(Concept Sketch Copper Woman)

Copper Woman is Card #21, her keyword is “Innocence”

I pulled her for a Goddess Reading today..here it is:

Copper Woman was the first woman who created the people of the Pacific Northwest. Her skeleton was created from shells and minerals from rocks. The saltwater from the ocean was made into her blood and soil from the earth was made to cover her skeleton. After her organs were added and she was given her senses of touch, taste, smell, sight and hearing. The Creator then pushed the wind into her lungs and Copper Woman was born.

She was, however, the only one on earth and therefore very lonely. She cried from her loneliness and she was told that because of this she was learning to accept that she was human and to accept her mortality. She was told by the spirits to save her tears, her mucus, her moon blood and other secretions as these were a sign of her humanness. She was to place them in a crab shell and save them.
