The more I share the pictures I take, the more I learn about nature and the kind of plants I’ve been seeing around where I live. I went for a smoke and decided to go walking around my hood when I walked passed these purple flowers.

I used to always see these but didn’t know what kind of flowers they were. I had to look it up and found out that they are called Chrysanthemums and are common to see this season. I didn’t know they came in purple.

I was curious about what purple Chrysanthemums symbolized and found out that they can represent death and grief. Other cultures, see them as symbols of royalty and elegance. I always associate the color purple with royalty, spirituality, and Prince — since I’m a musician.

One thing that’s really important to me is the fact that they represent spirituality and transformation. They also represent the crown chakra, which is the chakra at the top of your head. This is where a lot of intuitive thoughts are believed to come from. I learned about chakras through anime.

I feel like I saw these at the perfect time because my life is at a crossroads and a new beginning. Everything is happening so fast, and with all the important choices I’ve been making and still have to make, I keep feeling like I’m one step closer to some big miracle.

I can feel my winning season is just out of my reach and right around the corner. I’m telling you I can feel it and these flowers are definitely a sign.
