Agatized Coral Cabochon~CRAGCC02. Cabochon is drilled lengthwise, but holes are blocked with tumbling medium, it would have to be wire wrapped, or used as a pocket piece...it was just too pretty not to post! Agatized coral is said to be a gift from the stars that is used to enhance telepathic communication with other realms and dimensions. As  a recorder of time and events they are perfect tools for working on past life memories. It is also helpful for promoting inner peace and quieting disruptive thoughts. Ancient Egyptians placed coral in tombs of the deceased to protect against evil spirits because they believed each coral gem actually contained divine blood. The Romans hung branches of coral around the necks of their children to protect them from danger. In the early 20th century, the people of Italy used coral for protection from the 'evil eye' and many Italians used it for infertility. It is said to stabilize family life by reducing edginess and lies of the ego, bringing wisdom, humility and insight. It is also thought to enhance ones learning abilities. Instead of representing death or loss, Skulls represents the important Buddhist concept of emptiness. In Buddhism, emptiness is considered to be a quality of the universe. This means that phenomena we experience has no inherent nature by itself; instead, we attach meaning to what we experience. It’s basically saying all events are neutral- but we choose to magnify them in our minds. They can also symbolize humility, reminding us that everything outside the skull is vanity. They can also represent humanity, unity, and diversity, because other than subtle differences and size, they are pretty much identical regardless, of age, sex, or race. 36mm x 23mm x 10mm
