The Flower Horoscope For Every Zodiac Sign
Flowers play a significant role in making a person’s life more joyful and happy.
People use flowers in various forms and on different occasions. The aura and magic of flowers brighten people’s moods and improvise their spirits.
The most important function that flowers have, however, is their ability to convey deep human emotions and thoughts in a way that no single object can.
Flowers are used as beautiful decorations to beautify homes. People love to decorate their homes with several attractive floral decorations.
A candlelit dinner with a friend is either incomplete or less romantic without a tulip or fresh rosebuds on the dining table. Therefore, the significance of flowers in our daily lives is multifaceted.
Flowers can also teach you responsibility because they require care. With the right soil, the right fertilizer, and regular watering, you learn how to care for a living being.
Flowers can also provide nourishment for humans. Certain flowers are edible or can be used as herbal medicine. As you can see, flowers have many important properties.
They bring joy to people, and they can teach you patience if you let them grow. Plants are known to lift moods such as depression and anxiety. Most flowers also have a specific meaning.
Likewise, certain flowers belong to a particular zodiac sign and represent their personality and emotions in the best possible way.
If we know which flower best suits a zodiac sign, we can break the dilemma of which flower to give someone, or we can learn more about the meaning of the flower that belongs to our zodiac sign.
1. Aries: Cherry Blossom
The symbolism of the cherry blossom began in Japan, where it is known as sakura.
The cherry blossom is a symbolic flower of spring, a time of renewal and the transience of life. Its lifespan is very short. After its beauty reaches its peak for about two weeks, its petals begin to fall.
The ancient samurai spent their lives cultivating their minds, acquiring knowledge, and refining their fighting techniques. The samurai pledged their lives to serve their lord (daimyo).
In many ways, these samurai were like the Japanese sakura. In battle, they were willing to die for their lord and his goals, yet their deaths were not in vain.
Their honor, their strong will, their bravery and the fragility of their lives allow them to live and die in the spirit of the cherry blossom.
And just as Aries embodies many of the qualities of Japanese warriors and many warriors alike, the cherry blossom is the most honorable flower that can represent him.
2. Taurus: White Lily
Lilies have occupied a significant place in world history due to their fragrance, grace, and beauty. From ancient Crete to the flower shop down the street, people always consider the lily “the purest flower.”
In Greek mythology, the lily flower was created from Hera’s breast milk. The Roman goddess of beauty, Venus, was so jealous of the lily’s purity that she caused a pistil to grow from the center of the flower.
This connects the meaning of the lily with birth and it is a symbol of motherhood.
In the Victorian language of flowers, lilies represent love, passion and affection for your beloved, while orange lilies represent happiness, love and warmth.
The meaning of this flower varies depending on its color, so there’s a suitable color for every possible occasion.
This flower is associated with the zodiac sign Taurus because Taurus has the courage to be himself, but also because he allows others to be who they are.
Taurus is also associated with a very gentle and mother-like nature, and although it has no connection to purity and likes to indulge in anything that brings pleasure, it is indeed the sign with the purest intentions in the entire zodiac.
3. Gemini: Daisies
In Norse mythology, the daisy is the sacred flower of Freya. Freya is the goddess of love, beauty, and fertility, and as such, the daisy is a symbol of birth, motherhood, and new beginnings. Daisies are also sometimes given to new mothers as a congratulations.
The most well-known symbolic meanings of the daisy are innocence, purity, and clarity. The daisy’s bright colors also evoke an image of freshness.
This flower is also associated with childhood, as bored children often make a flower crown out of this flower.
Although this flower may seem somewhat simplified and unnoticeable, it has a wonderful connection to Gemini and their dual nature.
Daisies are compound flowers, meaning that for every single daisy you see, there are actually two flowers—the outer petals (also called rays) are one flower and the central disc is another.
This greatly represents Gemini symbolism, with this zodiac sign being so adaptable that it sometimes even seems as if the person who is a Gemini has two different personalities.
4. Cancer: Lavender
Lavender flowers are known to represent purity, silence, devotion, serenity, grace and peace.
Lavender appears several times in the Bible, usually in connection with its amazing fragrance, which was appreciated by ancient people. It was often transformed into a precious and exclusive perfume, oil, or ointment used for cleansing, healing, and scenting.
In ancient Greek civilization, the flower is considered one of the sacred flowers, symbolizing the sacred state of shrines and temples.
Meanwhile, in ancient Rome, lavender symbolized a luxury that only people of high social status could buy and cultivate.
Fortunately, lavender is now available to everyone and is a wonderful flower that brings joy, healing, and relaxation to any home. Because this flower is often associated with scent-enchanting rituals performed at home, it is strongly associated with the zodiac sign of Cancer.
A Cancer brings large amounts of lavender home to his family to bring happiness, peace, and fragrance into his happy home.
5. Leo: Sunflower
Sunflowers symbolize adoration, loyalty, and longevity. Much of the sunflower’s significance stems from its namesake, the sun itself.
In Greek mythology, Apollo was the son of Zeus and the sun god. He was loved by all, but a water nymph named Clytia was madly in love with Apollo.
She watched him with open eyes as he moved across the sky. Unfortunately, Apollo ignored Clytie and never returned her love.
Clytie continued to watch Apollo soar through the sky. She sat on a rock for nine days without food or water, simply watching Apollo as he flew across the sky.
Eventually, it transformed into a flower known as the sunflower. It is believed that even today, the sunflower gazes at the sun from sunrise to sunset.
This flower has a strong connection to the zodiac sign Leo, as Leo is ruled by the sun. And like Apollo, they are admirable and sometimes even unattainable for us.
6. Virgo: Peony
Common meanings of the peony include romance, prosperity, happiness, a happy marriage, wealth, honor, and compassion.
