Lily of the Valley, brings happiness and is a symbol of purity, sweetness, humility & new life.
used as a heart tonic, often suspended in a liquor, also heals grief and emotional pain, treats gout. Lily of the Valley is toxic in pure form and shouldnt be ingested if you dont know how to prepare and dose it.
also known as the flower of Ostara
a french saint, leonard, gave up all woldly posessions and secluded himself in a forest to be alone with God. A fire breathing dragon didnt like leonard in the forest and burned his home in the forest. Many battles between leonard and the dragon finally ended with st leonard pushing the dragon out of the forest and he never retirned. weeds sprung from the ground where dragon’s blood was spilled and Lily of the Valley bloomed where leonards blood hit the ground.
Mary cried tears of Lily of the Valley at Christs’s death on the cross.
also called Jacob’s tears~which is a mix up between mary’s tears and should be Jacob’s ladder.
also is a symbol of the second coming of Christ.
If your lover gives you Lily of The Valley, they are truly sorry and want to be forgiven. It’s a true apology, Lily of the Valley is of purity and cannot enchant.
bad (untrue) myth believed by superstitious people, Lily of the Valley will make you die wihin the year if you touch it.
