September 6 is what a lunar day. How the Moon influences the planning of new affairs on Thursday

The New Year comes to Russian homes with the smell of pine needles, kilograms of bright tinsel, cheerfully winking garlands and, of course, a beautiful Christmas tree. This is exactly the kind of holiday we understand, love and look forward to. And what attributes of festive decor accompany the New Year in different parts of the Earth? I propose to gallop across Europe and find out how representatives of other countries decorate their homes.

Sweden

In preparation for the New Year, Swedes decorate literally everything: walls, doors, window sills, windows. They carefully place light garlands on the windows, giving them the shape of animals, houses, toys... About four weeks before the holiday, they place special candles or electric lamps on the windowsills. Every Sunday, one candle is lit - milestones in anticipation of the holiday. True, recently traditional candles are increasingly being replaced with energy-saving lamps, because the Swedes are very sensitive to environmental issues and savings.

England

In Great Britain, the Christmas tree is always decorated for the New Year. And the British decorate their houses with bouquets of mistletoe - since ancient times people believed in magical power this plant. The fireplace is decorated with large painted felt socks (Christmas Stocking) - one per child - where Santa Claus puts gifts.

The festive decor of the inhabitants of Foggy Albion is dominated by red - the color of the heart, the main organ of our body, blood and life. A variety of heart-shaped figures decorate the Christmas tree.

During the holidays, the house can completely change curtains, sofa cushions, kitchen napkins and tablecloths to red ones.

Germany

For the New Year in Germany, houses are decorated with colorful garlands, pine wreaths and Santa Claus figurines. Four weeks before Christmas, German homes display an Advent wreath consisting of mistletoe, with four candles that correspond to each Sunday of the coming Christmas. They often make various Christmas decorations themselves and paint the windows with festive scenes.

Green and red colors predominate in German New Year's decor.

USA

Americans begin preparing for the New Year almost a month earlier than us. It happens that the Christmas tree appears in the house at the end of November. In America, it is customary to place a spruce tree in the corner of the room, but so that it is visible to all guests and family members. Most often, plain Christmas tree balls are used, and in small quantities. But in America they really love garlands, which decorate both the Christmas tree and the entire house, the facade and the area around the house. Sometimes on the American New Year's tree you can see large bows made of red satin ribbon. The top of the green beauty is necessarily decorated with a star (symbol of the Star of Bethlehem) or an angel - America is one of the most religious countries in the world.

Another traditional New Year's decoration in the United States is a cane-shaped candy cane, most often decorated with red and white stripes. Often, holiday decor is complemented by an unusual plant - poinsettia. Moreover, what many take for flowers are actually red-colored leaves.

Japan

In preparation for the New Year, the Japanese traditionally make kadomatsu (pine tree at the entrance) - this is a kind of greeting to the deity New Year's holiday. It is made from pine, bamboo, rope woven from rice straw, and decorated with fern branches, tangerines or a bunch of seaweed and dried shrimp. Each of the details of this decoration is symbolic.

The Japanese decorate their houses with bouquets of willow or bamboo branches with mochi hanging on them in the form of flowers, fish, and fruits. These decorations are called mochibana and are colored yellow, green or pink colors, are attached in a visible place or hung from the ceiling at the entrance, so that the deity of the New Year - Tosigami, upon entering the house, immediately begins his duties: taking care of the hospitable hosts in the coming year. In every Japanese house on New Year's Day, three branches appear: bamboo, so that children grow up quickly; plums so that the owners have strong helpers; pine trees so that all family members live as long as the pine tree. To ward off evil spirits, the Japanese hang wreaths of straw (or just bunches) in front of the entrance to their houses. A mandatory attribute of the Japanese New Year is the tangerine tree and tangerines, symbolizing happiness, health and longevity.

China

For the New Year, the Chinese decorate the house with pine and cypress branches (symbols of immortality and nobility). At the entrance they always hang branches of blossoming peach, which scare away evil spirits. The house is also decorated with flowers. And above the door, the Chinese attach five long strips of paper, which mean five types of happiness: luck, honor, longevity, wealth and joy. According to ancient tradition, by the beginning of the New Year's celebration, the house should sparkle with cleanliness. Cleaning usually starts from the threshold and ends in the middle of the house.

Instead of a Christmas tree, a Tree of Light is installed in China. It is decorated with flowers, garlands and lanterns. The main color of the Chinese New Year - red - symbolizes life and the beginning of spring, and the New Year itself in China is called the Spring Festival.

