The ancient female carvings called Sheela Na Gigs or Sheelas are enigmatic indeed. Theories are they're protection or fertility symbols, that their magic helps women in childbirth or if you're within a building on which a Sheela is carved, you are considered within the protective embrace of the Goddess. This and other aspects of the Sheelas are discussed in this short series about women reclaiming their agency via the power of female genitalia and sacred life giving. Check out my Sacred Places of Goddess book herehttps://www.karentate.net/post/sacred-places-of-goddess for more information about Sheelas and other sacred places of Goddess around the world or to drive your own domestic or international sacred tour.
