Wheat

10,000 years ago something revolutionary happened: human beings became farmers. This was an early and critical step toward establishing civilizations, cities and cultures; farming frees up time to create. Art is therefore a product of wheat, the most ancient cereal grain, often anthropomorphized as a beautiful mother. Many ancient cultures believed that wheat has a spirit that resides within, and considering all that wheat has afforded humans, maybe it does. Wheat symbolizes wealth and rebirth, fertility, art, and civilization itself. You can smell its significance in a freshly baked loaf of bread. Wear wheat to invoke the soul’s fallow field from which all art is grown.
