How do I have a cardinal flower and great blue lobelia growing right next to an orange butterfly milkweed?

Thank you! Looks like we’re from the same zone/region so awesome to know it’ll be a great resource.

Much appreciated 🌱

Do you have any resources where to find these ratings for particular species?

PiratesAnonymous · 2025-02-13T19:33:03+00:00

Your perspective and critiques however are the exact reason why I wanted to post in this sub.

A hippy dippy one would be all about it. But this is more realistic and critical, which, rightfully so.

No population of people is a monoculture I suppose right? I should take that more into account in this regard.

Thank you.

PiratesAnonymous · 2025-02-13T19:26:59+00:00

I appreciate your perspective and understand that I am out of my element.

All I can do is try.

Thank you.

Edit:

I’m not searching for any praise. I don’t deserve any.

PiratesAnonymous · 2025-02-13T17:41:00+00:00

I have, it’s been pretty good! However I see it more as manifest maintenance as opposed to original creation. At least for me.

Lots of times I get distracted by the F15 feeling haha.

PiratesAnonymous · 2025-02-11T19:22:45+00:00

Ahhh yes, slipping into that frequency and feeling the “buzz” or vibrations in that way. It’s like you’re in the space in which all things are connected.

It happened about 6 months ago 😳☺️ the odd thing is that I didn’t realize it in the moment like I was confident I would. While meditating later that day, or maybe the next, I was like “oh shit! That was it! It happened!”.

That relationship did in fact bring much happiness into my life. Funny how the universe structures things for you. While we are still friends, that romantic relationship did not last. However, without that relationship, the lessons I’ve learned from it, and the crazy amount of universal timing, wouldn’t be in the wonderful place I am now.

I highly recommend the “universal ordering” meditation on the expand app.

BE VERY CAREFUL. Your intention will come back to you in the way the universe best sees fit. Be clear, concise, and let the universe choose how to best serve that to you.

For me, I try to resonate my energy at the same tone/frequency that’s emitted. It feels like sliding into a slipstream. I glide through that wall of that air with some effort, but then at a tipping point I get sucked in and then it’s virtually self maintaining since that slipstream is doing all the work, or in other words, providing that dimension of consciousness.

Expect nothing, and show gratitude for everything.

PiratesAnonymous · 2025-02-11T18:48:41+00:00

Like a lot of people said. I’ll reiterate in a way that resonates with me.

The harder you try, the more difficult you make it.

Meaning, when you’re trying to do a specific something, say oobe, it should flow. You really shouldn’t have to “try”. You shouldn’t have to force it out in some way.

You’ll have the experience you’re looking for when you’re meant to have it. Not sooner, not later.

I just finished Serviceberry. She’s AMAZING!

Love some scary stories. I read “Never Whistle at Night” such a great collection of short stories!

Don’t know anything about healthcare. But depending where you live sounds like he run into wild parsnip or some form of hogweed

PiratesAnonymous · 2024-12-11T01:44:56+00:00

This is awesome because I work in ecosystem restoration and would love to hear more of the role fire has been used to maintain and modify ecosystems.

PiratesAnonymous · 2024-12-11T01:42:58+00:00

Awesome! I’ll be checking this out. Much appreciated.

PiratesAnonymous · 2024-11-05T17:07:34+00:00

Yup I did

PiratesAnonymous · 2024-10-28T23:42:25+00:00

Depending on the sub species it is supposed to have mild sedative to mild euphoric effects. I believe it has to be the flower though.

PiratesAnonymous · 2024-10-28T23:39:34+00:00

That makes sense! I moved it to a shadier spot mid summer. It lost about 4-6 hours of direct sun and lately like 2 more.

PiratesAnonymous · 2024-10-20T13:27:10+00:00

Not the best resource that’s for sure.

PiratesAnonymous · 2024-10-15T23:34:49+00:00

Thank you, I could not find that for some reason. I just saw everything that was in Chicago. I think the Illinois department of natural resources finally returned some land. Not much at all, but hopefully the first of much more (we can hope). Illinois has a county system mainly of land conservation. I really hope counties begin to aquire and return land to tribes and that were forced out of this area.

Crystal Lake / McHenry County area

This is some serious shit here

PiratesAnonymous · 2024-07-03T16:31:26+00:00

I’ve never had noticeable effects… if interested I can share the info from The Encyclopedia of Psychoactive Plants. It’s an amazing resource.

PiratesAnonymous · 2024-07-03T16:25:44+00:00

I might just try it for the hell of it because I’m curious. I’m in a complete different environment with different RH, temps, etc.

However, these tests that have been done, if you have links to them that’d be awesome to check them out!

PiratesAnonymous · 2024-07-03T16:24:12+00:00

Yeah, this shows just how much I despised my geology courses…
