Snake skin pendant "Medusa" (brass)

Size: HxW 5.0cm/3.0cm

The snake. An animal that inspires fear and fascination in many people like no other animal on earth.

Often misunderstood, snakes are actually wonderful, fascinating animals. Their skin shimmers in the colors of the rainbow in the sunlight, especially shortly before they shed their skin; a beautiful sight.
Snakes are simply admirable in their entirety. They manage to move without any limbs at a speed that humans could only dream of. They show us that even if something seems impossible at first, it can be done with the right technique. You just have to want to do it.

Snakes never stop growing. When they have grown a little more, they shed their old skin and move on to a new stage.
The snake reminds us that we too are in a constant state of growth and that this growth would not be possible if we did not leave our old self behind.
In many cultures around the world, the snake is a symbol of power, progress, intelligence, earth and magic.
In tantric teachings, for example, the Kundalini energy lies in each of us at the end of our spine and is often depicted as a coiled snake. It is the energy that is closest to the earth and matter. Using the right techniques, it can be awakened and rise through our body like a snake, giving us strength, energy and transformation.

There are many more examples like this, spread across many cultures and the world.

One of the most famous deities associated with the snake is Medusa.
By the way, we have immortalized their energy here as a smoked praline.

What is certain, however, is that the snake is a misunderstood creature and we should become aware of the virtues of the snake. We can learn a lot from it.

For this reason, we have used a piece of snake skin (stripped snake skin) in this pendant. It comes from our own snake, Magnus, a corn snake, who has been with us every day for about 16 years and is now able to spread his wisdom to the world.