Iran

In Iran, a few weeks before the New Year, wheat or lentil grains are planted in small pots. On Nowruz, green sprouts (sabze) will decorate the festive table, becoming a symbol of the eternal rebirth of nature, which is no coincidence, because the first day of the New Year in Iran is the first day of spring according to the Persian calendar. Place next to the greenery and holy quran(a later addition to the tradition), and if the family is not religious, a volume by Hafiz, a poet whose beautiful poems about love every Iranian knows by heart. A mirror is placed nearby - a symbol of purity and tranquility of life, in which the light of candles is reflected - a symbol of happiness. Also on New Year's Day, it is customary to paint eggs (a symbol of fertility), which Iranians do with great pleasure.

Sometimes in Iranian homes before the New Year you can see a vessel with water in which an orange floats - it symbolizes the Earth in the ocean of space.

Denmark

New Year's decor in Denmark is a combination of simple holiday decorations and discreet color range, natural materials and a special Scandinavian charm in the selection of decorative elements, which is difficult to describe in words. This abundance white, symbolizing snow and coolness, wood as the main material in the manufacture of jewelry, animal motifs (decorative deer heads, deer figurines or deer horns), monochrome decor, emphasis on a combination of many textures and textures. In Denmark, it is customary to decorate larch for the New Year. And the Danes' favorite New Year's decorations are pine cones, fir branches(carefully placed in jugs of water), glass figurines, wreaths and stars made of dry vine branches.

Some people cannot imagine the New Year without snow and a Christmas tree, while others cannot imagine the New Year without hot sand under their feet and exotic plants that can be decorated no worse than a Christmas tree.

Greece

On New Year's Day in Greece they decorate the pomegranate tree. And the pomegranate fruit is a mandatory attribute of the New Year's holiday in every Greek home. In Greece, there is a custom according to which at exactly midnight the head of the family goes into the yard and breaks a pomegranate fruit against the wall. If the grains scatter throughout the yard, the family will live happily in the New Year.

India

In India, mango or banana trees are decorated for Christmas. And houses are decorated with mango leaves and poinsettias (the most beautiful spurge, “Christmas star”). On walls and edges flat roofs Clay oil lamps are placed.

Australia and New Zealand

In Australia, at Christmas and New Year, it is customary to decorate houses and give each other a plant that is a relative of the European mistletoe - Nuitsia. It is called the Christmas tree because of the bright yellowish-orange flowers that appear around the New Year and reach 10 meters in height. A metrosideros strewn with scarlet flowers can also become a New Year's tree. It is also decorated with figurines of koala bears and kangaroos dressed as Santa Claus.

The chief artist of the National Opera and Ballet Theater of Ukraine celebrated her anniversary

The chief designer of the National Opera of Ukraine, Maria Levitskaya, is the author of costumes and scenography for the theater’s most high-profile premieres. She worked on the legendary productions “Swan Lake”, “Cinderella”, “The Queen of Spades”, “The Tale of Tsar Saltan”. She is invited by theaters in Poland, Slovenia, Israel and Canada.

In Maria Sergeevna’s small office great amount sketches and layouts for performances. On the walls are works for the films Roadside Picnic and Captain Fracasse. The cardboard set for the recent premiere of the National Opera, “Cossacks beyond the Danube,” has not yet been removed. Maria Levitskaya, filling the entire office space with her energy, deftly takes out from a large stack of her works one of the first theatrical sketches - the image of Pronya Prokopovna for the play “Chasing Two Hares”. It, along with other works and paintings by Maria Sergeevna, will be presented at her author’s anniversary exhibition in the capital of Ukraine.

— Sometimes it seems that I already know everything about the people I work with at the National Opera House, says Maria Levitskaya. — Many people are very comfortable with us. Especially with workers from the workshops. We have known each other for 30 years. I can’t say that I brought them up to suit me. We just grew up together, sometimes we don’t even need to explain something to each other in words. I love them all madly, because the theater has essentially become my second home. When my mother was alive, all holidays were celebrated in my office, a large table was set. At home I never celebrated anything at all.

*Maria Levitskaya takes a bow with the artists after the performance

— They talk about you as a strong personality.

— Some even create an image of me as a kind of usurper. I won't say that I'm an angel. You can say that I have complete democracy. True, up to a certain limit. Over the years, I have learned to listen to my colleagues and respect other people's ideas. Have you seen my works?

— I admit, I still remember the luxurious stage and costumes of the opera “The Tale of Tsar Saltan.”

