A person under threat for beliefs they hold dear. Threatened because of who they are. A need for sanctuary, a need for space to regroup, reconsider and transform. The need for a watchful eye to protect them in their journey. Emerald is that watchful eye, it is that place of sanctuary from where they have been or where they may have to go.
This could be a woman living in a violent or stifling relationship, or just the wrong partner and duty or social pressure trap them, Emerald gives that space in which true choice can be made. An Emerald was placed around the waist of a pregnant women in ancient Egypt to facilitate an easy birth. Negatively the person may be envious of others who have made changes or done better and fail to see that the person has probably done the work to reconcile past traumas. Resentment and bitterness from events deep in the past, unable to forgive.
Emerald is the primeval urge to express, be creative and to transform.
Green is colour of growth and the Emerald was the stone of Isis. So this is often a spiritual transition, and can be a route to acceptance and servitude more than an escape to try again (and fail again). Equally after a time of sanctuary the person, more strengthened, may break free of the influence of past traumas by taking themselves away from the situation permanently.
In a student group proving there were references to conquistadors, being trapped by these soldiers on horseback, rearing up and threatening and then being whisked away to a place of sanctuary.
Images of cats recurred. Emeralds are found in South America (plundered by the conquistadors) and in Egypt (the cat goddess (Bast) guards the crossing of the river Styx to the other world and the cat goddess has emerald eyes). Suggesting that Emerald has influence over how we see things, this might be strongly held beliefs that get us into trouble or physical issues with vision.
