May 27, 2022
Astronomy-inspired jewellery motifs, such as sun, moon and stars, as well as the zodiac signs, are symbols that were worshiped in ancient cultures. Early civilizations attributed magical and mystical powers to them, thanks to which they became talismans willingly used, among others, in jewellery designs.
Zodiac signs
According to astrology, there are 12 zodiac signs that are associated with the constellation of stars. Each of them is visible in the sky for a month, and therefore it is believed that this particular star configuration affects our character, predispositions, talents and even our life history. The zodiac signs are assigned astrological symbols that refer to the date of birth.
What a talisman for the zodiac sign
1. Aries (March 21 – April 19)
2. Taurus (April 20 – May 22)
3. Gemini (May 23 – June 21)
4. Cancer (June 22 – July 23)
5. Leo (July 24 – August 22)
6. Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
7. Libra (September 23 – October 22)
8. Scorpio (October 23 – November 22)
9. Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
10. Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
11. Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
12. Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Many people around the world believe that the date of their birth and the arrangement of the stars in the sky on that day, hides a secret knowledge about ourselves and our fate. However, even if we are far from believing in astrology, it cannot be denied that on the day of our birth, there was a certain configuration of stars that distinguishes us from others.
Zodiac charms
Regardless of whether we believe in the history written in the stars or not, jewelry with the signs of the zodiac is very popular and is a great idea for a personalized gift. It is also an individual way to express yourself and highlight your passions. A common way of using these mysterious symbols in jewellery is a zodiac pendant.
Our astrology-inspired collection consists of components in the form of two joined hoops, a smaller of which represents the sign of the zodiac, and the larger one, almost 2 cm in diameter, is plain and has an engraving with the zodiac name in the lower part. The hoops are made of sterling silver and connected with each other with an open jump ring, which can be used to connect the pendant with other jewellery findings. An example of this collection is the capricorn pendant, which can be combined with different types of chains and earring hooks – creating phenomenal ornaments for the ears. These types of jewelry will surely appeal to the tastes of customers who love accessories that carry a certain message behind.
This category also includes similar products, in the form of a single rim with a soldered loop, to which you can attach a jump ring or other jewelry settings, such as leverback findings. These pendants present the zodiac sign inside the rim and are available in both silver 925 and gold 585. It is worth bearing in mind that the gold pendants are not equipped with a jump ring, so they can be used both as classic pendants, and connectors. Gold jewelry supplies look charming in combination with other gold components, but the current jewelry trends suggest mixing different materials with each other. Following this hint, they will also perfectly correspond with silver findings. An example of gold collection is the leo pendant.
Another range of our astral-themed products are pendants without a rim, presenting an independent silver sign of the zodiac, in a size of about 15 mm, with a soldered loop. These items are 3D casts, whose spatial and clear shapes emphasize the shine, regardless of whether the elements are silver or will be additionally coated with a gold, rhodium or platinum layer. An example of a model from this collection is the gemini pendant. Its minimalist design makes it perfect to match everyday outfits.
In addition to ready jewellery designs, which just need to be hung on chain link necklaces or earring frames to create a final jewellery, our offer also includes pendant mounts for sticking crystals. These products are a connector type that can be combined with a bracelet or necklace settings. They are sterling silver castings which pattern corresponds to the constellations of stars associated with the signs of the zodiac. Their designs contain holes for the placement of crystals, stones or other decorative items with a diameter of about 2.45 mm. An alternative are sterling silver findings with the same patterns, but with GAVBARI crystals already glued in. Such a duo is an elegant and original proposal for clients who care about their image. An example of this collection is the scorpio pendant.
Zodiac jewelry
The pendants with the zodiac sign will match the different types of chains. You can combine them with delicate designs like a snake chain, or a ball chain, but these products will also look great on weaves with larger links – such as textured paperclip necklace chain by the meter. When making silver necklaces from loose chain, in order to close their circumference, you should choose the jewelry clasps. For example, a lobster claw clasp or a toggle clasp. Jewellery created in this way will surely meet the expectations of customers looking for amulets, subtly referring to the date of birth of the owner. A zodiac necklace is also a great idea for accessories with a deeper meaning and history in the background, which will be perfect for any occasion.