— This performance was staged by Anatoly Solovyanenko. Now I mostly work with him. It is very important when you and the director are on the same wavelength, you understand each other at a glance, half a word. I am proud of our works “Don Carlos”, “Cossack beyond the Danube” and, of course, “The Tale of Tsar Saltan”. While working on “The Tale of Tsar Saltan”, she traveled to Moscow. There I looked for a solution for the second act and found it in the Kremlin museums. These were pearls on ancient costumes. On stage, these ideas were embodied in the pearl city. In fact, the stage is all I live for. One day my one good friend, enough a famous person, who offered me his hand and heart, stated: “I understand: you are married to the theater.”

*The costumes made by Maria Levitskaya amaze with their bright colors, grace, and splendor. Scene from the opera “Cossack beyond the Danube”

- And are you comfortable with this?

“I don’t know any other life, so there’s nothing to regret.” But don’t think that I am protecting myself from the world around me. Everything that happens in the theater remains within its walls. I, like all ordinary Ukrainian women, ride the subway and go to stores. In fact, I raised my son myself. Back then, during perestroika, it was hard for everyone.

I remember how my son and I went into the store, and I offered him to choose some kind of toy, to which he replied: “No need, mommy, it’s very expensive.” I lived on the Vinogradar massif and took three hours to get to work at the opera house. We had to go around the Berkovtsi cemetery because there was no direct road yet. I know what “kravchuchki” is and earnings in Poland. We went there for several performances and stormed a train carriage. She made money by selling her batiks. But don’t think that I’m complaining about financial problems, I’m not poor. And I have a car, albeit a small one. The question is how you manage your money. And for what.

— They say you love to travel.

— Almost all of my trips are somehow connected with creativity. When I first worked on the opera Turandot with an Italian director, I made a special trip to China. I bought a ticket for crazy money. I drew up a route for myself along which I was supposed to move around the country, starting with Beijing. She came back and did a performance. They say he is very handsome. Before the production of Don Carlos, I was in Spain for two weeks. I made the trip plan myself. I found out which church has the most beautiful retablo - a large altar image. It was an ancient monastery, which could only be reached on foot. Trips like this are my outlet. I always return home loaded with interesting books and impressions.

- Are these all gifts for yourself, my beloved?

- What else do you need? Things? Decorations? Well, tell me, how many pairs of earrings can I put in my ears? I prepare so many costumes and decorate people so often that, like all fashion designers, I myself prefer to wear something inconspicuous.

— Your mother, the famous Ukrainian muralist Irina Levitskaya, has an amazing life story.

“Mom was an absolutely wonderful woman. It always seemed to me that she lived several lives. The language she began to speak was German, and only then Russian. She studied at a German school located opposite the now destroyed Sennaya Market. This school was disbanded before the war. Mom knew several foreign languages ​​and played the piano beautifully. I am a seventh generation Kiev resident. My great-grandmother was a fairly famous actress at the film factory in the 30s. Grandmother was also an artist. It so happened that my mother had the opportunity to study for some time with Professor Niedermoser at the theater department in Vienna. When I saw her watercolor sketches of costumes for the opera Carmen as a child, I took my breath away. Now, of course, I understand how it can be drawn. But then the level of skill of the young artist captivated me. However, staying in Vienna during the Great Patriotic War had terrible consequences for my family. Grandmother was sent to the camps. She returned when I was already four years old, and three years later she died. She gave all her time to me, but never once remembered the tragedy that befell her.

— In essence, was your connection with art a foregone conclusion?

- Not at all. My dad is a physicist, and I was quite good at this subject. And at one time I wanted to become a historian. I didn’t draw well, but I finally begged my mother to help me enroll in art school. When I was in seventh grade, I started studying there. But, to put it mildly, my grades in painting were not the highest. The connection with the theater also happened thanks to my mother. She and a colleague were making a museum for the Ivan Franko Theater, and that’s where I met the famous Ukrainian theater artist Daniil Leader. I started following him and realized that I wanted to work in the theater. This happened when I was in the last grades of school. Soon I became a student of Daniil Leader. My diploma work was participation in the creation of the play “The Steadfast Prince of Calderon” at the Youth Theater. There was a scandal with the production; the theater director and chief director were fired. And the high authorities banned the performance.

