If a hedgehog crosses your garden, it is never trivial: it is the messenger of an important change

The Hedgehog: An Ancient and Profound Symbol

Beyond its ecological value, the hedgehog holds significant symbolism. In many cultures, it is seen as a keeper of secrets, an intuitive creature capable of perceiving what others cannot.

For the Celts, it embodied self-confidence and inner peace. In ancient times, people believed that the hedgehog could be reborn from its wounds, making it a symbol of resilience and even immortality. Its spiky shell isn’t a weapon, but rather a gentle and wise protection, teaching us to defend ourselves without aggression and set boundaries without violence.

It is said that encountering a hedgehog is a message: trust your intuition, slow down, and reconnect with what truly matters.
