Cowrie Shells: Sacred Symbols of Protection and Prosperity
Cowrie shells have long been revered for their connection to wealth, protection, and the ocean’s energy. These beautiful shells are sacred to Yemayá, the powerful Orisha of the sea, and many other water deities. I love using them in my own practice for attracting abundance and shielding against negativity.
Magical Use: Keep cowrie shells on your altar to call in prosperity, or carry one as a protective charm to ward off negative energy. You can also use in fertility magic and as a repellent to the evil eye.
