The sphere is a symbol of the universe. It has no beginning and no end, no top and no bottom. The sphere embodies absolute harmony and stands for peace, balance and spiritual wholeness. Representations of the sphere appear in many variations throughout the cultural history of mankind - from the orb as a symbol of worldly power to the symbol of the sphere in the tarot as a sign of unity.

The terms "calchedon" and "carchedon" are first used by Pliny the Elder in his Latin Naturalis Historia in the 1st century AD.

Over "intermediate stages" like Calcedon, Calzedon, Chalzedon or Kalcedon the name changed to the today common Chalcedon.
