Soraya's Journal

Daisy comes “Day’s Eye” from Anglo saxon. The flower is ruled by the sun - opening and closing on the solar cycle. In flower symbolism Daisies represent innocence, gentleness and purity. And the message “I will never tell”

In celtic lore daisies symbolise spirits of children who died when they were born. In myth, a dryad (wood nymph) who governed meadows, forests and pastures turned herself into daisy’s to avoid the advances of the god of the orchards - vertumnas, thus preserving her innocence.

This began with a simple children's story about a princess, an artist, an evil king and a blackbird.
