what does the color pearl represent
Eastern cultures believe that pearls symbolize purity and spiritual transformation. Simply wearing a pearl reminds the wearer to be honest, pure, wise, and to walk with the utmost dignity. Different colors of pearls bear different meanings. As expected, white pearls symbolize purity, innocence, faith, and honesty.
In a generic sense, a pearl is, as Mircea Eliade once said 'born of the water', meaning born of Spirit [water being the closest vibrational level to earth] , so at its most basic level a pearl represents the spiritual world, made manifest in the physical world, but it does have more specific meanings.
