19 years of marriage - what kind of wedding and what to give?

Love is not a mirror pond into which you can stare forever. It has ebbs and flows. And the wreckage of shipwrecks, and sunken cities, and octopuses, and storms, and boxes of gold, and pearls... But the pearls lie very deep. Erich Maria Remarque “Arc de Triomphe” A married couple, having been married for 19 years, quite often do not know what kind of wedding it is, what traditions it is, what it is customary to give each other. This is due to the fact that nineteen years of marriage are not celebrated, since after the anniversary - 15 years from the wedding day, only round wedding anniversaries are celebrated. However, the significance of this celebration should not be underestimated.

The name of this holiday is associated with a stone - garnet, which can return former feelings to the hearts of two close people, helping to ignite the fire of passion, romance and adventurism, which over time will turn into an even and peaceful flame of the family hearth. Therefore, according to our distant ancestors, it is the pomegranate that is the symbol of the 19th anniversary, which is called the pomegranate wedding.

Legends and beliefs of a pomegranate wedding

Garnet is an unusual stone that gives rise to many beliefs and legends. His strength and protection will help in many endeavors, showing him the right path. After all, from a long time ago he was loved in different countries and found his admirers.

Many years ago, Noah, in a difficult moment, illuminated his path to the ark with a garnet lantern and, probably, that’s why he was able to escape.
According to legends, he has power over people. But he does not hide it within himself, but gives it to his owner. Therefore, people striving for fame and power always wear a ring with a garnet on their ring finger.
This stone gives optimism and hope to people who are unsure of themselves.
Pregnant women wore jewelry with pomegranate so that the birth would be easy and without complications, and the baby would see the world healthy and resilient.
The guy in love gave the girl a ring or pendant with this stone. With this act, he told her about his love, hoping for a long continuation of the relationship. With the help of this mysterious talisman it was possible to kindle the heart of an obstinate girl who did not pay attention to the love and courtship of her admirer. Having received a gift, the girl was obliged to decorate her ring finger with a ring and hang the pendant on a chain, but so that it was necessarily at the level of her heart.

What properties have not been attributed to this stone! What legends have not been made about him! And all this is due to the fact that it has truly miraculous power, capable of working miracles and giving joy to those who have come to know and keep this stone.

There is a Georgian legend according to which this stone has a beautiful history of origin.

It tells the story of how one Georgian king was puzzled by the choice of a groom for his beloved daughter, who was his only daughter.
He chose her groom very carefully. As a test for the applicants, he came up with a difficult test. It consisted in the fact that the future groom had to find three ripe pomegranate fruits. These fruits were not ordinary. They grew on the only tree in the marvelous garden. And the garden was located in a lifeless desert, located very far away. The pomegranate tree that grew in this beautiful garden was magical. The garden was guarded by evil spirits, and it was impossible to pass by them unnoticed. But still, one young man dared to pass this test and was able to get the magical pomegranate fruits.
When he returned home, he found the king dying. Bad weather was raging in his country, and people were starving. The young man thought that pomegranate fruits could help the king and his state. And when the young man broke the first fruit, the king immediately recovered. When the second fruit was revealed, beautiful gardens bloomed in the country. And the people were able to reap a huge harvest, thanks to which the famine ended. When the third pomegranate was opened, precious stones fell out of it, similar to pomegranate seeds. These stones scattered all over the world. And to those who find them, love and prosperity come.

It is believed that pomegranate can ignite feelings and passion even in an icy heart. He will definitely attract a person close to you in terms of energy, who will become your other half. Pomegranate owners do not know separation and the bitterness of betrayal.
