Daruma has rich symbolism and serves as a talisman of good luck, commitment, and good fortune.
This is one of the first in the series with crystal clear spikes. The path to grow and learn sometimes needs its incubation period. Defensive Daruma sparkles and radiates but distinctly signifies a need for boundaries around its personal space. It has clear intentions of self preservation.
Set your next intention and Daruma’s presence and watchful eye will guide you to seeing your vision come to light. Learn more about the Daruma Series here.
