"It is only when we are fully rooted that we are really able to move.”
~Madeleine L'Engle: A Wind in the Door
Doctrine of Signatures
Indigenous people and shamans have journeyed and communicated with the realm of plants for thousands of years. Another way that plants have communicated with us is by use of intuition and imagination.
The plants give us signs to what is in their nature: their intelligence, their essence.
If we choose, we can start listening to the song, the energy, and the signs of the plants to rediscover how much we are like them and how much they have to teach us. They are our allies in healing. The signs are there for us to see - we just need to observe.