While the most common amulet is a necklace, it doesn’t mean that you can’t compose other accessories using these magical silver supplies. The zodiac sign is also a perfect pattern for creating ornaments for the ears. A simple way for making earrings is to choose some earring findings from our offer, such as stud earrings, ear wires or leverbacks – and connect them with a pendant. If you plan to make long earrings, choose marquise earrings or threader earrings made of chains. These types of earrings will make the zodiac pendant beautifully displayed in the front part of the ear, fully reflecting their symbolic character.
Zodiac pendants allow you to create jewellery not only decorating the neckline and ears, but also wrists or ankles – as bracelets. While hoop pendants may be too large to decorate them, pendants with crystals in combination with bracelet settings will look remarkable, stylish and elegant. What’s more, the option to match the symbol to anyone’s preferences will surely find many fans.
Jewellery making supplies inspired by astronomy
What does a moon pendant mean?
The moon has intrigued people from the beginning of time. It appears in the sky every night, illuminating it with a soft glow and fascinating the inhabitants living around the world. For this reason, for centuries, it has been credited with mystical potential and magical powers that affect various aspects of life on earth. Its enormous power affects not only the oceans, but also the growth of plants and our well-being. In the past, it was associated mainly with protection, the fertility of the land, and fertility in general – as desire to have children and also creativity and artistic imagination.
The phases of the moon, which reflect the transformation of life, also play a significant role. To this day, the popular theory says that it is worth starting certain projects with the first phase of the moon – called new moon, in order to gradually move to the next stages and strive for success. It is believed that the moon phases are also related to the menstrual cycle, as a woman also strives for fullness, which is why it has become a symbol of femininity.
The second phase of the moon has created another popular symbol known as the lunula moon. In jewelry, it most often takes the form of a crescent moon, called lunula pendant. For some, its pattern is associated with the shape of a woman’s reproductive organs, and thus with fertility, which further strengthens her association with the symbol of femininity. Lunula pendant is most often used in the creation of necklaces, but it can also be used to make dangling earrings. Small crescent moon charms can be used as decorative items for bracelets and dangle charm rings. Jewelry with lunula is recommended for young people who want to strengthen their sense of femininity, sensuality and appeal. But crescent moon pendant necklace is also an excellent choice for elderly people who care about the success of their relationships, raise children, and who wish to fulfill their dreams and successively pursue their goals.
Today, the moon symbol in jewelry mainly refers to fulfillment in marriage, friendship, and family relationships. It will therefore be a great gift idea for a loved one, friend, mother or daughter. An example of jewelry kept in this convention is a moon pendant necklace. When creating this type of jewelry, just choose a silver pendant in the form of a silver tag, openwork or cast, match it with a silver chain of the selected weave and length, and connect them with a jump ring or pendant bail, creating a charming moon necklace.
The positive energy of jewelry with moon can also have an impact on women trying to conceive, as well as those in need of support in raising children. The moon amulet may turn out to be a perfect gift that adds strength and protects against stimuli that negatively affect the well-being in this demanding period of life. Young mothers often avoid jewelry, as it often becomes an additional ballast and increases the risk of pulling it by baby. In this case, a balanced proposal are delicate silver moon stud earrings, which subtly adhere to the lobes of the ears. This design eliminates the risk of catching and breaking the jewelry. For mothers raising older children, we recommend dangling moon earrings, which you can compose with the use of a selected earring making supplies in combination with charms.
What does the sun and moon necklace mean?
Both in art and jewelry, lunar symbols are eagerly used. However, for the sake of completeness, we also use solar symbols, which the example is the sun. There is a rich individual symbolism behind both motives, but these magical themes often also go together. Considering the different aspects of life, this duo represents a combination of opposites that are strongly intertwined to form wholeness.
- The sun is the day and the energy that awakens with it, which gives us the strength to act. The moon, on the other hand, is night, it provides rest and regeneration after all the hardships experienced during the day.
- The sun is the male element, the complement of the female – lunar element.
- Solar energy is represented by gold and lunar energy by silver.
This celestial symbolism suggests that both themes must coexist to create wholeness, harmony, and restore balance. That the day will be followed by night, and the night comes after day. That people would pair up and unite with souls.
