Snowflake Solstice






"A snowflake never falls in the wrong place.” - Zen
Proverb

Snowflake Solstice - A snowflake symbolizes individuality.
Due to their geometric forms they also represent perfection. Their clear and
glassy formation also represents purity. When it snows it seems that the world
falls into a tranquil meditation and therefore snowflakes also represent
serenity, peace and tranquility. Symmetry is another manifestation of the
balance of Yin and Yang, of the unimpeded flow of ch'i.

The Christmas Star



The Christmas Star –

The poinsettia is also known as the Christmas Star or the Star Of Bethlehem.

The ancient Aztecs considered this plant to be a symbol of purity.

Poinsettias are the December birth flower although it actually not a flower the leaves turn colors of red, white or pink.

They also symbolize joy and triumph and are said to bring wishes of merriment and festivity.

There is an old Mexican legend about how Poinsettias and Christmas come together, it goes like this:

There was once a poor Mexican girl called Pepita who had no present to give the the baby Jesus at the Christmas Eve Services. As Pepita walked to the chapel, sadly, her cousin Pedro tried to cheer her up.
'Pepita', he said "I'm sure that even the smallest gift, given by someone who loves him will make Jesus Happy."


Pepita didn't know what she could give, so she picked a small handful of weeds from the roadside and made them into a a small bouquet. She felt embarrassed because she could only give this small present to Jesus. As she walked through the chapel to the altar, she remembered what Pedro had said. She began to feel better, knelt down and put the bouquet at the bottom of the nativity scene. Suddenly, the bouquet of weeds burst into bright red flowers, and everyone who saw them were sure they had seen a miracle. From that day on, the bright red flowers were known as the 'Flores de Noche Buena', or 'Flowers of the Holy Night'

Gracious Memories

Wishing you a mellow Monday!

Gracious Memories - This bouquet includes bachelor buttons
A.K.A cornflower, forget-me-nots and baby snapdragons.

Bachelor Buttons symbolism - bachelors wore this flower when
they were attracted to a maiden and sought to court her. The longer the
bachelor donned the flower and the longer the flower bloomed told of the degree
of his love. If the flower faded away quickly it was not meant to be.

Forget-me-not symbolism - The Forget-Me-Not flower
represents true faithful love, fond memories and hope. It is also a flower
essence of the heart chakra.

Snapdragon symbolism – fascination, graciousness and being
cordial. It is also a flower essence of the throat chakra.

Before and After – A NEW DESIGN! I took a little poetic license on this design and changed the back ground gray color and added some blue hues.

Indigo Idiom - This is a Mexican blue wing butterfly
Blue is the color of the sky and sea. It is often associated with depth and stability. It symbolizes trust, loyalty, wisdom, confidence, intelligence, faith, truth, and heaven. Blue is considered beneficial to the mind and body. It slows human metabolism and produces a calming effect.

The Mandarin Chinese word for butterfly is "hu-tieh". "Tieh" means "70 years", therefore butterflies have become a symbol for a long life. If a butterfly crosses your path, it means good luck. In the Japanese culture butterflies are thought to be representative of young maidens and marital bliss. In ancient Greek the word for butterfly is "Psyche", which translated means "soul". Butterflies also symbolize: Resurrection, Transition, Celebration, Lightness, Time and Soul. Symmetry is another manifestation of the balance of Yin and Yang, of the unimpeded flow of ch'i.

Eclipse of the Dragon

Meditative Monday - The dragonfly is a beneficial meditation
tool. Focus on an thought with your eyes closed. Now visualize that thought
gently rising to the surface (like the dragonfly larvae does) . Allow your
thought to rise to the smooth surface of the water and gently glide across the
top. This meditation is most effective when you are concentrating on positive
outcomes.

Eclipse of the Dragon – This is a female Eastern Pondhawk
Dragonfly on a tiger lily.

The Tiger Lily symbolizes wealth and pride. In many
religions the tiger lily is presented as a sign of mercy and compassion. The
Dragonfly symbolizes prosperity, good luck, strength, peace, harmony and
purity. The color orange is said to stimulate creativity, productivity,
pleasure, optimism, enthusiasm and emotional expression. The color green
supports balance, harmony, love, communication, nature and acceptance.

