Spirit Totem - Kraken Octopus Medicine
• Ancient symbol of knowledge
• Ability to overcome obstacles with intelligent solutions
• Will power and focus
• Master of multitasking
• Versatility, flexibility and psychic intuition
Octopus is a reasoning being; they have sound memories and logical aptitude. Thus, Octopus represents mastering our minds and honing our cognitive skill, so it becomes a fine tool for daily use. Many spiritual seekers rely heavily on sensitivity vs. logic, but Octopus reminds us that both have a place on our Path.
Additionally, Octopus is a master of camouflage. Octopus can teach us much about shape-shifting and the ever-unfolding creative forces of the Universe too.
Octopus looks at circumstances, adapts, flexes and then finds a strategic way to fix things or make them better.
To humans, Octopus may seem mysterious. As a sea creature, this Animal Spirit touches our deep emotions in unanticipated ways. She shows us our potential and supports our ability to reason things out. If Octopus walked on land, it would be a life-long student of energetic realms and the ancient mysteries.

Holster features
Our holsters are created from the softest luxury quality fully dyed leathers. This ‘Spirit Totem’ has been made with genuine sheep and goat hides. We hand select each hide in small batches, meticulously scanning the surfaces to ensure the most beautiful and flawless finished pieces are utilised. Every holster is handcrafted with a base backing material to add strength and provide shaping, but also maintain the supple softness of goat/sheep which is thinner than cow hides.
Our technique of reverse appliqué, and the 3D embossed DNA spiral motif, creates an unparalleled level of sophistication in our holsters. We strive to meld function with timeless style to compliment your unique presence. The ‘Sacred G’ inserts combine into the overall aesthetic to super charge the vibrational field of these pieces.
All zippers are genuine YKK brass with the addition of custom casted pulls. We also have custom casted the grommet, sacred G inlays, filigree and half moon rings, all exclusively hand made for each and every holster we create.
The pockets are all fully lined with soft satin or cotton fabrics to protect your belongings. There are three small stash pockets and a total of five zippered pockets on each holster set. Two of the inner zippered pockets will fit a passport perfectly. The central back panel offers the convenience of a hidden pocket for discretely concealing any small items.
The unique custom brass grommets and half-moon (D) rings with lotus motif are to serve the purpose of being able to attach additional clips and chains to your harness to allow a more secure fit if you choose, the options are plentiful for hanging more amulets and embellishing to your individual taste.
We have also added the powerful Vajra symbol in luxurious embroidery directly into the leather on the backside panel of the pockets. This ancient symbol represents many things, such as indestructibility, and the nature of reality. Featured predominantly in Hinduism and Buddhism it translated as the ‘Thunderbolt’ or ‘Diamond’. A diamond is spotlessly pure and indestructible. As such, the word vajra sometimes signifies enlightenment, or the absolute reality of shunyata, “emptiness.”
Production process
Idol Wares' production process begins with hand-carving horn by a skilled 'master' named Made in a Balinese village.
Finest post-consumer water buffalo horns are selected, and only one Totem amulet is made from each horn, the remaining horn is use for other carvings to minimize waste.
Carvings are made to order, ensuring uniqueness and personalized touch for each product.
Water buffalo play a vital role in Southeast Asian agriculture and provide the strong horn material for intricate carving.
Skilled tailors from three main families assemble the holsters, with meticulous cutting, braiding, and stitching.
Idol Wares' team works from home with flexible hours, fostering a positive work environment.
Fairly negotiated work contracts ensure sustainable relationships, our workers set their own hours, not factory sweat-shop conditions. They receive substantially higher pay than the local median and have set their own requested contract terms in agreement with Idol Wares.
Purchasing from Idol Wares directly supports talented artisans born into less fortunate circumstances.
Each purchase represents a blend of artistic expression and ethical craftsmanship for discerning customers
