Waist beads have been worn as a celebration of womanhood, sexuality, femininity, fertility, healing, spirituality, body shaping, protection and wealth.
Adorning the sacred womb/waist of the *Divine Feminine Goddess* is like welcoming the overflowing fertility of mother earth which is infinitely abundant, into your sacred existence. Tribal indigenous woman are known to have once laced beads with charms, earth stones and essential fragrances that would be considered irresistible to the opposite sex. This practice is now less popular, however wearing beads for the seduction of men is still one of the primary reasons some women wear them.
All waist beads found in this sacred space www.27daystoflawless.com are imported from Ghana in limited quantities, energetically charged with love specifically for you.
Ghana and other parts of the world has a rich tradition of wearing waist beads. It is common for women in Ghana to wear waist beads as ornaments, as well as for symbolic adornment, which serves as a sign of wealth, femininity, aristocracy and spiritual well-being.
During Ghanaian naming ceremonies, babies are typically adorned with waist beads while young adults also wear beads around their waists and on their hips during puberty rites as a portrayal of femininity. These beads are believed to possess the power to attract as well as evoke deep emotional responses while providing the wearer of the beads with the fertile energy of the sacred mother earth to birth ideas, aspirations and new experiences. As part of tradition, a successful suitor would commission a set of beads including bracelets, anklets, necklaces, cuffs and waist beads for his bride. This was part of her dowry and the foundation of her personal wealth. Women in Ghana would wear multiple strands of beads around their waist, with some cultures providing that the only person allowed to remove them was her husband on their wedding night.
It is believed that the practice of wearing multiple waist beads over time will help to keep the waist small and accentuate the hips. Since traditional waist beads are strung on cotton cord they can be a good tool to measure weight gain and loss. They will not stretch, they will either break or continue to travel up the waist when weight has been gained. Similarly, they will travel down or eventually become so loose they will fall off when weight has been lost. This has worked for me over time while completing a series of fasting cycles on 27 Days To Flawless with sacred beads that started at the very top of my waist, the same beads are now falling low below my waist landing on my hips after loosing over 40 lbs this year alone. This has me officially "Feeling My Self".
