Embrace the many sides of the divine feminine with this magickal, adjustable necklace.
We fell for these Silver Sheen Obsidian Nine-Tailed Fox Necklaces when we spotted them at the Tucson Gem Show. It features a carved fox face and hangs on an adjustable cord, making it the perfect addition to your magickal jewelry collection.
The Nine-Tailed Fox, or Kitsune, is one of Japanese folklore's most interesting shapeshifters: a fox spirit ascribed intelligence and magickal power, especially the long-living ones. A fox only earns its extra tails after a century of living, and one, five, seven, and nine are the tail counts that show up again and again in the old stories.
Nine tails mark the oldest, most potent version of the creature, tied straight back to the golden-furred fox of Chinese legend. The most infamous of these vixens is Tamamo no Mae, said to be the same shapeshifting fox spirit who brought down the Yin/Shang dynasty in China roughly two thousand years earlier, before resurfacing in Japan to bewitch an emperor.
Kitsune aren't just tricksters, either. They're wrapped up in the worship of Inari, the Shinto deity of rice, serving as messengers and guardian figures believed to ward off evil. Beauty, danger, longevity, and shapeshifting power all coil together in one tail after another. It's easy to see why she's become shorthand for the kind of magick that's ancient, feminine, and not remotely safe.
Sheen Obsidian forms from volcanic lava and is a type of glass that casts either a gold sheen or silver sheen. It is a very powerful crystal that absorbs negativity, grounds you, and gives protection. Silver Sheen Obsidian is a highly protective stone, helping to connect your Root Chakra to your Third Eye Chakra for spiritual protection as you meditate, perform divination, or travel between worlds. It's a beautiful stone for scrying, as it also helps activate your psychic abilities and intuition.
Each order is for 1 Silver Sheen Obsidian Nine-Tail Fox Necklace, with a pendant measuring 1.5" x 1.75" and weighing 2 ounces. It comes on an adjustable cord necklace.
