​Floriography is the language of flowers, which was an Victorian-era means of communication.

In this, various flowers and floral arrangements were used to send coded messages, allowing individuals to express feelings which otherwise could not be spoken. The language was most commonly communicated through Tussie-Mussies, an art which has a following to this day.

Even though the nuances of the language are now mostly forgotten, red roses still imply passionate, romantic love and pink roses a lesser affection. Similarly white roses suggest virtue and chastity and yellow roses still stand for friendship or devotion.

Also some of the other commonly known meanings for flowers are sunflowers, which can indicate either haughtiness or respect and Gerbera (Daisy) can mean innocence or purity. The iris, being named for the messenger of the gods in Greek mythology, still represents the sending of a message. A pansy can signify thought, daffodil signifies regard, and a strand of ivy signifies fidelity.

​In this way, communicating messages by using flowers was something that was frequently done during medieval times.

Now, do keep in mind that   Florigraphy is a special interpretation of what messages a particular flower should communicate. These do not necessarily have a direct co-relation with how flowers can be used to communicate natural-energy messages. Flower Divination is an entirely different approach to understanding and interpreting Nature-Wisdom (i.e. messages from the natural world).

How flowers are used in oracle wisdom... their divination-interpretation is completely different from Victorian Florigraphy and is something that has been practiced by many ancient cultures since time immemorial!!

Even though we are on a spiritual path, most of us still have everyday jobs and duties. Unless you are living the life of a monk in a monastery, you probably are someone, who needs to earn an income and take care of your family.

​Folks like us, who live an everyday life have to also interact not just with friends and family- but also with many other people in the outside world, who may be living successful lives but could be unaware of their connected-ness to others and this cosmos!
 
This is exactly the reason, why I provide several helpful information that can help us in living comfortably! If you have not still seen our videos or read our articles on Comfort & Spiritual Living, then be sure to check them out.

As we know, all days are not the same. Certain days just seem to go smooth where things seem to flow in a nice manner and then there are other days where getting even the simplest thing done seems like a big achievement! 

Intuitively derived energy readings can help us to understand- what kind of energies are most probable for the day. 

The best time to utilize an Intuitive Guidance is when you need to understand "more" about a situation- for e.g. you are scheduled to attend an interview. In this case, an intuitive guidance can help you to understand more about the situation. How can you create a better impression or is there something that you need to do, so as to ensure a higher chance of success.

​Intuitive guidance can sometimes also give an indication to the outcome of the interview (i.e. if you will receive an offer /not), but it is not advisable to know that in advance, since then you will not do your best but your actions will be clouded by your knowledge of the outcome- if it is positive, you may take things for granted and thus invite failure and if  it is negative, then you may lose hope and not put your  hundred percent effort and turn around a losing situation to  a successful one.

​As people who are on the path of Conscious Living (i.e. those who choose to lead an aware and meaningful life)- we should not believe in some ‘destiny’ and succumb to fate but believe in taking appropriate action in accordance to the situation and energies surrounding it.   

After all, we live in a dynamic and living Universe, which responds to our actions and accordingly brings situations and transformations in our life!

The more you are living a conscious and evolved life, that much more, you will be able to govern how your life and life events unfold.
​
So now the question comes up, how do we ‘divine’ about any situation or event in our life? Stay tuned… I will cover that shortly in the coming posts…

There are many astrologers, psychics and pundits who say- that they can accurately predict the future. And it is possible that they can be correct in some instances.
​
But then, probability is a fact and there are always the odds of an event occurring, that someone can guess or intuit to find out about its outcome. Though, determining the correct result, the exact outcome each time in advance, is just not possible in this dynamic, evolving and ever-transforming universe!!

If you have not already read this article, then do check it out. It will help you to understand how destiny and freewill operate in our life.

​We need to remember that, there is no set future which can be determined in a fatalistic way. As mentioned above, it is true that there are certain scenarios/events and situations which are bound to happen (given the strong karmic tendencies around them), but to say that you will experience such and such situation  on any given day or during such period in your life, is to be 'reactive to life'. 

Instead what is more helpful is to proactively understand the type of energies that surround a certain day or a certain situation. I.e. what kind of events, behaviors and so on have the most chances or probabilities of showing up around us. 

Then depending on what it is that one is looking to accomplish and that particular event or situation, one can choose to respond in a best possible manner.
​
This way, you are responding to the Universe and not simply reacting to it. This is extremely important for each one of us who are on the path of Conscious Living.

