In the Greek language, 'Megalopsychia' means 'greatness of spirit.' The word perfectly describes these special representations of the dogs and cats in our lives.
Each 'Megalopsychia Healing Pet' is hand made exclusively for World by the Tail, Inc. in our ClayPaws® studio by our own Patricia Nay. Patricia uses terra cotta clay as a representation
of the natural world to which even our domesticated animals belong. Then, in Native
American tradition, Tammy and Laurel embellish each figurine with "offerings", or medicine bundles, to enhance their healing spirit even more. Rose quartz for love, amethyst for
healing, a bit of fuzzy yarn to mimic fur, and a paw print charm to animate the indwelling
spirit of the clay.
Give a 'Megalopsychia Healing Pet' to anyone whose pet is ill or to a friend who is grieving
the loss of a beloved companion animal. Ideal for celebrating the 'greatness of spirit' that is
the human-animal bond.
Each figure is approximately 2" x 2" x 1". Each is handmade and there will be variations!
A portion of the proceeds of the sale of the 'Megalopsychia Healing Pets' will go toward
funding animal cancer and pet loss education programs.
