The Magic and Beauty of
Chive Power
chive path...small but beautiful!
I know deep beneath the snow..these beautiful Pearls are coming to life..
and soon in the Spring..they will awaken and greet me...
What are you dreaming of this Spring??
I am dreaming of Chive Magic!
Beautiful
Dainty
Fragrant..
So Fairy-esque..
A sleepy Greenman
Dreams of Starry Pink Flowers..
The bees visit these pink pillows
and bounce from blossom to blossom
like poems in the sun..
Chives Pathway..has a special place
in my heart each Spring...
*
Do you have a special plant?
Chives are magical
*
There are various kinds..
Their scent is powerful
I love the scent of them...not everyone does!
*
Roses and Chives
Plant near Roses to enhance scent of roses....wow!
*
POWERFUL ally for roses..
and also helps deter aphids
Some bugs hate the smell of garlic/ onion /chives...
So it is very good to have in various parts of the garden...
it helps get rid of bugs..they seem to move on to somewhere else!
You can even create homemade bug spray for the garden...
made from chives and simply spray!
very smelly!
Chive Blossoms are beautiful and magical..
you may catch a glimpse of a faery or two sitting atop them
if you open your magical heart!
Chive Blossoms can be eaten...
As a child I ate flowers all the time..how I am still alive?..we are not sure!
Luckily Chive Blossoms are edible and safe!
ENJOY!
They look so pretty in a salad..or upon a plate..
Like jewels
Perfect for summer garden party!
From Dusty Pink to Purple hues
These Blooms are so gorgeous..I simply love to gaze at them
*
Spherical in shape..another power symbol to add to the garden!
They are like magical wands...adorning tall green spires!
Chives are wonderful eaten with any meal
or used as garnish
or even in an oil or vinegrette
In the garden..they are Pure Poetry
My Favorite Greenman
(whom you have met before.)..
holds the space well and protects them
Magic Symbolism
*
Chives represent and embody COURAGE
*
They invoke a sense of Courage if needed
and also represent Protection
Plant some chives to invoke Courage
and add and increase
Protection to your space
and to protect your garden and give it strength
*
Chive Meditation: To Invoke Courage
Take a piece of chive or a blossom
and smell to meditate on courage..
inhale and breathe peacefully
invoking that power
within your self and draw it out.
Feel the spirit of confidence and courage growing..
It is already there...
chive magic simply helps bring it to life.
Flowering Chives are easy to grow...
they come up each year..it is a treat to see!
A wondeful ally in the garden
and wonderful companion to the kitchen
Use fresh chives chopped up in salads, sandwiches
Herbed butters and spreads
*
Anything really.
YUM!
Although the flowers soon leave...
the chives will last
aaaall summer long..
and that's Forever
in garden-time!
*
