The massive ends of the torc press certain meridian points on the body, which has a psycho-somatic effect.    ● Formally, the C-shaped form of the torc is a stylized Moon-crescent. This is a symbol of female energy and its aspects: intuition, metamorphosis, emotion, creation, transformation ...

... and do  the  Amazons  of  today  play  the viola?
