This was a breakthrough for me. Being someone who has known absolutely nothing about her past, family or cultural history. I have always felt displaced. Without anchor. And getting back to my tribal and cultural roots is very VERY important to me.
Anyway, as you read previously (and if you haven't please have a look as it is the precursor to this blog post! go on get!) you will see that there are already a few interesting turns of events regarding my StarViking Journey of discovery.
But onto this story! We decided to find me a newer wedding band, one that suited my style and purpose. I needed one that was thicker and stronger so that if I forgot to take it off while working with metal, or drumming, it wouldn't break like previous rings!
We only had a budget of $100 - 150. And after looking through two jewelery stores I was starting to realise that I was only able to get really thin and pretty bands, nothing VIKING enough for me!
We stopped at one last shop, one that has since closed! And asked for any silver rings. I looked at about 6 and didn't see anything that worked. My youngest daughter Kels reached up over the counter and without looking, she tapped a ring and said "this is the one" - and ran off! I looked at my husband and then picked up the ring and ... gasped.
If you look below at the photographs you will see why!
The large S and smaller S curling out of it, for Savanna and I. With the smaller B within a D shape (D/B) up to the right, for Doherty-Bigara! |
Bottom left is a lower case cursive F and above it on the left is a capital K all curly, the top of the F is the bottom of the K. |
Also, please note the StarViking S on my gown, pinned last month... And that special ring that found me... same S... |
I don't know about you... but that's pretty damn incredible! I bought it immediately!
I will share another really strange StarViking occurrence that just happened last night HERE.
