The Meaning of the Nautilus Shell
The Nautilus has been around since the time of the dinosaurs. It starts as a very small shell to protect the animal inside. As the animal matures, it outgrows it’s safe chamber and into a new, slightly larger, chamber to accommodate its increased size. This continues until the animal dies. The Nautilus shell, being a sacred representation for growth and rejuvenation, forms into progressively greater chambers throughout its life. With the changes it goes through, it becomes more intricate and, in many ways, more interesting.
I believe humans go through similar stages of growth, in our career or business, and in every area of our lives. If we can accept that change will always be a part of us, maybe it won’t seem so scary and we can even begin to welcome it and the good things it can bring. If we try to hold onto a former version of ourselves, especially if we’ve outgrown the person we used to be, we may become stagnant and never realize our true potential. What else is in store for you? Let me help you to find out.
