New design! The New Mexico Zia on 13 mesh. 4 inch diameter. Available in my shop: jenyarose.bigcartel.com
This is an ancient symbol of the Zia tribe, whose pueblo is still active here in New Mexico. They call it the sun symbol, but most other people call it the Zia, the Zia Sun, (or the New Mexico flag. Lol.) It has 4 groups of 4 rays. Each group of rays represents something different:
The four directions (north, south, east, west)
The four seasons of the year (spring, summer, fall, winter)
The four periods of the day (morning, noon, evening, night)
And the four steps of life (childhood, youth, adulthood, old age)
The circle at the center ties them together to represent love and life.
