The Symbolic Magic of a Garden

Do you ever look at your garden and space with Symbolism or relate to your plants in a Magical way?
They are filled with energy, colorscapes and symbols and shapes, wisdom, history!
They are filled with sacred geometries and ancient hidden languages!
They tell stories and speak in magical ways!
Take a look around at the magic in your space
I will posting a series on this subject!

The
S p h e r e
*
This Gorgeous Blue Sphere
Makes me think of CREATION
and how Spherical-Energy moves in all directions at once!

To live a spherical life..is creative, and full of energy and magic!
Orbs are full of energy and magic,
They are strong, solid yet vibrate in an open, free and flowing energy.
The shape is also a powerful symbol of
WHOLENESS
and
HARMONY
*
Add the Power of Spherical Energy to your space!
(Plus the bees LOVE these Blue Globe Echinops!)



What's in a Name?

S A G E


The Power of SAGE in any garden brings
W I S D O M


Sage is
healing,
magical
and
deliscious!
*
I love the shape of their leaves..
elongated and oval yet pointed at the tip..
like a Guiding Arrow of Wisdom.
I will follow this arrow anywhere.
...it is sure to bring knowledge.
*
Sage Carries The
W I S D O M
OF THE
ANCIENTS
*
I think of Sage as a Plant "Guide" or Guardian
and the Wisdom and Beauty of Sage 
makes me feel strong and energized
and empowered everytime I am near it!
Do you have a favorite plant totem or guide?

Roses are
Eternal
Poetic
Romantic

ROSES
are
SPELLBINDING
*
Roses are Keepers of Memory
Roses are Infinite

Every garden must have
a Rose!


and every garden must have
Some
Rose Quartz Crystals
Rose Quartz brings
LOVE,
HARMONY,
BEAUTY,
JOY

It is very Soothing, Calming and Healing.
I love having Rose Quartz in the Garden
It is Magical and brings Harmony
*


I Love special crystals and stones in the garden

Love Lies Bleeding: The Spell of Amaranthus


L o v e
L i e s
B L E E D I N G

The Spell
Of
A M A R A N T H U S

I have been taken..
I am
B E W I T CH ED

I am wandering the
Inbetween place
where
love lies bleeding..
where 
velvet-red-ropes entangle me


I am Spellbound
Lost in the
F o r e v e r
of an
Amaranthus Dream


Have you fallen under it's spell yet?


Are You Bewitched with Amaranthus?
Are you Wandering the Inbetween with me?
****
Awake with Charm and Spirit
***
You may Wish  to Visit
The Mystique of Love Lies Bleeding
(last year's spotlight)
To see if you are an
Amaranthus Guardian
If you have the Soul of the Victorian era,
like Gothic Gardens 
and if you know any Vampires of course....


Happy Gardening..any Amaranthus Kindreds this year?
would LOVE to see your photos
~Kiki~

Tell-Tale Signs you are
A Guardian of Amaranthus
~Victoria Pettella~




1~You Love "Transformation Factor" in a plant

2~You are Wild at Heart, even Exotic in some way

3~You secretly write poetry

4~You know Vampires or are One yourself

5~You fancy the Victorian Era

6~You admire unobvious beauty, you appreciate the rare and even odd aspects of things.

7~You Love good stories and appreciate plants that have good storylines.

8~You are mysterious, you have a powerful sense of imagination

9~You have a Romantic and Creative nature

10~You yourself are a rare, unique soul and have a strong unstoppable inner spirit

11~You feel protective of unwanted things and make a special home for them to belong in always.

12~You are a child at heart and love the enchantment in all things

13~Most important: Even if you hate the color red , you somehow cannot help but be mesmerized by this gorgeous red dazzling creature and you must have it at all costs.
So now that you know...tell me the truth..do you love it or hate it? Are you one of the Guardians and Keepers of the rare and unwanted, the beautiful and exotic? I'd love to know either way. Don't worry, I won't be offended, for I am part-Amaranthus-Soul after all and nothing can break our kind. Nothing at all.
Victoria~
