Celtic Amulets

The people of northern Europe (Nordic) are known above all for their great rapport and sensitivity with nature and the environment in which they lived. The Celts and more specifically the Druid religion or beliefs were based on the worship of trees and the syncretism of the gods with atmospheric phenomena. From these people we have inherited great wisdom regarding magical plants, potions and home remedies, but also a great variety of amulets, most of them based on geometry. With these geometries they decorated their clothing, swords, shields, etc...

From the Celtic and Viking culture, the most interesting legacy are the Runes and some characteristic amulets. Next we will see a series of Celtic amulets drawn as symbols.

This amulet erases programming that prevents being one with abundance. Eliminate guilt for feeling prosperous. And it reintegrates the concept that a gift requires another gift, and that one must always be compensated for what is received. This concept will seek comprehensive abundance, because material wealth without the capacity for joy results in partial abundance. In your visualization works, see how this container fills with gold and reaches the three levels of its supports that represent the physical, mental and spiritual areas of the individual.

Giving direction or direction to our lives is a challenge, we constantly confuse what is urgent with what is important. We run even though we don't know why or where we are going.

We always keep ourselves busy to justify doing something, even if that behavior makes us unproductive, because by not gratifying ourselves we are not having additional energy.
