Blessings of Spring
The Goddess Flora
The scroll at the bottom of her feet reads (in Italian):
"I come down from Florence and am Flora,
This city takes its name from flower.
Among the flowers I was born, and now by a change of home
I have my dwelling among the mountains of Scotia.
Welcome and let me treasure amid northern mists be dear to you."
This painting of Flora was done by Evelyn De Morgan in 1894. Taking inspiration from Botticelli's "Primavera", it was created while she was in Florence, Italy. Flora's dress has a Florentine flower pattern, and the tree behind her is a loquat, which actually blooms in late autumn and bears fruit in the Spring.

Praise to Sophia, Goddess of Wisdom
O Wisdom!
You circled, circling,
encompassing all things
in one path possessed of life.
You circled, circling,
encompassing all things
in one path possessed of life.
Three wings you have -
one of them soars on high,
the second exudes from the earth,
and the third flutters everywhere
one of them soars on high,
the second exudes from the earth,
and the third flutters everywhere
Praise to you, as befits you,
O Sapientia!
O Sapientia!
Written by the Sibyl of the Rhine, Hildegard of Bingen
