This spring we are being faced with an unprecedented experience on the planet. Humanity has taken a step further into the unknown as the corona virus has been unleashed. This is a valuable time to step back and review what is important in your life.
Prune Plum Blossoms Calendula Pear Blossoms
Throughout time, flowers and plants have nurtured us, provided nutrition, healing and inspiration. In the spring there is an abundance of hope and assistance in the form of flowers. Flowers provide beauty, both in sight and smell. Some are even edible!
To soothe the soul and discover internal resources you didn’t know you had, flowers provide the gift of healing. Their essence is collected through the process of placing the flowers into spring water and setting them in the sun to extract the vibrational essence held inside. The plant material is then strained out and the remaining liquid is preserved for use.
Each flower has its own personality and purpose. When ingested or applied topically, the flower essences give many gifts – insight, calmness, resolution. In the garden this spring, there is an abundance of mustard, calendula, borage, and poppies. A new visitor cropped up all on its own this year – Forget Me Not! These particular flowers are especially valuable during such stressful times.
The Flower Essence Society based in Nevada City, CA has identified the qualities of each of these flowers and prepares them for our use. The following descriptions are from their website, FESflowers.com.
