MESSAGE
See all the different shaped petals, the slight variation in color, shading, shape, and position. So too are all the aspects of yourself. See the beauty of how you fit together, all the different parts coming together to make you beautiful. Protect yourself from the negativity of others. Let them keep their opinions. Support your healing by releasing any attachment to what others think of you. Look into the depth of all my flowers and see that no two are alike. One is not better than the other. Mammillaria encourages you to love yourself as you are, perfectly imperfect, and hold yourself as sacred.
There are no mistakes. Mammillaria protects your energy fields to walk into the shadows of one’s soul
to release self blame, failure, and the reproach of others. Accept each experience for its role in who you
are today. Do not suppress or avoid past traumatic periods, Mammillaria can help you find truth and
wisdom in those experiences and embrace life anew. Find freedom from past reproach and gain a deeper
perspective of each experience.
