The familiar could also be a bird, such as the blackbirds of the crow or raven, or amphibians: toads were historically associated with witches and still are today. However, none are as well known in the collective imagination as the cat, often seen beside the witch of fairytale, folklore and horror alike. Depicted riding astride the witch on her broomstick or nearby her while she concocts potions in her cauldron, these fantastical depictions are not far from what accusers in the witch trials believed familiars were capable of: assisting the witch in all manner of malefic endeavors such as riding to the Sabbath on or as her familiar, using her familiar to curse or hex her neighbors or undertake  other tasks for the witch in her stead. In many cases, women, often women who were anti-social loners, elderly and living alone,  or otherwise occupying the fringes of society in some way, were more apt to keep small animals for companionship. This unfortunately marked “innocent” women as witches during the witchcraze that swept Europe and parts of the US simply for being devoted cat people, as many people are today, for similar reasons. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhether or not people keep cats today for use as vessels for familiar spirits, Cats have a long history of being revered as powerful creatures.

There, the lives of cats, as elsewhere in Egypt, were protected and their deaths were honored by mummification.

This has tied it to the myth of the Goddess Persephone in some of its lore, who is as inseparable to the Pomegranate and its fateful seeds as Eve is to the apple of Eden. This association, admittedly, is what first drew me to Garnet, but its long and storied history, spanning many cultures and parts of the world is as fascinating as just about any other gemstone of my acquaintance. I also fell for its uncanny beauty, which  like a glowing ember one can wear on the skin, appears alive like fire does. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs an ancient gemstone, the Egyptians knew of its power and beauty, which seems to be the seal of magical authenticity on the stone as it was found not only amongst grave goods but also within the settings of talismans wrapped in the layers of mummies to protect the body on its journey to the afterlife. I imagine it being present with its wearer before the weighing of the heart, as it’s a stone closely aligned with the heart ( akin in this way, to Rose Quartz. ) \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreated under extreme pressure and temperatures in the darkness of the subterranean realms, Garnet persists and thrives under these difficult circumstances - suggesting strength and personal resiliency. It’s also, like the Phoenix, associated with fire and its transformative properties, rising from extremely high temperatures. It’s considered to be a stone of creativity, as it’s ‘blood’ colored and associated with fire and the heart, ( as mentioned above) suggesting a quickening of the blood, a call to creative action, passion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis passion also extends to both romantic and platonic relationships, the stone was given to strengthen bonds between friends and lovers due to its association with the Persephone myth in a strange nod to how Pomegranate seeds kept Persephone bond to the Underworld for part of the year\/ being returned to the Upper realms for Spring\/Summer, ( this also made it a traveler’s stone) as well as for its color being similar to heart’s blood. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother interesting bit : in the Medieval Ages it was considered to ward off Melancholy and also, interestingly, to be the material that Dragon’s eyes were made of. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll in all, Garnet is a wildly magical and highly potent stone, beautiful, ancient and intense; a personal raging fire to keep close- to remind you that you belong to the land of the living.

Sometimes they are called ‘Sunset Labs’ for the way they appear to hold the melting colors of the setting sun - pinks and lavenders as well as even hints of flaming reds and deep purples, are all married within one stone. Other stones under the name ‘Belladonna’ (which is my personal nickname ) vary from the purples of wet oyster shells to the pale lavender of the petals of belladonna flowers - each stone is unique and carries within it its time underground - where under pressure, its glorious colors bloomed within. Interestingly, it’s light that enables its range of colors to be reveled - turning it in the light, while on the finger or in ones hand - creates a kind of ‘shapeshifting’ effect - the internal fractures and layers within the stone allow for different colors within the stone shift, flash, and to reveal themselves differently. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis jewel is hand cut and therefore may have small signs of the carver's hands along the edges.

The symbolism of this special insect is based on the reproductive habits of the beetles: the way in which they roll dung balls and deposit their fertilized egg\/s within, treating the ball of waste as a kind of nursery that provides nutrients and protection. When a newly hatched beetle emerges from the dung ball, it does so fully formed, a “marvel” the ancient Egyptians noticed and used to create one of the most enduring symbols of human history. This symbol was important to both everyday Egyptians as well as to royalty (akin to the Cross) and was one that would spread beyond the borders of Egypt and across time, as we still wear the sacred scarab today. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRepresentative of the Sun God Ra, specifically Khepri, the scarab faced God that rolled the early morning disc of the Sun over the eastern horizon daily, the scarab was worn as a protective amulet against evil and as a good luck charm. Made of a variety of materials, it was worn close to the body, as well as used in funerary customs. Funerary scarabs are much larger than their everyday counterparts and are called ‘Heart Scarabs’. The Ancient Egyptians had intense and rigorous funerary rituals and customs, especially for royalty and the wealthy, as the afterlife was of utmost importance to them; death was considered the process of transformation that led to the portal of the afterlife, where one would live on for eternity. The heart, considered the seat of human thought, intelligence, and emotion, was left in the body while many other organs were removed. This was so that it could be weighed in a trial of judgement before a person was permitted to pass into the afterlife. A Heart Scarab was kept with the body to help protect the heart from giving ‘false testimony’ or telling lies due to external influence. It behaved as a magical protector during the “weighing of the heart’, containing a magical spell from The Book of the Dead on its bottom: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eO my heart which I received from my mother,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003emy heart which I received from my mother,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003emy heart of my different ages,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003edo not stand up against me as a witness!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDo not create opposition against me among the assessors!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDo not tip the scales against me\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein the presence of the Keeper of the Balance!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYou are my soul which is in my body,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethe god Khnum who makes my limbs sound.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen you go forth to the Hereafter,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003emy name shall not stink to the courtiers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewho create people on his behalf.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDo not tell lies about me\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein the presence of the Great God! \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHere, the symbol of the scarab is paired with the cat, which was also viewed as an important creature in ancient Egyptian society.

However, none are as well known in the collective imagination as the cat, often seen beside the witch of fairytale, folklore and horror alike. Depicted riding astride the witch on her broomstick or nearby her while she concocts potions in her cauldron, these fantastical depictions are not far from what accusers in the witch trials believed familiars were capable of: assisting the witch in all manner of malefic endeavors such as riding to the Sabbath on or as her familiar, using her familiar to curse or hex her neighbors or undertake  other tasks for the witch in her stead. In many cases, women, often women who were anti-social loners, elderly and living alone,  or otherwise occupying the fringes of society in some way, were more apt to keep small animals for companionship.
