~ ABOUT AMBER ~ |
|
AMBROSIA? ELECTRUM? Amber (from the Greek Ambrosia) is a fossilized resin or sap that comes from trees dating back 50 million years. Also called 'electrum' as Amber produces a static electricity when rubbed. The softness of this organic gem allows it to be re-formed into various shapes for bead making. Like time capsules, bugs, organic matter and tiny animals are often frozen inside. + AMBER FAVORED - BURNT BY MOSES Rosaries and prayer beads made of amber have been favored for centuries. They have been used by people of all religions throughout the world as prayer counters. Amber was a treasure carried along the trade routes and highly prized for having healing powers. It was ground and put into an oil which was consumed for various ailments. In scripture we read that Moses burned amber during the ritual of the Tabernacle for the purpose of purifying the sacred ground.

... noticed gems floating in the surf ... In the year 1204, the fourth crusade ended and the armed knights returned to Europe. Among these were the Teutonic Knights who upon their return, were requested to patrol the Gulf of Dazig in the Baltic Sea from marauding Raiders. (In 1206, Tradition shares that Our Lady Appeared to St Dominic, presenting him with a rosary. He was instructed to spread its devotion through its use.) While on patrol at the Gulf, the Knights noticed gems floating in the surf. It was amber. Operating from Marbrow Castle, the Knights claimed all the amber for rosaries which were sold throughout Europe for over 200 years. The Romas called Amber, The Gold of the North. from Bob Parker (MI) |
