OLD WISTERIA:
Old Wisteria’s serine and stunning purple blossoms sway low below her branches. They overlap, creating a waterfall of pedals with a sweet fragrance that induces comfort. The purple hues of her flowers reflect off her unique twisted trunk. She symbolizes not just beauty but support, love, sensitivity and a long life. She focuses more on supporting others rather than realizing the support she needs. Over time, her branches and blossoms begin to weigh her down. Overwhelming anxiety and insecurities add to that heaviness. With the lack of support, Wisteria would fall. That is exactly what did not happen. Beams were placed to support Wisteria from the threat of her own body and mind. She has an amazing support of other women, uplifting and encouraging her to continue showing off her inner and outer beauty. Old Wisteria has a kind and strong spirit. She has always been there for so many others. They would like to return the favor. With the encouragement of women, Wisteria continues to grow in elegance and beauty. Old Wisteria reminds us that with all the negative energies that weigh us down, there is always someone there to lift you up.
