Five Of Clouds

The Explanation of Five of Clouds Osho Zen Tarot

Has anyone ever told you that bamboo is more beautiful than oak, or oak trees are more valuable than bamboo? Do you think that oaks always wish to have a hollow trunk like bamboo? Bamboo is jealous of oak because it is bigger and has leaves that change color in the fall?

The idea of comparing two species itself sounds very funny, but people themselves seem to find this habit very hard to break.

Let’s face it, there will always be someone who is more beautiful than you, more talented, powerful, intelligent, even happier than you. And vice versa, there will always be people who are less than you in every way. The way to find out who you are is not by comparing yourself with others, but by looking to see whether you are filled with your own potential in the best way you know.

 The Energy of Five of Clouds Osho Zen Tarot Based on Osho’s Teachings

Five of Clouds Osho Zen brings inferiority, superiority. When you don’t compare, all inferiority, all superiority, disappears. Then you are, you are simply there. A small bush or a big high tree – it doesn’t matter; you are yourself. You are needed. A grass leaf is needed as much as the biggest star. Without the grass leaf, God will be less than he is.

This sound of the cuckoo is needed as much as any Buddha; the world will be less, will be less rich if this cuckoo disappears. Just look around. All are needed, and everything fits together. It is an organic unity: nobody is higher and nobody is lower, nobody superior, nobody inferior. Everybody is incomparably unique.

Ailm

Transcendence, humility, compassion

Tree: Fir (Abies spp.) or Elm (Ulmus spp.)

Letter: A

Ailm represents the enlightenment that comes of perspective. Its symbol looks like a cross post-resurrection. “He is risen”, meaning He has transcended suffering and has forgiven His persecutors and all mankind to boot. In Iolo Morganwg’s Druid prayer, Ailm is the “love of all existences” that transcends the karmic cycle. Drawing Ailm in any form is a call to look at one’s own personality and to ask “What am I here to learn?” Ailm is a perspective that comes from eons and many, many lives worth of experience. Only lived experience gives us compassion and detachment in balance. Ailm is also the divine aspect of humor. When you laugh an honest laugh rooted in humility, the gods laugh with you.

Though our culture tends to devalue anyone above the age of 40, we can acknowledge wisdom that comes with age, not in every case but reliably enough that it’s a valid stereotype that a person gets “older and wiser.” Having a bunch of lived experience can be quite helpful when it comes to solving life’s problems and making peace with its predicaments. The truly wise neither rush forward with unbalanced optimism nor shrink away with unbalanced pessimism; their information is better than that. They have the ability to read the winds before hoisting sails and attempting to journey across the sea.

Hexagram Fifteen/15

Ch’ien / Modesty

The Mountain does not overshadow the Plain surrounding it:
Such modest consideration in a Superior Person creates a channel through which excess flows to the needy.

Success if you carry things through.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

The Cosmos is moving toward equilibrium.
Extremes are being tempered, excess is beginning to shift toward the empty.
You can use these moderating influences to strike a balance in the world around you.
Remember, though, that this Leveling will not come about through an arrogant confiscation of excess, but through subtler persuasions.
Modesty and moderation are the keys.

Angel Number

Fifty-Eight

Basic meaning of angel number “5”

It is a number that means that you are at a turning point in your life.

It can be a big change for you and consume energy, but accept it as it is a good change.

Angels tell us that it takes effort, but what lies ahead is great, so stay conscious of being positive and doing the right thing.

It also tells you when to get married, which means that those who are worried about when to get married are at the time of decision.

Basic meaning of angel number “8”

It is a number that means that you will have financial wealth.

It also shows that you can succeed by demonstrating your ability in the work, and that you have endless possibilities.

Let go of your fears and anxieties.

Also, let’s receive it naturally without doubting the financial wealth.

There is no humility to say “I don’t have that qualification” or “I’m afraid”.

Being grateful and honest is what makes an angel happy.

