12 – Friendship

Bell Vine, Yellow Rose (Ipomoea biflora, Rosa hemisphaerica)

Keyword: Companionship

Friendship is a natural human trait that involves companionship and mutual support. It flourishes when people with common interests come together, allowing them to share and grow together. True friendship is built on love, trust, and support, and it encourages self-reflection on the intentions behind our connections with others.

This essence was created from the bond between a delicate white bell-shaped flower and the vibrant yellow rose. Initially the two botanicals were harmonious than the bell vine overtook the rose, suffocating the friendship. The yellow rose struggles to accommodate the overzealous vine.

This essence invites self-reflection on the motives and intentions behind your friendships, encouraging examination of unhealthy dependencies and fears of isolation. Above all, it reminds us to be a true friend to ourselves, embracing our own company and nurturing our inner connection.

Love and truth are the glue for forming deep, authentic relationships based on trust, mutual respect, and love.
