Pagan Eye: Moonfire Dahlia


This beautiful flower picture was taken by the same person who photographed the magical mandrake that I wrote about earlier this week. It shows a stunning dahlia called "Moonfire", which sounds a very witchy name and was seen in Oxford Botanical Gardens.

In the language of flowers, the gift of a dahlia means good taste. However, if you are giving a floral present to a loved one you should only give a single dahlia bloom as to give big bunch indicates instability.

On each Pagan Eye post, I show a photo that I find interesting, with a few words about it. I'm not quite sure what I'll be including - it could be a seasonal image, a pagan site, an event, or just a pretty picture.

If you want to send me a photo for a Pagan Eye post, please email it to badwitch1234@gmail.com Let me know what the photo shows and whether you want your name mentioned or not. For copyright reasons, the photo must be one you have taken yourself and you must confirm that you are submitting it for A Bad Witch's Blog.

The photograph is copyright the photographer and should not be reproduced without permission.
