Turquoise heals the spirit with soothing energy and provides peace of mind.  It holds both spiritual and protective properties and balances the male and female aspects of one's character.
Amber is a powerful healer that gives the wearer a lovely sense of health and healing.  Amber helps to balance the emotions, clear the mind and release negative energy.
Wood - a symbol of intelligence and wisdom and wood is considered to be symbols of longevity and knowledge.
The fish appears in many biblican stories ... for example:  the fish that swallowed Jonah is believed to symbolize Christ's incarceration in the tomb.  The story of Tobias, who survives an attack by a large fish and then uses the gall of the fish to restore his blind father's sight, bymbolizes God's blessings.
"I will make you fishers of men."  (St. Mark 1: 16-18)
 
To Christians, the lily flower was a symbol of the Holy Trinity, as well as an emblem of the Virgin Mary.  
Early Christians often had a dove on their tombs, as a symbol of the peace and happiness of the soul.
