Ouray Merman Mala 🌙⛰️
San Juan Mountain Towns
A DarcMoon piece inspired by Mermaids and the Cursed Valley
Beneath the stars and moonlit peaks of the San Juans, the Ouray Merman rests in sacred hot springs — the only one who moves through the night. He carries the wisdom and quiet strength of Chief Ouray, whose spirit still flows through these waters. The crescent moon pendant reflects transformation and balance, honoring the cycle of release, renewal, and peace. This mala guides the wearer in endurance, reflection, and the quiet power of transformation.
San Juan Meditation: "Let the water soften what aches. Let the stones teach endurance, courage, and renewal."
