This pendant was designed by Joe Zastrow who won David’s jewelry design contest of February-March 2007. It contains one of the methods to sketch the Golden Mean of Phi (1.618….). It also contains (on top) the Greek letter Phi, representing the divine proportion.
Phi is a constant value which is even more mysterious and profound in its implications than pi (3.14…). Like pi, phi is a number with no arithmetical solution - The decimals just keep on going into infinity without ever repeating themselves. The unique thing about this number is that it can be found incorporated in all known organic structures: From the bone structure of human beings; through the seed pattern of a sunflower; to the spiral of a sea shell, the phi proportion is there, underlying all biological structures, seeming to be a geometrical blueprint for life itself.  Plato went so far as to call the phi ratio the “key to the physics of the cosmos”.
 

This pendant is inspired by the story of the prophet Elijah in the book of Kings. There it tells of Elijah proposing a test to show that the Hebrew G-d is the real and only god and that the Baal is a false god. He competes alone against 450 Baal prophets. They build an altar, make a sacrifice, pray and cut themselves but their god doesn’t answer and Elijah ridicules at them.

At this point, he sends out for 12 rocks and 4 barrels of water. He builds an altar for G-d from the 12 rocks and digs a drench around it. He commands filling the drench with water from the barrels and repeating it 3 times (3×4=12). He then asks G-d to accept the sacrifice. At that moment a fire came from the sky and ignited the sacrifice. All the people who witnessed this event immediately re-accepted G-d as the only one and true and the Baal prophets were put to death. 
 
In the pendant you can see 4 triangles with 12 vertexes and in the middle is created a perfect square. In the story of Elijah we have 12 stones and 12 barrels of water - 12×12=144 which is the twelfth number in the Fibonacci series, which enfolds the secrets to the order of the universe.
 
The letter in the middle is a version of the Hebrew letter SHIN which usually has only 3 arms but legends say the when redemption comes this letter will have 4 arms as shown in the pendant. The Hebrew engraving on the parameter of the pendant is the story from the book of Kings.

 ”The pendant (Merkaba with prana sphere) arrived I put it on and felt immediate energy increase. I could feel strong steady flow of prana/lifeforce energy going into my body. I was like ‘wow this pendant really is special’ then I read the scroll that came with the card about the pendant. I am so glad I bought it, thank you…After I emailed you last night I layed down and almost instantly astral projected at first I was just next to my body I remember looking around the room and even seeing my astral arms and hands then I went up through the roof and out into space at incredible speed I was going so fast the stars started looking like lines. At one point I started slowing down then changing direction then I speeded up again super fast I must have been going light speed or close to it. I came to a orange with some reddish color to it planet and just hovered there and then I poped back into my body. It was so awsome I wonder if it has anything to do with the jewelry. That was my first deep space astral projection ever. I felt super refreshed when I got back in my body too.”

One of my greatest hobbies is growing exotic fish (especially Discus fish). I love fish because the idea behind the Vesica Pisces (literally “the measure of the fish”) which is the basic of the universe’s proportion.

From my aquarium:

I also feel very connected to the philosophy concerning water and their ability to change form and to flow between all places, connecting everyone and everything. In the book of Dune by Frank Herbert it is written “From the waters shall come all life” and I find this to be very true.

The fish I grow all come from the Amazonas River which I find to be one of the most beautiful places on the face of the earth.

David Weitzman is a cosmic jewelry Artist. He started off with his creations in 1998. You may have a glimpse of his sacred world, on his website, Ka gold jewelry. Unlike ordinary jewelry, his trinkets possess certain ‘charms’ in them. You read it right, charms, they are festooned with healing powers, which are imbibed in them by some kind of ‘energizing process’, wanna know more, well, scroll down to know the answer,

1. My, first question is, what drew you towards designing and that also ‘cosmic jewelry’?

David: As a child I loved animals and nature and wanted to be a zoologist or an archeologist. I was fascinated by nature, I still am, and I’ve noticed the laws and regularities of nature. I read many books during my childhood about ancient cultures such as ancient

I get great encouragement to continue creating because every model I create is created out of my personal interest. When I achieve a new understanding that I want to pass to others I create a new model. This is why each piece of jewelry is meaningful. I thought a lot about how I could pass an idea to someone who is far away, someone in a far country, speaking a different language. The shapes I use in my jewelry are my way of doing that because they are free of language barriers.

David: The special energizing process all the jewelry go through is very complex and comes from a long meditative process. It is similar to what Mekubalim (Kabala practitioners) call ‘Kavanot’ (intentions) and the Hindus call ‘Samadi’. It is a conscious state, created after a very long process of meditation, where one has the ability to affect reality, not by physical actions, but by thought.

4. You’ve mentioned it in your webpage that people do contact you after wearing the ‘cosmic jewelry’. We’d like you to tell us more about it, I mean, have they accounted any interesting effects after wearing your jewelry?David: Many people contact me to tell me of changes in their lives after wearing my jewelry. One of the most amazing stories is one that I’ve witnessed myself and that had encouraged me to continue making jewelry. When I first started creating jewelry, I started with the model of the Merkaba and gave the pendants to friends and relatives. One of the people I gave it to was a very nice young man who used to come to my house a lot and was, sadly, a drug addict. One night I woke up and found him sleeping on our sofa, shaking, grinding his teeth and sweating. The next day I decided to give him the Merkaba pendant and explained to him about this shape and what it means. The change was amazing!! – Within a day he stopped smoking (even cigarettes); in 2 weeks he was wearing white and practicing meditation. Until then, it was practically impossible to interact with this person, who had been using very heavy drugs, and we really thought that he was lost. Within a few months he was completely ‘clean’ of the drugs and was meditating for 8 hours (!!) with a smile on his face and he is as lucid as can be. Today he has a cute child and he lives on an organic farm in the north of

.


 

David: I’m currently wearing a wrought iron ring that I’ve made for myself and has great personal symbolic meaning. For a long while I was wearing the Personal creation pendant because I had started making the jewelry to bring the shapes and values of Sacred Geometry to people and this pendant has many of those in it: the Seed of life, the Fibonacci sequence, the Pi value and more.

6. May we have the honor of knowing your future plans with respect to your designs? And presently, what are the interesting things that have hooked your attention?David: There are many designs I would like to create and ideas I would like to manifest but I’m not sure people are ready for them so for the moment I’m creating some of them for myself. These days, I’m working on creating a Metatron’s cube which is a shape that contains all the molecular shapes combined together. This is a very complex model, including many shapes one inside the other and will be about 20cm large. I want to create a few of these and place them in different places in the world because this shape is known to have very strong influences on its surroundings.


7. Any parting words of wisdom, you’d like to give to our readers?

David: I would like to tell all your readers – Never believe anything you are told and take it for granted – go out and check it for yourselves!! And as well, know that we are all merely molecules bouncing all over…

8. Finally, we would like to have your thoughts on the Instablogs News Network and all its related sites. Which one is your favorite?

David: I found InstaBlogs sites very interesting and especially the one that deals with Economy. Since money is behind many things in our world today (politics, wars and even religion) I find this is site helps understand “where the wind is blowing” in our world, it reflects movements and gives the ability to see world trends.

Last but not the least, I’d like to thank David for this fabulous interview and wish him luck for all his future endeavors.