I found myself at a crossroads. Six months later, a fellow student at the institute called me, who at the Dovzhenko Film Studio worked on the film crew of a film about Solomiya Krushelnitskaya. He offered me the position of costume designer on this film. As a result, I worked at the film studio for exactly ten years. She adored her profession and had no plans to leave. True, she periodically participated in theatrical productions directed by Irina Molostova. One day, the director of the National Opera, Lev Venediktov, called me and offered me to become the chief artist. Imagine, in Soviet times, without being a member of the party, at the age of 30 I took a leadership position. I still don't understand how this happened.

— How did you manage to avoid the party?

“I’ll tell you more, I only joined the Komsomol the second time.” The now famous director Sergei Masloboishchikov and I were the only ones in our area who, along with everyone else, were not accepted into the Komsomol, because we honestly said that we had C marks on our report card.

— I was surprised to discover that during the entire time you worked at the Dovzhenko Film Studio, you did not make a single modern film.

— It’s true, I always liked complex historical costumes. She made an exception only once, when she worked in a documentary about Bulat Okudzhava. Then I went to Moscow, to the home of Bulat Shalvovich. He gave me his cloak, and it hung in my room opposite the bed for a long time. In general, working in cinema was incredibly interesting. Or maybe I just like my profession. So much so that it’s even difficult to express it. She keeps me on this earth.

— It is known that you have long and fruitfully collaborated with the National Theater of Russian Drama named after Lesya Ukrainka.

— I love working with the director, head of the Lesya Ukrainka Theater Mikhail Reznikovich. Every time it is a great pleasure and a new experience for me. This was the case with The Stone Lord and many other performances. In fact, I am very grateful to Mikhail Yuryevich for everything he has done for me in this life, and I am not afraid to admit that I love him.

— What was your most difficult performance to conceive?

— It’s difficult to answer this question, as well as to say which of the performances is your favorite. Probably the most expensive one is the one I’m creating now. You know, it's like giving birth to a child: you expect, hope and believe that he will turn out exactly the way you imagined him. Your fantasy has not yet been cut short by reality. Then it becomes part of the life lived. I used to not like premieres. Now I have learned to treat them calmly. Sometimes, as soon as I finished a performance, I fell ill. In recent years, I have learned to balance and come up with some other activities.

— I saw your wonderful landscapes.

“I started writing them relatively recently. I just felt the need for it. In the last year of my mother’s life, I bought a small house near Desna especially for her. I thought she would draw there. But... Now I draw. I spent all of last summer and the summer before last in this house myself. She worked a lot. She even started farming. I would never have thought that I was capable of this. I'm going back to my village for the summer. Now, of course, is not the best time for long trips, however, I try to travel during vacation. Not long ago I managed to get out to Cappadocia - a wonderful place in Turkey. Lately I've noticed that I like walking in the mountains. Spent two months in the Italian Alps, exploring hiking trails. Two years ago I walked along the equestrian route in Karachay-Cherkessia. I never became a good horseman, although this remains my cherished dream. I have been a big fan of horses for almost 20 years. I fell from a horse 40 times and injured my spine. I'm mortally afraid of these amazing animals, but I still love them.

- What are you dreaming about?

— So that my grandson, son, and my family can be happy. It’s too late to dream about the rest. However, there is no need to anger fate; by and large, I feel happy. Because I have theater and people I love.

Did you recognize yourself and your loved ones in our article?

Not all girls are aware of what important role play decorations for them.
Women's jewelry is not just a “silent” detached decor that lives on its own, its own separate life. Our earrings, rings, brooches are those magical “notes” that voice the music of our soul to those around us, and also demonstrate to the world every day beautiful pictures our inner Universe.

1. Reveals our temperament and character
2. Shows the level of protection against energy attacks (talismans, amulets)
3. Symbolize and reflect our sensuality
4. Shows sexual energy levels and tone
5. How important is the attention of the opposite sex to us?
6. How accessible and open we are
7. Shows the presence or absence of taste
8. Reflects success in personal life and career
9. Belonging to a subculture
10. Psychological state in this moment

A discerning person only needs to take a careful look at your visual image in order to “read” the main features of your character. A bright multi-colored tattoo on your leg and huge, trendy cafés on your ears? Before us is the owner of a violent temperament, with whom you always need to “keep your eyes open.” Shocking outfit and accessories? It is obvious that the lady lacks the attention of others. Very expensive jewelry and in great abundance? Before you is a serious and ambitious person who “don’t put a finger in his mouth.”

Your jewelry and accessories can hint to others not only about your social status and temperament, but also about some topics of your thoughts and even about your sphere professional activity. Just to hint - to outline an approximate range of interests, beliefs and principles, to reveal noticeable features of your sociological portrait.

