Allie got tired of her neighbors inviting her to church functions, so she made this garden right in the front yard. Pretty clever idea.

🥀🌿Волшебный Ботанический Оракул🌿🥀 Я наткнулась на него совершенно случайно, но что-то сразу подсказало, что это мне нужно. Всячески присматриваясь и обдумывая когда бы его приобрести, после понижения стоимости ждать больше не было сил и вот он у меня. Растения из Ведьминого Сада, заботливо выращенные как будто бы специально для тебя. "Точная прорисовка растения - это проявление любви и благоговения. Целью создания этого оракула стало желание поделиться красотой и мудростью, которые можно найти в Ведьмином Саду. Позвольте духам растений помочь вам укрепить и укоренить ваши отношения с природой. Пусть они направляют и вдохновляют вас в вашем путешествии по собственному Волшебному пути" Каждая из карт этого Оракула олицетворяет дух живого растения - не архетип или идею, а его сущность, укорененную в материальном мире флоры и живущую в мистических измерениях между обычным видимым миром и миром духов. При правильном подходе, на тех из нас, кто осмелится обратиться к ним, они воздействуют как целители, учителя и проводники.
