Brightening and refreshing- chamomile is an incredibly uplifting and positive flower! Popular in tea and in my own personal favorite, as an add in into my coffee with lavender- this flower is such an amazing way to start your day off feeling happy and bright!

Similar to feeling like a mini sun- it adds warmth and light into your life and also has the most pleasant, sweet and soft scent. Furthermore, with its white petals, it is linked to purity and innocence and is helpful in helping you tap into your inner child like energy, your hope and your optimism for what lies ahead!

In magical uses, if you infuse and soak chamomile in water, you can then use this enchanted spray to spread joy and energy into your home and aura (which is what I am planning on doing with my bouquet once it is dried). Its cheerful and clearing energy is highly protective and helps you shield yourself from negativity or darkness!

Arabella meaning “yielding to prayer” is my air plant I got  at Mod Gen in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. (Such a cute store if you have never been or are in the area). I named her before I knew what the name meant- and like a lot of “random” thoughts or things, it reflected and confirmed my intuition and path. I have personally begun praying and openly talking to God, the Goddess and my angels and guides even more than I already do- and she is a physical reminder and reinforcement of this powerful connection and ritual.

She is also ironically, the first plant I have ever named, which is funny considering I have quite a few. But she was also the first I felt really wanted to be named/have an identity and a message to tell me. 

Prior to getting her, I didn’t know that air plants actually bloom or “blush” as it is also called. I felt so lucky to see her blossom in all of her pink and purple glory. It was also amazing cause when I first got her (pictured in front of my Taurus Goddess painting)- I thought the light pink was the extent of her bloom- so to see her continue to grow, become a bright and vibrant pink, and then reveal purple petals too during my birthday month- was such a blessing. 

A Little Fun Fact: Air plants don’t need soil because they typically grow in nature on other plants or trees- and are as such considered epiphytes!
