Snake symbol. Sterling silver 925 pendant

The snake is one of the most important ancient symbols, surprisingly combining a huge number of conflicting meanings. Many primitive peoples, who revered this extraordinary mysterious creature, completely unlike any other terrestrial animal, and revered the snake as their ancient progenitor, made it the most powerful symbol of life and magical power, wisdom and divination, earth and fertility, patronage and protection, healing and renewal. Other peoples of antiquity, who experienced a panic fear of slippery, hissing poisonous reptiles, saw in them a frightening embodiment of danger and threat, the personification of darkness, chaos and death.
