At the moment is Saint David's Day - Dydd G^wyl Dewi Sant. 'Dewi Ddyfrwr' (David the Water-Drinker) is a Welsh charity donor saint. While I'm not Christian, I do display some Welsh ancestry and" in the past few minutes love daffodils -" my number one develop.
From Wiki en route for traditions:
"Line call part in school concerts or eisteddfodau, with recitation and before a live audience specific the high point tricks. Backward, a half-day holiday was afforded to school children. Properly this rule does not preserve, all the same the practice can swap on a school-to-school court case.
Heaps Welsh genus wear one or all of the disarray emblems of Wales on their lapel to remember Saint David: the DAFFODIL (a generic Welsh symbol which is in weather conditions over March) or the leek (Saint David's middle symbol) on this day. The better part involving leeks and daffodils is strengthened by the fact that they display congruence names in Welsh, Cenhinen (leek) and Cenhinen Bedr (daffodil, without favoritism "Peter's leek")."
Attractively, as well as my ancestry and predilection for Welsh tarot cards, my kabbalistic name incense includes daffodil ("cenhinen bedr"). I had no suspicion at the time to the same extent I wrote the incense recipe that cenhinen bedr is an summit of Wales or of a saint named David (Dewi). The two parcels yod, one in my name Liorah and the other in the Hebrew phonetic transliteration of my craft name Lleucu assent to the develop.
Daffodil is a female botanical allied to the humanity Venus (or Mars, in some sources) and to the element of water. It's magickal influences cover love, depth and good fluke. It has a lovely folk name: daffy-down-dilly.
"The Chinese daffodil belongs to the amaryllis strain. Daffodil is a perennial herb. In the same way as its tuber looks likes onion or garlic, it was called Bright Garlic in the Six Dynasties and Fantasy Shallot in the Song Semi-detached (960-1279). Taking into account, it obtained several insightful and nice-looking names, such as golden calix, silver list, thumb a lift orchid, insubstantial guest, and being star."
In esteem of Dydd G^wyl Dewi Sant, I'm scorching some "shin kokonoe" (daffodil) incense today. Hmm, smells good.
