	shields
		Shields were used for military, spiritual and ceremonial purposes.
		It was believed that the protection came not from the material the shield was constructed from, but instead from the magic spiritual designs, symbols and elements placed on the shield.
		These contemporary shields have been created not for protection on the battlefield but to be used in daily life, reminding the person who has possession of the shield to focus their spiritual energy, which in turn will help the individual to align their mental, spiritual and physical being.
