Apple Pentagram – Wall Art | Canvas
The hermetic principle “as above, so below” can be found everywhere. The magical pentagram is visible in apple blossoms and also in the fruit that grows from them. This pattern is also present in the flowers of other members of the rose family, including cherries, quinces, pears, blackberries, raspberries, aronia, strawberries, apricots, plums, and mirabelles. All these are considered medicinal plants. The pentagram incorporates the Golden Ratio, a divine blueprint seen throughout the universe, including in our bodies. The clearer the pattern, the more it appeals to our sense of beauty. Even Venus’ orbit around the Earth forms a pentagram. This powerful protective symbol represents perfect harmony, beauty, the five elements, fertility, love, abundance, inner guidance, awakening, and connectedness with all life. Walt Disney even created an educational cartoon in 1957 with Donald Duck explaining pentagrams and the Golden Ratio, humorously showing where the five-pointed star occurs in nature and how humans have applied it, for example, in architecture.
Apples are also a symbol of fertility. Studies show that apple consumption can enhance libido and fertility. Originally from Asia, apples are rich in pectin, catechins, fruit acids, caffeic acid derivatives, sugars, vitamins, the flavonoids rutin and quercetin, antioxidants, and glutamine. Freshly grated apples can help with mild diarrhea or gastrointestinal inflammation. Pectin binds toxins and harmful bacteria, coats the intestinal wall with a protective layer, supports gut motility, and nourishes beneficial gut bacteria. According to Anthony Williams, consuming two or more apples daily may help prevent colon, liver, breast, prostate, and lung cancers, reduce stroke risk, and support autoimmune health. Apples are also beneficial for lymph circulation, skin repair, heavy metal detoxification, blood sugar regulation, and have positive effects in Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and respiratory conditions such as asthma.
Neurobiological studies show that nature- and plant-themed wall decor can activate the “rest nerve” via the biophilia effect, slow the heartbeat, reduce blood pressure, accelerate post-surgery recovery, dilate blood vessels, and lower stress hormones like adrenaline, noradrenaline, and cortisol. It also promotes creativity, free thinking, imagination, problem-solving, concentration, and social cohesion.
This mystical medicinal plant wall art brings healing, energy, harmony, calmness, Feng Shui balance, and relaxation into your space. It makes a beautiful kitchen or pantry decoration and is a perfect gift for nature lovers, herbalists, therapists, phytotherapists, shamans, and homeopaths.
