Herbiary Oracle Card Pull - 12/4/23

[krakendelsur]

"Trillium is a rare jewel brightening the forest floor, quietly watching the darkness. She's not waiting for ghouls or ghosts. She fears nothing in these dim-lit woods. No, Trillium is waiting on the first fleeting sparks of new life. Come, she says, drawing you deeper into the consciousness of the trees, let's see what shall be born! While she's been awaiting births for millenia, Trillium's recently developed her invisibility, quietly blending into leaf mulch and fern patches, the dark places where ideas are incubated. On the edge of the abyss of all and nothing, shes ready to ease the transition from spirit to matter. Trillium helps with births; she often sees the first spark when other eyes still see darkness."

Trillium grandiflorum

FYI: Trillium, as an herbal medicine, can be used to alleviate menstrual symptoms and to aid in childbirth...which is likely why it's also commonly referred to as "birthroot". It's also used as an antispasmodic, antiseptic, expectorant, astringent, and a diuretic.