Since the sun and moon symbol carries such a deep and impressive message, this duo will surely meet the expectations of customers who appreciate jewelry with a message. In our stock you will find silver jewellery findings from which you can create a collection for the neck, ears and hands. The popular sun and moon pendant with engraved intricate details is the perfect choice to create a sun and moon necklace. For this purpose, the pendant just needs to be connected with a necklace chain using silver jump rings. It is worth going a step further and complement the necklace with dangling earrings with the same motif, because these items will also be perfect as pendants for ear decorations. To make this style of products, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with the wide range of leverbacks or other sterling silver earring supplies to create a cosmic jewelry set. As an alternative to eye-catching earrings with pendants, we recommend minimalist sun and moon earrings in the form of delicate tags fitting closely to the earlobe.
What does the sun charm symbolize?
The sun, apart from being a complement to the moon, also hides a rich symbolism in itself. People have always felt humble before the sun. The brightest and hottest of all stars is the only natural source of light and heat, and therefore significantly affects life on our planet. Rising up – it disperses the darkness, awakens us to life, transmits energy, vital forces and rebirth, and with its rays it introduces warmth and joy into our lives. Going down – sets the time to rest. Due to such a great power, influencing our lives, the sun symbol is so eagerly used in jewelry. It symbolizes beginning, enlightenment, development, freedom, infinity, joy, positive energy and most of all – life. Its amazing power makes it worth using it to create a collection of products with a message.
In our stock, you will find a wide range of pendants with a loop, as well as connectors that can be joined to any types of necklace chains with jump rings or silver chains with clasps threaded through them. When creating sun jewelry, it is worth adding chic and elegance to it by pasting crystals or gems. For this purpose, pendant settings with cups will be perfect for you. Moreover, if you want to use a more creative type of material and epoxy resin is familiar to you, it is worth trying to fill the cups with this famous jewelry mass, which offers unlimited possibilities in jewellery making.
What do star pendants mean?
The stars are the astronomical objects that adorn the sky and come together in various configurations known as constellations. The sky lit by stars for centuries has fascinated people inhabiting every latitude of the globe. In some cultures, it is still believed that the stars visible in the sky on the day of birth will direct someone’s life and mark his fate until death. There is also a theory that our future and life history are written in the stars. According to astrology, each person has a star that appears on the day of birth and fade away after death. The beauty of the stars shining in the sky every night has been inspiring for centuries, which is visible in many creative fields, including jewelry making.
The star symbol looks amazing in necklaces, earrings, bracelets for wrists or ankles, rings, as well as jewellery made of chains entwining waist, which are very trendy in recent seasons. For fans of minimalist accessories, we recommend a simple star pendant necklace created on a subtle anchor chain with a star bead. The same star pendant can be used to decorate ear wires, creating a matching ornament for the ears. A set of jewellery with stars in a light style created in this way will perfectly suit any occasion, whether business, sports or casual, discreetly emphasizing the beauty of the owner.
If you are looking for a design that perfectly matches the current jewelry trends, we recommend a necklace with star pendants subtly resting on the neckline. This arrangement will be a wonderful allusion to the starry sky. For such a charming necklace, we offer delicate stud star earrings, which are ready-made jewellery that only requires the attachment of earring backs.
In addition to necklaces and earrings, it is also worth adding bracelets with stars to your collection. An interesting concept is the connector type star sign pendant, which can be joined to silver chains or string bracelets. Chain bracelets will be a universal proposition for women of all ages, while strings are often chosen as jewellery for children and teenagers. Let’s also not forget about the popular trend such as DIY charm bracelet, which can be decorated with star charms. You can also create these types of bracelets for ankle.
For more sophisticated solutions, we recommend a charm ring that can be easily combined with one or more pendants. The hit of the current seasons are also cascade necklaces that adorn not only the neckline, but also the waist. Taking into account the creativity of the jewelry makers, in some cases ready-made components may limit the possibilities, so it is worth trying silver chains in bulk. In our assortment you will find a wide range of weaves, thicknesses and styles, from which you can create one-of-a-kind decorations, according to your imagination.
Jewelry with a star is a perfect and universal gift idea. Its popularity grows in the winter and pre-Christmas time, as it is commonly chosen for Christmas gifts. Remarkable, however, is the meaning associated with it. The star symbol refers to happiness and fulfillment of dreams, so regardless of the occasion, it is worth dedicating it to successful people who believe that they can reach the stars in achieving their goals.
