The Freyja Necklaces were inspired by a very shocking discovery. Years ago, a friend of mine brought me a cat and dog skull that he had found. When I asked where he found them, he told me about a spot in some light woods behind a pet shelter. He had stumbled into an area that quite a few people knew about. I had him take me there. I was floored friends! It was a large pile and several smaller piles of bones. Mostly, skulls in the piles, with the smaller bones spread about the area. One of the piles was up to my kneecaps! I walked over and realized they were almost strictly dogs and cats! I found a raccoon in the bunch but most domesticated pets. I was floored! My friend told me that the shelter used to dump bodies back there, and a lot of people knew about it. He said many people returned to the spot to collect them and give them love in the afterlife. I was really taken aback. We did what we could to blanket the area with love, and I invited any dog or cat spirit to come home with me if they wanted.
I was inspired by sorrow to draw the design of this necklace that evening. When I would send this necklace off, I asked a few guardian spirits to go home and be loved by their new mom or dad. Animal companion spirits are pure. They just want to love us. I want better for those beauties. I hate to think about their lives without someone to care for them and someone to care for back. They are here to teach us kindness, humility, and love. We must take care of them. Like each release, a percentage of the sales will be donated to a few no-kill shelters.
This necklace really took a lot out of me emotionally but reminded me of a lot of good things too. It raised a ton of awareness for furbabies and funds that helped in their aid. Please remember that animals are fellow Earthlings. We must do all we can for them. They are showing us the way to our higher self.
