WHY ARE SHELLS SO AMAZING?

• Shells are beautiful & jewelry made with them has a very ancient past, dating back over 100,000 years.

• They are viewed as symbols of womanhood, fertility, birth and wealth. 

• Shells are associated with the element of water & the moon, which drives the tides. Wear them to connect to your intuition & creativity. 

• Many cultures used shells as a form of currency. Cowrie shells were used in New Zealand, Africa and North America, and Native Americans used wampum as money. 

• Protection is a shell's primary purpose in nature, as it is made to keep small, defenseless sea creatures safe from harm. Because of this, shells have strong protective energies.
