Description:
What if the natural world spoke to us not in words but in symbol? What if there are lessons all around us showing us how to be and how to show up in the world from moment to moment? What if we paid attention to the symbols, to what nature is showing us about our lives and our character? This is the notion on which the Animal totems collection is founded. The qualities that each of the four elements represented teach us For example; The hero pattern #583, the Woodpecker represents ‘Long days time’ - the birth totem of Capri- corn with the mantra ‘I utilize’, the Raspberry represents Water - Aquarius with the message of “I change”, Red and Pink represent trust innocence and emotions. Chestnut represents protection and growth. For #584, The Eagle, Falcon or Hawk represents Libra the Fire element, and is ‘the Awakening Time’, with the mantra of ‘I balance’. For 551, Butterflies represent Leo the Air element, with the mantra of ‘I will’, grounded by the mineral tourquoise, the earth plant fern, and is cleansing time represented by the otter with the qualities of curiosity and love. For 585- Frogs represent Virgo the Water element with the mantra ‘I analize’. It is grounded by the mineral jade, and balanced by the Brown bear in ‘Blustery Winds time’. For 556-The Turtle represents Earth and Cancer is balanced by the Woodpecker its mantra is ‘I feel’ and Renewal time in the northern hemisphere of the zodiac.
