Celebrating the May Blossom!! Folklore has fairie Celebrating the May Blossom!! 
Folklore has fairies dancing beneath her branches, healers whistper prayers into her blossoms before turning them into heart medicine.

Hawthorn brings us out of our heads and into our heart!  Whether you’re heartbroken, need to grieve, or just listen to your heart’s wisdom, hawthorn grounds you in your heart centre. Make a delicious tincture that tastes of marzipan by steeping the blooms in brandy for 2-3 weeks. 

Right now, hedgerows across the UK are bursting with hawthorn’s soft white blooming magic.

And we’re marking the moment… This Tuesday, May 13th, @polyfalmouth join us for a special screening of “The Healing Herb”  where we celebrate the stories, medicine, and deep-rooted power of plants like hawthorn.

Come for some folklore and medicine, leave feeling a little more held by the land.

 All details to get tickets are in my bio — mark your calendar for Tuesday, and let yourself go wild for the evening 😉🌻… You don’t have to figure this all out alone. The plants are right here with us.

This artwork is from The Sensory Herbal Oracle, my collaboration with the @seed_sistas 🌿

…Because pulling a plant card can bring you stra …Because pulling a plant card can bring you straight back to Earth.

Plantain is your ally in steadiness.
She whispers: “Don’t rush. Keep it simple, keep your feet on the ground.”

When life feels tangled or loud, drawing a card like this is a way back to yourself.
To stillness.
To Earth.

Hours sat beside Plantain, sketchbook in hand, slowing down to the rhythm of the Earth. This card, from the Sensory Herbal Oracle, is born from those quiet, grounded moments.

Illustrated with deep care by @bellebenfield and created by the @seed_sistas this deck is a portal into a more rooted life.

Every plant was lovingly studied; sketched and re-sketched in real time, not just imagined. That intimacy lives in the artwork, and you’ll feel it when you hold the cards in your hands.

If you’ve been yearning for more groundedness in your practice or a way to deepen your plant connection, let the Sensory Herbal Oracle be your guide.

🌱 Buy the deck now through the link in bio and start sharing your life with plants...
You’re not alone in this.
