Someone very close to me is struggling with health challenges and I've been wondering what to get her as a wish for renewal. Just something small from me to her. This, of course, aside from the usual: make dinner, send cards, call, e-mail and send all kinds of positive energy into the universe. I make sure I face toward the town she lives in when sending the energy, just so it has a clear path!!
Anyway, I'll see her on Friday — she's coming here for dinner and a menu of favorite foods — and I've decided to buy her a beautifully potted Bamboo Plant. It's considered lucky because of its ability to grow quickly and adapt to new environments, symbolizing both resilience and prosperity (see no. 59 in my book Dancing Under the Full Moon). While she could always use a bit more money (who couldn't these days?!?!), this is about wishing her abundance in health, about affirming her natural resilience and sending her home with a tangible symbol our prayers for wealth in the form of good health.
After all, wealth takes all kinds of forms. And without our health what good is all the gold in the world. So, if you have someone who needs a mental, spiritual or physical pick-me-up, present them with a Lucky Bamboo plant. You'll both feel better.
Peace & good health - ps
