Silver Aztec Calendar Earrings Sterling

Silver is a metal associated with love, peace and protection and psychism. Silver is often used for scrying or psychic dreams. Many cultures throughout history have used silver for protection during travels. Silver relating to the moon, can help those who are too aggressive to bring peace into their awareness. Silver also helps one to get in touch with their own emotions and intuition, by allowing the acknowledgment of one's inner voice instead of repressing it. Silver has also been used to attract wealth and knowledge. The Aztec sun stone, also called the calendar stone, is on display at the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. The calendar consists of a 365-day calendar cycle called xiuhpōhualli (year count) and a 260-day ritual cycle called tōnalpōhualli (day count). These two cycles together form a 52-year "century", sometimes called the "calendar round". The xiuhpōhualli is considered to be the agricultural calendar, since it is based on the sun, and the tōnalpōhualli is considered to be the sacred calendar. These beautiful Aztec calendar earrings would make a great addition to any collection. These earrings are in excellent used condition. Stamped "MEXICO", "TS-22" and "925". Metal: Sterling Silver, 925
