Description from the seller

Cerberus Bicephalous Ring in Tanzanite: Mythological Power & Absolute Vigilance.
The guardian with two faces who watches over your past and protects your future.

In ancient legends, the multi-headed guardian embodies perfect vigilance. Nothing escapes it. This ring captures that essence of an eternal sentinel.
The two opposite heads form a circle of absolute vigilance, covering all angles so that no threat can surprise you. It acts as an impenetrable barrier.
It establishes an aura of immediate respect. It repels treacherous energies, strengthens your position, and affirms your sovereignty over your own realm. Wearing this seal is walking with the confidence of being protected by a primordial force.

External width: 2.23cm.
Total length: 2.65 cm.
Stamped silver 925. 7.66g.

This artefact draws its strength from the founding myths of protection and passage.

The Guardian of the Threshold (Cerberus & Orthrus)
In Greek mythology, Cerberus guards the Underworld, while his brother Orthrus (often depicted with two heads) guards the sacred herds. They are the archetypes of the inviolable boundary. They symbolize the ability to distinguish friend from foe and to prevent access to undesirable forces. It is the talisman of those who guard a treasure, whether material or spiritual.

The Duality of the Gaze (Janus)
The dual-headed aspect also evokes Janus, the god of doors and beginnings. One head looks towards the past to learn lessons, the other towards the future to anticipate. It is a symbol of mastery over time and complete wisdom.

The Apotropaic Power
In antiquity, wearing the likeness of a fierce beast served as an apotropaic protection: the ferocity of the animal frightened away evil spirits and diverted the evil eye.

The Alliance of Magic and Fire
The eyes are set with Tanzanite. This rare violet gemstone symbolizes higher intuition and magic. It grants the beast a 'second sight' to perceive the invisible.
The body is adorned with Garnets. These fire stones embody muscular strength, courage, and fighting energy.
The alliance of the two creates a guardian who is both magical and physical.