In one story, peonies get their name from the Greek word paeon.
In Greek mythology, Paeon was the physician of the gods who angered his teacher Aesculapius after extracting a milky liquid from the root of a peony that cured Pluto.
Aesculapius was the god of medicine and healing. Out of jealousy, he threatened to kill Paeon. Zeus saved him by transforming him into a beautiful flower, the peony.
Another myth connects the name peony to a nymph named Paeonia, whose beauty caught the attention of Apollo. Out of contempt, Aphrodite transformed her into a peony.
This legend is probably the reason why the flower had the meaning of bad luck in the Victorian era.
Thus, the peony is in many ways associated with the zodiac sign Virgo because its ambition and beauty are often the object of jealousy.
7. Libra: Orchid
As the most sought-after ornamental plant, the delicate, exotic and graceful orchid represents love, luxury, beauty and strength.
In ancient Greece, orchids were associated with masculinity. In fact, Greek women believed that if the father of their unborn child ate large, new orchid tubers, the baby would be a boy.
The Aztecs are said to have mixed the vanilla orchid with chocolate to create a tasty elixir that was said to promote power and strength.
Although the Victorians did not use orchids as magical elixirs, they collected and displayed them as a symbol of their refined taste and wealth.
In China, orchids are a symbol of love and marriage, but also of luck and money.
The orchid is associated with Libra in many ways, as their refined taste and love of luxury are the main characteristics of their personality.
8. Scorpio: Lotus Flower
The lotus flower is considered a symbol of purity, enlightenment, self-regeneration and rebirth in many different cultures, especially in Eastern religions.
Its qualities are a perfect analogy for the human condition: even if its roots lie in the dirtiest waters, the lotus flower produces the most beautiful bloom.
In the classical written and oral literature of many Asian cultures, the lotus is present in figurative form and represents elegance, beauty, perfection, purity and grace.
In poems and songs, the lotus is often used as an allegory for ideal female attributes.
The ancient Egyptians also believed that the lotus flower had the ability to resurrect the dead, as evidenced by the transfiguration spells in the Book of the Dead.
On this basis, the lotus is a perfect representation of the zodiac sign Scorpio, as this sign is able to thrive no matter how badly it has been treated by its environment.
9. Sagittarius: Rose
Various folk cultures and traditions give the rose a symbolic meaning, but this is rarely understood in depth. Examples of deeper meanings lie in the language of flowers and how a rose can take on different meanings in arrangements.
Examples of common meanings of different colored roses include: true love (red), mysticism (blue), innocence or purity (white), death (black), friendship (yellow), and passion (orange).
In ancient Greece, the rose was closely associated with the goddess Aphrodite. In the Eliad, Aphrodite protects Hector’s body with the “immortal oil of the rose,” and the archaic Greek lyric poet Ibycus praises a beautiful youth by saying that Aphrodite nursed him “under rose blossoms.”
A red rose is a gift from a husband or boyfriend to his wife or girlfriend, symbolizing a marital or romantic relationship.
A white rose is a gift from a man to a woman when the two are strictly friends (not in a romantic relationship). Roses are therefore color-coded as red for romance and yellow for friendship.
In many ways, the rose is associated with Sagittarius because this zodiac sign is beautiful yet strong, capable of defending itself against anyone who doesn’t appreciate it. After all, a rose has thorns for a reason.
10. Capricorn: Marigold
Experts in Victorian flower language considered it a symbol of despair and mourning, shared with the Mexican cultural imagination, which links it to the commemoration of the dead during Dia de Muertos.
The Victorians also associated it with the cruel treatment of a loved one. Modern meanings instead focus on the sunny color and beauty, giving the flower a meaning of optimism and success.
In the Middle Ages, marigolds were worn by both sexes as love charms to attract someone new.
Marigolds are considered pure and are a worldwide religious symbol that plays an important role in Hindu, Buddhist and Catholic celebrations.
As such, they are traditionally offered in India in honor of all gods and goddesses, but especially in honor of Laxmi and Ganesh.
The colors of the marigold are also important to Hindus.
Just as this flower has a bad and beautiful meaning, it is a good representation of Capricorn, who even embraces his negative traits to grow as a person.
11. Aquarius: Hibiscus
Hibiscus is best known as the flower of Hawaii, where it is the official state flower. Hawaiians associate it with power, respect, and hospitality.
The hibiscus flower is traditionally worn by Tahitian and Hawaiian women.
If the flower is worn behind the left ear, the woman is married or has a boyfriend. If the flower is worn on the right, she is unmarried or open to a relationship.
The red hibiscus is the flower of the Hindu goddess Kali and appears frequently in depictions of her in the art of the Bengalis in India.
Hibiscus is used in Hindu worship as an offering to the goddess Kali and Ganesha.
Another Hindu deity, Ganesha, also worships the hibiscus for its ability to radiate divine consciousness.
A hibiscus is related to Aquarius because they share mutual uniqueness and spiritual growth.
12. Pisces: Dhalia
The dahlia is a magnificent flower that originated in Mexico and whose historical roots date back centuries. It remains the national flower of Mexico today.
Dahlia flowers are often associated with various meanings, ranging from messages of lasting grace to warning signals.
Dahlias, like many other flowers, are imbued with different meanings. The dahlia flower represents contradictory qualities.
The flower’s negative connotations of betrayal, instability, and dishonesty are in stark contrast to Victorian-era values of elegance, inner strength, creativity, change, and dignity, which still have relevant meanings today.
They are also the symbol of someone who is strong in their sacred values.
Just like fish, they have a whole swirl of different meanings, which makes them a symbol of the Pisces philosophy of life, “That everything in life is relative”.
