Product Description - Earth Solutions Hamsa with Turquoise Cabochon Pendant

Hoxsey Red Clover Burdock Plus Blood Cleansing Herbal Formula
The Hamsa or Khamsa?, meaning five, is used in amulets, charms and jewelry to protect against the "evil eye." It is widely used in the Arab World, and is commonly associated with both Muslim and Jewish culture in the region. Nevertheless, the symbol predates the rise of monotheistic religions, having been widely used in antiquity. An alternative Muslim name for the Hamsa is the Hand of Fatima, in reference to Fatima Zahra, the daughter of the Prophet Muhammad. Jewish communities sometimes use the name Hand of Miriam, in reference to Miriam, the sister of the Prophets Moses and Aaron. Nevertheless, the Arabic name Khamsa is more commonly used in the region. One explanation for the symbol is that it is designed to ward off the evil eye - five fingers in the eye to blind the jealous or malevolent person. Some associate the significance of the five fingers to the five books of the Torah for Jews, the Five Pillars of Islam for Sunnis, or the five People of the Cloak for Shi'ites. This symbolism may have evolved at a later stage, in view of the fact that archaeological evidence suggests the hamsa predates both religions. It is thought by some to have originated with the Phoenicians to honor Tanit who was a patron of Carthage. In recent years some Jewish activists for Middle East peace have chosen to wear the Hamsa as a symbol of the shared traditions between the Islamic and Jewish faiths. The fingers can point up or down.

Earth Solutions

Earth Solutions founder Dr David Epstein, D.O., a practicing holistic osteopathic physician, began with environmental product, distributing a natural oxygenating solution for soil conditioning. Influenced by his interest in natural remedies, the nutrient rich oxygenating solution was formulated into DermAlive, the predecessor to Cell Food which was developed after the supplier sold the company.

The ScentBall and CarScenter aromatherapy diffusers were developed by Earth Solutions in collaboration with Hubmar in 1995 and 1997. Earth Solutions were the pioneers that offered a natural plant-derived aroma alternative to an industry of artificial fragrances. On the heels of that and with the creative genius of folk artist Eric Legge, Earth Solutions took on a new look. The collection of five Scent Inhalers grew to twenty and became a best, all-time and ongoing product. The convenience and concept of affirmations associated with scents in a pocket-sized inhaler was a hit.

Earth Solutions launched the Jeffrey David 1999 when Jeff Boast brought his talent in computer aided jewelry design to help create a unique line of aromatherapy jewelry. Since then, the line expanded to over 500 jewelry designs. Collections range from aromatherapy to music, flower of life, new age, sports and many custom designs in pendants, earrings and charms.

With a passion for aquaponics and help from friend Dav Frayne, Dr. Dave designed the Farm in a Box. This first-commercially-available aquarium aquaponic garden mounts onto a standard glass fish tank became a media sensation. Articles appeared in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times and featured the Farm in a Box on Good Morning America for the 4th of July garden special in 2010.
