A Traditional Symbol of Luck | Bracelets for Protection - Alef Bet by Paula

Red string bracelets watch over and protect you. You've most likely seen someone wearing a red string bendel bracelet, like the one above. Perhaps it wasn't as elaborate as that image, it might just be as simple as a red string.

But if you haven't, a suggested read on the blog that you'll find interesting is all about the traditions and folkloric tales of what the powers of red string are about. It can be found at Red String Bracelet, What is it Exactly?

The color red is found all over the world as a way to stop harm from coming your way. The strong color pushes back any bad mojo that even thinks of approaching. Think about it, we use red flashing lights on our roads to mean signal a potential warning or emergency. Even stop signs are red to alert people about any dangers.

Red is also a very spiritual color that represents energy, action, desire, and passion.

And it also repels the evil eye.

Now think about it a little bit about if you've seen a red string tied to one's wrist. It makes more sense now that it is worn as an amulet to protect and to stop any harm from coming their way.

Imagine yourself wearing that same string, but with a decorative charm, so you'll never have to sacrifice style for protection. That is where the red string bendel bracelet comes into play. The string of fate is now decorated with a sterling silver charm.

A perfect example: Saint Benedict is the saint known for protection and the one "that intercedes for us so that we may understand how great is the gift of peace. Assist those who strive for unity among people divided by so many painful events, that we may all be brothers."

The red string, in this example, is paired with not only a Catholic saint, but also with a handmade blue Nazar Turkish evil eye on a red string of fate bracelet. Modern designs made more stylish, right?
