Daughter of Sea and Soil

Daughter of Sea and Soil. My personal nature-based practice is built around reciprocity, generosity,honesty, and creativity. Somewhere between a green, kitchen, and sea witch.

I’m both pro herbal medicine and pro vaccination because you can treat burns with aloe vera juice and sore throats with lavender infused honey but you can’t rid a country of polio with plants.

The Signs and Gardens II:

Aries: A high window on the housing block. Slender orchids sprout from glass bottles packed with ash and soil, strung like wind chimes from the balcony above. The sun rises through colored glass.

Taurus: An abandoned amusement park. Wild mint and honeysuckle grow between the ties in rollercoaster tracks. A patch of cultivated wild ginger behind the midway games.

Gemini: An empty concrete pool. Dandelions and thistle sprout from the cracks, scars bleeding white and purple.

Cancer: A garden shed, paint faded to the same color as the sky. Rusted tools lean against soft wood. The orange cat that made her home beneath the dry sink.

Leo: A Mojave dawn. Wild licorice and prickly pear cling to the impression of some ancient undersea trench. Hills of heavy stone, worn smooth by the wind.

Virgo: A vegetable garden, drowned and teeming with river grasses. Valley copses turned to ponds when the old stone aquifer overflowed.

Libra: The deep woods. Honey drips from shaded ash boughs upon a patch of white yarrow, grown golden and strong.

Scorpio: A road flanked by coniferous trees. Cattails sprout from the trunks of cars where the spring melt set in. Black stone parts for bouquets of daisy and asplenium.

Ophiuchus: An orchard nestled in the valley shade. Crabapples dashed, fallen ripe on old brick planters. A visitors stand, full of baskets at the ready, sign faded in the soft morning fog.

Sagittarius: The water-wheel still. Young river birch and dogwood growing wild. Morning cloak butterflies dance, skimming the surface of the overflowing well.

Capricorn: Frost blankets an old park square overrun with winter onion. A kestrel eats beneath the aluminum slide, staining the snow red. A stag watches with disinterest as it nuzzles the earth for pale stalks.

Aquarius: The greenhouse of a grand estate. Overgrowth flows from broken glass and worn cobble. Rare and delicate things creep into old rain-soaked parlors.

Pisces: A full moon over a quiet wood. Concrete long overrun with grasses. The mouth to an old subway sits yawning, drinking in the rain. Mushrooms cling to the walls, growing from between the slats of the rusted escalator.

We're getting at least 18 cm of snow over the next two days - a lot for Germany. So 'll spend the afternoon reading and learning about snow magic

I need to reconnect with my practice

Not gonna lie, one of the reasons is that I have the feeling my cooking and baking suffers when I'm not connected to it
