Milan's flower language and moral meaning
Among the many plants with cultural connotations, there is an evergreen shrub with an elegant aroma that is always closely connected with courage. When we stare at Milan's finely divided petals like stars, have we ever thought about why this seemingly weak flower can become the spiritual totem of brave people through the ages? The courage of the Milanese flower codes life on the battlefield praises the Milanese flower's "blooming when it has life" characteristics, making it a sacred ornament for soldiers when they go on war. Flowers as thin as corn contain amazing energy, but each bud with a diameter of less than 1 cm can release a fragrance that lasts for half a month. This contrast is just like the simplicity of a soldier's appearance and the tenacity of his heart. Symbolic system of double glory In pottery patterns found in ancient Greek city-state sites, Milan often alternate with laurels. Different from Laurel's one-way honor, Milan carries both the dual connotations of "courage to go on war" and "glory of triumph", and its flower language changes subtly with the (Z-Z) stage. The mystery of light and shadow of thousands of years of legend, the fantasy origin of the twin sun and the moon, the legends spread along the ancient Mediterranean coast reveal the source of Milan's divinity: the sun god Apollo and the moon god Artemis injected their respective divine powers into the stamens, creating a miracle of color change day and night. Modern botanists have discovered that anthocyanins in Milan petal cells do change color with light intensity. Cultural metaphor for tribal division When the two-color flower blooms on the same tree causing controversy, this plot actually reflects the history of the division and integration of ancient tribal alliances. Archaeological evidence shows that red and blue Milan began to be used differently in the helmet decorations of soldiers in many city-states in the 8th century BC, corresponding to the evolution of the emblems of different military groups. Eternal blooming spiritual totem From the Trojan Battlefield to modern medals, Milan has always occupied a special position in the narrative of courage. This plant interprets the greatest philosophy of life with its small body-true courage does not lie in the size of the body, but in whether it can continue to exude spiritual fragrance in adversity. When we touch the warm leaves of Milan, we seem to hear the resonance of countless brave people across time and space over thousands of years.