The dragonfly is a primal zodiac spirit animal for those
born:
10/24/1930 thru 11/21/1930
10/24/1942 thru 11/21/1942
10/24/1954 thru 11/21/1954
10/24/19566 thru 11/21/1966
10/24/1978 thru 11/21/1978
10/24/1990 thru 11/21/1990
10/24/2002 thru 11/21/2002
10/24/2014 thru 11/21/2014

Independent, temperamental, and restless, those born under
the Primal Zodiac sign of the Dragonfly are powerful individuals who are
determined to get what they want in life. Like their animal namesake, members
of this sign are fast, energetic hunters whose power greatly outmatches their
size.
Dragonflies are very passionate individuals. Their work
ethic is second to none and combined with their forceful sense of
determination, members of this sign are practically unstoppable. This is also
one of the most resilient signs in the Primal Zodiac. Dragonflies cannot be
held back by outside forces, period. Any obstacles in their way will be
systematically removed as the Dragonfly pushes ever forward. They will only
stop a project if they make a conscious decision to do so. Those who try to get
in their way are wasting their time.

bachelors wore this flower when they were attracted to a maiden and sought to
court her. The longer the bachelor donned the flower and the longer the flower

Monday Awakening

Mellow Monday – May this day bring to you a fresh and inspired start to the week!

Monday Awakening this design is of a Gerbera daisy,
Nemesia, fern and on the outer edge a Tiger Lily.

The daisy represents purity, innocence, loyal love, beauty,
patience and simplicity and new beginnings. The Gerbera daisy, the fifth most
popular flower in the world, has the added symbolism of cheerfulness!

The word daisy comes from the Old English word dægeseage,
meaning "day's eye". The daisy was thusly named because at night the
petals close over the yellow center and during the day they re-open or
“awaken”. This is how the fun saying “as fresh as a daisy” was created; it
infers that someone had a restful sleep.

There is a Celtic Legend about the death of an infant. God
sprinkled daisies all over the world when an infant passed to ease the parents
suffering and to cheer them up.

The daisy is the sacred flower of the Norse Goddess of love,
beauty and fertility, Freya. The daisy embodies childbirth, motherhood and new
beginnings.

The daisy is actually two flowers in one, called a composite
flower. The yellow center is called the disc floret and the outer petals are
the ray floret. Because they are actually two flower in one, blending it such
beautiful harmony the also symbolize true love!

Nemesia is Greek for “she who administers justice”.

Ferns symbolize sincerity towards others. It can also be a
symbol of magic, fascination, confidence, shelter, discretion, reverie and a
secret bond of love. Ferns are prehistoric living before the age of the
dinosaurs!

Tiger lily signifies wealth and pride.

Before and After – New Design

Energized Enlightenment – This chakra mandala design is made of flowers of the chakra system. A design I have been wanting to do for some time.

There are seven chakras that begin at the base of the spine and ascend through the body and end at the top of your head. Each of the seven points are connected with part of the body, energy, emotion and a life force.

The first is the root chakra that begins and the base of the spine. The Sanskrit name is Muladhara, which translates to root support. It is represented by the color red and the element of earth. This chakra unites you to the earth. A balanced root chakra provides a stable foundation and a positive self-awareness. If unbalanced one may feel insecure, frightened, and greedy.

The second chakra is the sacral chakra which is positioned between the pubic bone and navel. The Sanskrit name is Svadhishthana, which translates to dwelling place of the self. It is represented by the color orange and the water element. This chakra stimulates emotions, suppresses inhibitions, energizes your ability to adapt, creativity, social abilities and individuality. An unbalanced sacral chakra causes creative stagnation, fear, inertia and lust.

The third chakra is the Solar Plexus Chakra. This chakra is position in the lumbar spine and navel. The Sanskrit name is Manipura, which translates to city of jewels. It is represented by the color yellow and fire element. This chakra emphases one’s id, resolve, self-worth and how we feel we are perceived. It stimulates clarity of thought, inquisitiveness and mindfulness. It promotes self-acceptance. It allows us to feel in tune with the earth. An unbalanced chakra causes anger, self-denial, lack of integrity, inertia and inability to take control.

The fourth chakra is the Heart Chakra. This chakra center point is in the heart region. In Sanskrit it is called anahata which means unstuck. It is represented by the color green and focuses on emotional energy. This chakra promotes the ability to give and received love unconditionally. It supports our ability to love and nurture ourselves and others. It strengthens our the sense of serenity. An unbalanced heart chakra causes emotional paralysis, emotional neediness, codependency and a sense of isolation.

The fifth chakra is the Throat Chakra. It is positioned in the throat area. In Sanskrit it is call Vishuddha which translates to pure. It is represented by the color blue and the element of space. This chakra promotes prolific self-expression and eloquent commination. It stimulates Dharma (truth), and resolution. The color blue is considered comforting and soothing and can suppress nervousness and anxiety. Symptoms of an unbalance throat chakra are unresolved grief, fear of judgement, speech impairments, indecisiveness and inability to express oneself.

