Pray for the Planet
And so two
fascinations come together: prayer beads and Final Fantasy 7.
...No, I didn't think the connection existed before now, either.
It was all because of these beads, discounted in the bargain bin and
totally unwanted. I can't find them anywhere else, and there's
probably a reason for it--it looks like someone swirled bright green
paint into white cats eye beads, so there's a distinct glow to
them. Otherwise known as (to me and me alone) Lifestream
beads! Hey, why not. The "symbol" is Aerith's flowers with
a ribbon around them. The rest just fell into place taking
the general concept of a Catholic rosary and the background concept of
the Sephirot.
And in case you're interested in the
symbolism... Three groups of ten beads represent the three
pillars/columns/"the three lines", and the ten steps/branches of the
Sephirot. The white materia is just that--but the drop from it
represents the "11th step/branch" which represents the abyss (but it's
kind of blasphemous, ha ha, but then so am I). It must be
acknowledged even by the protectors of the Planet, you
understand. (Obviously I am not affiliated with any religion.)
