Welcome! Happy Equinox! It’s been a wonderful season in the Green Hope Farm gardens. The new cedar fence enclosing our main vegetable garden made everyone happy except the deer and the groundhogs. For the first time in years we had abundant produce!
The Venus Garden mandala was breathtaking with an energy unlike any other garden here ever. From this garden was born a deeply supportive combination remedy called REPAIR, now available to you.
Inside the office, many innovations led us to now bottle all our Flower Essences as bespoke bottles for you. This means they are vibrationally fine tuned to you and your beloveds on yet a deeper level. Something else that is new is our Astrology collection of Flower Essences, a collection we are so excited to share with you.
While we officially introduced this collection earlier in September, it is worth sharing about this wonderful new colection again!
Diving deep into our rich and wide reaching catalog of Flower Essences, we have created twelve unique and dynamic mixes, one blend for each astrological sign. Our hope is that this collection brings far reaching support as you balance the gifts and challenges of your own unique astrological chart.
Each combination remedy can be used to focus on your sun, moon or rising placement as well as any major planetary placements. They will be supportive during each astrological season as well as during major transits when astrological signs come into importance in your individual birth chart. They will also support astrological shifts from one sign to another, be it in your own chart or in that of the collective.
If you need help finding information about your natal chart there are many free astrological birth chart calculators online. Please feel free to contact us for support! We are passionate about sharing this collection.
We offer these Flower Essence combinations in three different ways. You can order an individual bottle of any single astrological sign. You can order a trio called THE BIG THREE. THE BIG THREE trio allows you to get the Flower Essence mixes for your SUN, MOON and RISING SIGN. If you have two of your BIG THREE in the same astrological sign you are welcome to pick the sign for a personal planet of great significance in your chart or if you are newer to astrology you can reach out to us and we can guide you towards a sign that holds an important placement for you.
You can order the complete set of all twelve astrological signs. This set can be used to honor each astrological chapter of the year, as a kit to serve family, friends or clients and as a deeper tool to support the alchemical magic of each sign as it affects your life. Each mix is created with a unique group of Flower Essences with no overlap of Flower Essences with any other combination mix in the collection. This means the set of twelve offers a great diversity of Flower Essences.
MORE ABOUT OUR BESPOKE APPROACH TO OUR FLOWER ESSENCES
This year brought big shifts in how we bottle our Flower Essences for you. When you order a Flower Essence from us, we now bottle this Flower Essence just for you as a bespoke Flower Essence. For almost forty years we primarily bottled groups of Flower Essences then pulled from inventory to fill orders. Now we make every Flower Essence fresh the day we send you your order.
We were guided to this approach and have found it deeply satisfying. Each of us has noticed a shift in what this feels like energetically to bottle your Flower Essences just for you and those you share the Flower Essences with. This approach opens the way for the Flower Essences we send you to be of optimum service and coherence with your energy system and the energy system of those Beloveds with whom you share the Flower Essences.
In this AI world, we want you to know that in addition to bottling our Flower Essences with our own hands, we grow the Flowers and our Red Shiso stabilizer to make your Flower Essences in our organic gardens with our own hands. We dig, plant, weed and harvest with our own hands. All the photos on the website are photographs taken by us in the Green Hope gardens. All writing from emails to the website descriptions to this blog is written by us humans (not that our partners in Nature don’t inspire us too!).
THE VENUS GARDEN FOR 2026- REPAIR
Each year a new mandala of Flowers is planted in the garden plot we call the Venus Garden. Each growing season brings a unique harvest of a Flower Essence combination remedy from this garden. The creation from this Venus Garden is a remedy called REPAIR. we’ve shared photos of this garden here in this blog. It was stunning!
The Venus Garden and the Venus Garden collection of Flower Essences from this garden exist as a living library. Different garden mandalas have supported our deepest challenges on the spiritual path including our alignment to purpose, surviving firestorms, living with equanimity, community dynamics, care for the Earth and gratitude. The purpose of each Venus Garden always jives with something essential going on in the collective. REPAIR feels perfect for right now. The promise of a Flower Essence helping us with REPAIR work left me grateful even before the first plants went into the garden.
REPAIR supports the earth’s need for repair, our country’s need to repair our divided communities, the repair needs of our individual energy systems and repair in our interpersonal relationships.
When I first began Green Hope Farm four decades ago, I was horrified when we made mistakes with an order (and being human, of course we made mistakes). My guides told me that if we made right on a mistake, the relationship would be even stronger than if we had never made the mistake. This encouraged me to dive into the repair. What I learned was that the back and forth to straighten things out led to so many precious relationships with you. To embrace our mistakes and work them through became a treasured part of our lives here. This helped me understand that in the creation of the REPAIR Essence, we were supporting a strengthening of ties in a profound way. We are always stronger and more connected on the other side of a repair. We just need the courage to embark upon the repair and to keep going.
REPAIR was a gorgeous garden from early spring through to the whole growing season. Now it is a gorgeous powerhouse of an Essence! While we planted a specific mandala of plants grown for the garden, volunteer seedlings arrived on their own from past Venus Gardens and proved essential to this creation.
Abundant deep purple Larkspur came on its own. It offers the energy of course correction, something so necessary if a repair is to happen. Larkspur also brilliantly illuminates the healing path so we know which way to go. Another group of volunteers, deep burgundy, violet and garnet Bachelor Buttons fringed the garden to help rebuff negativity that would run interference on our repair work. The ultraviolet Bachelor Buttons in particular soften us for necessary forgiveness work. These gems of color joined an outer ring of Snapdragons. Snapdragon’s qualities of restraint and protective strength help us create the space needed when we pursue a repair. Nicotiana was there to help us focus our repair efforts with clarity and discernment. It clears the decks of the extraneous. Amaranth, another volunteer, encourages perspective and the courage to repair without fear. It helps us take a stand. A veritable rainbow of Zinnias lifted the garden and thus our hearts so that no matter how tough the territory of repair, we can keep a bead on joy. Cosmos was there to help us unite head and heart so we can speak from our hearts. Mehera Marigolds held the center knowing that all repair is a process of reunion with our divine self. Together these Flowers created a symphony of support for all our repair efforts. We offer REPAIR with much love and blessings from all of us at Green Hope Farm.
