Ocean Jasper Snail Carving~CROJSNAL

Ocean Jasper Snail Carving~CROJSNAL. Snail has an impressive history as a symbol throughout the world for fertility, slow and determined movement, life’s progress, and the sacred space of the home. Much of this meaning begins with the Snail’s shell. A Snail’s shell is its mobile house and security system. Inside this haven, the Snail’s soft body has protection. Otherwise, it would have no defenses against the environment let alone any predators. Snails carry their shell throughout life, giving them associations with travel, shelter, security, adaptation, and autonomy. We see reverence toward the Snail’s shell in a variety of cultures because it’s an entrancing spiral. In Egypt, the Spiral represented spiritual and conscious expansion. Aztec art depicts the Moon God, Tēcciztēcatl, as living comfortably within a snail’s shell, providing Snail with ties to lunar, cyclic, and transitional energy. Old European observations of the Snail’s horns appearing outside their shell after rain created beliefs of Snail having some power over the weather (or weather awareness) and crop fertility. For those of you with Gypsy feet, Snail Spirit is a perfect companion. No matter where Snail goes there is a comfortable roof overhead. Ocean jasper is the stone of joy, accentuating the many blessings of life. It is said to decrease stress and assist those feeling “burned-out”. It draws it's soothing power from the element of Water. It is a stone of strength and renewal with a slow, steady frequency and a deep circular energy that embodies the interconnectedness of all things. Its spherical patterns are a spiritual reminder of how thoughts, words and actions interact in our world and flow in a circular direction. It honors the principle that what one sends out will indeed return. Ocean Jasper is a marvelous stone for cultivating patience and coping with change. It stimulates one to act and speak more positively. It is a stone of mindful expansion, it brings one’s consciousness to the present moment (it is a gift, that’s why its called “the present”). It is said to open one up and make one more receptive to healing work (alternative healing, therapy etc.). It is known as the “supreme nurturer”, and can remind one of the sea of love one exists in.
