HANDCRAFTED PLANT MAGIC

to support YOU
while you take care of EVERYTHING ELSE

THE FIERCE MAGIC OF THE MERMAID'S PURSE

A mermaid’s purse is the egg case of some species of shark and skate, but they were once thought to be small bags where mermaids stashed their treasures and were said to contain all the magic of the ocean. Their hard, protective shell is symbolic of the armor necessary for protecting the soft, vulnerable, and most precious parts born within all of us. And yet, the tiny seeds they protect grow to become some of earth’s most fierce predators. They remind us that our strength and ferocity does not come into this world fully formed and ready for battle; it must be protected and nurtured in order to serve us best.
