LAKSHMI'S BLESSING
Lakshmi's Blessing honors the energies of growth and becoming, unfoldment and ripening. Lakshmi, the Hindu Goddess of abundance and prosperity, is an expression of the Divine in Her power of fertility and organic growth. She represents the hidden power that unfurls the petals of every silky pink rose, that calls forth the butterfly from its cocoon, that beckons all life to grow and to expand.
She is associated with the mysterious renewal of life that occurs every spring-- the greening of the earth after the long freeze of winter. Also, as represented by the mother-of-pearl disc in the center of the triangular opening, Lakshmi's energy is embodied in the full moon. Within us, she is that hidden power that "grows" us -- uncovering and developing our innate talents and gifts, inviting us to expand beyond our own limited definitions, blossoming us into our truest selves, that we may express our fullest potential, and reflect the Divine through our human lives.
