The Spiral Serpent: Life Force, Transformation, and Earth Memory
She winds. She coils. She sheds to renew. A guardian of mystery, a key to power.
🪔 What Is the Spiral Serpent?
The Spiral Serpent appears across Indigenous traditions as a symbol of healing, transformation, earth energy, and sacred cycles. In the Southeastern Woodlands, Mesoamerican, and Southwestern tribes, the serpent embodies the flow of life force and the sacred spiral—the journey inward and outward, above and below. The serpent teaches us to shed what no longer serves, to trust the coil of becoming, and to honor the deep power of the land. When seen in spirals, petroglyphs, or vision quests, she arrives as guide, protector, and awakening force.
