Day 28: Calendula. The hope you didn’t know you needed. This is the spirit of the elements. Weaving through your life and reminding you where you came from and what you are capable of creating. It’s the sunrise and sunset of each day, holding you in between the hardest bits with tenderness.

Day 27: Nettle. This boss ass bitch comes with a serious sting. If you learn what she needs and ask for enthusiastic consent she will provide some of the deepest healing you’ve ever had. She will fix you up a warm meal and make sure the knife is ready if you need protecting.

Day 26: Sunflower. They stand tall. Proud. The most stunning and hopeful person in the room. They rise from humble beginnings and become much needed joy in the darkest of moments. The delight we all needed. The nonbinary nibbling with ADHD whose creativity eventually saves us all.

Day 25: Rose. This soft high femme is not afraid to set clear boundaries. She knows her worth. She cannot be shamed. She will draw out the softness in you and be a gentle place to land but only if you respect the land. She is supple and fierce. Reciprocity is her love language.

Day 24: Dandelion. The solid presence of your ancestors, rooted deeply inside you and reminding you that you belong. They play tricks and throw obstacles your way as often as they support your growth. They infuse you with the strength to break down barriers and be the proof that we were always here.

Day 23: Peppermint. That gay uncle who has been out and proud since before it was safe. The one you know you can never shock or appall. He’s heard it all. He’s never settled down but he always knows how to settle your nerves. He’s always cringe and the safest person at any family gathering.

Day 22: Cilantro. The devils advocate you love or hate. He either compliments you or makes you feel uncomfortable. He may need some maturation before he’s loved by all. His ability to split a room in two is unmatched and frankly you wish you could make him a little less divisive.

Day 21: Saffron. The dance instructor/yoga friend who taught you about your body, desire and the forbidden fruit of wanting. No conversation is ever off the table and often the table is full of sex toys and kink explorations. She’s dabbled in spirituality and knows god in and outside the bedroom.

Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

Day 20: Passionflower. The flamboyant best friend who will not be defined by anyone and breaks rules as fast as they make them. Their laugh is medicine for your heartache. Their fashion style has no boundaries and yet it always slays. They exude joy for life, they smirk in the face of danger.

Day 19: Oregano. Your late diagnosed autistic aunt who takes her job as a nurse as seriously as the puns she texts you every morning. She has the treatment for every ailment and any ache except the one to take down the medical industrial complex. This alone keeps her up most nights.

Day 18: Elderberry. The family secret. This is whispered about but never spoken. The thing that both binds and tears the family apart. It leaves stains of trauma and also is the source of healing generations of harm. It must be given time and patience to bloom but what it has to offer is love.

Day 17: Cayenne. The cousin who has the key to your house when you haven’t answered their texts for enough days. They shake off the blankets, shove you into the bathroom with the most outrageous outfit and march you outta the house for adventures you’ll surely regret and desperately need. Yas queen.

Day 16: Poppy. A furry whose kink is to dress so comfortably you immediately fall asleep when near them. You day dream about the moment all through work and find yourself spending more time in bed than out. Binge watching “Our flag means death.” They plant the seeds of rest everywhere they go.

Day 15: Cinnamon. This spicy little nonbinary darling knows all the best places to find a solid home cooked meal, foraged food and secret trails no one has discovered. They dress with a passion for being noticed but only have eyes for you. They won your heart by saving an ant from being smashed.

Day 14: Tea Tree. The elder who has a salve for every wound, scar or bite. They have long ago learned the language of the plants and follow no recipes but the one from their heart. They have every tincture and remedy you could imagine and some you never could. Drink the tea. Just do it.
