HEATH MILKWORT  Polygala gerpyllifolia 

Heath Milkwort tells us, “I offer support to those who live in the shadow of others, those whose presence goes unaccounted and those whose gifts seem unnoticed. I affirm you and your steady, sturdy, quiet gifts. I offer consolation and an energetic boost when you need encouragement or feel that maybe your seeming invisibility in the worldly world is a true accounting of your gifts. I come to tell you it is not and to thank you.”

Heath Milkwort, an exquisite ground hugging sapphire blue Flower, was abundant in low grasses throughout western Ireland. However, I could not find it described in any Flower book. I asked various cousins if they knew what it was and while all of them recognized it, none knew its name. Finally one cousin, Janet, tracked it down in a Flora and Fauna of Great Britain book. Such a reminder that the Flowers hold their vibrational strengths because they have had to walk their talk!

I AM a true accounting of my strengths.
