1- As a youth I picked simple bouquets mostly of the 2 earliest #wildflowers for Mom's birthday + #MothersDay When I moved back and grew spring flowers, the bouquets grew more elaborate; after Mom's passing, they became #spring celebrations of #Life #rebirth the start of the ancient #Latvian season #TimeOfFlowers + the #Baltic #PreIndoEuropean #GreatMother #Goddess It all blends seamlessly, at least in my mind...lol

2-Two videos- links are to YouTube, first a short showing the finished altar + some wildflowers in situ + spring woodland, + me having a bit of coffee beside the altar to toast my Mom and her twin sister.
Then a longer one showing the meditative collecting of flowers + laying of the altar + extra views of #garden #Wildflowers + #landscape + again, those moments with coffee! #Spectra #Peertube links next
