When marigolds turn their heads to follow the path of the sun from east to west, they suggest that things are moving forward. Combined with its bright colors, this has given rise to meanings of joy, gratitude, warmth, affection, peace, protection, contentment, and understanding. It is no wonder that some people refer to the third flower in the Language of Flowers series of coins as “the grass of the sun”.

Marigolds encompass numerous plants of totally different species, the two most common being Calendula and Tagete. Both belong to the Asteraceae family, are easily confused and have many common properties. The two species also have the same basic meanings in the language of flowers, many of which focus on positivity and patience. With their golden hues and positive energy, marigolds are said to bring light to any situation and have the ability to illuminate and guide us when we face challenges.

Their strong connection to the sun means that marigolds are also associated with heat, passion, sex and love. Apparently, both marigolds and marigolds can be used in spells related to passion, creativity, and warmth, and have also been used in potions and love spells to sustain long-term passion. Marigolds also have multiple culinary uses and health benefits, and exceptionally long blooming and easy to grow, these cheerful flowers are perfect for brightening up our gardens and homes.

Symbolizing positivity, the obverse of the coin shows a young woman with her eyes closed and flowers in her hair enjoying the scent of marigold. Alongside an ornamental side image of a marigold, the reverse of the coin features a pair of marigolds, both of which are actual flower prints.
