At my old home, I used to have a Passion Flower growing on my chicken coop and it’s blooms were like no other! In the spirit of the holidays I wanted to share with you the beautiful story of the meaning behind the Passion Flower and the powerful symbolism associated with each element of this truly intricate and beautiful flower.
When the Spanish and Portuguese missionaries came to the Americas in the 16th century, they used the Passion Flower as a symbolic way to teach about the story of Jesus Christ.
- The 10 petals represent Jesus’ Faithful Apostles
- The five “anthers” are symbolic of the five Sacred Wounds Jesus suffered
- The circle of filaments in the center of the flower represent the Crown of Thorns.
- The three purple stigma represent the 3 nails holding Jesus to the cross.