A Shaman can go into a trance like meditative state, wherein they are able to communicate with the older spirits and gain insight into a problem scenario and also obtain guidance and solutions for solving the situation.   

Shamans can connect and communicate with the spirit guides who help their community by showing the right path in life to the ones, lost to the natural ways of life and also heal the sick by using various herbs, plants and the spirit energy. In this regard, a Shaman elder can play the essential role of a Medicine man- a Medicine healer in their community.

​The role of a Medicine-man (Shaman-healer) or of a Shaman-oracle is of much responsibility. It is essential for proper growth and sustenance of the entire community (their tribe). Because of this, this role rightly obtains much respect from the community. It needs the shaman elder to lead a life of piety, devotion and connection with the natural world and our own essential nature of existence.

A shaman could get messages from animal spirit and totems. They could do such divination for a specific individual or for their community. Similarly, they can “divine” guidance for a specific event or about the energy-trends that are existing and effecting an individual (or their community).

A Shaman’s oracle methods can seem intricate to us- but they need years of devoted service and connection with the natural world as well as the spirit realms to develop a true and deep ability to tap into the ‘divine guidance’.

​And after doing that, they then need to bring the essence of their interaction to us as their divined and intuitive guidance.

We humans are very peculiar in our approach to our life and the life-situation. When we do something that seems to give good results, we like to claim that it is “I” who did such and such task.

​But by the same token when something we do does not give us our desired result we try to find someone else to blame… this could be other people around you- family, friends, coworkers, even ex-friends, old bosses… any ‘scape goat’ we can find to point the blame to… and of course if we still are not able to find anything- then we blame the government, our destiny, even God and so on…

But we need to remember that, every single thing that happens in our life, happens because of us- if your karma did not need for you to experience it, then quite simply you would not!! Ultimately, we are responsible for all that happens to us, around us. 
​
Now this could be at a conscious level or it could be happening at an unconscious level- which will then come across as ‘destiny’. Either ways, we are ultimately responsible. 

After all, there are all kinds of situation happening each day all over the world. Many good and many more terrible things happen each day- but they happen outside of our frame of reference. Why? Because it is not meant to be part of our experience.

Does that mean I believe in a ‘fated destiny’ and do not believe in free-will. Not at all. In fact if there was no free will then what would be the point of karma!! 

In the west, people think of karma as the feedback or what is manifested. Karma means action- there are various ways in which karma can be performed and if you have not checked out those articles then please do so…

When a karma is repeated over time then it becomes a samskara, which is a type of memory. 

As we know when we continuously perform a certain action, we develop a type of memory which helps us to perform that action without any conscious intervention. This is the reason athletes or musicians’ practice so much. They keep rehearsing, practicing, performing that same action so many times- where it ultimately becomes their muscle memory.

​Then during the championships or in a concert hall in the presence of huge crowds and when they are under tremendous pressure, even though their minds can feel a bit perturbed, once they are actually performing the action- it could be the game or playing music;  they seem to be doing it in a ‘zone’.

​Their muscle memory takes over and they conduct a flawless performance! 

This can be muscle memory, genetic memory and so on.

So what happens is that when you perform a karma, i.e. an action, the first time around you do it with a conscious intent- because you want to create a certain outcome. But then, when you keep doing it, then it becomes a habit and then you keep doing it even when you do not want that outcome or that behavior is very detrimental to you!!

Now we know that every action has its own outcome. Even simple actions have their outcome, for e.g. if you eat good nutritious food you will feel energized and by the same token if you eat bad food then you will have an upset stomach. 

So if now you were to look at this complete scenario then you will see that karma creates outcome and over time it becomes memory- where things just seem to ‘happen’ i.e. you just seem to do things without any conscious intension or involvement. 

Bringing this to the concept of ‘fated destiny’ and ‘freewill’; you will see that karma is your free will and samskaras which is the memory, becomes the fated destiny!! 

You have a choice in how you perform any action- with consciousness or without consciousness, with love or without love and so on.

​When you perform the same action over time, it will become ‘karmic memory’ and then things will seem to happen (without your involvement- though, you are still the do-er, as it is your memory), making it seem like a destined event.

So, always keep in mind- that in a way, you do choose your destiny by your choice of action- i.e. Karma.

Because of this, if you do not like the “destined” outcome that is in store for you, then work on addressing and resolving the associated samskaras (memories) as well as make wise, helpful choices around what kind of action (karma) you will perform… how you will perform it and so on…
