Explore tales from three very different plant goddesses from three very different parts of the world.
Mbokomu is the first mother of humanity and the first gardener of earth- originating from what is now called the Congo.
Sadly due to the conquest of the Europeans, details of this story seem to be tainted.
Then Chicōmecōātl- the Mexica (Aztec) goddess of corn. Her name literally translates to seven serpent. She is a symbol of life and death- blood and rain !
And lastly we explore Kaguya-hime- a Japanese ancient epic about a moon goddess sent to earth inside a bamboo stalk and raised by a humble bamboo cutter. Her beauty was unrivaled and admired by many.
It seems that every culture has tales of female deities attached to plants. I dream that we can reconnect with our connection to nature and specifically to plants. They have desperately been trying to talk to us. They have been begging us to give them love and attention and care for them, as it is our purpose here on earth.
