❤Folklore:

Lily of the valley is a deceptive plant, with two sides. An innocent little white flower that can protect and ward off evil and potential to do serious damage or bring bad luck because of how toxic it is to humans and animals. In folklore terms a dealer in equal parts, good and bad luck for those who come across it.  This flower deeply rooted in literal girl power throughout every story told, women are closely tied to the plant.

The Irish believe it is best to leave this plant outside, left to flourish and grow out of doors it can protect, and encourage purity as well as warding off evil garden spirits. Counter this when brought indoors it is said to be incredibly unlucky especially for women. Superstitions would warn that bringing Lily Of the Valley it into the house, would mean a woman in the family would soon pass away from a mysterious illness.

In 6th century England  there was a tale of a Saint Leonard, who fought and defeated a dragon. He was mortally wounded by the dragon during battle, and his blood fell to the forest floors, lore has it that wherever he bled, the lily of the valley flowers bloomed. To this day, the forest where the battle was said to have occurred still grows thick carpets of this flower every spring. 

While the lily of the valley can deliver evil, it can be equally as good as protecting Need someone to leave you alone or shield yourself from witches’ spells? Well, then little Lily has got your back. It is also considered to be a favourite amongst fairy folk and they are said to use the flowers when upturned as hats, or cups for sipping. 

 

❤ Divination/Fortune meaning:

There can be two sides to anything, two stories to be told, the moon and the sun. Things tend to work in pairs, and the polarity can be beautiful. You need to make sure that you are balancing the dark with the light, and taking the road in between. Without balance, there isn't any room to growth, too much darkness and you will be consumed, too much light can burn. Try your best not to put too much weight on either side, and walk the middle road so you can understand yourself and those around you more clearly.
