Emu Medicine Dreaming and Coolamon with flower medicine and Clap Sticks.
Contains these Native Australian Flowers:
-
Alstonia constricta or better known as Quinine Tree or Bitter Bush, found in NSW
-
Rhodanthe anthemoides or better known as Chamomile Sunray or Paper Star, found in QLD, NSW, VIC and TAS
This is the Medicine of the night sky and the guiding stars that contain the stories of family wisdom for generations to come. The Emu was my Uncle’s Totem, he and my Dad use to make Quinine an Ancient Australian Aboriginal Bush Medicine that we use to drink as kids, boiled from the bark of the tree. In this painting is the Quinine Berries which are on the female plants and the Paper Star Flowers.
We must learn to respect and pass on the ways of our culture through the proper initiations.
Flowers
Flowers give us hope and give us something to hang onto. When I was a little girl I went through a lot of horrendous experiences and then a miracle accoured which was carried on a message of a flower which I saw come back to life after being dead right in front of my very eyes.
It was a magical experience and one I almost forgot until I got older and began to remember again. So, flowers can be highly beneficial to the healing process or journey you may be going through at the time. We can forget so many memories and experiences from when we were young because of our day-to-day busy lives that symbolic and colourful paintings with sacred messages and symbols from nature can awaken us to, reminding and connecting us to the purity of our soul and the guidance that comes from within, just dying to come out.
Coolamon
Coolamon is a traditional wooden vessel which has been carved from a tree and used to hold babies, collect berries and bush medicine or used in ceremonies.
Often the different markings or symbols represented who the Coolamon belonged to.
Clap Sticks
Clap Sticks are a traditional instrument used to make rhythm played by women and men during songs and ceremony. The symbols on the Clap Sticks held special meaning.
Painting comes with Certificate of Authenticity, "About Mirree" postcard and story postcard of the "EMU MEDICINE DREAMING WITH COOLAMON".
