Necklace Girlfriend Goddesses® Spirit Guide

I sculpt each one of my Girlfriend Goddesses by hand and each has its own personality. The figures are inspired by the early “Venus” figures that were found in archaeological digs dating from the Ice Age 25,000 years ago.
The most famous of these figures being the Venus of Willendorf found in Austria.

The early figures were described as fertility symbols, but their actual meanings are lost to us. The image of the Goddesses transcends all races and ethnic groups. They celebrate the Primal Mother who gave birth to the first human beings.

Women are the rocks and foundations of life. They are creators of new life, children, nurturer, caregivers, parents, lovers, artists, healers, warriors, hunters and gatherers. Girlfriend Goddesses are great for all stages of life. Girlfriends are always there for you.

Wear this charm and you will never be alone, you will always have a friend near you!
