The flowers presented here grow on Fogo Island in Ktaqmkuk / Newfoundland. The ‘botanical dews’ or flower essences made from these flowers are also shaped by this place, and through the land and the elements that move here. As invocations of deep time and beauty, flowers seem to emerge from a subtle realm, with a natural affinity for the life of the soul.
Through the support of a flower’s unique form of intelligence - a coherence of light, colour, geometry, gesture, vitality and presence, there is an opportunity to invite attention inward, communicating through the language of spirit in feeling and energy.
This work links the rhythms of the body, and the human internal landscape to nature. The flowers listed here are organized by ecoregion and interpreted in relation to elemental patterns and corresponding functions within the body. If you feel drawn to a particular flower, allow that to take precedence over any information or organizational structure presented.
And aren’t they all doing the same: only containing themselves,
if to contain oneself means: to transform the world outside
and wind and rain and patience of spring
and guilt and restlessness and disguised fate
and darkness of earth at evening
all the way to the errancy, flight, and coming on of clouds
all the way to the vague influence of the distant stars
into a handful of inwardness.
Now it lies free of cares in the open roses.
- Last stanza from Rilke’s poem ‘Bowl of Roses‘
