With those who design jewelry inspired by the Kabbalah, there is a bit more than just how the piece looks, or what style it is made into, that must be considered. There is a great deal of symbolism going into each piece, therefore the designer needs to not only know about the Kabbalistic influence, but must understand the significance behind the meaning of each symbol in order to translate meaning into the jewelry. It begins then with learning what the Kabbalah teaches so that any designs implemented into the jewelry can properly pay respect to the sacred meaning behind the designs. An often used method to enhance the powers of protection in a Kabbalah necklace creation is to bring together a few elements. Two often used symbols that help convert negative into positive energies are the Star of David and the Hamsa hand. Two methods of incorporating these symbols are to include them as part of an overall design scheme for the piece, or to make the piece the symbol itself.
The wisdom of Kabbalah pays close mind to any popular symbols of the Jewish faith that recognizes how destructive the evil eye can be in a person's life. There are especially pieces of Kabbalah jewelry that incorporates exclusively Kabbalistic symbos that are not widely known among the mainstream. For instance, the Hamsa necklace will have within its design one of the seventy-two names of God, in the Hebrew sequence Aleph-Lamed-Dalet, because it has been known to chase away powerful negative influences.
When infusing the keys of spirituality into a piece of kabbalah jewelry, the designer can lift a regular Kabbalah necklace to another level entirely, one that gives specific energies to the person who wears it. Based upon Kabbalah traditions and beliefts, these specific energies act as a go between, or an intermediary, between our world of material existence and the higher world of spiritual nature. This intercession aids in keeping our lives positive. Jewelry that has been injected with energies from the Kabbalah faith give the person wearing it the chance to carry these energies no matter where they are going or what they are doing throughout every day of their life.
Silver and gold are the most common ore that goes into the crafting of the Kabbalah Necklace, however oftentimes mixing metals can give it the power the designer intends for the piece being created. For example, there is a Kabbalist formula that uses five metals that when blended together at a particular time in a month can create a very powerful catalyst to bring significant positive changes into the wearer's life.
Specifically-shaped Kabbalah necklaces can also be created which are not like any structures outside of Kabbalah influence. An example would be the Merkabah, which according to Kabbalistic faith releases strong energies that are held within this sacred shape.
Kabbalist codes in Hebrew are common in Kabbalah necklace designs. Often these necklaces are created with one of the seventy-two names of God. Another common design is to include blessing initials, along with various prayers like the Ana Bekoach or priestly blessings. These codes come down through the centuries, refined by Kabbalists who intend for the codes to bring out such energies that envelop the wearers with protection from the divine and always come with numerous positive traits for the necklace's owner.
Stones also carry various degrees of energy. Two common examples are the Cat's Eye and turquoise. Hoshen stones give the name to the necklace that embeds them within its design. These are the same stones that the high priests known as the Kohens have been known to wear while performing their duties in their sacred temples.
Finally, Kabbalah necklaces are designed and created with a particular meaning or story. Before deciding upon a piece of Kabbalah jewelry, you should take the time to research the story behind the symbolic nature of the design of the piece you are interested in, to be certain that it a creation that fits what your own needs or wants encompass