The sixth chakra is the Third Eye Chakra. It is positioned between the eyebrows. In Sanskrit is called Ajna meaning command or perception. It is represented by the color indigo. It triggers the physical senses and galactic attunement. It stimulates responsibility and our understanding and acceptance of divine direction. It encourages us to trust and follow our soul’s path. It fortifies our intuition and the ability to see the big picture.

The seventh chakra is the Crown Chakra. It is positioned and the top of our head. In Sanskrit it is called Sahasrara, which translates to thousand petaled lotus. It is represented by the color violet. This chakra promotes self-knowledge and spiritual consciousness. It assist in meditation and a collective understanding. If unbalanced one may suffer from self-delusion, distraction, lack of clarity and indulge in materialism.

Psychedelic Saturday

This is a bouquet of sunflower, blue hydrangea and pansies.


The sunflower is the Greek symbol of Clytie, a water nymph, who turns into a sunflower after grieving over the loss of her love, Apollo. Clytie, now in the form of a sunflower, is always facing the sun, looking for Apollo's chariot to return in the hope she is reunited with her love. In Chinese symbolism, the sunflower represents long life, good luck and is considered very auspicious. It's yellow color signifies vitality and intelligence as well as happiness. Sunflowers also symbolize adoration, loyalty and longevity. The hydrangea expresses the giver's gratefulness for the recipient's understanding. It also represents all that is sincerely heartfelt. The hydrangea is the 4th wedding anniversary flower. It symbolizes enduring grace and beauty, gratefulness and heartfelt feelings. In China, the hydrangea is associated with enlightenment. The flower symbolism associated with the pansy is merriment and you occupy my thoughts. The pansy is also considered a flower of remembrance, togetherness and union. Pansies help evoke fond memories of our loved ones. It is believed if a pansy is placed over someone’s eyes while sleeping, upon waking that person will fall in love with the first person to appear. Symmetry is another manifestation of the balance of Yin and Yang, of the unimpeded flow of ch'i

BEFORE AND AFTER – A NEW DESIGN!

BEE Still My BEEating HeartA perfect mandala chakra combination! Both the bee and the bleeding heart flower represent love. I have been trying to get the perfect shot of the many bees that frequent my bleeding heart flowers and I finally accomplished that goal! These bees are so large I am surprised the delicate bleeding hearts do not fall of the stem! LOL

Bee Meaning and Symbolism – Many cultures honor the bee and it is noted in many ancient cultures and mythologies. My favorite of course is the ancient Greek Goddess of Bees, Melissa. Melissa means honeybee in Greek and she also cared for the infant Zeus. She was turned into a beautiful bee by Zeus.

In ancient Egypt bees were a symbol of royalty and supremacy.
The Chinese consider designs of a bee sitting on a flower to represent courtship, marriage and love. They also these design to represent a maiden’s purity and fertility due to the bee’s pollination ability. The Chinese culture also considers the bee to represent cheerfulness, fortuity, affluence and harmony.

The overall symbolism of bees include: Love, Life, Order, Development, Knowledge, Beauty, Family, Happiness, Mystery, Sweetness, Nurturing, Community, Efficiency and Communication.

Bleeding Heart flower symbolism and Chakra meaning: The Heart Chakra is associated with the color green and the bleeding heart flower. If this chakra is unbalanced you demonstrate co-dependency and neediness. You feel deserted and unloved.

The bleeding heart flower and the color green relate to love and the ability to give and receive unconditionally. When your heart chakra is balanced, you offer love freely learning to nurture yourself and others. You feel at ease and experience soothing thoughts and feelings.

The flower symbolism of the Bleeding Heart is undying love, grace and fidelity. The essence of the bleeding heart flower is said to open up and strengthen the heart chakra, which in turn causes a person to feel emotionally soothed and open to the possibility of a new romance. It is thought to be especially useful after a heartbreak. These blossoms are also frequently used in love spells. Symmetry is another manifestation of the balance of Yin and Yang, of the unimpeded flow of ch'i.

justice”. The green comes from a ground cover plant called the purple
archangel.

Psychedelic Saturday!

This is a bouquet of purple daisies, lilacs, and pansies.
Purple is the most powerful visible wavelength of electromagnetic energy. It’s just a few steps away from x-rays and gamma rays. Perhaps this explains why purple is associated with supernatural energy and the cosmos than with the physical world as we know it. Purple lilacs symbolize the first emotions of love. The flower symbolism associated with the daisy is purity, innocence, loyal love, beauty, patience and simplicity. Pansies symbolize thoughtfulness, remembrance and love.

Ferns symbolize sincerity towards others. It can also be a symbol of magic, fascination, confidence, shelter, discretion, reverie and a secret bond of love. Ferns are prehistoric living before the age of the dinosaurs!