The angel number “58” has the above meanings, but it tells you that your life will be richer and more wonderful.

The chances of meeting and marrying a destined partner, successful work, and gaining wealth and fame are not zero, but real.

Don’t be afraid of big changes.

It has infinite possibilities.

It’s never too late to start something new.

Be honest with your feelings and go in the direction you want to go.

(One Person’s View Point) Beltane Sunset to Sunset. April 30th – May 1st

Beltane honours Life. It represents the peak of Spring and the beginning of Summer. Earth energies are at their strongest and most active. All of life is bursting with potent fertility and at this point in the Wheel of the Year, the potential becomes conception. On May Eve the sexuality of life and the earth is at its peak. Abundant fertility, on all levels, is the central theme. The Maiden goddess has reached her fullness. She is the manifestation of growth and renewal, Flora, the Goddess of Spring, the May Queen, the May Bride. The Young Oak King, as Jack-In-The-Green, as the Green Man, falls in love with her and wins her hand. The union is consummated and the May Queen becomes pregnant. Together the May Queen and the May King are symbols of the Sacred Marriage (or Heiros Gamos), the union of Earth and Sky, and this union has merrily been re-enacted by humans throughout the centuries. For this is the night of the Greenwood Marriage. It is about sexuality and sensuality, passion, vitality and joy. And about conception. A brilliant moment in the Wheel of the Year to bring ideas, hopes and dreams into action. And have some fun…..

Traditions of Beltane

Beltane is a Fire Festival. The word ‘Beltane’ originates from the Celtic God ‘Bel’, meaning ‘the bright one’ and the Gaelic word ‘teine’ meaning fire. Together they make ‘Bright Fire’, or ‘Goodly Fire’ and traditionally bonfires were lit to honour the Sun and encourage the support of Bel and the Sun’s light to nurture the emerging future harvest and protect the community. Bel had to be won over through human effort. Traditionally all fires in the community were put out and a special fire was kindled for Beltane. “This was the Tein-eigen, the need fire. People jumped the fire to purify, cleanse and to bring fertility. Couples jumped the fire together to pledge themselves to each other. Cattle and other animals were driven through the smoke as a protection from disease and to bring fertility. At the end of the evening, the villagers would take some of the Teineigen to start their fires anew.” (From Sacred Celebrations by Glennie Kindred) Green Man – Beltane

Crafts for the Beltane Sabbat

Click here to read all the Beltane craft ideas Source: learnreligions.com

April’s showers have given way to rich and fertile earth, and as the land greens, there are few celebrations as representative of fertility as Beltane. Observed on May 1st (or October 31-November 1 for our Southern Hemisphere readers), festivities typically begin the evening before, on the last night of April. It’s a time to welcome the abundance of the fertile earth, and a day that has a long (and sometimes scandalous) history.

Crafts for the Pagan Beltane Sabbat

As Beltane approaches, you can decorate your home (and keep your kids entertained) with a number of easy craft projects. Start celebrating a bit early with fun floral crowns and a Maypole altar centerpiece, do some meditative braiding, or even get to the know the Fae! A few simple seasonal crafts are a great way to celebrate the Beltane Sabbat. There’s more to this time of year than just plants and greenery, so be sure to check out these simple craft ideas!

Spell for Tomorrow – Fairy Wishing Spell

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY.)

FAIRY MAGICK

Because fairies are connected to nature, their spells are usually performed outdoors. A small brook, a secret lily pond, the base of your favorite tree, or a field of wild flowers all make excellent settings for fairy magick. Even large, lush window boxes, overflowing with fragrant herbs and delicate blossoms, can serve as a haven for the wee folk.

Fairy Wishing Spell

For this spell you will need:

a small white birthday candle,

a silver coin,

seven moon cookies (sugar cookies cut into crescent moons), and

a secluded wooded area where you can be alone.

