Abalone shells have carried spiritual meaning and special significance for cultures around the world for thousands of years. They carry energies that promote protection, healing and emotional balance. As a water symbol, they’re believed to promote calm and tranquility, wash away unpleasantness and shield us from darkness. The soothing energy helps to encourage compassion and enable us to view situations from a new and more understanding perspective.
Abalone shells are commonly used in cleansing rituals to catch the ash and embers from the smudge stick. When used in combination with white sage, they can promote feelings of purity and deepen the spiritual cleanse.
The shells are linked to the third eye, crown and heart chakras. They can stimulate psychic development like intuition and help to clarify mind and emotions. This helps to promote interaction and cooperation with those around you and strengthen and open up relationships.
