In what is now Tibet, India, Nepal, and several other spots throughout Central Asia, Dzi beats made an appearance. When it comes to a purpose, some think they are ornamental; others feel they have religious significance. There is even a potential connection to medicinal uses.
From a spiritual standpoint, the Tibetan Dzi beads mean good fortune. They believed that nature constructed them.
Some people also think Tibet Dzi beads can do more; they attract wisdom and prosperity, though some connect the beads to love, happiness, and protection. Often, the number of “eyes” on the stone gives the bead a new potential meaning, with five being highly sought after because it’s considered magical.
HOW TO WEAR IT?
Most prefer strand necklaces or bracelets, as those are particularly well-suited to beads. In some cases, a piece may solely feature Dzi beads. However, it’s more common to see a single, prominent Dzi bead, with the rest of the necklace or bracelet featuring other types of stone beads, metal rondels, and similar additions.
Many people also incorporate Dzi beads in Malas. Those longer strands of beads – often worn as necklaces or bracelets - help a person keep count during meditation. Traditionally, the total bead count is 108. However, some may feature less. For example, a Mala may contain 54 beads. As long the count ends at 108, the amount is not relevant.
Dzi beads can be used in less traditional pieces, too. For instance, adding them to drop earrings can be an excellent option. However, necklaces may be your best choice if you’d like a more classic approach.
