Recently, I had a conversation about the protection symbol that one of our customers requested.
I put together a personalised symbol for her, and bringing it through was certainly an interesting experience. Her higher self told me a whole lot about it, about how long it had taken her to make it and gave me other contextual information about what I would need to know in order to bring it through for her accurately.
I worked with her team and her higher self for a few hours, bringing through the symbol - two actually - one for the front of the garment and one for the back. The one on the back came through as quite an incredibly complex symbol - probably part of why it took so long to do!
Anyway - the interesting bit of this story that is worth noting to you is in a conversation I had with her about her experiences with it.
She shared with me that she felt a strong field of protection around it and it felt great to wear. She also shared that she'd hardly taken it off (and subsequently bought them in two more colours lol). But here's the really interesting part...
She was receiving a healing. Quite attuned to energy and energetic work - both giving and receiving healings - she was surprised to find that she wasn't really 'feeling' anything. She wasn't sure what was contributing to this as it seemed strange to her. Then she thought - it's the symbol! So, she connected in with her symbol as a way of connecting in with the protection itself.
She had a chat to the protection and essentially asked it to still allow her to feel what's going on while keeping her protected... and instantly things changed!
So - it's worth noting, that whatever symbol you have on your garment, you will be able to 'speak' to it, tell it what you want. If it can, it will be able to help with / do what it is you're looking for (providing it's for the highest good). Many of the symbols do a wide range of things - beyond the scope of what is written about them, but with some connecting in you will be able to best work with yours for optimal results.
This goes for the protection symbols sure, but also for others too! For instance I know that the one for reducing menstrual pains for women can also help men who have had past lives as women and lost children with healing from that trauma. So... go with your gut! If it feels right, it probably is.
With love.
Have fun and enjoy.
