Daffodil (Narcissus spp.), member of the Amaryllidaceae family, has long been honoured across Europe and the Mediterranean as a harbinger of early spring, a sign of return after the long sleep of winter, and a symbol of the soul’s renewal through descent and rebirth.
The flower essence of Daffodil holds the medicine of introspective pause, offering support during times when catabolic chrysalis calls for stillness, reflection, and surrender to the quiet work happening beneath the surface. Daffodil encourages the softening of judgment, the release of rigid identities, and the ability to enact the art of active listening within and without. Daffodil’s influence extends to the subtle movements of thought, emotion, and communication - helping to clear congestion both in body and mind.
Steeped in myth, Daffodil is intimately tied to the story of Persephone who was drawn to the narcissus bloom and, in reaching for it, crossed the threshold into the underworld. In this way, Daffodil teaches that moments of loss, uncertainty, or surrender are not endings but necessary passages towards deeper wisdom and regeneration.
Physiologically, traditional herbalists recognised Daffodil as carrying cooling and drying properties, valued for external applications to soften hardened swellings, ease inflammation, and alleviate stagnant tissues.
It is important to acknowledge that Daffodil, particularly the bulb, is considered toxic in traditional herbalism and was historically used with great caution by professionals, primarily in topical preparations rather than internal remedies. Working with the flower essence form allows us to utilise Daffodil’s attributes safely, without risk of harm.

The flower essence of Daffodil is made through solar infusion where the flower’s vibration is imprinted within the water’s energetic matrix. This 15mL bottle is technically a stock bottle, meaning you can further dilute the stock essence to make dosage bottles [read more on Flower Essences, including their method of action, how to use them & how to make up a dosage bottle]. Each stock bottle contains 7 drops of the original mother essence of Daffodil.
The virtues of Daffodil can be obtained through ingesting the essence, anointing talismans and candles, and adding a few drops to a room spray or floor wash to bring peace into the home.
