Build a bouquet to channel creativity 💐
Flower power, baby!
Hey, peach.
Did you know that every flower has its own magickal meaning and attribution? Yep, for real. Since we're in the cycle of May's flower moon, I thought we'd channel that flower power.
Bringing fresh flowers and greenery into your workspace is mega for creativity. It's also great for your mental health, too.
So, let's blend science with magick and build our own bouquets to invite creativity, uplift the mood, and invigorate the soul!
Don't worry if you aren't into flowers — I've included some fresh herbs, plants, and woods in my list. You could bundle them together with a ribbon or baker's twine and get the same effect. Hell, you can even just buy a plant for your desk or windowsill! Whatever you like.
Don't forget that colours also have magickal properties. For maximum creativity and energy, build your floral colour palette with yellows, whites, reds, and oranges.
Choose your flowers and channel your chosen energy! ✌️

🌝 Flower Moon – 16th May
This is a big one, folks! The 2022 flower moon coincides with a total lunar eclipse — a phenomenon thought to amplify spellwork.
Traditionally, the flower moon is a time to sow the seed...in more ways than one 😉
This is a time for passion. Use it to bring your dream projects or goals into full bloom or to meditate on why you love what you do.
Is there anything you can do to attract more of what you're passionate about?
May 1st is also the sexy sabbat, Beltane. This fire festival is a celebration of abundance and fertility, making it the perfect excuse to send out a few more cold pitch emails or to reach out for collaborations.
