This is a story about a personal experience I had recently, in which I honored 3 goddesses by wearing colors that represent them. 

Before my recent trip, I had gone to my local Renfaire. Every year I trade something I made for a braid. I started doing that back when I sold my hand dyed fabrics from a booth. Some years I am not vending and some years I am, but I always make something out of my hand dyed fabric or yarn for the braidy lady. This year I was vending my hand dyed scarves as part of the Haven Craft booth. The braid booth has the customers choose ribbon colors, typically 3 colors. This year, I chose lavender to honor Sigyn, rose to honor Freya, and gold to honor Sif. 

I kept my braids in during my trip to the desert, and still had them in when I returned. I cut off the knots of the ends of my braids and put the small knots in my spiritual souvenir shrine. Shortly after that, my mom brought out a pendant she said she had just found. She said she didn't remember having it, and thought I'd like to have it. 

It was cloisonne on a gold tone metal -- gold for Sif. It was shaped like a heart -- a heart for Freya. The cloisonne design was butterflies -- butterflies for Sigyn. The background color of the cloisonne was purple-- that's my color, purple for Erin. 

I honored the goddesses and was provided with something with which to continue to honor them. It is now one of my pieces of sacred jewelry.
