The Goddess 🔱

A Mandala Jewelry Collection Inspired by the Shri Yantra

The Goddess is a ceremonial jewelry collection that brings together sacred geometry, spiritual symbolism, and contemporary fabrication to create a powerful expression of the divine feminine. Rooted in the cosmic blueprint of the Shri Yantra, this piece is both adornment and invocation — a wearable mandala that centers energy, presence, and personal ritual.

Concept & Symbolism 🌙

The collection is inspired by the Shri Yantra, an ancient visual diagram composed of nine interlocking triangles that represent the union of Shiva and Shakti — the masculine and feminine principles of the cosmos. The yantra is not merely decorative; it is considered a powerful spiritual symbol that channels energy, supports meditation, and represents the microcosm and macrocosm as one.

The Goddess transforms this sacred symbol into an ornamental artefact worn on the body — a personal shrine that allows the wearer to embody the symmetry, strength, and serenity of the mandala. It is a celebration of feminine energy in all her forms: fierce, nurturing, cyclical, radiant, and divine.

Visual Composition ✨ The collection features a constellation of sacred elements, each worn like a ritual piece:

1. The Crescent Neckpiece A bold, fan-like crescent rests at the collarbone, designed with temple-like floral geometry that radiates openness and reverence. It symbolizes the dawn — the first light of awareness.

2. The Shri Yantra Medallion

The centerpiece of the collection is a large circular medallion featuring the laser-etched Shri Yantra. It is layered over embroidered felt and embedded with a crystalline center — the bindu, the origin point of creation. It radiates harmony, power, and spiritual awakening.

3. The Lower Mandala Disc

Positioned along the lower torso, this disc is an energetic burst of symmetry. The etched lines extend like cosmic rays, anchored by a golden crescent moon mirror in the center. This moon symbolizes the intuitive, cyclical nature of the goddess and acts as a reflective portal for inner awareness and transformation.

4. The Earrings

Circular and commanding, the earrings mirror the lower mandala disc. Black and gold acrylic create a celestial contrast, with a central crescent moon in gold mirror acrylic nestled in a radiant burst of symmetrical lines. Beaded detailing forms a halo around the edge, echoing both cosmic rhythm and divine protection. These earrings act as ear chakras — tuning the wearer to sacred sound, frequency, and intuition.

Philosophy & Presence 💫

The Goddess is more than jewelry — it is a ritual object, a visual prayer, and a celebration of embodied power. It honors the cyclical, intuitive, and luminous nature of women — not just as muses or makers, but as moving mandalas of their own.

Every piece is a fusion of tradition and futurism, symbol and self, matter and myth. Worn together, the collection becomes a living yantra, aligning the body with sacred geometry and the soul with cosmic rhythm.
