BOYOYO for sure! The world of rocks & minerals is the repository of our memories according to the Dagara people of Burkina Faso.

We are left with our own perceptions. Boyoyos teach us when we know how to shut up, look & listen. This one has seen it all! As such, he has taken on kingly qualities.

RAINBOW SALMON
Salmon is an animal that must struggle against an uphill (or rather upstream) path laden with torrents, rocks, predators and energy forces which are running in the opposite direction! As such it is an animal with great spirit. This natural fetish encourages will power, persistence and natural love because Salmon is going up stream to find his love. Like the salmon this fetish has a slight iridescence which is the rainbow made flesh. 1.75″ long, base is 3″. The base has the sign of the thunderbolt or lightning on the back which energizes change and breaks impasse.
WANDERING STAR
The meander is a vector which is in no great hurry. There is a forward thrust of energy but it turns this way & then again. It is similar to a snake’s movements or streams & rivers which turn & switchback many times in their traverse. The star is a geometric impression of a perfectly balanced spiral which has 5 stress points in its twist. This particular star in the center of its sandstone pedestal has a slightly longer top point indicating that it is moving rather than stationary. The meander is also in movement so the charm confirms itself & it becomes a Wandering Star seeking expression in many venues. A nice charm for Taoists.
