Spirit Animal 1.25-inch Wolf Dolomite

A wolf carved in dolomite. The alpha wolf, the one who dominates a pack by force, was an artefact of studying unrelated captive animals. A wild pack is a family, a breeding pair and their young, and it runs on relationship rather than rank.

That makes the wolf the animal of loyalty and instinct rather than of dominance. Keep it for work about the people you have chosen, for a household that needs to pull together, or simply for trusting the thing your gut said first.

How to Use It

Small carvings work best when they are somewhere you actually pass. On a desk, in a coat pocket, on the windowsill above the sink. Pick it up when you want the reminder and put it down when you do not. If you keep an altar, it can hold the animal's corner of it, and it travels well in a pouch if you are working away from home.

Good to Know

Carved by hand from dolomite, roughly 1.25 inches. Every piece is worked from natural stone, so color, veining and the exact set of the features shift from one to the next and yours will not be identical to the photo. Dolomite is a soft stone. Keep it off the edge of a hard surface and wipe it with a dry cloth rather than washing it.

Pair It With

The rest of the shelf is carved from the same stone, so they sit together without anything clashing: Bear Spirit Animal and Scorpion Spirit Animal. Give it a proper seat with the Goddess Sphere Stand or set it beside a lit chime candle in the white ceramic holder. More carved pieces in crystal carvings.
