The Viridis Genii is the green spirit, the intelligence and life-force that is both hidden and revealed. It is the animating force of the wild wood and the depths of the sea. It shrouds us, it engulfs us with its veiled green mist that awakens the heartbeat that delivers fecundity to the earth, the very essence of life. It is the Green Gnosis one receives from their deep connection and communion with the genus loci.
