Description

Stemming from her role in the legendary myth of Osiris, Isis, much like the sign of Cancer, embodies the Great Mother archetype,
ruling over healing, protection and the memory body. As Isis “re-members” Osiris’ dis-membered body back to life in an effort to save Egypt from his brother Seth’s tyrannical reign, she reminds us that we too may choose what to re-member…

Our memories give our lives meaning. They form our identities. They link our past, present and future together in a woven tapestry of time. It is easy to be a victim to memory. But as soon as we see that memory is malleable, that it is able to be perceived through new lenses, we create an opening for our own self empowerment. All it takes is a willingness to turn the gaze inward and reflect on them a little more deeply…

Readily known as a solar goddess through her
connection to the eye of Ra, she is also known as “Stella Maris”, latin for “Star of the sea”, making her deeply tied to the Moon and tides as well. This beautifully reflects the way that Cancer season begins when the Sun reaches it’s apex at the Summer Solstice, but is also ruled by the Moon and can be found in the reflective shores of the ocean.

This visual talisman is intended to invoke the
spirit of Isis and Cancer, promoting the ability to remember the lost bits and pieces of ourselves so that we may recombine them into the most powerful essence of who we truly are.
