“Be the change that you wish to see in the world.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi
This might seem like a silly post in light of serious issues, but sometimes silly gets the point across much better than doom and gloom.
It’s January here in the Northern hemisphere. There’s snow on the ground and a sharp chill to the wind. No flowers in sight outside. What’s a crazy plant lady who loves flowers to do?! Be the flowers you wish to see in the world:

Sometimes you just need to make it happen.

And sometimes the Universe shows up with an $11 like new cashmere sweater at a secondhand shop you just happened to wander into in the middle of a snowstorm:

Blessed be, and be the blessing!
If you’re having trouble finding the blessings, you might want to try Adriene’s “Yoga for Gratitude” practice. I love every workout I’ve done of hers and felt led to the gratitude one a few days ago (4:44 right now as I type this). I can’t embed it, but you can find the video here. Highly recommended!

Even flowers printed on a t-shirt bring a smile and we can all use smiles these days! Thanks, Laura!

Thanks, Diana! No, they’re almost like canvas. I got them on a SUPER sale from Anthropologie.

There’s a connection here to flow, as in: you tagging the post with ‘gratitude flow’ and then it’s about FLOWers. Maybe we just need to surrender to that.

Hi Laura- I love your posts and offerings!!!! We met for a Taro reading & NNode last month. I’m in the AstroButterfly group but don’t contribute bcz I don’t know “what” I am – Wishing i could take in the info better by knowing my Sun, Moon, Rising etc….. how do I get up to speed with my astrological identity????? ❣️🧚❣️ AnneGhrist 2/21/1961

Thanks so much Anne! Lovely talking with you. You are a Pisces Sun, Taurus Moon, Gemini Rising. Virgo North Node. There are two astrology books I always recommend, “The Only Astrology Book You’ll Ever Need” by Joanna Woolfolk, and Jan Spiller’s “Astrology for the Soul.” Those would be good self study resources. I am always open to more astrology sessions, too. Just not sure if that’s what you’re asking here. There is ALWAYS more to learn — about yourself and about astrology. Even if you’ve studied astrology for decades, this becomes even more true. 🙂 ❤
