Behind the Wheel (Literally)
Hi, I’m Lisa — potter-in-chief here at Spirit Fire Pottery.
My backyard studio in Sonora, CA is where I spend my happiest hours, throwing small-batch handmade pottery — pieces meant to brighten your day.
I keep things real and unapologetically boutique and handmade — no mass production here (because… boring). I make pieces you’ll actually use and love: the mug that feels just right in your hands, the bowl that turns every snack into a moment, the dish that quietly cheers you on from your counter.
Oh, and sometimes there’s a little rebel spirit mixed in… because, you know, the world.

Dreams about Snakes and What They Mean
“Because it sheds its skin, the snake has long been a symbol of death and rebirth...This is associated with higher wisdom that comes with the passing of time. This cycle of death and rebirth is often symbolized by the ouroboros, the ancient image of a snake swallowing its on tail. it is the symbol of eternity.” - Ted Andrews
Before deciphering a dreams meaning, turning to animal spirit totems, or collective meanings of snakes in this case, I like to invite the dreamer to look first at what the symbology is in your life regarding the dream subject.
What does snake mean to you? Is it scary? Is it intriguing? What was a real life encounter you've had with snakes? What are some childhood archetypes you remember about snakes? Remember the flute playing in cartoons to mesmerize the cobra?
After you've written down all the different things a snake means and represents to you, it will open the portal to truly explore your dream.
For example, one of my first thoughts and reactions of a snake is um...no thanks. But, when I step into the mystical or spiritual meanings of snakes, knowing that they represent an incredible medicine for healing, transformation, wisdom, and clairvoyance, my mind expands into other realms outside of my immediate reactions.
The best resource in my library for animal totems is Ted Andrews' Animal Speak. If you don't already have it, I highly recommend it. In the chapter about snake, he summarizes the different cultural perspectives on snakes, ranging from the snake being evil, to the snake being revered. This array of perspectives may conjure up a sense of the depth of its meaning for you.
It's outdoor season so you might come upon a snake in waking life. Be mindful, present, and see what comes up for you. It's just as fun working with these symbols in waking life as dream time.
FAQS
Tell me about your shipping
When you place a regular order, it will be packaged and shipped via USPS. It typically will take between 1 and 2 business days to package and drop off with USPS. Then, you'll receive a tracking number to see when your package will be delivered. I am located in California. You can expect shipping to take anywhere between 2 and 5 days depending on where in the country you live.
I try to be mindful about recycling and repurposing plastic packaging material, but I also may use biodegradable paper products to package up your pottery. The most important thing is to avoid any possible breakage while being delivered, so that's my priority.
Do you ship outside the United States?
At this point, I do not ship outside the US. However, if you are interested in buying my pottery and live outside the US, contact me with the piece(s) you're interested in, your mailing address in its entirety, and I'll calculate the shipping costs and invoice you.
Do you take custom order requests?
At this point, I'm not accepting custom order requests.
