desperately wanted to change about myself; revenge I’d like to take on bullies. These days, protecting my loved ones, my heart, and extending protection to those I can feels most important to me. Feeling safe and helping others feel safe in my presence is something I'm always thinking about, and the presence of a key against my body helps remind me of these tenants and makes me feel safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e*For unlocking: Keys as objects that can 'unlock' show up as symbols across cultures. It’s a symbol of gaining access: for some it's about knowledge and wisdom or about gaining access to higher or unearthly realms: Saint Peter was known to hold the keys to heaven while Hecate is known to hold the keys to the unseen world\/ the gates of death. As an initiatory symbol, it suggests garnering levels of knowledge that lead upwards on your path, or crossing thresholds of the unconscious. It also suggests the ability of survival, of being able to find 'a way out', of reaching a place where you are able to unlock or solve an obstacle that was complex or troubling, such as a Sphinx's riddle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*Details* :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 51 mm from top to bottom\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 29 mm wide\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Solid Sterling Silver  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBoth pendant and chain are\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e hand oxidized to achieve our favorite shade of stormy gray and then highlighted to reveal the bright luminous silver beneath\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Set with one 13 x 18 mm oval labradorite stone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Shown on Miguel at 20'\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabradorite:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabradorite is known for its healing properties, in particular for its ability to relieve anxiety \u0026amp; melancholy.

To “Tell the Bees” is considered an ancient practice, traced as far back as Hellenistic Greece, perhaps even earlier. Hives and bees were an important part of life as honey and beeswax were valuable goods - beeswax provided a clean burning material for candles to bring light into small dark places - an apt metaphor for lighting the way in dark times and dark spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe oracle site at Delphi was said to have been created by bees; even the Pythia were referenced as 'bee oracles'.

In small doses in can bring on feelings of euphoria, intoxication and hallucinations, in larger doses it causes a variety of unpleasant symptoms and in rare cases, death.

They were told of marriages, births, \u0026amp; perhaps most well known, deaths. The hives were heaved up at the same time the coffin was, and they were also decorated with funerary crepes. Cakes were also fed to the bees after funerals and weddings. It was believed that if a hive was not told of these life events, they would leave the hive, or even die. I like to think people would whisper secrets to the hives they could tell no one else, making the bees secret keepers. In the vein of this idea, use this talisman for your secrets, whisper them to it and bring it 'alive' as a companion for secret keeping.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*Details*:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 34 mm from top to bottom\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 36 mm wide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Solid Sterling Silver\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Both pendant and chain are hand oxidized to achieve our favorite shade of stormy gray and then highlighted to reveal the bright luminous silver beneath\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Set with one 10 mm fine cut hexagon stone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Seen on Miguel at 20 inches and paired with the Bee ring found here\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabradorite:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabradorite is known for its healing properties, in particular for its ability to relieve anxiety \u0026amp; melancholy.
