The brooch is made from the medicinal herb sweetgrass, commonly known as « Mother Earth's hair ». The three strands of the braid symbolize the body, heart and mind. It is said that when the brooch is worn, you are connected or grounded with Mother Earth. The medicinal herbs protect you from negative influences. The four ribbons in red, white, yellow and black symbolize the four races that exist on Mother Earth: Native American, White, Oriental and Black. They also symbolize the four directions: north, south, east and west, the four winds, the four elements (water, fire, air and earth) and the four stages of human life. Show more
