Ceremonial Protective Spirit doll
Soft sculpture doll, 12 x 9 x 3 1/2
This regal protective spirit has a spiral on her chest symbolizing spiral wisdom, or a connection to the spiral, cyclical rhythms of life. Her veil demonstrates her Spanish influences. The red of her clothing relates to blood, death, life force and passion and sensuality, many opposing forces. She holds paradoxes within her, opposites. Her heart pants reflect her playful side, belying the formality of the rest of her appearance.
The pouch at her waist is meant to hold a special talisman or an article that has special meaning to you. She is ceremonial and comes from a long line of ancestral wisdom. She guides you through all sorts of life passages: including womanhood, motherhood, marriage, self-fulfillment or achievement of personal goals. She is also here to help with initiations. The key that she holds represents initiation.
