Potential Palisman for Luz
After watching the episode "Hunting Palisman", I wondered what kind of animal or creature Luz would carve to make her palisman and came up with five-ish potential candidates.
Black Cat
Tumblr media
This one may be a bit cliché but I think a black cat palisman for Luz is a fun concept. Black cats are often associated with witches and with Luz wanting to be a witch, it'd be a fun fit. There's also how Luz is always wearing a cat hoodie and there's that one time where she tried to make an abomination more cat-like in " Escaping Expulsion". Not to mention I don't think I've seen any regular cats in the Boiling isles so it'd be nice to see Luz make a palisman reminiscent to an animal from the human realm that also is tied to witchcraft. I also like the idea of Luz having a palisman that can blend in the human realm as a pet or something.
Otter
Tumblr media
When thinking what kind of palisman Luz could have, I'd look back to any potential hints from previous episodes and here's one of them. I looked up what otters symbolize and they represent friendship, kindness, family, creativity as well as neverending curiosity, all of which fit Luz to a T. There's not much else to say about this one apart from potential foreshadow and that it'd suit Luz personality-wise.
Sparrow
Tumblr media
Eda has Owlbert and there's no replacing that little guy, Lilith has a raven, Mama Clawthorne has an eagle and the Hunter had a red cardinal. If Luz were to make a bird palisman so that she'd have a flying staff as well as to pay homage to her mentor, Eda the Owl Lady, I think a sparrow would be great fit for her. They're birds that represent creativity, friendliness and persistence which also fit Luz.
Also Amphibia had a sparrow character to reference Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean and this would be a way for the Owl House to do the same.
Snake
Tumblr media
Does anyone else remember the snakes that Luz had in the first episode? I do and I personally love the idea of Luz having a snake palisman. Snakes represent transformation and change which fits to how Luz has changed since she first arrived at the Boiling Isles. They also represent wisdom, which also fits to how Luz has learned more about magic since the beginning of the show. Then there's how snakes are a symbol of healing that could play into the potential of Luz breaking Eda's curse.
Personally, I think a snake palisman would be awesome for Luz but then again, a sparrow is also neat, plus it can fly and Luz has shown to be good at steering a flying staff.
Too bad there aren't any flying snakes...
Oh wait...
Quetzalcoatl
Tumblr media
Probably the least likely to become a reality but one I find to be the most epic. It's a feathered serpent so there's the snake that I think suits Luz and then there's the wings that will make it capable of flight.
Quetzalcoatl is often associated with Aztecan mythology as a god of arts, crafts (which again, fits Luz) and knowledge was said to have control over the elemental energies like wind and air (a tie in to how Luz uses glyph magic, elemental energies from the island itself).
Mostly I like the idea of Luz's palisman being a feathered serpent like Quetzalcoatl the best mostly due to aesthetic and how awesome it sounds.
I'm curious to see what kind future Luz will decide for herself and how her palisman will reflect that. Hope we'll at least get a glimpse of what it'll be before season 2 ends.