As you walk through the woods, keep a close eye out for Fairy circles, small circular areas surrounded by inedible red fungi with white spots. It is believed that fairies meet within these rings to celebrate their magickal rites. When you find a fairy circle, carefully place your coin in the center of it. Set the candle on top of the coin, light it, and make your wish. When the candle has completely burned out, place the moon cookies around the coin, state your wish aloud, and then walk away. If you return to the spot and your coin and candle are gone, you will know that your wish has been granted.

Spell for Tomorrow – Hot Stuff Candle Spell

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY.)

Now that you are starting to get into the passionate, courageous, and daring qualities of Tuesday, here are a few more spells for you to experiment with. Don’t be afraid to adapt these spells to suit your needs. Add some tarot cards, herbs, scents, crystals, or essential oils to these Tuesday spells, and crank up the volume on your own witchery! As long as your intentions are honorable, I am sure they will work out beautifully.

Hot Stuff Candle Spell

 Want to drive your lover crazy? This candle spell is meant to entice and tempt. The whole point of it is to add a little spark back into your relationship and to make you irresistible. In this spell, you will be calling on Lilith, so prepare yourself for a good time. Please remember to be conscientious of this spell and only work this upon yourself, self, so you and your partner can have a little fun.

Gather a red candle, a black candle, and two candle holders. Sprinkle a dash of pepper per and a pinch of allspice on the unlit candles. Arrange three snapdragons or three red roses in a vase.

Repeat the following charm three times:

As I light red and black candles for a hot and sexy spell
I now call on Lilith for passion, and all will be well
Peppers and spice and snapdragons/red roses three
These will make me very enticing, so now must it be.
Close the spell with:
For the good of all, with harm to none
May my love and I have a little fun!

 

Now, go and find your lover, give him or her a bewitching smile, and see what kind of reaction you get.

Spell for Today- Positive Change Spells

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY. You can find the origin of the spell by clicking on the hyperlink.)

Thursdays are good days for travel and change. It’s the perfect day to re-arrange the furniture of your house and gain a new perspective on something. Even if you are not able to do any traveling on this day, you can still use Thursdays to do spells for travel. You can even do spells for positive change, and re-arrangement of your life. It’s a good idea to exercise on this day, as well. That way, your body can be in-shape by the time Friday comes

 

Positive Change Spells – Write Change Spells

Things you will need:
1 sheet of paper
1 pen or pencil
1 green candle
1 lighter or match
Light the green candle and think about how you want your life to change. When you are ready, draw a cross symbol on the sheet of paper with the pen or pencil. Label each corner of the cross with the first letter of the four directions on Earth. For example: “N” for North and “E” for East. Above the cross, write the word, “CHANGE.” Now, take your pen or pencil and place it in the center of the cross. Draw a swirl, counter-clockwise, three times. Then, take the pen back to the center of the cross and draw, clockwise, three times. Now, blow out the candle. After doing that fold the paper up and safely burn it or toss it in a body of water. After a few days, you should feel the changes you wanted to start happening.

 

Re-arrange Spells – Bouquet Re-arrange Spell

3 different kinds of flowers
1 vase
Get three different kinds of flowers and place them in a vase. Take a deep look at them and, then, step back for a few minutes. Walk back up to the flowers and re-arrange them. Then, say this chant three times:

 

“Flowers to move.
Life to re-arrange.
I need things to be different.
I need things to change.
What was over here,
Now, is over there.
What I need to spin around,
Soon, will have new flare.”

 

After about a week or so, you will notice a good deal of the re-arrangement you wanted.

Ruis

Regret, pride, shame, embarrassment, learning from experience, resolution

Tree: Elder (Sambucus spp.)

Letter: R

Shame isn’t all bad and does not deserve a uniformly awful reputation. Without shame and the fear of being shamed, every human child would be demonically bratty. Shame is a limit that informs us to keep our own ego in check. It is often about considering others. Having shame about one’s own past behavior is motivation to avoid shameful behaviors such as cheating and stealing.

