December 4, 2021 / Flower Symbolism / By Chris
As a flower with deep significance in many cultures and religions, the white lily signifies purity, luck, innocence, spirituality, growth, abundance, fertility, and new beginnings.
The white lily is atrumpet-like flower that sprouts from a herb-like and bulbous plant that is native to Asia and parts of North America, though some variants have reached the Mediterranean.
For Catholics, the white lily is connected to St. Catherine of Siena, as well as the Virgin Mary,while for the pagans, it is connected to both goddesses Hera and Venus.
It has a deep history, with evidence of its existence tracing as far back as 1580 BC, based on wall engravings found in a villa located in Crete.
It has six distinct petals that curve backwards, giving off an elegant and royal appearance.
Venus(/ˈviːnəs/)[a] is a Roman goddess, whose functions encompass love, beauty, desire, sex, fertility, prosperity, and victory. In Roman mythology, she was the ancestor of the Roman people through her son, Aeneas, who survived the fall of Troy and fled to Italy. Julius Caesar claimed her as his ancestor.Venus was central to many religious festivals, and was revered in Roman religion under numerous cult titles.
The Romans adapted the myths and iconography of her Greek counterpart Aphrodite for Roman art and Latin literature. In the later classical tradition of the West, Venus became one of the most widely referenced deities of Greco-Roman mythology as the embodiment of love and sexuality. She is usually depicted nude in paintings.
