Frog

A symbol of prosperity, wealth, and good luck. In Tsimshian culture, the Frog is known as the communicator between Earth and mankind. Their song carries divine power and magic; it represents Spring and the abundance to come. The Haida carved frogs on their house posts to keep them from falling over. When the frog is shown sticking out its tongue and touching another creature, it portrays the sharing of knowledge and power.

Eagle

A symbol of power, prestige and wisdom. The Eagle is believed to have the greatest connection to the creator and sends messages from the people to the spiritual world. It is a symbol of peace and leadership, the sacred down represents friendship and its feathers are used for ceremonies and rituals.

Opal

In ancient Greece they believed Opals gave foresight and prophecy, and Romans used it as a token of purity and hope. Opals promote a sense of calm and security, allowing the wearer to de-stress, encouraging you to stop brooding and to better direct your thoughts. A karmic stone that teaches you what you put out in the world returns to you. It helps you to release anger and find self worth; bringing loyalty, faithfulness and spontaneity to its wearer. October Birthstone.
