Ferns (New)

Ferns symbolize sincerity toward others.In the spring, their tightly furled shoots resemble the spiral of creation representing peace, tranquility, spirituality and new growth or beginnings. In African symbology Aya, the fern, is symbolic of endurance and resourcefulness.

Violets (New)

Here in the north, violets are some of the first flowers we see after a long winter. Blooming quietly in the shade, violets symbolize the triumph of spring. I love their sweet scent and heart-shaped leaves.

Sunflowers (New)

The way they move their massive heads to meet the sun make them a flower of spiritual attainment, flexibility, and opportunity.Their open faces symbolize the sun itself, conveying warmth and happiness, adoration and longevity.

Blue Poppies (New)

Once believed to be mythical, the Himalayan poppy is both hardy to the harsh winters of its native climate, and difficult to grow in a garden. These flowers symbolize journeys of self-discovery, the undertaking of challenges, and the value of being in the right place to flourish.

Mushrooms

There are tribes in Africa and Siberia who believe that mushrooms symbolize the human soul. In Mexico mushrooms are symbols of knowledge and enlightenment. In Mah Jong, Ling Chi - the mushroom - represents immortality and eccentricity, and so is a sign of the occurrence of the unexpected. Surprise!

Trees

Trees bridge between worlds with their roots in the earth and their limbs in the sky. We breathe in symbiosis with them. Trees figure prominently in our deepest spiritual beliefs as the World Tree and the Tree of Life, representing connection with spiritual realms and to the natural world. They are guardians and protectors with deep wisdom and patience.
