Flower Meanings

By Nerina 

It is said that little things make this life better. Happiness consists of details that often mean a world of difference to us. Everyone enjoys a nice gesture, attention, or a gift. Although we are usually able to extend kindness and attention daily, often times we simply forget to do so. Flowers are often given to women on different occasions: to display affection, send a message, on special occasions (birth day, mothers day, etc) or as a gesture of good faith. There are other reasons as well, such as: being gallant, flirting, or when you seek forgivness. If you decide to give flowers, it is also wise to know the personality and the horoscope sign of the receiver. It is believed that each person, based on their birth date, also has an affinity towards particular types of flowers. 

Aries: This is a fire sign, and when giving flowers to an Aries you should make sure that it signifies passion, challenge, or some kind of a “love vibe”. Favorite color of this sign is red, including “fiery” red and deep (wine) red. Also, Aries enjoy a bouquet of red flowers such as a combination of red roses, rosemary, and carnations.  

Taurus: Persons born in this sign belong to an earth element and enjoy receiving “expensive gifts” or flower arrangements that have a calming effect. If the flowers have an intoxicating scent, they will help you win a Taurus over. A perfect choice for this sign is a blend of intoxicating smaller flowers as well as a large bouquet of flowers in colors that complement each other. One great combination would include red roses and a green eucalyptus in a luxurious package. 

Gemini: The ruling element of this sign is air, and a person born under this sign is likely to be lively, optimistic, and up for a good time. For a Gemini, we recommend irises or passion flower lady margarets, preferably in white or another light color. Lilies or other types of wild flowers will have a calming and an energizing effect on a Gemini.  

Cancer: Persons born in this sign belong to an element of water and they expect a lot of attention from their loved ones. Sometimes, they do tend to seem a bit spoiled. However, do not forget that Cancers possess an unusually sensitive, romantic, and delicate nature. The perfect choice for this sign is lilac, and light-colored smaller roses. You can make a Cancer extremely happy as long as you provide them with a flower each day. In general, this sign corresponds well to water flowers, including the white water lily. 

Leo: Leos are a fire sign and love receiving well-intended luxurious gifts. Furthermore, due to their somewhat vain nature, Leos like to hold a special place in “their kingdom.” You can please them with a gift of bright orange flowers, including orange gardenias. Leos are also fond of cyclamen and enjoy gifts in a special packaging.  

Virgo: This sign belongs to an earth element, and people born in this sign expect sincere and serious intentions. In addition, Virgos appriciate safety, stability, and tend to enjoy flowers with lighter tones, including different color of blue and green. An ideal gift for this sign would be a bouquet of orchids and jasmines, especially in color white. If you happen to give them a bouquet of gardenias, you will see their eyes light up. 

Libra: Persons born in this sign belong to an earth element and have lively personalities. Libras tend to appriciate aesthetic beauty and can be a bit demanding. We recommend irises and/or a large bouquet of white, pink, or red roses.  Do not forget that Libras expect from you intoxicating and large bouquets in beautiful packaging. 

Scorpio: This sign belongs to a water element, and persons in this sign are particularly sensitive, sensual, and passionate. You will please them if you give them a gift of gladiolas in bright tones of red, purple, or orange. Some good choices include flowered cactus or roses in combination with green fern. Additionally, Scorpios enjoy receiving Asphodelus, a plant that serves as symbol of immortality and is sometimes used as an antidote to food poisoning (it has a detoxifying effect). Personally, as a Scorpio, I prefer roses in all colors and other intoxicating flowers. I also enjoy beautiful and unusual packaging.  

Sagittarius: This sign belongs to a fire element and persons born in this sign possess a particularly hot-tempered nature. They are active, passionate, humorous, and postive. When giving them flowers, it is best to choose a bouquet of a bright-yellow-colored violets. They are also particulary fond of intoxicating flowers. Sagittarius are particularly fond of wild flowers in a variety of colors. 

Capricorn: People born in this sign belong to an element of earth and tend to have a particularly calm, disciplined, and poised personality. In order to soften their character (and their sometimes pessimistic tendencies) it is best to give them a gift of Christmas rose (black hellebore) or English ivy in combination with intoxicating narcissus. 

Aquarius: This is an air sign, and those who belong to this sign tend to have an eccentric taste. Aquarius enjoys a carefree life. They are also especially original and quite specific in their styling choices. Aquarius enjoys receiving bouquets of valley lilies, winter roses in different colors, or boquets of wild flowers in blue tones. Aquarius also reacts positively and sensuality to a bouquet of Narcisses.  

Pisces: This is a water sign and persons belonging to this sign possess a very romantic and sensitive nature. They also tend to be dreamers. The best choice for Pisces includes different types of fern and intoxicating flowers, such as jasmine. They are also fond of large bouquet of wild flowers with blue tones. In order to win their attention, you should give them cyclamen in a bright red or orange color. Generally, intoxicating flowers and bright colors have a beneficial effect on this sign.

