So, why for our new cardigans and what do they symbolize?

Circles play a crucial role in Tibetan culture. They are present both in traditional rituals and on outside walls of almost all Tibetan Buddhist temples and monasteries.

In Tibetan culture the circle symbolizes first of all “the wheel of life” or “the cyclic existence” (widely known as samsāra).
Swipe right to see a photo of “bhavāchakra”( “the wheel of life”) that can be found on Tibetan temples (unknown author).

In Sanskrit sources the circle can be found also as a symbol of endless rotation of cosmic energy.

In Tibetan rituals people form different types of circles to perform ceremonial, mostly religious acts (rites).

Besides, Tibetan monks for many centuries have created and continue to create ritually efficacious magic circles, mandalas, using a technique known as sandpainting (even if they use also other materials).

Know the stories and meanings behind your !!! Choose not just the garment but also its story 🥰

1. Celtic knot designs were used as early as the third century A.D and can be seen on Roman floor mosaics (swipe to see the photo). Further examples of Celtic knots can be seen in Ethiopian art, Russian book illumination in the Medieval era and Islamic art. Celts drew these particular symbols because realistic depictions of living creatures were forbidden.
2. The Celts were great poets- the “bardoi” were the singing poets of the Celts. They were highly respected and composed haunting songs of praise and satire. They could stop battles by stepping between armies and were paid well in gold for their services.
3. Ancient Celtic languages such as Pictish, Lusitanian, Celtiberian and Lepontic are no longer spoken today. Remote corners of Ireland, Wales, and France still contain populations which speak some Celtic languages including Gaelic languages. (Swipe to see the map)
4. The Proto-Celtic Hallstatt Culture was among the first groups of people to create swords made of iron.
5. In Celtic Law women could rule, they could participate in politics, religion and the arts, and had control of who they married and the right to divorce under certain circumstances like ill-treatment or when the husband was becoming fatty and weak.
6. Since the Celts considered the head to be the source of life and the location of a person’s soul, warriors saw great value in beheading their defeated enemies. Severed heads were a motif in Celtic art and Celtic mythology.
7. Asterix is one of the most popular Celtic figures in the history of pop culture. Asterix is a native Gaul whose village is the last part of Gaul that hasn’t been conquered by the Romans 😉
