The Rose of Jericho is a spiritual plant with amazing abilities and uses. There are 2 plants who share the name but todays blog will focus on the more common one found in most spiritual stores and botanicas. 

The Rose Of Jericho, is known by many names such as:

  • Jericho Rose

Scientifically, it’s a member of the Spike Moss Family (Selaginella lepidophylla). It a native plant from the Chihuahuan Desert of the United States and Mexico.

It’s most famous for being known as the "resurrection plant" for its quality of coming back to life. The plant when not near a water source curls up into a dry ball. When supplied again with water, the plant magically opens up with beautiful, fernlike leaves. They often turn a bright, vibrant green. When water is removed, it goes back into a state of hibernation again until water is introduced again. It is much like a tumbleweed, it stays rolled into a ball until it comes into a source of water.

How to work with your Rose of Jericho:

There are many ways to work with Jericho Roses. The first step after buying your plant is to find a large enough bowl for the plant to fit in. Jericho Roses open up quite wide sometimes.

Hold the plant in your hands for a few minutes before you place it in the chosen vessel, take a moment to feel the energy of the plant. Sit and pray, meditate or give affirmations to the spirit of the plant.

After you charge/pray with your Jericho Rose, place it in the chosen vessel.

The next step is to add water to your plant. You can use Holy Water, River Water, Lake Water or even just plain tap water. Fresh water is best, as salty waters may have an adverse effect on the plant.

After the Jericho Rose is in its vessel, light a candle of your size & choosing near the plant (don’t let the flame get too close of course).

Every week or so, change the water so it’s always fresh and clear. Keep this water for use later on, we’ll explain further below.

Place coins in the water so your Jericho Rose always keep abundane and prosperity growing and coming to your home or business. Some people will also leave crystals "charging" on top of their Jericho Rose from time to time. 

Some people choose to let the Jericho Rose dry out every once in awhile and then let it come “back” to life as a form of abundance and prosperity work. You can do this if you choose, some people will completely submerge their Jericho Rose, others will only keep the bottom part covered in water. The choice is yours, you will have to feel out the best way to work with your Jericho Rose in time.

The information coming from Yeyeo botanica is definitely unique. Many of the topics Elemi teaches and touches on are not found any where. I strongly suggest to subscribe to the You Tube channel and stay in tune. Blessings.