Cvijetni dar po horoskopskom znaku

Kaze se da male stvari zivot cine ljepsim, udobnijim i ruzicastijim. Zaista, sreca je ponekad u sitnicama koje zivot znace. Svima prija gest paznje, naklonost ili dar; to su stvari koje su lako dostupne, ali na njih obicno zaboravljamo. Cvijece je poklon koji se najcesce daruje zenama i to razlicitim povodom - kao izraz paznje, kao odredjena poruka, povodom proslave ili kao gest dobrih i iskrenih namjera. Postoje i drugi razlozi kao sto su galantnost, dodvoravanje ili znak da se trazi oprostaj. Kada se poklanja cvijece na dar, treba dobro poznavati i mentalitet horoskopskih znakova, jer svaka osoba u skladu sa svojim natalnim znakom rodjenja, ima i svoj ukus ili afinitet prema cvijecu. U okviru astrologije postoji teorija kao i istrazivanja koja potvrdjuju da svaka osoba u zavisnosti od svog natalnog znaka i licnog horoskopa preferira cvijece na razlicite nacine. 

OVAN Ovo je vatreni znak i osoba kojoj poklanjate cvijece prizeljkuje da u tom ritualu darivanja osjeti strast, izazov ili neku "ljubavnu" iskru. Omiljena boja mu je crvena ili "vatrena", karmin ili purpurno crvena, kao i bordo nijanse. Odaberite buket crvenog cvijeca, a to mogu biti karanfili ili ruze kombinovane sa grancicama ruzmarina. Dobar izbor predstavljaju i zlatni ili jarko zuti ljiljani. 

BIK Osobe rodjene u ovom znaku pripadaju elementu zemlje i prizeljkuju "skupocjene poklone" ili cvijetne aranzmane koji na njih djeluju smirujuce.

Pravi izbor za ove osobe predstavljaju mirisljava (opojna) i barsunasta macuhica, zatim veliki buketi skladnih boja, a njihova omiljena kombinacija su roze ruze i zeleni listovi eukaliptusa u luksuznom pakovanju. 

BLIZANCI Znak koji pripada elementu vazduha, a osoba kojoj zelite da poklonite cvijece posjeduje leprsavost i optimisticko ili veselo raspolozenje. Preporucujemo Vam da odaberete irise ili margarete, po mogucnosti bijele, ili u nekoj "svetlijoj" nijansi. Ukoliko je soba, mjesto u kome se boravi ispunjena ljiljanima ili nekim poljskim cvijecem, ove osobe djeluju veoma zadovoljno i poletno. 

RAK Osobe rodjene u ovom znaku pripadaju elementu vode i od Vas ocekuju svu paznju ovoga svijeta. Naravno da cesto i pretjeruju, ali nemojte zaboraviti da su Rakovi izuzetno senzitivni, romanticni i njezni. Dobar izbor za ovaj znak predstavljaju plavicasti jorgovani, ruze njeznih boja i sitnije, grozdasto bijelo cvijece. Ovu osobu mozete usreciti ukoliko joj svaki dan poklonite bar po jedan cvjetic. Inace, njihovom senzibilitetu narocito odgovara vodeno cvijece i lokvanj.

Zatim, ove osobe imaju izrazenu sujetu i potrebu da uvek zauzimaju neko posebno mjesto. Obradovacete ih buketima jarko narandzastih cvjetova. Dobar izbor su i gardenije ili ciklame, ali to obavezno moraju biti luksuzni aranzmani, upakovani u sjajni celofan ili ukraseni razlicitim masnama i detaljima, vrlo dekorativno i bogato. Lavovima, zbog njihovog senzibiliteta, narocito odgovara suncokret i poljsko cvijece u razlicitim nijansama zute boje. 

DEVICA Ovaj znak pripada elementu zemlje, a osoba kojoj poklanjate cvijece od Vas ocekuje krajnje iskrene i ozbiljne namjere.

Dobar izbor za ovaj znak predstavljaju buketi orhideja i jasmin, narocito u bijeloj boji. Ukoliko im poklonite gardeniju, vidjet cete sjaj i zadovoljstvo u njihovim ocima. 

VAGA Osobe rodjene u ovom znaku pripadaju elementu vazduha i posjeduju veoma nemirnu cud. Inace, Vage su velike estete, imaju istancan ukus i veoma su zahtjevne.

Dobar izbor su i cvjetni kaktusi ili ruze u kombinaciji sa zelenim granama paprati. Inace, po mitoloskom predanju se vjeruje da zbog pomalo "mracne prirode" ovog znaka, njima narocito odgovara asfodel (simbol besmrtnosti i biljka koja se koristi kao protivotrov, tj. neutralise toksicnost). Licno: ruze u svim bojama & mirisne frezije su moj izbor, te svakako da je interesatno i neobicno upakovano! :)

Kada im poklanjate cvijece, dobar izbor su buketi od djurdjevka, zimske ruze u razlicitim tonovima ili buketi poljskog cvijeca u plavim tonovima. Posebno Vam preporucujemo narcis, na koji Vodolija reaguje veoma pozitivno i senzualno. 

RIBE Ovo je znak koji po svom elementu pripada vodi i ove osobe posjeduju izuzetno culnu, romanticnu, senzitivnu i sanjalacku prirodu.
