The Dragon’s Eye is an ancient Germanic symbol as collected by Rudolf Koch. The Dragon’s Eye is an isosceles triangle pointing downward with a “Y” in the middle connecting the three points of the triangle together. According to Carl G. Liungman’s Dictionary of Symbols, it combines the triangle meaning threat and the “Y” meaning a choice between good and evil.

The Dragon’s eye is a well known symbol of protection, said to protect anyone who recited the incantation to it. The dragon is a universal motif linked to various cultures of humanity for 5,000 years. The word dragon comes from “derkesthai” (Greek: to glance dartingly) which, in a Hindu tradition, was the hungry look of the very first being when its fiery spirit was born out of the abyss of water. The Dragon’s Eye symbol stands for the balance of love, power and wisdom. Triple triangles are associated with the Goddess and the nine Muses. – Adapted from Wikipedia.

Aventurine is a variety of translucent quartz with abundant small plate- or flake-shaped inclusions of mica, ilmenite or hematite. These inclusions reflect light that enters the quartz and produce a sparkly appearance known as “aventurescence”. Aventurine is known to occur in range of greens, orange, brown and blue. Bright reflections blended with interesting color make aventurine a popular semiprecious gemstone.   – Adapted from Geology.com.
