Horoscope Jewellery That Even Non-Believers Would Love

Humans are always searching for something that inspires personal connection with a greater power. Cavemen for example often mark moon phases believing that each one symbolises a grander purpose for them to follow in their daily lives. Also, in global ancient civilisations dating back to 3000 BC, astrology was introduced and used as guidance in the fields of science and medicine.

But whether you believe in any of it or not, it is apparent that in present-day, astrology and its symbols — the horoscopes, are definitely back in vogue. In addition to its influence over us spiritually, aiding us in making sense of our unpredictable circumstances, it has also slowly but surely infiltrated our wardrobes and jewellery boxes.

Peaking in its popularity back in the 1930s and 1970s — problematic eras now associated with great calamities globally — it doesn’t take too much to pinpoint reasons for the resurgence of horoscope jewellery today. One of the biggest reasons why the trend is so easily assimilated amongst believers and those otherwise, is its ability to create a personal intimate connection between the accessory and its wearer — that beautiful abstract quality in dressing up that says a lot about you and nothing at all at the same time.

Looking introspectively, jewellery pieces designed with horoscopes also makes you feel unique, special, and recognised, in a world where many of us consider ourselves to be individuals and yet simply looking to feel understood when we want to be. Most importantly, these jewellery pieces are often rendered as pendant necklaces with delicate chains, that are perfect for layering over other pieces to curate a style that only belongs to you.

Horoscope believers may take a step ahead, reading further on their birthstones for answers that may (not scientifically proven whatsoever) provide strength and protection. Thankfully, many jewellery designers have likewise incorporated them to pieces featuring the respective horoscope signs, relieving us of doing the homework to find out what ours are.

Of this, London-based jewellery designer Rosh Mahtani has this to say on horoscopes and her reason for featuring them in her recent collection, “The whole world is going through the (tough) fight right now, and I think there is hope in reading the stars and thinking about how everything is connected. It grounds us, and we need to be grounded now more than ever.”