Shame is an emotion that demands confrontation. All too often, people run away from what shames them, attempt to excuse themselves from wrongful or immoral behavior because they’re too cowardly to face what they have done or to admit their responsibility in causing their own misfortunes or the misfortune of others. Ruis indicates a willingness to face one’s own shame and to do with shame what it was meant for, and that is to use shame of the past to build oneself into a better person for the present and future. Ashamed of something you did? How can you make yourself into the type of person who would never even think of doing something like that? Overcome being the type of person who would engage in the shameful behavior and you become the master of it; you won’t have the remotest chance of repeating such a mistake. Did you become embarrassed because you did something you now understand to be greedy? Then learn to balance thriftiness with generosity. Adjust to the circumstance rather than overreacting to it. Are you ashamed about cheating on a boyfriend/girlfriend or spouse? Become a person who would never cheat on your boyfriend/girlfriend or spouse regardless of conditions, which could mean an assortment of outcomes: sticking to a resolution of no cheating and staying together, admitting one’s sexual preferences and going with the flow, changing the person you are with, or being single for a long time.

Because humans tend to remember negative experiences more easily than positive ones, it’s important when you draw Ruis to acknowledge the things you are not ashamed of about yourself. For every bad or shameful thing you’ve done, remember there are a thousand shameful things you avoided. Maybe it is time to appreciate the places you could have gone horribly wrong and did not.

Ruis ill-dignified death:

Lacking shame and the good sense that goes with it. Too little shame is solipsism, or the belief that since we answer only to ourselves in the end, the world is a free for all of Social Darwinism and we’d do best to grab all we can in the feeding frenzy. Drawing Ruis ill-dignified isn’t necessarily saying you are the smoking train wreck of a sociopath who is acting the compleat solipsist; it is more of a warning of tendencies towards that type of flawed thinking or a call to look at the nature of solipsism and to meditate upon what it means to you. Don’t be the pot who calls the kettle black. Caring about how your actions impact your family, friends, the environment, and the future is ultimately anti-solipsistic. A little self-shame goes a long way in bettering one’s own development as a human being.

Hexagram Sixty – Two/62

Hsiao Kuo / Lying Low

Thunder high on the Mountain, active passivity:
The Superior Person is unsurpassed in his ability to remain small.
In a time for humility, he is supremely modest.
In a time of mourning, he uplifts with somber reverence.
In a time of want, he is resourcefully frugal.

When a bird flies too high, its song is lost.
Rather than push upward now, it is best to remain below.
This will bring surprising good fortune, if you keep to your course.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

There is no profit to striving here.
To be content with oneself is the greatest success imaginable.
The enlightened person has nothing to prove to himself or others, and thus may always operate from a position of sincerity, with no pretense or posturing.
His humility is guileless simplicity.
His mourning is selfless compassion.
His frugality is an unshakeable faith that he is but a conduit, letting what is needed flow through him to others, with no loss to himself.

As an Aries born on April 4th…

 Astrological symbol: Ram. This relates to a strong individual who always take action quickly. This is the symbol for people born between March 21 and April 19 when the Sun is in the Aries zodiac sign.

 The Aries Constellation with the brightest stars being Alpha, Beta and Gamma Arietis is spread on 441 sq degrees between Pisces to the West and Taurus to the East. Its visible latitudes are +90° to -60°, this being just one of the twelve zodiac constellations.

 The name Aries comes from the Latin name for Ram. This is the most common used name to define the zodiac sign for April 4 zodiac sign, however in Greek they call it Kriya and in French Bélier.

 Opposite sign: Libra. This is the sign directly across the zodiac circle from the Aries zodiac sign. It suggests combativeness and naivety and these two are considered to make great partnerships.

 Modality: Cardinal. This modality indicates the moody nature of those born on April 4 and their elegance and fun in most life experiences.

 Ruling house: The first house. This house rules over novelty, initiative and individual self. It is also the house of the ascendant, second in importance after the zodiac sign.

