Khamsa - Polymer chakra clay pendant

"Khamsa" means "five fingers of the hand" in Arabic.

I made this pendant with polymer clay. I hand painted it and added stones in the colors of the Chakra. Amethyst, Lapis, Amanozite, Peridot, Citrine, Carnelian, and Garnet. Each stone represents a part of the Chakra. Plus I have added a beautiful Amethyst crystal point into the tip of the middle finger:

Violet = Crown - Personal identification with Infinite. Oneness with God. Peace. Wisdom

Indigo = Third Eye - Clearing subconscious to channel intuition. Balanced state of mind. See divine perfection in all things. Devotion.

Blue = Throat - Ability to verbalize. Expressing truth through power of the spoken word.

Green = Heart - Release emotionally suppressed trauma. Soul/Heart consciousness. Expressing love in action.

Yellow - Solar Plexus - Assimilation experience. Digestion. Positive use of personal power. Manifest goals.

Orange = Sacral - Utilization of creative forces into all aspects of being. High soul procreation. Direct self toward devotion.

Red = Base - Ground spirit forces in body. Gain ability to work lovingly on the physical plane.


The Hamsa amulet is popular throughout North Africa, and commonly used in jewelry and wall hangings. The Hand (Khamsa), particularly the open right hand, is a sign of protection that also represents blessings, power, and strength, and is seen as potent in deflecting the evil eye.
It is also known as the hand of Fatima, so named to commemorate Muhammad's daughter Fatima Zahra. Christians call it the hand of Mary, for the mother of Jesus. Following its incorporation into Jewish tradition via its widespread use in the Islamic world, it was also renamed the hand of Miriam for Miriam, sister of Moses.
