Skull symbolism: Skull symbols represent a range of meanings, including mortality, transformation, individuality, rebellion, strength, courage and the cycle of life and death.

Mortality and Life's Transience:
A prominent meaning of skull jewellery is its reminder of the inevitability of death and the importance of living life to the fullest in the present moment.
Strength, Courage, and Power:
Skulls are also associated with bravery, fearlessness, overcoming challenges, and the concept of personal power, with some cultures viewing them as symbols of warrior spirits.
Protection and Remembrance:
In certain contexts, skull symbols are seen as a protective talisman against evil spirits or negative energies, and in cultures like Mexico's Day of the Dead, it honours and remembers loved ones.
