Dandelion Day Sunday May 3rd
WEDNESDAY. COME VISIT
Do you know the official flower of your state or country? Sometimes there are “national” flowers that we may or may not have a connection with, as these kinds of symbols can become banal and removed from a deeper meaning. At Damanhur, we intend to have symbols for our “Federation of Communities” that are not only names written in books or on websites, but rather real, living relationships with nature.
In this spirit, we have been celebrating the flower of Damanhur, the Tarassaco (dandelion), all this month. It’s also a celebration of Falco’s plant name. Many people have been doing the Tarassaco ritual clustered around a dandelion flower.
The celebrations will culminate on Tarassaco Day, Sunday May 3rd. It’s a day for the Popolo, dedicated to this beautiful, radiant yellow flower. Friends and guests are welcome to join! Events will happen in the Sacred Woods Temple.
Here are some of the main points of the program.