 Ruling body: Mars. This celestial body is said to influence vitality and a certain sweetness. The Mars glyph is the inverted symbol of Venus, Mars being the masculine energy opposing the feminine one. Mars also suggests the courage in the lives of these natives.

 Element: Fire. This is the element of those who confidently pursue their plans and who are quick to reveal their fiery nature. It works so to the benefit of those born under the April 4 zodiac.

 Lucky day: Tuesday. This is a day ruled by Mars, therefore symbolizes passion and vitality and identifies best with the Aries natives who are dynamic.

 Lucky numbers: 5, 8, 12, 19, 29.

 Motto: I am, I do!

People born on April 4 posses a lot of sincerity and they prefer to name the truth at any time, no matter how thought it may sound. They are autonomous beings but can also be cordial when necessary. Just like a true Aries, they are resourceful and need frequent diversification in order to advance. They like to organize and argument about a wide range of things. They evade all situations where they have to wait for something to happen. Those born under this sign feel best when they are part of big informal gatherings.

 Positive Traits: We’re talking about highly resourceful people who are reliable once you win their attention and respect. They have an amazingly quick response to any kind of change. Aries people are usually both efficient and imaginative, that’s something quite hard to find, right? Those born under this sign are also the starters of the zodiac and the most enterprising people but they sometimes lose enthusiasm before the completion of a project, although they probably have thought about it thoroughly at first.

 Negative Traits: One of the things Aries needs to learn is to take more calculated decisions and not abandon ideas they consider good only because they can’t be realized as soon as their impatient temper would require. Those born on this day are overly confident and prone to building up depression or sadness feelings as they do not open easily to others because they don’t want to risk crashing their strong appearance. They are sometimes very undiplomatic, intolerant and self absorbed and this will damage some of their relationships with people if they don’t behave themselves.

Love and Compatibility: Lovers born on April 4 are both sentimental and passionate. They have no patience for courtship so they step this stage and go directly to professing their deep passions. They can be easily swept off their feet by eccentric and mysterious persons. Magic ends only if their partner can’t keep up with their incredibly active pace. Aries is also falling for simplicity and real enthusiasm. When they are single they focus on their ideas and plans and seem to be even more productive.

 They are likely to fall in love at a young age and have many interactions with different kinds of people. Once they settle for their loved one, they are patient and dependable and seek for peace and fulfillment. Usually a reserved person, once they are in love, everyone around them knows it. They surprise everyone with their warmth and devotion to their loved one, especially because love comes unexpectedly in their life. They are most compatible with those born on 1st, 8th, 10th, 17th, 19th, 26th and 28th. April 4 Zodiac people are very attached to the other two fire signs: Leo and Sagittarius as they tend to share the same vision of life. In love, Aries is in a constant search for and understanding partner with whom they can connect at a deeper level. The most suitable to offer this kind of relationship to them is the affectionate and loyal Libra. Aries is said to be least compatible with those born under the Pisces zodiac sign. As for the rest of partnerships between the other star signs and Aries, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.

Lucky Color: The color used in astrology for those with April 4 is red.

Red symbolizes passion, energy, attention and is the warmest of all colors. This zodiac color should be used in objects around the house and accessories.

People who have red as sign color are dynamic, attractive and powerful. They are outstanding personalities, gifted with all it needs to take the lead to success. On the other hand red is temper and anger so when provoked they tend to get aggressive. Red is favored by active and confident persons who need to feel in control and are always standing out and getting all the attention.

Other colors for Aries people are scarlet and carmine.

Representative Birthstone: The lucky Aries birthstone for those born under the April 4 is represented by Diamond.

Diamond presents a precious stone that reflects strength and elegance. The zodiac birthstone could be used in accessories and jewelry items.

This birthstone is said to enhance strength, generosity and courage and also keep away any dark forces. The Diamond used to be named the “teardrops of the gods” in ancient Greek.

