The Compass Rose, sometimes called a rose of the winds, is a beautiful and timeless symbol of direction, discovery, and awakening. The four directions of the Compass Rose represent infinite possibilities, the past, the present, and the future. This symbol was once believed by sailors to bring them good luck and to bring them back home safely. It is a celebrated symbol of guidance through troubled seas and unfamiliar places.
Opal is one of the birthstones for October. It is also the stone given to celebrate the 14th year of marriage. The name "opal" comes from the Sanskrit word upala, which means precious stone. In Indian mythology, the Goddess of the Rainbow was turned into an opal because she was being chased by suitors. It is said that the "fire" in an opal can spark creativity. European cultures have long seen the opal as a symbol of hope and truth.
