Plants · Japanese · Hanakotoba & Kami
A specific draw
Frozen card, same seed, same geometry, every time. Flowers as small kami, hanakotoba, the language of flowers, plus the spirits who tend each species through the rainy season and the snow.
Japanese · lotus (hasu)
Kannon
The lotus rises through mud without being marked by it. Kannon, bodhisattva of compassion, stands on a lotus throne. The flower opens in the morning over still water; the seed pod inside is already an architecture.
