It weighs about 2.1oz and measures approx. 1 5/16" inches tall X 2 1/8" inches long (tip of tail to tip of snout). Code-10072024-3814
As a totem animal, the Pig represents wealth, prosperity, and luck. The pig helps us to take the right actions or paths in our lives.

The Pig is seen, by some Native American tribes, to represent the abundance of daily life, and believe that it can teach us how to celebrate life every day, and to share that joy with others.

Native legends speak of crystal skulls as an inheritance from ancient times. Said to “talk and sing” they are believed to carry messages for all mankind, including what may be discovered when we overcome our fear of death.
The first layer you encounter when working with any skull, including Synergy, is "to remember." This is the first layer - and this layer has many other layers within it. What you are to called to remember is who you really are. It's so easy to get caught up in the daily things and forget that each life is short and sweet, even with the difficulties. The real you is a Being of Light. You are a Spiritual Being, inside of a physical body. "Remember."
