Pearls, known for their beauty, are associated with the Moon. The best pearls are said to have a shiny moonlike quality, with perfect roundness and a luster that is reminiscent of a moonlit night. They are also powerful healers. They are known to be good for the nerves and the adrenal glands, the spleen, the muscular system, as well as the digestive process. They are also used to reduce fevers and aid with headaches and to strengthen the eyes. Pearls are traditionally representative of innocence and purity, wisdom, strength, faith and integrity and are considered a perfect wedding accessory for a bride. They are the traditional gift for a 3rd and 30th wedding anniversary.
The greatest attribute of the pearl is said to be fertility, which coincides with the oyster being known as an aphrodisiac. It takes many years for the pearl oyster to make just one pearl of reasonable size and this takes patience, delicacy and care, which is said to represent the time, patience and care that it takes to raise a child, from a tiny baby into adulthood.
When choosing your pearl it is important to make sure the pearl is perfect, as it is said, to wear a pearl that is not perfect will bring misfortune and bad luck, resulting in anything from ill health to loss of finance however if your pearl is perfect with a beautiful luster and smooth round appearance it will bring you good fortune and abundance and everything from good health to fame and fortune.
