Seed

The seed you plant is most fragile in the infant stage. It has to be cared for, tended to daily, hydrated, and sometimes cut in the right places so it can grow with strength and blossom with fruit.

Water your dreams, bury your losses, celebrate your wins, cut loose ends, learn from your mistakes, and rose like a Phoenix.  

Symbolism:

• Green embraces change, stimulates empathy & healing & vibrates selfless love.
  
• White signifies humility, innocence & peace, & draws upon one’s connection to their spiritual source & inner child.
