Centurea

Centurea: Enthusiastic Outreach

Centurea cyanus; Compositae. Bachelor’s button, Cornflower, Bluebottle

Centurea acts like a wild thistle, reaching out to the world with enthusiasm and assurance. It animates our ability to connect with others and entertain new possibilities beyond our present experience. Centurea helps us access the parts of ourselves we need to greet each new situation. It reassures us our attempts to reach out will be warmly received.

Flower color: blue; Musical term: overture and finale (the beginning and the ending)
