Shinto (Torii gate) ring silver
Symbol of the gate to the holy where the key is the wearer
The ring is made in the shape of the Torii gate that appears at the
entrances of Shinto shrines
and other holy places in Japan. The gate symbolizes the entrance to the
holy space where there are good spirits and forces of nature. Torii is
said to come from an old Japanese legend, when the sun goddess became
extremely annoyed with her prankster brother. She hid herself in a cave
and sealed the entrance with a rock, causing an eclipse. The people
were afraid that if the sun never returned, they would all die. So, per
the advice of a token wise old man, they built a large bird perch out
of wood and placed all the town's roosters on this perch. They all
started to crow noisily, causing the curious sun goddess to peek out of
her cave. Having opened a crack in the door, a large sumo wrestler from
the town ran up and pushed the rock away, letting the sun out and thus
- the world was saved. That bird perch was the first Torii gate. From
then on, the Torii became a symbol of prosperity and good fortune, and
spread all over Japan. The space is full
of mystery, because the space is divided by time. Search within
yourself for the key to time-space and open the gate ”. The
Ring symbolizes the entrance to higher and hidden spaces to which the
key is the person himself.Hayao Miyazaki .The ring
is made to give the wearer the understanding that the key for creation
and sanctity is within him.
