The Tarot Flowers

I am a simple earth woman who loves all species –my best friends have feathers, fins, fur, petals and leaves.

I see the Tarot everywhere, it is the spirit of all things living, evolving, even as we evolve daily, shaping itself into songs of understanding and grace.

Where she touches me deepest and her songs are the clearest, is in the wild woods. Here, the tarot can always be read in the language of nature and flowers. The flowers speak of the cards in the deck-the Tarot Lives around us. We can hear the flowers’ songs in our souls, if we but listen with quiet hearts,

Amaryllis (Strength) Deep spiritual red, standing above all others, waving her midnight crimson flags of victory, emboldening us to seize the day! Be brave and make changes.

Chicory (The Star) stands elegantly delicate on upright stems. Celestial bluish purple star like flowers, spiral in tendrils around her. Rising up hopeful and spring eternal, gently looking forward.
.
Crimson Clovers (The Lovers) stand close together, embracing and entwining until they become one.

The Foxglove Digitalis (Judgment), bears pink and spotted trumpets—heralding memories of an old friends and family who left earth much too early, a bittersweet song of tribute. Messages from the ancestors.

Sage (The Sage/High Priest) sees clearly… Waving magnificent pillars of red and blue flowers high, a scepter of petals, a tower of fiery inspiration and wisdom. Look to pursue education and enlightenment.

Moonflowers and morning Glories spin open their petals as Wheel of Life and Fortune cycles through our lives. Each day a chance to begin again, leave the past behind.

Angelica (The Empress) brings magnificent richness to life. Her graceful arching roots, deeply nourishing and nurturing, rest with her and renew you spirit.

Rue (The Magician) exotic, pungent, funky, sporting green fully yellow flowers that reflect the sun turning the flowers into light. Unique and uncommon, all the creativity in you seeks expression in the world. Paint, write, and dance!

Light pours from the heavens, lighting the leaves with the spiritual fires, of transformation, transmutation, regeneration and opening our cosmic wisdom. At the entrance to the woods lies a flat rock marked with a runic symbol, so ancient, no one living remembers its name.

It is the symbol of the faeries that guard these woods, a sign of their presence and an invitation to dance the forest paths.

Which flowers will walk with you today?

What songs of love will the woods whisper to your soul?

The next time you feel the need for quiet guidance, spend some time in nature and see which flowers come to speak with you.

The Tarot Flowers will gift you with guidance and grace.