Jewelry reveals a woman's temperament and character

Just 100 years ago, the laws of society shackled women within a fairly rigid framework of conventions. It was believed that jewelry could only be made from precious stones, wearing them during the day was considered indecent, etc. and so on. Women had very few tools for creating images in their arsenal, and even more so for representatives of the poorer class! Any little thing caused a whole storm of emotions among others: envy, condemnation, and aggression. Terrible times, aren't they? That's the case today! Modern woman can afford almost everything! Luxurious diamonds, trendy plastic, a variety of jewelry - thousands of colors, shapes and shades that allow us to add precise accents and touches to our daily look.

Today, a woman’s character is revealed much deeper and more understandable to others. A woman can send external world signals and even full-fledged social messages: just remember the trend recent years-necklace with the inscriptions “Cool”, “Happy”. Or huge fashionable necklaces with shouting words - “Help”, “Hot”, “Love”, “Peace”.

In this sense, the image of European women is especially indicative and perfect - French and Italian women feel much more relaxed compared to representatives of eastern countries, which means they are happier. Their lives are richer and more fulfilling. Being yourself, expressing yourself daily and freely is a psychological need of every person; Carl Jung and other famous psychologists wrote about this in detail.

Shy girls also need to express themselves. They just prefer more hidden, deeper and more emotional symbols in jewelry. As a rule, these are individual works of authorship, ethnic, hand-made. Modest romantic natures often choose jewelry in the oriental style - lace Tibetan beads, Nepalese bracelets, charming Chinese pendants and many other oriental delights that evoke fantasies of distant countries, the noisy sounds of oriental bazaars, the gentle east wind from the aromas of jasmine and spices.

Ladies of a dramatic nature prefer very catchy and eye-catching jewelry - large stones, luxurious jewelry design, extravagant combination of accessories. A grandiose brooch in the shape of a lush scarlet rose on her chest, garlands of earrings hanging down to her shoulders, imitating peacock feathers - such a woman lives passionately, without sparing her heart, craves unquestioning adoration and generously gifts her admirer with all-consuming beauty. Some men would consider it great happiness to die in the arms of such a woman! Yes! There are such men in nature.

Representatives of a moderate and calm disposition prefer to wear jewelry in a classic style - refined, time-tested jewelry. Intellectual prudes focus on neat and discreet hand-made items, made exclusively from exquisite natural stones– rock crystal, rose quartz, peridot, etc.

Protection from energy attacks (talismans, amulets)

Like our ancestors who lived thousands of years ago, we believe that talismanic jewelry protects us from “dark forces” evil eye envious people and fatal coincidences.

We wear a scarab for good luck, and turquoise jewelry to attract love into our lives. Unconsciously, we ourselves form a protective biofield around our aura - with the power of our thoughts, the power of our faith.

The power of our talismans lies not only in magical properties natural stones from which they are created, but also in our psychological attitudes. In many ways, symbols and signs gain their magical power from of great importance, which we give them.

Very often we dress not for the sake of a social message to others, but for personal comfort. To create the mental space in which we feel comfortable living. This personal space is our main defense against energy attacks from the outside. It is much more difficult to exert psychological influence on a person with a deep and rich inner world. The more complex and highly organized your inner world is, the more difficult it is for “external forces” to control or destroy it. That is why it is so important to listen to yourself, to your feelings when choosing certain jewelry, because with their help we form, preserve and protect our inner psychological space, our inner world. For example, we put on some things and jewelry only to remember previously experienced sensations. Yes Yes! “These amethyst earrings remind me of him, of that wonderful evening...” - we girls are such sensitive creatures. We definitely need our fabulous and beautiful world - a world of feelings, experiences and sensations in which we swim like goldfish or flutter like butterflies. Each girl has her own fairy tales, her own personal space, her own Universe, which reliably protects us from the aggressive world around us. By the way, this is why the loss of some jewelry is terribly upsetting for absolutely all women. It's like we're losing a part of ourselves. Indeed, during our life together with them, our favorite jewelry becomes receptacles of memory and priceless treasures, regardless of their price. This is why we often feel unprotected when we forget to put on a favorite pendant or a particularly memorable ring.

