How to choose jewelry that represents your spirit animal (guide or totem)

Animal spirits, whether guides or totems , are powerful symbols that accompany us throughout life. Wearing jewelry that represents them isn't just an aesthetic gesture, but a way to strengthen our spiritual connection with them: a way to carry their "medicine" or teachings with us every day.

Here's a guide to choosing the right piece of jewelry for you.

1. Discover your animal spirits

To know which animals accompany you, you need to turn to your intuition and take a shamanic journey, especially if you are looking for your totem animal .

You can undertake the shamanic journey alone, if you have experience, or ask a trusted and competent person to do it for you or guide you in the practice.

To put it very simply: the animal spirit can be an active guide , which supports you in specific periods, or a totem , a symbol of your inner qualities, expressed or yet to be expressed.

2. Choose the symbols for the jewel

Your spirit animal can be represented in several ways:

• "Realistic" shapes: the shape of the animal, only slightly stylised, to make it immediately clear at a glance;

• Symbols or plant elements that recall its energy: for those seeking a more symbolic and discreet approach;

• Natural Stones: Some gems can be associated with the animal's energy, strengthening the spiritual connection.

3. Choose the metal

In my jewelry I use brass and/or 925 silver , metals that, in addition to being durable, have a vibration suited to spirituality and protection.

• Brass provides grounding and warmth. You'll need to clean it more frequently than 925 silver, and it draws in sunlight.

• 925 silver is traditionally associated with purity and spiritual protection. It requires slightly less frequent cleaning and evokes moonlight.

4. Style and shape of the jewel

The jewelry should reflect your style and the way you want to carry your spirit animal with you:

• Do you wear more necklaces, bracelets, rings or other items ?

• Should it be an everyday jewel or a special amulet for rituals and meditations?

• Do you prefer a minimal or elaborate style? Choose what makes you feel most in tune with yourself.

5. Any personalized engravings

To make your amulet-jewel even more special and meaningful, you can ask me to engrave words, phrases or numbers on it for you.

For example: the name of the animal, a mantra, a symbolic number or an important date.

The primary function of an amulet of this type is to protect you, creating a direct bridge between you and your spirit animal .
