Chaos Witch Rising

Spiritual gardening at home is a wonderful earth connection ritual. The red willow tree is a symbol of resilience. An entirely new tree can grow from a single branch. When done mindfully, planting is a spiritual practice.

Reconnecting with nature is reconnecting with your spirit. The energy of the fire horse this year is powerful, and yes, chaotic. The red bark of this willow branch honors that fire, that passion, that drive. And planting it within the soil represents alignment. A mindfulness technique to stay balanced. Gardening is also perfect for relieving stress and anxiety.

In reconnecting with nature, I found that plants LOVE green calcite! So I always use it during the initial planting. It’s also great for plants that need some extra love.

The Empress is a nurturing energy that represents our earth connection. She embodies the idea that reconnecting with nature is a spiritual, healing practice.

I am planting her in a pot for now, until she is a little bigger and stronger. The deer here love to munch willows, so she needs extra protection until she can hold her own in the ground.
