Mason bee (possibly Osmia texana) on bull thistle. Handsome greenish blue bees that do well living the bee hotel lifestyle. As I offer more nest sites I find them in ever increasing numbers during June and July. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~#masonbee #osmia #bullthistle #bees #bugs #insects #macro #canonmacro #insects_of_our_world #mat_macro #kings_insects #found_on_flowers #macro_freaks #top_macro #macroclique #tgif_insects #macro_kings #photooftheday #beesofinstagram #pocket_insects #macro_brilliance #macro_perfection #top_macro #macro_highlight #macro_spotlight #electric_macro #igmw_macro

One of the beautiful, serotinal sights on my walk. Bull thistle in autumn dress. Everything seems to be changing, dying back or falling. It’s my favorite. 🌾🍃🍂🍃🌾 🍃🍂🍃🌾#thechroniclesoffarnia #thingssoamazeme #magic #wonder #bullthistle #serotinal #endofsummer #lovethis #changingseasons #autumn #fall #myfavorite ##beautiful #texture #thistle #fluff #stuff https://www.instagram.com/p/CiUGu1HuG9q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Bull Thistle

Bull Thistle is one of Ava's favorite wildflowers. Powerful and decisive, bull thistle is an essence of movement that is particularly impactful on the fourth and sixth chakras, and for this reason, it features in quite a few of our essence blends. Its effects can vary depending upon the other essences it is paired with, but it is always an essence of energetic movement and change. In the Going Farther blend, for example, bull thistle helps to trigger the heart and the third eye into action, encouraging personal growth. In the Shield blend, it works together with tiger's eye to strengthen the aura and give one the power to fight off negative energies. It works similarly in Voice of Courage, where it can help the timid or frequently bullied person to feel stronger, bolder, and more mighty. In Softness in Hardship, bull thistle is combined with Teasel and Canada Thistle to provide a balancing effect on the liver, helping the driven personalities among us to slow down and become softer, more affectionate, more playful. Of course, this powerful essence is also available as a single-flower essence, which we recommend for those who feel highly sensitive, weak-willed, lacking in courage, or excessively yin.
