Aconite Flower Symbolism. Aconite appears in Christian iconography as a symbol of death and it is the symbol for toxicity in European nature. This beautiful flower is an elegant option for a bouquet and boasts an appealing fragrance.
Some flowers even take on a new meaning dependent on the number gifted - for example a single red rose denotes love at first sight whereas a dozen red roses say be mine. Absinth or Wormwood means separation and torment of love. Unlike Aconitum Winter Aconite does not appear to be poisonous.
Aconite or Monkshood means misanthropy and poisonous words.
The colors and the shape of flowers lend to their meaning but cultures adapt these flowers and their meanings differently. 10022020 Below are twenty flowers whose names derive from or are associated with twenty magical sweet-smelling Greek myths. 27042010 And the MonkshoodWolfsbaneAconite reference is particularly symbolic to me.
