Symbolism:
A wave dzi bead usually has 1, 2 or 3 wavy lines, separated by straight lines. The wave pattern represents flowing water. According to the teachings of Feng Shui, flowing water is associated with two different (yet ultimately connected) meanings:
On the one hand, the powerful energy of flowing water symbolizes an inexhaustable source of wealth and prosperity. With its flexibility and adjustability it's able to overcome all obstacles and thus ensure a constant stream even in the most difficult situations.
On the other hand, water is associated with a healthy flow of emotions. Emotions that are suppressed, denied or ignored, can become stuck deep within, accumulating more and more to an unhealthy and even toxic inner state, boiling up at times to outbursts of mental or physical problems. The wave dzi bead supports in unlocking these stuck emotions and releasing them in a healthy way, thus transforming them into vital energy.