The symbolism of our sensuality

Decoration and practicality are incompatible things! Practical earrings are akin to medical gloves - very practical, but absolutely ugly. The more complex, sophisticated and interesting your jewelry, the more complex and sensitive your soul. It is obvious. It’s hard to imagine how “comfortable” Cinderella was in her glass slippers, but can you really imagine her in any other shoes? At the same time, it is not at all necessary to strive to create an image that is very far from your nature or does not correspond to it at all. Such a “masquerade” is unlikely to receive high praise from others. It is always very important to work with your true essence– complement, reveal it, emphasize the advantages. Even a jewelry design that is primitive at first glance can be made with great taste and reflect your simple and straightforward approach to things, which, by the way, many men value above intricate and not always understandable sophistication.

If your inner world is like a raging endless ocean, sometimes allow it to splash out in the form of fantastic lines and exciting shades. Jewelry acquires colossal magical power in the hands of passionate women with a subtle artistic taste.

Attention from the opposite sex

Women's jewelry has a special mission: to create an image, a woman's personal space and, of course, attract the attention of the opposite sex. Here we can easily assume that the more jewelry a woman wears, the stronger her desire to attract male attention.

There is a considerable amount of truth in this. A very ancient and primitive feature of human perception is the ability to be instantly fascinated by everything shiny and filigree. And this property is inherent equally in both men and women. It is enough to add a couple of exquisite shiny accessories to the most ordinary dress, and it will turn into a fairy-tale outfit in the eyes of others, and its owner will appear as a fairy-tale princess in their imagination! This is surprising, but such a simple technique has worked and still works, bringing a new palette of feelings and sensations into our world.

For many of us, being in public without our favorite jewelry is like leaving the house in a robe and slippers. Those around us, of course, will not notice anything unusual in our appearance, but at the same time our sense of self will be zero. And, consequently, our energy will not be fully realized, we will not reach the pinnacle of self-expression and spiritual harmony. The gloss and chic that so seduces the opposite sex will disappear. Is it so important to look seductive?

A woman who is uninteresting to men is an unhappy woman. Who can argue with this statement? Perhaps no one. Another question is, which men do we need the attention of, and which men do we not want to accept attention from?

This is where it is very important to weigh every detail of your wardrobe, think through every accessory and every touch. You must look attractive to the “men of your dreams.” To do this, it is important to know what “cultural type” they belong to, what kind of women they like. All “cultural codes” must be observed. A successful top manager is unlikely to be charmed by a girl who is too eccentric and shocking, but he may not even notice the “gray mouse”. In your hands are the finest instruments - signals with the help of which you carry out a “message” to the outside world. Some signs seduce, decorate and attract attention, while others, on the contrary, repel.

Regardless of style, almost all jewelry can be used as a “weapon” of temptation. Touchingly fiddling with a cute pendant on a long chain, unobtrusively twirling an elegant ring on your finger, loudly clinking massive bracelets as you pass by, while swinging long iridescent earrings that fill the entire room with “beams of sunshine” - all these simple actions attract attention and, undoubtedly, seduce . In fact, this is a signal to the outside world: “Look at me. There's a lot to see here."

Seductiveness is not always a pronounced sexuality. The exclusivity and originality of your image can have an incredibly strong effect on men. A strict, almost ascetic necklace of amazing design combined with a business suit of a fantastically stylish cut and a fresh, neat hairstyle can drive anyone crazy. At the same time, there is no deliberate sexuality in the image.

Don't forget that your appearance is one of the most important markers of intelligence. If you are interested in smart men, beware of looking primitive and frivolous. On the contrary, with the help of masterfully selected jewelry and a “smart” image, you can interest a man who is fascinated by women with developed intelligence. What style of jewelry can convey intellectual abilities? Definitely a classic. Moreover, it is a very elegant, not flashy classic. There should be no wildness, vulgarity or other stylistic excesses in your image, only civilized restraint, even slightly conservative restraint. An intellectual image does not tolerate hypersexuality, pretentious “beauty,” or some very trendy, time-untested artistic motifs and materials. At the same time, you should look incredibly fresh! This is where the magic of color comes to the fore. A snow-white, perfectly ironed shirt can amazingly highlight sophisticated and very neat earrings with noble black agate or elegant Labradorite. Since ancient times, “intellectual” and noble shades include classic green (malachite, chrysoprase), dark burgundy (agate), black (onyx, black agate), dark shades of brown (rauchtopaz, fluorite, bull’s eye), white (mountain crystal, pearls). When creating a distinctly business style and a “smart look,” it is recommended to stay within this color palette – plus or minus a couple of calm pastel colors. There will not be a hint of passion or desire in your appearance, but at the same time you will be damn attractive and incredibly seductive for an intelligent and discriminating man. Intelligence seduces. But it seduces very delicately, unobtrusively.