Another precious stone considered beneficial for Aries natives is Emerald. It represents harmony and regeneration.

Characteristic Flower: Honeysuckle is the flower said to be representative for Aries people born with April 4.

Honeysuckle is a known symbol of delicacy and grace. This zodiac flower should be used in decorative items in the places these natives spend time.

This flower also reveals an individual ready to go through any hassle in order to accomplish his plan. This flower can be enjoyed during spring time but continue until early fall.

Other plants for Aries natives are Geranium and Ginger.

Symbolic Metal: The metal used in astrology for those with April 4 is Iron.

This is a metal that symbolizes action and purity. The zodiac metal could be used in accessories and jewelry items.

IF YOU ARE AN APRIL 4 BIRTHDAY PERSONALITY, you are the most sensible and down-to-earth Arian there is. If you are not good at inventing things, then you are good at achieving things. Arians love challenges and feel that there is a purpose for living.

Those born on this birthday, the 4th of April, are highly imaginative and have a sharp business mindset. However, you are soft-spoken but direct and honest.

Aries, you can also be a little bossy and impatient. Roll all these qualities up and you have an Arian that is ambitious and logical… one that can make choices based on fairness and equality.

As the April 4 birthday personality traits show, being your friend, Aries, has its drawbacks and its positive side. You try to remain positive but get easily agitated when someone disagrees with you.

Some Arians have a quick temper. A small disagreement could sometimes turn into a raging verbal match with you. As long as you are in control, you are a happy camper, Aries.

In love, the 4 April birthday horoscope predicts you can be a playful and joyful partner. Sometimes, Aries, you can be mischievous in your dealings with others. However, positive connections with those you love are pleasing to your partnership.

You love it when you are on top of your game, and things go your way. You seem to balance your family life and career. you have a strong sense of responsibility toward love and kinship. In addition, you can maneuver your loved one into the advanced phases of romance when you are ready for the next move.

If today April 4 is your birthday, you like to keep life simple with romance. You are self-contained yet you want a stable relationship.

You have high standards and expectations, but you will happily give what you ask of your loved one. It takes a lot to reach the point where trust is not an issue, so if you intend on making love last, it will be with someone sincere, loyal, and passionate.

As the April 4th birthday astrology suggests, you must work for what you want out of life. Some of you Arians have trouble deciding on a career. This is a case of self-doubt.

In light of this, you have considered jobs that could be practically run by robots. You cannot let fear get in your way of accomplishing your goals and from not getting what is rightfully yours, Aries. The world is yours!

You have inherited this earth to aspire and dream big. Do not miss your big opportunity second-guessing your ability. To an Aries, the salary may be relevant but the kind of work does not matter as long as it is a 9-5. This too can be a hindrance to reaching your full potential.

Being an Aries with a zodiac birthday on April 4, you tend to hold your emotions in. You should talk it out whether you are upset, angry, or hurt. Keeping it and letting it fester can play havoc with your body, spirit, and mind.

You tend to develop headaches and insomnia. Vent more… eat healthier foods and maintain a workout to alleviate stress and tension. After the workout, grab a professional massage. It can do wonders for the whole body. Oh… FYI Aries, stress can make your hair fall out in patches.

The astrology birthday meanings for April 4 foretell that you are a levelheaded Arian but sometimes lose your cool when people disagree with you. You are artistic and sharp as a whip when it comes to business.

You are a pushover when it comes to romantic gestures and you would benefit from a long-term relationship. Alsowho is trustworthy is passionate and trustworthy.

Aries, you could have anything if only you set your sights on it. Those born on this day may have to go out of their comfort zone to reach their goals and aspirations. When you worry, Arians tend to suffer from headaches and wakefulness. Get your feelings out in the open so you will feel better.

Flower Magic: The Secret Language Of The Flowers

There are many things that were known only about a hundred years ago that have become lost, and the secret language of the flowers is one of them. In days gone by it was held an important part of women’s education to know home remedies, about the qualities of plants and this had a large metaphysical component.

