“Resurrection Fern” ink 2023
Another piece from my Life from Death series. I love ferns. All ferns; all kinds of ferns. I’m not the best at taking care of them, but thankfully they often bounce back after a good soak. Here in the PNW, they even live under sewer grates, dying back in summer and coming back green when the rains return in the fall.

Tobacco is one of the most important Sacred Plants in Abya Yala, and in several cultures, it is used for medicinal and spiritual purposes. Its various forms of use range from Rapé to smoking tobacco, and these forms of use are also related to the four elements:
Rapé: Fire. Rapé is a medicine originating from the indigenous peoples of the Amazon in Brazil. Its preparation involves the use of tree barks, ashes, and powdered tobacco, and it is applied through the respiratory system. Among the qualities of this medicine is its ability to connect us with the present moment, clarify thoughts and emotions, and create greater awareness of our bodies and physical sensations. Shamans also use it to establish direct communication with spiritual dimensions. In terms of its health benefits, Rapé cleanses the respiratory pathways, helps with issues like sinusitis, and balances different chakras based on its components.
Liquid Tobacco: Water. Similar to Rapé, liquid tobacco is inhaled through the nose and has both physical and energetic benefits. It is commonly used to facilitate strong emotional processes within ceremonies like the Temazcal and to strengthen prayers. Its liquid form reminds us of the importance of allowing emotions and thoughts to flow, bringing clarity to the mind, body, and spirit. It is also used to cleanse the body, in many traditions tobacco purges are used to physically cleanse the body by drinking a tobacco tea that induces depuration through vomit or defecation.
Smoking Tobacco: Air. The smoke of tobacco signifies a connection to subtle dimensions and serves as a means of communication with subtle energies. Tobacco smoke is a great ally in energetic cleansings, traditional in regions like the Andes. The union of inhaling and exhaling symbolizes a connection with those who have consumed tobacco, whether in the present, past, or future. This connection reflects that everything expressed through tobacco should be authentic, truthful, and dedicated to the spirits, ancestors, and supernatural forces of the indigenous universe.
Ambil (tobacco paste): Earth. According to the wisdom passed down by the elders, ambil is referred to as the "Companion of thought." It should always be accompanied by mambe, as the latter enriches and strengthens the power of speech and balances the mind. Its character and flavor are more intense, symbolizing the masculine figure, which provides clarity in listening and facilitates the organization of ideas. By engaging in conversations, a favorable reception is promoted on both sides. It also reminds us of the importance of congruence between our emotions, thoughts, and actions. Ambil is applied to the gums and tongue, slowly dissolving alongside mambe. In indigenous communities that continue its use, it is considered a key element in harmonizing and cleansing the space. Ambil gives greater strength to words and, under the indigenous worldview, offers wisdom to communicate spiritual and practical knowledge to the entire community.

The plant known as the Blue lotus is a water lily native to fresh waters in eastern Africa and parts of Arabia and Asia. Since ancient times it has been used medicinally and considered sacred by multiple peoples including the Ancient Egyptians, Buddhists and Hindus. The plant contains two compounds in the flower — apomorphine and nuciferine, which make it psychoactive, inducing a calming affect when consumed. For thousands of years this plant has been used in traditional healing and spiritual ceremonies. I flame sculpted this blue lotus flower and lily pad with borosilicate glass and used resin on a mirror to create the water ripple effects for the base. This piece will be available on my website after the inventory update tomorrow. 🪷✨ . . . . #bluelotus #glasssculpture #borosilicateglass #flameworkedglass #waterlily #glassart #glasslife #shopupdate #sacredplants #plantwitch #glassflowers #sculptureartist #artforyourhome #lotusflower https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch2Qd7hOeIJ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This is Viscum album, known as mistletoe or gki in Greek. See my books on Amazon here: bit.ly/elefteria and keep reading! Viscum album is a hemiparasite on several species of trees, from which it draws water and nutrients. It has a significant role in European mythology, legends, and customs. In modern times, it is commonly featured in Christmas decoration and symbology. European mistletoe is potentially fatal, in a concentrated form, and people can become seriously ill from eating the berries. The toxic lectin viscumin has been isolated from Viscum album.Viscumin is a cytotoxic protein (ribosome inactivating protein, or RIP) that binds to galactose residues of cell surface glycoproteins and may be internalised by endocytosis. Viscumin strongly inhibits protein synthesis by inactivating the 60 S ribosomal subunit. The structure of this protein is very similar to other RIPs, showing the most resemblance to ricin and abrin. It is supposed to have anticancer properties, but I am not using it because of its toxicity. Photo taken by me, all rights reserved. Some birds have immunity to the poison and enjoy the berries, especially the mistle thrush which is named for its favourite food. #viscumalbum #mistletoe #viscum #parasiticplants #plantmagic #santalaceae #sacredplants #botanicalmedicine #herbaleducation #urbanforaging #greekflora #foragingforfood #foraging #wildfoodlove #wildfood  #herbalmedicine #herbnerd #myherbalstudies #apothecary  #plantmedicine #herbalist #herbalhealing  #plantallies (at Εθνικός Δρυμός Πάρνηθας (Parnitha National Park)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcpP1ZJoAbn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

♕ " Cae la niebla sobre mis montañas
cuando la sombra no es nada en el horizonte
aprisa queman las velas
y lento es el sol en aparecer
las aves viajeras
al nido llevan
un dulce gorrión inquieto
un pájaro aventurero
y yo me pregunto:
¿en dónde dormirán los sueños
mientras cae el amanecer?,
¿en qué lugar vagará el amor
mientras tiene vida?
la brisa es brisa
es tenue y feliz
el silencio habita en el cuerpo;
las manos van
vienen los ojos
parten los labios
vienen los dientes
mariposas entre colores danzan
y el día bebe los sueños
del animal ausente "

“Resurrection Fern” 2024
OKAY the thought of making this series I 100% started to get over the death of my plant-buddy coworker (F*CK cancer) into an oracle deck is ITCHING at my brain. If I make this series into an oracle deck, ferns would mean thriving when conditions are right, even if those conditions would drown and batter another person. It’s hard to grow by a waterfall, up a tree, or under a sewer grate, but ferns excel at it. And when conditions are not favorable, hunker down and wait for wetter weather. Ferns might not do well in the average house, but they are perfectly suited for their natural environment.
What kinds of plants would you like to see in an oracle deck?

♕ " En aquella perdida aldea
los hombres convertidos en pájaros
alumbran con sus colores de fuego
sobre los techos de las casas
ellos vigilan el sueño de los vivos
para que al amanecer
renueven el camino
con el corazón liviano de tantas penas,
si alguien los contempla
podrá entender la danza de sus plumas
en la oscuridad
el canto silencioso
de antiguos mensajes
y las formas circulares
que relampaguean desde sus plumas
ellos son los seres de la liana prodigiosa
la que cuelga del cielo y
que es por donde bajan los muertos
a pintar todos los sueños de los vivos"
