She gave him a gift once, and since this is their story, I'll let their words tell it. The following was a note she'd included to explain to him the exact intention of each element. We'll reconnect after you read this for more on my side. "The single red bead represents the exactness of Shiva's desire. That all he sees is Shakti. That they can't not be together. So with his blood red eyes he targets that which he desires most. All of his focus, attention and awareness concentrates into a precise manifestation of his desire. One bead.
The two white beads represent the truth that protects and holds his desire. It's the innocence, the purity and the integrity that wraps around you when you've realized your truth. Like two body guards of clarity on either side. Each white bead is one of us on the other side of desire.
The black of the onyx represents all the blackness, dirt, hardship and struggle that we have to go through to get to the trinity of truth and desire. It's the work. It's the muck. It's the darkness. But it's often the darkness that reveals the light, so you have to have one to witness the other.
She is all he sees. She is the manifestation of his desire. He reveals himself through the mirror and image of her. Her place in this world is for him, of him and because of him. She is the recognition of him. He can't exist without her.
Never not together."
