The skull is a universal symbol of transformation and knowledge. Its golden color represents solar light, illumination, the immortality of the spirit, and the highest spiritual attainment. The union of the two creates a talisman of exceptional alchemical power.
In alchemy, the skull symbolizes primal matter, our ego and our fears, which must "die" symbolically to be purified. The golden light is the ultimate goal of this process: the state of awakening, the purified mind.
This ring thus represents the complete process of transmutation. It symbolizes the ability to transform one's own darkness (the skull) into light and wisdom (the golden color). It is a powerful reminder that the greatest strength and the greatest wealth lie in our ability to transform ourselves.
In many ancient traditions, the skull was also the seat of the soul and a gateway to the spirit world. A sun-colored skull was regarded as the ultimate talisman, a tool for communicating with the divine powers and attracting protection, symbolizing the triumph of the eternal spirit over physical death.

What is the meaning of the skull?

Ancient civilizations like the Egyptians and the Aztecs used the skull as a symbol of the cycle of death and rebirth.
- In the 15th century, people began to adorn themselves with anything that reminded them of their mortality — including skulls and skeletons — creating what is called 'memento mori.' Queen Victoria adopted this idea and launched the trend of commemorative jewelry, which, rather than marking the inevitability of death, commemorated the memory of a loved one who had passed away;
In a more recent era, skulls have been depicted with wings (symbolizing freedom in the sense of liberation from their physical form into a freer spiritual form).

Memento mori is a Latin phrase meaning 'Remember that you will die,' a formula from medieval Christianity. Expressing the vanity of earthly life, it refers to the 'art of dying,' or Ars moriendi. It implies an ethic of detachment.

Its origin dates back to Greco-Roman antiquity. During the time of Imperial Rome, when an emperor or a general returned to Rome after a successful campaign (military or political), he would travel through the streets on a chariot surrounded by a crowd, who greeted him with applause and honors. Behind him, on the chariot, a man would constantly whisper: 'Memento Mori'.
It was actually a piece of advice, a rule of life: to remind the hero that his life was exactly like that of every human, and to continue and sustain his triumphs, he must remain humble and honest.
