Sophia as translated from the Greek language means wisdom. Honored as a
Goddess of wisdom within the Neopagan and New Age movements, as well as
within feminist-inspired Goddess spirituality Sophia actually transcends
many ancient spiritual and religious practices. In Orthodox and Roman
Catholic Christianity Sophia, or rather Hagia Sophia, Holy Wisdom is an
expression of understanding of the Holy Spirit, but in no way in terms
of pagan goddess worship. For the studied ancient Greeks the word
Philosophy is formed from the two words philo-sophia, the love of
wisdom. For us the concept of wisdom is by no means exclusive to a
singular practice. Wisdom comes from learning all that comes in our
consciousness and processing it to form sound decisions and practices.
We believe that sustainable business is wisdom in action. Making choices
to use recycled materials in our product and to produce our socks
domestically comes from our beliefs that we can change the world bit by
bit by supporting our economy and protecting our natural resources. We
gave the name of Sophia to this over the knee sock, to honor the
inherent wisdom in all of us. As customers we honor your wisdom in
understanding and acknowledging our business practices. We are grateful
for your excitement and positive energy you share with us in supporting
our vision of business in 21st Century America.
The colors in the Sophia Striped Over the Knee Sock come from an ancient
piece of art by Saint Hildegard of Bingen. Soft pinks and yellows are
grounded with a earthen taupe. This piece of art can be seen here.
Now that we have shared our story of Sophia with you. You can buy the
sock inspired by her at a $5 discount. That's right for the next 8 days