Just knowing that there is a secret language of flowers changes many things; and of course has many applications in practical as well as esoteric magic and energy magic.

Right up to Victorian times, the meaning of flowers was common knowledge amongst people and was used to transmit messages and information.

In this painting which looks so harmless to a modern Westerner and merely decorative, there is story told in flowers about the person who painted it, and the person for whom they painted it. That’s a second layer of information, invisible to those who are not in the know; because of this it is called the secret language of flowers.

If you look for it, you will find flowers everywhere – they appear seemingly harmlessly and randomly in portraits, in the background of stained glass windows in a church; they are carved in stone in palaces and temples; and often you will see a depiction of saints and important historical figures who are holding a flower, or are pointing to one.

On a visit to an old graveyard, you can tell the plants that were chosen to be on a person’s grave, using the secret language of flowers – and the vast majority of people walk right by and have no idea that all of that is going on.

Importantly, flowers were used to express emotions, especially in romantic relationships. Gentlemen would bring posies to the ladies; and the ladies would wear very specific flowers on their hats, or choose or make fabrics that would bear particular flower motives.

Any fabric pre-dating the Second World War has this language of flowers, this additional meaning and information, interwoven into its very structure; this is practical magic where intention is added to a natural existence and used intelligently in order to bring about a change in reality.

For example, if you put on a cushion a design that says in the language of flowers, “If you put your head on this cushion to rest, you will have sweet dreams of love, independence, freedom and joy,” that’s a pure piece of human magic or witchcraft at work. For people who actively practice the art of bringing intention into daily life and shaping their own destiny that way, the language of flowers, that secret layer of intention, energy and information, provides a dictionary of symbols that can be practically evoked in spells and rituals, in magic potions by adding the physical components of that particular flower to the spell.

If you learn the secret language of the flowers, you have a magical alphabet to make your own spells; this is how most of magic works, you don’t learn a bunch of spells and ingredients by heart, but instead, you learn what the ingredients do and so you can mix and match for every occasion.

For example, one of the only surviving flower language symbols is that of the red rose for romantic love. People might nowadays have absolutely no idea what a bluebell was meant to mean only a hundred years ago, or even what a Valerian flower looks like, never mind where you could find one or what its flower language message is, but it is still known that a red rose means love.

Knowing that, you can add the petals of a red rose to any love potion that has a physical/sexual strand to it; and also to any other type of potion where a physical/sexual strand would add a bit of va va voom to the spell in question.

As always, knowing even a little bit about magic opens your eyes, ears and your other senses to the simple fact that there is more to life than the dour ones would have us believe.

Wondering what was said about this lady in the portrait here by the flowers makes meeting with this image in a whole new way. Modern science will have us believe that our ancestors were all a bunch of idiots who believed in superstitious nonsense and that there is no such thing as the invisible worlds of energy and information.

I’m afraid they are the fools; and it’s a shame because the world becomes a much more interesting place when you pay attention and find out about such things as the secret language of the flowers, and how this has been used throughout the ages of mankind to tell us things most people now will never understand.

And if you make the secret language of the flowers your own, you can do many interesting, inspiring and wonderful things with that – even if it’s just choosing a wallpaper that has the right flowers for your purposes on it, and smiling every day when you see it again.

Below is a very short version of the secret language of flowers; for a much more comprehensive flower language dictionary from A-Z with a search function and a reverse list so you can decide the quality/meaning you need and then look up the right flower or plant, go here:

Oh Setting Sun of passing day,

Aid me in Your gentle way.

Take this spell, oh Ancient One:

Give it Your strength as You pass on.

Sun Phases – Afternoon

As the Sun journeys downward, His energies take on a receptive quality. Use this phase to work efforts involving professionalism, business matters, communications, and clarity. It is also of benefit for spellwork involving exploration and travel.
