Why do humans love flowers?

Queen Maria [in Spirit] stoops to pluck a beautiful blossom, saying—

I will show you the correct way to pick a flower here [the Astral]—

Take the tender stem between the thumb and first and second fingers.

Press the stem hard and then take the other hand and carefully bend the flower toward you. Hold it tightly with one hand while with the other you break—or cut the stem loose about one inch from the branching point—

Upon taking it into the house, dip it in very cold water, shake it twice hard, then twirl it around three times.

If an earth plane person who wishes to see a loved one's face is a sensitive, and the vibrations are right, and he has faith, he should place the flower before that loved one's picture.

The flower colours best for people born in the following months are—

January, red rose—

February, dark yellow rose—

March, a lavender flower—

April, pink—or yellow flower—

May, blue flower—

June, red rosebud—

July, a very large red rose—

August, a cream-coloured rose—

September, a pink rose—

October, red and white carnation—

November, white camellia—

December—pure white full-blown rose.

The flower world expresses the colours of the loved ones, and in time mortals can see the astral faces reflected in the blossoms if there is great faith.

Turn the flower toward the East in the day, and in the evening toward the West.

The water should be changed once a day—if possible at the same hour each day, and always in the morning.

Flowers are mirrors of the soul—the reflection to the earth of the astral faces.

Flower lovers are usually sensitive, I mean the mortal upon the earth who possesses the flower because he loves it, not because it adds to physical beauty. Those people who really love flowers are sensitive and artistic, as a rule.
