A powerful symbol of transformation and renewal, snake shed has been used in spiritual practices for centuries. This ethically sourced boa constrictor skin comes from a trusted local maker who specializes in working with reptiles and insects. Each piece is naturally shed, never harmed, and carefully prepared for ritual use.
Snake shed is often used in:
-
Transformation rituals: shedding old habits, patterns, or energy
-
Protection work: creating strong spiritual boundaries
-
Growth and renewal: inviting fresh beginnings and personal evolution
-
Spell jars, sachets, or altar work: as a symbolic ingredient of rebirth and change
In deity work, snake shed is also associated with Hekate (as a guardian of transitions and mysteries) and Odin (as a seeker of wisdom and initiation). Offering or incorporating it into rituals can honour their transformative, guiding energies.
Intent matters: While snake shed carries powerful energy that some may use in banishing or shadow work, The Hermit’s Path does not promote harm, hexing, or curses. We encourage its use for healing, protection, and growth.... but we're not gonna tell you how to live your life, haha!
Each bag contains approximately 18" worth of boa constrictor shed (roughly half the snake) in a clear 2.5" x 4" bag - a small but potent addition to your magical toolkit. It may not always come as one piece, but certainly try! They're from local snakes that I have direct connection with! The snake shed from the photo is Princess Pickles. :)
For ritual use only. Not for consumption.
