[ORANGE DREAMS + BATHING IN NATURE FOR MY MENTAL WELLBEING]
In some cultures, orange is the colour of creativity, sexuality, joy, enthusiasm, and promotes a general sense of mental wellness. Orange hues are said to increase and aid personal power, self-esteem, and confidence. Orange is often used in west African fabric, and artistry, in particular the most famously known, the Ghanaian kente cloth. Orange spiritual affects emotional balance, sexuality, inner peace, passion, freedom, intuition, and clear expression of emotions.
Orange lilies in particular symbolize confidence, pride, and wealth.
Lilies also have a long history of being used for medicinal purposes, and some species can be used in cooking. On this gorgeous late summer day, I basked in the beauty of the blooming floppy orange petals, that gently touched my cheek from time to time. This was just the right amount of flower therapy I needed to get me through the week!
What colours are you drawn to for uplifting, or creative inspiration?
These are the thought of an African wildflower wishing you all a beautiful Sunday.
