Beautiful sea shells have healing properties, just like our jewel quality healing crystals. Seashells offer another level to self-healing practices. With their birthplace being the salty sea, each shell has been grown following a pattern of sacred geometry. In fact, geometry is an integral part of their make-up. And the creatures who live in these shells have long been recognized for their amazing power in the ocean. Collecting the shells from creatures who have died, or sized up to larger shells, ancient tribes around the world used them as amulets, protectors from negative energies, and as tools to stimulate intuition and spiritual connection. Almost every island or coastal tribal culture has incorporated sea shells into their most sacred jewelry, garments, and healing medicine tools. Because of the Moon’s influence on the ocean, sea shells hold the energy of the Moon. Many shells, particularly sea snails and the nautilus, form on a spiral, a powerful symbol of the Pagan Great Mother Goddess. Shells have been used for centuries by many ancient, and modern day tribes, for a number of purposes – healing, protection, spell work, self-love practice, currency, and spiritual & psychic awareness and growth/enhancement to name a few. For example, sea shells can contain and enhance Reiki with their shape, size, and structure, allowing a gentle but powerful healing energy that works with the healer to cleanse, balance and harmonize the aura and chakras. Specific types of sea shells, just like like healing crystals, have specific healing properties. Abalone, for example, is commonly used to contain herbs and crystals, worn and used as a protection amulet to assist with general energetic protection and to ease feelings of anger, depression, fear, and sadness. Abalone has also been used to attract inspiration and creativity to those who carry it, wear it or even meditate with it. Here are some of the properties we know of. You can also do a little more research into specific cultures to learn how they use seashell energy. There are very many types of sea shells from all over the world, but here are a few of the shells that I was taught the metaphysical meanings of. Abalone Shell – communication, peace and beauty (self-love).Starfish -Guidance and inspiration. When you are at a crossroads, you can find the answers that you need from the meaning of the starfish. It symbolizes regeneration, renewal, and self-sustainability. It also represents infinite divine love. It is commonly used to represent Virgin Mary as Star of the Sea, guide and protector to those who are traveling in troubled waters.Clams, Muscles & Oysters – Purification, love and good fortune. Small ones are given as talismans (or tokens) of love.Mother of Pearl (any shell with this surface) – Traditionally used to heighten intuition, psychic sensitivity and imagination (much like the shell of the Abalone), more modern uses include attracting prosperity, protection from negative energy and transmutation of negative energy. Mother of Pearl is helpful when treating high blood pressure, improving vision and accelarating wound healing (post-op or general).Cone Shells – Traditionally used for protection. Personally, I use them to channel and direct energy (think single terminated quart points) in Reiki, Crystal healing sessions and in crystal grids.Sand Dollar – My personal favourite!! If you’ve ever held a sand dollar shell in your hand, you’ll notice how fragile its shell is, yet how strong its vibration is. Sand dollars hold the wisdom and information that we need in order to make necessary changes for healing, growth, spiritual expansion and transendence. The shell is formed around the 5-pointed star of sacred geometry, which teaches us; to be gentle in our approach in life regardless of environmental conditions, to go with the flow and be flexible in our thinking and to work on changing belief systems that are detrimental to us, replacing them with new healthy belief systems without blaming ourselves or others. When we have faith we connect with the strength within and anything is possible. Cowrie Shells – Used to manifest prosperity and abundance, particularly finanacial. According to African legend, if you are attracted to cowrie shells you could be family to an ocean spirit of wealth and earth. It has also been said that Cowrie shells hold Goddess protection which is very powerful and connected with the strength of the ocean. Throughout Africa, and South and North America, the cowrie symbolized the power of destiny and prosperity, and is still believed to teach stories of humility and respect to all those who possess them.Limpet Shells – Courage, confidence, physical strength.Moon Shells – Psychic awareness, purification, and peace.Whelk Shells – Use for making dramatic, positive changes in your life.Olive Shells – Cleansing and healing. Form your own relationships with your sea shells, as you would your healing crystals, and use your intuition to see how they ‘speak’ to you. Here is a simple way you can connect with your sea shells:Cleanse and charge your sea shells the way you would your crystalsHold one shell (one type) in your left hand, your receiving hand, close your eyes, take a few deep breaths to relax (you can meditate before hand and set your intention to energeticall connect with your shells, or you can fall into a semi-meditative state, either method have worked for me in the past, but do what feels right for you)With your eyes closed, and shell gently placed in your left hand, notice any of the below sensations;~ How does your body feel physically, do you feel any sensations in a particular area or part of your body?~ Does the shell elicit any sensations in your subtle bodies, perhaps a particular chakra?~ Does the shell elicit any particular thoughts or visions?~ Does the shell bring up any particular memories, or emotions?~ How does the shell make you feel overall – safe, insecure, calm, lucky, energised, etc?Noticing these kinds of sensations will give you some insight into how that particular shell can, or wants to, work with you.
