Abalone Shell
Incorporating abalone shells into your smudging rituals allows you to embrace all four elements of nature. The shell symbolizes water, while the smoke signifies air. The unlit herbs or sticks embody earth, and once ignited, they represent fire. By weaving these elements into your smudging practice, you invite the presence of Mother Earth to be at the heart of your ceremony. It is within the sacred space she creates that true transformations and manifestations can take place.
