Dark Night of the Soul Talisman
In the darkest shadows of Winter we are met with the longest nights and coldest hour. The dance of the seasons reflect the dance our spirit goes through, moving in circles, light casting shadow. For darkness cannot exist without the light, one of the most profound lessons we each face in the heart of Winter. This past winter season the world collectively went through one of the most profound Dark Nights of the Soul. Collectively reflecting and integrating our own personal lessons through intense shadow work, self-reflection, introspection as a whole. For we cannot change what we refuse to touch. The deepest truth of our inner demons, is they are just misunderstood pieces of oursleves craving to be seen and to be loved.
The Rooted Remains Collection really reminds us of our primal essence of being human, and how human is as human does. We cannot grasp that which we do not know. Being human is a profound dance, and balancing act, embracing our spiritual essence all while honoring our human nature. We crave protection, stability, structure, and a space to feel safe.
The Dark Night of the Soul Talisman embodies the Gateway to the Underworld. The underworld being the dark shadows within our own being. The Guardian of the gate to the Underworld is the Owl, the owl is a wonderful totem to work with during the months of darkness. Being a lunar creature, it can help us navigate through our own shadows and bring us the wisdom, insight and magic needed.
This Talisman features a real mini tree found in the forests of Colorado, with an adorable (but powerful) small carved fluroite owl perched upon it's top branch. The center features a portal of Pietersite, the stone that embodies the storm.
The tree also holds various quartz points within it's branches, a faceted garnet, and a small golden quartz septer from Colorado.
The back holds a river of green tourmaline crystals, symbolizing the promise of new growth and rebirth through the darkness as spring arrives.
The chain holds faceted citrine and amethyst gemstones, and garnet. Hangs on 28 inch antiqued copper chain.
