Description
The sunflower moves itself in the most direct position in front of the sun so it can get the maximum sun rays. This is symbolic of spiritual faith, and worship because we follow our belief system as the sunflower moves to face the life-giving rays of the sun.
The sunflower is the Greek symbol of Clytie (a water nymph) who turns into a sunflower after grieving over the loss of her love (Apollo). The mythological symbolism here is that Clytie (in the form of a sunflower) is always facing the sun, looking for Apollo’s chariot to return and she might be joined again with her love.
In Chinese symbolism, the sunflower deals with long life, good luck and is considered very auspicious. It’s yellow color signifies vitality and intelligence. It’s a symbol of happiness too.
In esoteric Christianity, the sunflower is a symbol of God’s love. The sunflower can also represent the unwavering faith that guides the soul to the highest spiritual attunement.
Symbolic meanings of the sunflower: faith, longevity, healing, nourishment, focus, good luck, magic, worship, flexibility, spiritual knowing.
