Summer Heron Pendant

The natural fissures in this stone suggest a horizon line with slanted light pouring across the surface of water. The image of the Heron wading in a pool in the reverse side is based on these markings. A setting summer sun graces the upper lefthand corner, shining down on the protected reed pond where the Heron is fishing. This locale curves all the way around the stone setting, with cattails and reeds growing along each side and curving around to the front. A dragonfly graces one side of the stone setting, hovering above the cat tails.  Dragonflies are symbols of transformation, and draw on all the elements, Earth, Air, Fire and Water for their complex life cycle. The energy of these elements can combine with the larger theme of Heron to bring you addition insight. Herons are a symbol of quiet determination. Their dedication to silent observation and careful positioning allows them to make use of the best opportunities in their world. Their graceful lines make seem peaceful and serene
