Pattern Peony in Flower Pot

Cute Peony in Flower Pot. A beautiful gift idea for Mothers Day or as a toy for the little ones to play planting with.

In indian culture plants are seen as personified gods, devas, that have a motherlike quality, as they are life-giving. Without them we could not exist.
As our human consciousness is changing we also find back to our literal roots. This way we are rediscovering the divinity of plants, instead of seeing them as primitive life forms.
Plants are whole beings, which are connected to the sun with their leafs. Their invisible soul is stretched out into the universe, absorbing the energy of the sun. At the same time they are physically connected to mother earth with their roots. Through their wholeness they can bring us, often incomplete feeling humans, healing.
