“This design depicts salmons, with an asymmetrical moon face, inspired by a spindle whorl artifact. Margaret says that salmon, like all animal medicine have a spiritual meaning and some of the main themes you can find with salmon medicine is abundance, fertility, prosperity and renewal. Traditionally, Coast Salish spindle whorls are used by women, and their ability to produce beautiful textiles which had social and spiritual significance. The disc like shape would be designed with unique designs for which was to give the wool spinner a trance like experience for healing and transformation. Today, weaving continues to be a vibrant expression of cultural identity. Salish weavers consist of self-identified women, two-spirit people, and trans people.”
