Larvae
Larvae are the spirits of the Roman dead. They have been believed to be malevolent ghosts who enjoy harming and scaring humans; though they are incapable of actually causing physical harm. They have been likened to Lemures in the past. Larva means “mask” and they may have been celebrated or invoked during masking rituals. The Lemuria festival is a nine day celebration held in May to appease the Larvae.
As spirit companions they are exceedingly cunning. They represent the restless spirits who constantly seek attention. They will give you a powerful tether to the Spiritual Realm and can provide you vivid & magnetic visions of the world of spirits beyond the veil. They will boost your ability to communicate with spir8its and they are also quite protective & territorial. They heighten your spiritual energy and supernatural abilities. They will guide you in becoming more evolved.
Recommended for keeping by experienced Keepers only.
