Wild Rose Flower Essence
What feels special is how intensely prickly this bush is compared to all my regular garden roses. She feels very protective of the magic she so clearly holds. Then watching a small bee land on a flower and get intimately up in her business, was fascinating to contemplate. I felt called to make a flower essence by infusing the flowers in local purified water through solar infusion (similar to the process that happens when dewdrops form on flowers when the sun begins to rise) capturing their powerful energy. So many of us have been trusting and then hurt, causing us to erect barricades around our heart. Wild rose can help us understand how to protect our tender heart from those without good intentions, but simultaneously allow connection and love with those who seek to uplift us!
Flower essences are made by carefully collecting the flowers early in the morning when they still have dew, and placing them into a bowl of spring water. The bowl sits in the sun with no shadows crossing for several hours, then the flowers are strained out and no plant material remains. The energetic imprint of the plant seeps into the water and makes it possible for us to utilize these beneficial energetic properties. This water is then diluted and preserved in part vegetable glycerin, part extra smooth brandy, and part local filtered water.
