‘Depths of Wisdom' Whaleshark & Iris | Watercolour Art print

Chapter 5 in exploring the connection between the land and sea while observing how it can encourage us to embrace a slower, more gentle approach to life.

Whale Shark & Iris

In the vast blue depths, the whale shark moves with gentle grace, an ancient guardian of wisdom, prosperity, and balance. Many cultures see this magnificent being as a symbol of good fortune, embodying the spirit of a kind-hearted grandmother, carrying the harmony of the ocean within its presence. Who else’s grandmother was born in a time/society that made them tough, yet were still the softest sweetest women you’d ever meet?

Like the whale shark, the iris flower holds deep spiritual meaning. Representing faith, hope, and a connection to the divine feminine, it blooms with quiet strength, reminding us to trust in the journey ahead. Both the whale shark and iris whisper of wisdom—one through the rhythms of the sea, the other through the language of the earth. Together, they call us to embrace harmony, trust in the flow of life, and open our hearts to prosperity in all its forms.

Calling on the energy of both the whale shark and the iris invites a powerful blend of wisdom, harmony, prosperity, and divine connection into your life.
