According to African legend, these bracelets offer protection and great fortune to the wearer. The knots represent thepowerful earth forces water, sun, fire and wind. The strands symbolize the seasons. Moving the knots along the strands is thought to create balance between earth and nature, and to bring harmony and well-being to those who wear it.
