The Symbolism of Red Jewellery

With this week being the celebration of Valentines we are taking a look at the symbolism of red jewellery.

From the deep hues of red, certain colours give you spiritual enlightenment, others bring happiness and romance to your life. The symbolic meaning of colours in jewellery inspires and illuminates positive energy.

Red is linked with passion, power, courage, confidence and warmth. For example yellow is for happiness, hope and spontaneity, Green for nature, growth, and harmony, and Blue for calmness and wisdom.

Lakshmi is the auspicious goddess of wealth and fortune, whether it is material or spiritual. Goddess Lakshmi suggests the aim of life, which includes all worldly and spiritual success.

Because of the ruby's deep red, early cultures treasured the gem, believing that it held the power of life due to its colour association with blood. Ruby is said to encourage joy, spontaneity, laughter and courage.

Colours were so powerful in traditional cultures that red objects were believed to convey health through their colour alone. For example, most red stones such as garnets and rubies were believed to have health-giving, with cultures in somewhere like Rome where people would wear red talismans for protection.

Red quartz is very good for grounding and the base chakra. The colour red is used professionally to capture attention, elicit emotion, and convey confidence, which is what makes it great when wearing a statement piece of Red crystal jewellery.
