We greet the end of this “year of flowers” with Amaryllis as our theme representing splendid beauty and pride. When we have a beautiful light to shine, we should show it off; not in a boastful way, but in a way that illuminates the beauty of others and the world around us. We should look back with pride on all of our accomplishments and move forward with vulnerability so we are open to new challenges that strengthen and fulfill us

We are coming into a season of giving and being generous with our time, resources, and love (including love of self). We look to the Astragalus plant as our November theme, also known as Huang qí, meaning “yellow life force”. Love truly is a force that can influence everything we do and everyone we meet. Set aside some time to give thought to how we carry this force and how we accept it from others.
