The Star of David, also known as the Shield of David or Magen David in Hebrew, is a symbol consisting of two equilateral triangles that overlap to form a six-pointed star. It is a widely recognized symbol of Judaism and Jewish identity. Each triangle represents the integration of opposing forces, such as God and humanity, spiritual and physical, or the connection between different dimensions of Jewish life.
The Star of David has a long history and has been associated with Jewish communities for centuries. While its exact origins are unclear, it has been used as a Jewish symbol since at least the 17th century. The symbol gained prominence during the 19th century and was later adopted as the emblem on the flag of the modern State of Israel, which was established in 1948.
It's important to note that the Star of David is a religious and cultural symbol and is not exclusive to Judaism. In recent times, it has also been used more broadly as a symbol of Jewish identity and pride.
in Kabbalah, the mystical tradition of Jewish mysticism, the chai symbol (חי) is associated with deeper spiritual significance. In Kabbalistic numerology, each Hebrew letter is assigned a numerical value, and the word "chai" has a numerical value of 18. The number 18 is considered a symbol of good luck and positive energy in Jewish tradition.
The connection between the chai symbol and the number 18 is often reflected in charitable donations and gifts. It is common for individuals to give donations or gifts in multiples of 18 as a way of conveying blessings for a good and meaningful life. This practice is known as "giving chai."
In Kabbalah, numbers and letters are believed to have esoteric meanings, and the symbolism of chai as 18 is one example of how Kabbalistic thought can be woven into everyday Jewish practices and traditions.
Many wear it as it symbolises how they feel—a celebration of life.
