The beauty of renewal

Resurgam transitions into Viriditas – the greening power of creation.

“The word combines the Latin for green and truth, and like the source of a river, viriditas is the font of energy on which all other life forms ultimately depend. It is the origin of goodness and health, in contrast to ariditas, which Hildegard von Bingen regarded as its life-defying opposite.” (From The Well-Gardened Mind by Sue Stuart-Smith)

Sue Stuart-Smith continues: “The greening power of viriditas is both literal and symbolic. It refers to the flourishing of nature as well as the vibrancy of the human spirit.“
