Jewellery for prosperity
On one of our Group websites you will find a blog post detailing how the lucky Indalo charm of southern Spain could perhaps help someone who is a bit short of money and struggling financially. Read more here about how and why this Indalo Próspero jewellery can be gifted to wish prosperity, wealth and success, and hopefully help people cope with their financial difficulties.
The Indalo Man figurine or symbol has for many years acted as a protection talisman - both physically, mentally and financially.
It’s history can be traced back to drawings in some of the caves of Neolithic man in Spain (around 4,000 years ago) although its progress into the limelight of modern culture is far more recent.
The walls of these cave had been painted with representations of goats, deer and birds, as well as basic sketches of men/women in various poses, alongside other shapes: Some of of these ‘shapes’ were in the form of the Indalo (a man with outstretched arms believed to be holding a rainbow above his head).
Subsequently, this Indalo symbol was daubed on the walls of many local properties in this Levante region of Spain as some sort of lucky symbol; and indeed, as time passed, it was thought to have been instrumental in protecting the local population from various misfortunes that befell other nearby areas, such as harm from the succeeding floods and earthquakes. When the local populace looked at how they had fared against their neighbours, it appeared as if they had somehow been “protected” by this symbol from the cave (‘cueva’ in Spanish) - or so they thought.
The “Cueva de los Letreros” in Almería is now a UNESCO World Heritage site and the Indalo has become famous throughout the province of Almería (and beyond) where to this day, it is strongly believed that the “Indalo Man” can offer protection and bring good fortune wherever it is situated. Travelling around, you will see it everywhere. It is an integral part of the way of life of this region of Spain: Even today, in the small village pueblos that lie hidden behind the giant sierras that roll down to the Mediterranean Sea, the Indalo is known for its good luck properties and as a symbol of prosperity and good fortune.
This Indalo Man is now ingrained in the local society and culture as a symbol of prosperity, good fortune and success and the Indalo Prospero jewellery in our shop, representing wealth, abundance and success, is a reflection of this belief and is intended to encourage people who would like to increase their good fortune.
Many people now wear this Indalo jewellery (or attach the Indalo Man symbol to their house) to help protect them from adversity - whether that be from actual physical harm caused by an accident, earthquake, flood, etc, or through illness, injury or bad health . . but also to protect them against financial hardship and other difficulties or business woes.
As a gift, a piece of Indalo Próspero jewellery makes a present with real meaning to those suffering financial hardship or when times are hard. Consequently, people are able to wish someone prosperity, wealth and success by sending them a good luck gift based on this Indalo Próspero talisman.
