Guatemalan Skull Worry Dolls
$7.95These handmade Guatemalan Skull Worry Dolls capture the spirit of El Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), a vibrant celebration where Guatemalans honour and remember loved ones who have passed. While the skull worry dolls may seem macabre at first glance, they are powerful symbols—reminding us of those we've lost and representing the enduring cycle of life and death. According to Maya belief, life and death form an unending cycle. As the body returns to the earth, the soul journeys for four to five years to Xibalba, the underworld. Eventually, the spirit returns to the world through the first breath of a newborn, beginning life anew. Traditional stories tell that the Mayan people of Guatemala would confide their worries to these small dolls, placing them under their pillows before sleep. By morning, the dolls were believed to have carried away their troubles. For anyone seeking comfort or a gentle way to share their thoughts and worries, this worry doll provides quiet companionship and reassurance. Whether attracted by the unique design or the meaningful tradition of honouring ancestors, this Guatemalan doll makes a thoughtful and heartfelt companion. Each Skull Worry Doll comes on a display card and is randomly selected.

Howlite Owl Beads
$1.65Owls are widely regarded as symbols of wisdom, intuition, and transformation. Their nocturnal habits and extraordinary vision have led many to see them as messengers from the spirit world, able to perceive what is hidden and see through darkness and deception to uncover truths. While not a standard ritual tool like an athame or chalice, owl beads may serve as powerful conduits for practitioners who identify the owl as their totem or spirit guide. Wearing or holding these beads acts as a tangible link to the animal's energy. As altar adornments, owl-themed artefacts are frequently placed to honour lunar power and the element of Air, especially during Samhain when the "veil" between worlds is thinnest. Crafted into jewellery, they become personal talismans, amplifying intuition, providing protection as night guardians, and offering wisdom during pivotal life transitions. Carved from Howlite gemstone and measuring 3cm in height, 2cm in width, and 0.4cm in depth, these owl beads are available in eight distinct colours and are the perfect companion for your practitioner's needs. Sold individually, please select your preferred colour from the options below. COLOURS: Blue – Green – Orange – Pink – Purple – Red – White – Yellow

Howlite Skull Beads
$0.65Skull beads serve as powerful symbolic tools that represent the cycle of life, death, and rebirth, often serving as a focal point for ancestor veneration and protection rituals. While some traditionalists view them primarily as a seasonal decoration for Samhain, many eclectic practitioners incorporate them year-round to honour the "Horned God" or deities associated with the underworld. Like full skulls, beads are used in apotropaic magick to ward off negative influences or evil spirits. They are often placed at thresholds, such as doors or windows, to act as a "warning" energy that deters unwanted energy. The skull and howlite combination offer calming and introspective properties. Carved from Howlite gemstone and measuring 1.3cm in height, 1cm in width, and 1.2cm in depth (on average), these skull beads are available in eight distinct colours and are the perfect companion for your practitioner's needs. Sold individually, please select your preferred colour from the options below. COLOURS: Blue – Green – Orange – Pink – Purple – Red – White – Yellow
