Salmon Spirit Pin

Salmon Spirit Pin/Brooch

Silver Jewelry, 2" x 2"

This Salmon Spirit pin is created as a mandala or prayer wheel that symbolizes the life cycle. Find the symbol for genesis on the top fish's pectoral fin, then follow the maze (the mystery of its return) that ends in a pool of eggs. The Chinese symbol for homecoming rests on his tail. Continue counterclockwise to the second fish--inset in his body are ancient symbols for water and power. On the top of its tail fin one finds the symbol for strength, while the three holes stand for the spirit of life. The third salmon completes the circle with the figure eight-like image.

I designed these animal spirit pieces to honor the creatures that inhabit my adopted state, Alaska. The animals that call Alaska home have to endure all the seasonal changes from the sub-zero temperatures of our winters to the frenetic activity of our 24hr summer days.