How seductive do we want to look?

Various access levels

special offers for you

What jewelry symbolizes that a woman is more or less open and accessible? Perhaps there is no exact answer here - the world of images and symbols is quite conventional. Each person can perceive certain touches and details of the wardrobe differently. But there are very specific signs that hint to the male half that the woman is waiting for attention to her person. Seductive pendants in a deep and open neckline, incredibly long shoulder-length earrings, chains and necklaces on an open back, very large hoop earrings, a huge peacock feather in a non-standard hairstyle - almost all signals of openness have stylistic and aesthetic excesses. These are almost always shocking accents that are absolutely conspicuous. Typically, a high level of accessibility is emphasized by great openness erogenous zones, lavishly decorated with truly luxurious and often exotic jewelry. For example, a stunning cocktail ring on a long chain in the area of ​​a very deep neckline is a rather significant and promising signal. opposite sex. Jewelry and accessories help visually “regulate” levels of access: an ascetic and discreet image demonstrates our closeness and reluctance to receive increased signs of attention at the moment. A flirtatious and intriguing appearance, on the contrary, hints at a playful mood and a desire to communicate. One way or another, it’s always worth thinking about what and when we wear, what we decorate ourselves with, and what kind of reaction from others we need at the moment.

Sexual energy level and tone

Express the depth of your passionate nature Jewelry that evokes certain associations will help you. Simply put, decorations are hints, the purpose of which is to demonstrate your activity.

A tireless warrior can wear a huge Indian ivory bracelet. A passionate beauty who craves immediate attention “here and now” can decorate her look with an African cowrie shell necklace.

Bracelets on your feet always look distinctly sexy. The male population, it must be said, traditionally goes into a tailspin from the thin shiny bracelets on the graceful tanned female ankles. When putting such an accessory on your leg, don’t even expect to look innocent - this is a strong sign of sexual activity that will press a very specific pedal.

But let's not forget the seductiveness of female intelligence. This delicate presentation of sexuality is expressed not in obvious signals that evoke an instant instinct, but through a refined and perfect image. This is the aesthetics of a special, sublime sexuality, when a woman is perceived not as an attractive object of the opposite sex, but almost as an unearthly deity, causing awe and delight. Light and transparent stones of crystal purity and round shape. Amethyst vintage earrings, for example, demonstrate a difficult temperament and claims to the depth of a relationship. After all, amethyst is a “stone of a pure heart,” a mineral of deep worldview and subtle perception. A girl who prefers amethyst is extremely demanding of her chosen one, but at the same time she is quite open and sociable. Always a stunningly pure, angelically seductive look allows you to create jewelry with rock crystal crystals.

Presence or absence of taste

We express our own style through decoration! At the same time, others can appreciate our taste, our sense of style and beauty. An experienced and discerning eye will instantly assess how your jewelry fits into your wardrobe, whether its shape is in harmony with the shape of your face and skin tone. The divine geometry of the Universe is the ideal combination of all elements of the image, the accuracy of all proportions, the perfection of lines, and the competent use of the color palette.

The complete absence of any signs (decorations) can be regarded as a paucity of the inner world - such women are, of course, less noticeable and less interesting to the male half. Men prefer women who are bright, even overly romantic, but always emotionally rich, with their own individual and unique appearance. It is always more interesting to meet such women, flirt, communicate and go through life. Coquettes and stylish ladies, as a rule, have wit and charm, so men fly to such girls “on the wings of love,” overcoming all obstacles. A stylish woman is always an object of male attention and adoration. In some unknown way, men can determine the psychological mood of girls by their appearance. And we must give them this chance again and again - to “read” our mood with the help of symbols and signs, otherwise there is no other way!

Success in personal life and career

A woman who is successful in every sense can afford a lot. And the question is not even about the cost of jewelry. Modern technologies make it possible to produce imitations of natural stones and metals, sometimes even superior in beauty to their analogues. You don't have to look far for an example. Swarovski crystals are worn by stars of the first magnitude, vying with each other to admit that the radiance of these jewelry fascinates them no less than the sparkle of natural diamonds.

In this sense, a woman’s success is expressed not in the high cost of jewelry, but in its quality and quantity. Yes Yes! A rich arsenal of accessories and jewelry, courage in creating an image, obvious self-confidence, frequent changes of style - these are the main markers successful career and a successful personal life of a woman. But external constraint, monotony or lack of decoration, an unexpressed style can only tell about the presence of problems and fatigue from life.

