The @viridisgenii symposium is an annual retreat focused on the dispersal of wisdom from those who walk the green path and revel in its mysteries.

VGS 2020 EVENT POSTPONED TO 2021 +++++++++++++++++ VGS 2020 EVENT POSTPONED TO 2021
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ It is with a heavy heart we are writing to let you know the 2020 event and lineup will be postponed to 2021. The lineup will not change as all presenters have confirmed full support. The 6th Annual Viridis Genii Symposium will be now held July 16th, 17th and 18th 2021.

It has been really difficult navigating the Covid-19 situation along with much sitting around and waiting to know more information so we can hopefully make educated, well informed decisions regarding the event. On May 4th Washington Governor Inslee announced the states plan for integrating back into public interaction and work from shelter in place based on a 4 phase baseline.

Each phase is expected to take at least 3 weeks, assuming the best case scenario during each phase provides the data and the continuation of flattening the curve they are hoping to see. Initially it looked like VGS would barely make phase 4 which includes groups 50+ by that time, but it turns out we won't be starting phase 2 any earlier than June 1st.

This new information was helpful to us in giving a loose time line as to whether or not it was feasible to host the event at all.  It also means in the best case scenario based on the timeline the dates of our previously planned VGS would fall during phase 3, which does not allow for groups over 50.

While we recognize the understanding of the virus and is evolving, with new information and projected timelines coming out daily, we are unable to reschedule and also don't want to continue on with the event based on hopeful guesses, only to have people have to juggle and re-juggle plans multiple times. 
Not only that it seems there are still too many unknown variables about how safe it will be to travel and how the retreat center will adjust their operations to comply so they can be open at this time.

We appreciate all of your support and hope you are able to join us next year.
Stay tuned for some special VGS offers we will be announcing this Summer. 
Blooms & Blessings,
VGS Organizers Catamara Rosarium & Marcus McCoy

Viridis genii symposium workshop with Jesse Hathaw Viridis genii symposium workshop with Jesse Hathaway Diaz. 
Workshop: Death in my Pocket: Crafting an ‘Amuleto’ and a Service for the Bony Lady.
Continuing in the exploration of plants and other materia sacred to Santisima Muerte, this workshop will guide participants through the crafting of an amulet under her patronage. These cloth bundles can be made for love, money, sex, knowledge or to foster a closer relationship with the dead or to the Saint. Stories and folklore surrounding the ingredients and their uses will be explored and explained. The workshop will conclude in a service and rosary for la Muerte to bless the amulets. The service will be open to all regardless of workshop participation.

NEW BOOK!! THE TEMPER OF HERBS by world renowned A NEW BOOK!! THE TEMPER OF HERBS by world renowned Alchemist Robert Allen Bartlett
++++++++
In this landmark exploration of the qualities of elemental degree, Robert Allen Bartlett sets up ancient alchemical natural philosophy against modern lab equipment. In the span of 150 pages, he outlines the historical basis for assigning temperament to an herb, and then presents raw laboratory data, in some cases copied facsimile from his own notes, to probe how chemistry either confirms or denies the results achieved through traditional alchemical theory and medical practice.

The text includes a short examination of the development of elemental theory as applied to medicine with an introduction to the four humors and humoral medicine practiced for over a thousand years, and is indeed still practiced in parts of the world. The main focus of interest is in how materials were tested in order to assign their temperament. 

The laboratory methods used in this study are fully explained with many graphic examples and comparisons between materials. The methods of data reduction used to arrive at a final value for a material’s intensity are also explained for each phase of the investigation. 

Future possibilities are discussed and include the possibility of confirming classical designations for medicinal herbs and herbal compounds as well as application towards mineral medicines of the classical materia medica.

Trillium or wake robin was once used to infuse int Trillium or wake robin was once used to infuse into the handles of a Y shaped stick for the purpose of creating a wand for finding treasure. 
This plant is one of my personal favorites and synchronicity has it that as a child my grandmother who's association with the plant was christ and the holy trinity would give us a dime for every one we found (not picked). For us as children the finding of Wake Robin was itself a treasure and today the memories of such a treasures themselves. 
What family plant traditions do you keep?
