The water nymph, a feminist.
Nypmphaea stands for gender fluidity & equality
Enter the somatic drift
It thrives in community
Yet is dictated by no individual authority
Catch the echo of its threat signals pass as hormones through the roots
Communication strengthens the lily neighbourhood
If kept wyld at heart, the lily is a co-species activist
This gender-neutral or gender-fluid entity self reproduces
Query queerish vitalism
She relies not on patriarchy, he relies not on matriarchy
One day she is female, one day he is male, all-ways whole & wholesome
Sexually agile & adaptive, sexually capable & confident
There is movement & tone to the intricacies of the sexual organs
Highly receptive
Moving across the water-terra, flowers capable of mobility
There is age-old movement in foot, en-root
Grounded & fluid, rooted & mobile
Thousand year old cells; cloning, passing on
So otherworldly, that it becomes profoundly earthly
Something hidden in plain view
What does the water nymph have to teach you?
+ Community & communication (interkinnection)
+ Gender fluidity (untamed, unashamed)
+ Sexual & sensual movement (awaken taste & pleasure)
+ Heart opening (process grief & allow bliss)
+ Adapt & move towards multiple options of change
+ Ethereal remembrance
You can work with the Blue Water Lily in a few ways; tincture, flower essence, or dry herb.
