It is a stunning natural gem made of calcium carbonate and have brown and black bands that are carved into the shape of the eye. Shiva shells are found in the South Seas north of Australia, Thailand, and Indonesia. This uniquely swirling shell is actually the protective door at the opening of a Turban snail’s shell, which detaches at the end of the snail’s natural life. Serving as a protective covering to the softness within the snail, it is symbolically also considered a doorway into the unconscious, opening to reveal the full power of the Third Eye chakra. Shiva shells are filled with lore and fun symbology, like their known as mermaids' money and it is thought to be a good luck charm for fishermen. The eye of Shiva is supposed to assist in the accrual of wealth. Since they have come from the sea, they have an ocean-like soothing and serene vibe that brings peace of mind and relaxation. The Spiral shape has significance too as it represents the Golden Ratio.
History and Lore
The Shive Eye is named after a Hindu God, Shiva A.K.A, Mahadeva (Love). It is genuinely believed that the existence of Shiva is beyond a moment in time and space. As a Supreme Spirit in Shivaism, Shiva is still one of the major traditions within Hinduism to this day. It was believed in India that there was a god of lust and a god of love. During this time, the story explains that Shiva (God of Love) became disturbed by Kamadeva (God of Lust) and so he opened his Third Eye (fierce and fiery eye) and charred Kamadeva (God of Lust) to ashes for shooting an arrow at his heart. It is a firm belief that it is a “trap door” to the Gods Third Eye found in many Hindu legends of the God. In the buddhist tradition, the shell is often used in ceremonial practices, such as for trumpets and other musical instruments, and is believed to promote spiritual awakening and enlightenment.
At the heart of the Shiva Shell is a naturally occurring spiral that symbolizes the cycles of life, death, and rebirth that we all experience. This spiral is a stunning example of the Fibonacci sequence and sacred geometry, reflecting the order and harmony found in nature.
Composition and Formation
This species is known as Turbinidae, and when it is preyed upon, it withdraws into its shell and turns its ‘eye’ toward the attacker in the hope of warding it off. When these snails near the end of their natural life, the protective eye drops away to the sea bed and becomes what is known as the Shiva Eye shell.
These little lovelies wash up upon the shore where locals and craftsmen pick them up. Generally they are about a 1 to 1-1/2 inch round, saucer shape, but lots of artistic craftsman in Thailand cut them into little hearts.
