Cosmic Egg

2023

The cosmic egg has its origin in Egyptian mythology and is associated with the sun god and father of creation Ra. The legend states that in the beginning, before creation, Ra was contained within an egg laid upon a mound by a celestial bird. The egg became a symbol of life, enclosing nascent life to emerge from it. It also embodies the idea of rebirth and rejuvenation in the cycle of life, reflected in its shape, with neither beginning nor end.

Janet’s Cosmic Egg is an activated egg, that intents to support the feeling of being reborn and rejuvenated. The 7 crystals related to the 7 chakras on the human body are ‘born’ out of the egg. These crystals can be taken into a persons hands and placed on the chakras to harmonize and stimulate nurturing energy flow in the person’s body.

The Cosmic Egg is a playful reference to the famous Fabergé Eggs: precious stones and advanced technology are used to create a beautiful object. The Cosmic Egg however is seeking multi sensory interaction with humans instead of plain visual admiration.