Your appearance can tell about your hobbies and belonging to a certain type of culture. Earrings, bracelets, pendants are some of the most eloquent storytellers about the content of your spiritual world. Representatives of bohemians always wear only emphatically luxurious jewelry - they literally “breathe” luxury! Bohemian ladies have a bright eccentric character, most often they have direct relation to the world of art and artistic professions, therefore they approach the creation of their appearance with increased attention. There is always some theatricality and sublimity in their appearance. Sparkling brooches on a light cashmere coat, thin exquisite bracelets on top of high satin gloves, a reticule skillfully embroidered with stones - sheer charm! Bohemian ladies are always the center of attention - men don’t miss such women! Bohemian ladies love to wear evening jewelry during the day - shining rhinestones, huge chandelier earrings, chic rings with large stones. Artists, fashion designers, designers - all these are “free birds” who are allowed more in terms of image than everyone else. Well-groomed fingers strewn with rings, non-standard cut of clothes, many accessories, including shocking ones.

Super-business “yuppies” wear exclusively expensive and incredibly stylish “classics”. Golden majorist youth loves to look emphatically glamorous and always “festival” - a holiday every day!

A fairly large layer of modern jewelry can be attributed to the teenage subculture - a studded bracelet on a teenager symbolizes a “prickly” character, a bright, contradictory personality leading a fairly active party life.
Here, jewelry reflects belonging to a certain community or, as they also say, “community” - belonging to one’s social group, which is very important for adolescence. All teenage subcultures are characterized by excessive symbolic signals that help young and psychologically defenseless creatures distinguish “us” from “strangers.” The abundance of black in the image, the presence of metal chains, rings and prints with skulls, bracelets and collars with spikes - this artistic ensemble distinguishes “goths,” for example, from “emo” with their pink hearts and an abundance of plastic in jewelry. These subcultures have completely different jewelry designs, bringing opposing symbols to the world. If “goths” position themselves as representatives of “ dark force”, bringing dark, aggressive energy into our world, then “emo” are defenseless, hypersensitive depressive creatures who often find themselves victims of aggression. By choosing this or that subculture, you send certain signals to society, which will certainly be returned to the recipient in the form of new acquaintances and the corresponding attitude of others.

Perunitsa, amulet, as well as all kinds of bracelets and pendants with Slavic signs They will certainly tell others about your faith and worldview.

Current psychological state

Your loved ones and acquaintances, unnoticed by you and themselves, daily “read” various codes and signs from your appearance that reflect your mood and psychological state at the moment. For example, if today you are wearing the usual studs and your favorite everyday ring, this means that life goes on as usual and nothing significant has happened in your life since yesterday. But as soon as you appear in new bright jewelry, increased attention to your person will be ensured. Compliments and questions will certainly pour in from all sides: “Why is she so beautiful? Is it your birthday today?” And so on.

So, if you miss compliments and admiring glances addressed to you or want to attract the attention of a specific person, do it with the help of new jewelry. This is a true and proven method.

In personal relationships, your jewelry can also play the role of symbols and signs that will help you communicate with your half in a more sublime - metaphysical language. The art of love is the ability to convey feelings without words. The subtlest semantic accents, transparent hints, “screaming” symbols - all this is an arsenal of wordless language, the language of feelings and emotions. The sphere of feelings is the most fragile sphere in a person’s life. In a simple word, said too harshly, can hurt a person, kill feelings and destroy relationships. And jewelry can quite accurately demonstrate your mood. At the same time, you will not cross any important milestone or limit. If your patience is full, you can express whatever you want in the language of images and symbols. It is enough to cross the line in visual terms - wear a flashy outfit, deliberately aggressive jewelry, while maintaining space for maneuver and hope for a successful outcome in resolving all problems and misunderstandings.
In a prosperous and serene family life The role of jewelry is no less important - men always expect from us... What do men expect from us?

Probably not just beauty, freshness and charm. Men are always waiting for new emotions and impressions. They always want to be surprised, to comprehend the incomprehensible, to tame the rebellious, to seduce the unapproachable. Your daily “bland” and monotonous appearance can lull the most violent romantic! It is a woman’s sacred duty to maintain a high degree of relationships, work on the quality of communication, and intrigue!

How to create amazement? Astonishment? Your new image, unusual, unexpected and intriguing, can cause a new surge of emotions in a man, genuine interest and many questions to which he will certainly look for answers. Like the first time!
