New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Color of the day: Indigo
Incense of the day: Magnolia A birth, a death, a parting of ways or a coming together-these are milestones in our lives that deserve to be acknowledged in a sacred way. Why not create a butterfly garden to honor a significant event? The butterfly is a magical totem for inspiration in times of transformation. Their beautiful rainbow colors and lofty dance reflect our ability to transcend and fly free. Pick an open, sunny area and begin by planting a buddleia (a butterfly bush) at the back border of your garden plot. Trail a fragrant honeysuckle vine along the fence or a trellis. For an instant garden buy two-gallon perennials such as bee balm, lobelia, black-eyed Susans, and purple cone flower. Bright annuals like zinnias and cosmos will delight butterflies, and anything bright red will also attract hummingbirds, who are harbingers of joy. |
