Pearl

The pearl is the emblem of genius in obscurity or incognito. Also, it is compared to feminine beauty and purity.

Artificial or cultured pearls from China are considered to be of great value comparable to the ones grown in oysters or mussels. According to ancient fabulists or tellers of fables the “night-shining-pearl” is the absolute essence of the moon. In ancient times the pearl-shell was used as money.

In Buddhist as well as Taoist sects, it represents the discovery of wholeness and wisdom within oneself.
