Pflanzen als Bilder der Seele

In 25 reflections on well-known flowering plants, Ernst-Michael Kranich approaches their peculiarities and reveals an understanding of how the inner gestures of the soul correspond to the plant world throughout the seasons. The plant is an image – it indirectly points to the inner state of the human being: from longing in early spring to hope and enthusiasm, and finally to melancholy in autumn. Methodically, Kranich develops an approach that can help overcome the divide between humans and nature.
