#is... there a book on flower meanings?

Lilia of (Briar) Valley = Lily of the Valley

Lily of the Valley is one of my fave flowers.

Lilia Vanrouge just encapsulates the meaning of the flower:

Motherhood - the love he has for Malleus and Silver, does it really need to be said? He literally went from “kids are annoying” to “I miss those day when” when he mentions the boys.

Joy and Love - the love he has for meleanor and Levan, the love it took to hatch Malleus and wake Silver, his ability to change because of it, etc.

Purity of Heart and Soul - his younger self might say otherwise, but despite it all, he gave Silver and co a chance to leave and he protected them and fed them during a time of war. When humans by all means should have been hated even if it is a dream

New Beginnings - someone who literally changed, General Lilia Vanrouge to Lilia Vanrouge (the father)

Sympathy for the Departed - His grief for meleanor and Levan, yes, but I also raise you Knight of Dawn and Princess Leia as well. ‘Fae and humans are alike. We just want to protect the ones we love.’

Life’s Purpose - In short, how he changed from General Vanrouge to Lilia Vanrouge. He has a purpose, it’s his family.

Death - if the flower is eaten, it can cause death. You know, like Lilia, with his hatchet (he wouldn’t even need it, his bare hands are enough)

Um! But yes! I do have different emotions towards these three! (,,>﹏<,,) Hopefully, you can help! While I am grateful for all...

Yara: Are there flowers for... Overcoming hardships? Maybe resilience? Purity... Strength. Perseverance.

Rey: Patience. Warmth. Joy. Peace. Love-

Ronnie: Kindness. Protectiveness. Safety.

Hello, Lene! It's been a while. (´｡• ◡ •｡`) ♡

A while ago I received a beautiful painting of Eishi in the mail from @kitsoa!! I've been meaning to post pictures of it but I so rarely have physical objects I wanted a proper photoshoot to do it justice <3

When I first saw this I was absolutely blown away by the colors. These magenta-maroon hues aren't ones I associate with urban cityscapes at all and yet it's beautiful and dreamlike. There are a lot of poignant moments of loneliness in this series and this piece really captures that feeling, in my opinion. I almost feel like crying when I look at it sometimes. Kitsoa just has a way with color I can never hope of coming close to; I often look at her artworks and think, "Ah, her brain's just wired in a fundamentally different way from mine." (NOT a lamentation btw-- I consider it a blessing that we are put on this earth to show each other pictures of that which the other could not conceive of)

I have it up on my wall with sticky tack (didn't want to put tape on the front in case it got damaged when I inevitably have to move away) and I look at it all the time. I love it so much!! Thank you!!

consumed by love, i attach myself to you

do you think that chuuya went to visit their graves before he left for meursault? do you think he does it everytime he leaves for a longer mission? do you think he learnt what flowers live longer so they wouldn't die when he's away? do you think he picked up gardening bc of that...

I forgot how to make posts, but don’t worry guys, I’m still alive-

Heyyy! I finally drew Leaf! (Plus a slight Aster redesign-) This took way too long, and I apologize for the delay and the overall messiness. She had been sitting in my drawing program as a sketch for two months 😅 but with the Flashbacks up starting in Missing Numbers, I finally got the will to finish it!

Leaf Aoyama belongs to @creatively-cosmic. They have a blog called @themissingnumbers, which you should check out, like—right now.

[Sketch + Extras below the cut!]

Here’s the cover of the book, if you wanted that- (I know it’s crap but I’m tired)

[And for those who are curious, some notes about the art:

-The book is Aster’s. He’s read the book cover to cover well over 25 times. It’s his favorite book on flowers, but he’s more than happy to lend it to someone who wants to learn about flora.

-The content of the art (because there was intended to be a background that got scrapped-) is that Aster was showing Leaf around his secret garden deep in the woods, guiding her so that she wouldn’t get lost and showing her the different flowers and such. (That’s why she has the book-)

-You know how in some video games, you can press a button and whatever special companion you have will show up to give you a hint? (Ex: Navi, Fi, Rotom, Olivia, etc) That’s what Aster is doing right now. Whenever Leaf had a question—he had the answers.

-And if you’re wondering—Yes. Aster did make her a flower crown afterwards. And Yes, he thinks she looks very beautiful with flowers in her hair.]

Lost in the Book with Stitch Flower Language:

🌺Hibiscus🌺: 

General meaning: You are perfect, delicate beauty, youth, fame, joy, happiness, and personal glory. Hawaii’s state flower.

Pink: rare beauty, love and care, more of platonic love.

Red: love, desire, passion, youth, beautiful. In hinduism, can represent the goddess Kali, who represents life, time, death, and change.

Yellow: cheerfulness, positive self-image, self empowerment.

White: enlightenment, I respect you,  you belong here, healing progression, belonging.

Orange: spirituality, purity, enlightenment, and divine grace. Promotes emotional balance, calmness, and physical healing.

Purple (??? not sure on this one, it could be a darker shade of pink but included anyways): wealth, royalty, wisdom, and knowledge.

Fun Facts bout the Hibiscus: 

Greek mythology:  Adonis would turn into the hibiscus flower to stop the quarrel between Aphrodite and Persephone.

Orange Hibiscus in a Dream: represents creative energy, growth, and passion. It is a reminder that you have the power to create your own life. Dreaming of an orange hibiscus indicates you might be undergoing a spiritual awakening or that you need to pay attention to the guidance and signs of the universe. Can also indicate a sense of joy, positivity, and optimism. Additionally, it can also express confidence and empowerment in your personal and professional endeavors. (This is literally book 7 in a flower).

Orange Hibiscus symbolism: Some culture, it represents the Sun God and represents the energy and vitality of the of the life-giving sun. (Funny because Lilia has been in a lot of Sun events 😂).

Medicine: Teas using this can interfere with blood pressure and diabetic meds. Which is interesting because Silver chose Foxglove in the Bunny Event, which helps with cardiac output.
