    Orange flower

    09-13-14 Orange is the color of our sacral chakra, home to our sexual energies, emotions and the womb. Also, orange is a communication color, mainly in social context. For me, this flower speaks to the re-birthing so many of us are experiencing that often comes with abundant emotions. Creativity intertwines within sexual energy. Thus, the flower also speaks to our ability to create new beginnings by focusing emotion flow. Black is the color of the womb yet also represents death within our culture. Remember death is always followed by birth and visa versa. Powerful times indeed.
