Red Bottlebrush

Red Bottlebrush
Callistemon - from the Greek, kallistos,
most beautiful and stema, a stamen.

Letting Go of the Past – Flowing with Change
Resolving Mother issues

Spiritual Meaning: Abundance, laughter, joy, the essence of the kookaburra. The flowers are used to celebrate birth and all that is new and sustaining.

Indigenous people of Australia used the bottle brush flowers as a natural energy drink, ingeniously taking full advantage of their natural surroundings. Soaking the flowers in water essentially drinking all the natural goodness. The same method was used for the Banksia flowers. Bottle brush essential oil is used to harmonize a room or house bringing tranquil healing vibrations.
