The date of my birth and the flower associated with it is "Belladonna".
This is amusing in the sense that I tend be drawn to crone archetypes, and this one seems to signify it.
Atropa Belladonna:
"The generic name of the plant, Atropa, is derived from the Greek Atropos, one of the Fates who held the shears to cut the thread of human life - a reference to its deadly, poisonous nature."
"its juice was used by the Italian ladies to give their eyes
greater brilliancy, the smallest quantity having the effect of dilating the pupils of the eye."
Interesting also seeing my pupils are naturally widely dilated.
