The essence of Marigold is an incredibly powerful ally for connecting to the power of our ancestral and spiritual lines. She holds a candle to the darkness, so that we can heal shadows, like shame and confusion, which can only exist when they're not witnessed.
Marigold also connects us to the wise intelligence of the feminine and her cycles, ushering us through times of change with grace. Like the Great Mother, she encapsulates us in her warm and protective light so that we can expand from our previously contracted states and lean into the flow that is available to us when we trust in our own becoming.
Remember, remember, people, places, and things remain alive until we stop talking about them. If you are suffering a great loss, honor what has passed by creating altars, keeping photos, and speaking to your dear love. If you are ready to let something go, create a ritual to lay it to rest and then let it be.
Don't repeatedly pick at your own wounds. Speak about the places that feel tender within you, let them be witnessed, and then give them the nourishment, sunlight, and space they need to heal. You don't have to hold on to your story forever.
