The irises are blooming in my backyard. I looked up the meaning of the flower, and this is what I found: Iris Meaning & Symbolism. The iris is a powerful symbol of faith, hope, wisdom, and eternity. In ancient Egypt, the iris represented immortality and guided souls to the afterlife. For Greeks, it was a rainbow bridge to the gods. May your day be as beautiful as these flowers 🌸 ❤️ #HappyMonday #iris #flowers #eternity #newweek #newblessings | Andrea Navedo
