Women's Battle Rattle Uterus Red Dyed Elk Rawhide Rattle, Red Sinew, buying Otter Fur, Jasper, Herbs for Justice Courage Strength Rights, Feminist

I was inspired by the Woman's March to design this Women's Battle Rattle, but now am adding a bit more juice as the times demand. These rattles are made from Elk and measure 7 1/2" across and about 7" high, flat measure before sewing and stuffing (plus stick). Elk is associated with Will and Stamina, and brings a supportive warrior energy.

Jasper is considered a warrior's stone, bringing both inner strength and support for standing up for what you believe in. It is especially useful as a power stone for those who stand for justice and fair play, and is useful in rectifying unjust situations.

We add rosemary, both for its protective nature but also because folk wisdom declares that where rosemary grows well, the woman is in charge.

We are also adding Black Cohosh, for love, courage, protection and potency, and because it has been a traditional part of women's medicine for a very long time.

This is a very special rattle. It was made to bring in powerful women's magic for personal autonomy & protection. Women's medicine pouches were traditionally made of otter, and the otter fur decorating this rattle brings in that powerful energy.

This rattle is made from dyed elk rawhide with a willow stick. Willow is considered to be feminine in nature buying. Corn is the traditional filling for these rattles, and we add jasper, rosemary and black cohosh. I also add sage for cleansing. As well as being a great sounding, fully functional rattle, this is an individual work of art. A red suede handle can be added if desired.
