Sterling Silver Cicada Ring

Lovely and delicate genuine sterling silver ring featuring a detailed cicada.

Cicadas represent reseurrection and have been used in magic in many cultures.

Cicadas are a Feng Shui symbol of immortality and protection against backstabbers.

For the ancient Greeks and Romans the cicada sang in intoxicated ecstasy and were sacred to Apollo and cognate with the dionysiac bacchae and maenad. Socrates proposed that Cicadas were originally humans who, in ancient times, allowed the first Muses to enchant them into singing and dancing so long that they stopped eating and sleeping and actually died without noticing it. The Muses rewarded them with the gift of never needing food or sleep, but to sing from birth to death. The task of the Cicadas is to watch humans to report who honors the Muses and who does not.

This listing is for ONE Silver Cicada Ring, available in sizes 5-9.
