Poppy | Renewal The ancient Greeks associated poppies with Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, harvest, and fertility. Poppies are commonly found in wheat and cornfields. Poppies are also connected to Demeter’s daughter, Persephone, the goddess of the underworld, as the poppy was the flower that Demeter held to comfort her when Persephone had gone missing. The poppy is commonly and traditionally associated with the cycle of life, particularly renewal after death. The essence serves us with the energy of transformation from one phase to another, giving us spirited energy to move forth.
