Mysterious turtles

Someone says turtles are just slow, but I absolutely agree these creatures are great Zen Buddhists. In ancient times they were the symbols of something sacramental, mysterious. They were also a symbol of earth: the top of a carapace symbolized the sky, the other part of a carapace – the ground and a turtle itself symbolized all the creatures on earth. In Ancient China people believed that the Earth is situated on the enormous turtle Ao. Besides, turtles were sacred animals in China. Turtles are really but their lives are quite long. So maybe we should be taught something by them. Why am I talking about them? I do love this pendant.

And the print of this dress reminds me of turtle carapace. 

And what about you? What symbol do you love and why? Or maybe you have favorite pendants which is almost always close your heart. Feel free to shar your feelings.
