“O Frondens Virga” (https://youtu.be/yJuuZNvDmjQ?si=N16ju9Yzezfm829R) is a 12th century psalm by Hildegard of Bingen. It recalls the elemental association of the divine feminine with earthly fertility with Mary as the focal point.

The brilliant @goingmedieval.bsky.social (from Bluesky) on Hildegard Of Bingen
Meet Hildegard Of Bingen: The Most Important Medieval Intellectual That You’ve Never Heard Of
"When we remember Hildegard, then, we should also take time to acknowledge the vast numbers of forgotten women who could have achieved what she did given better support and fewer men literally trying to lock them inside for their own gain. Hildegard accomplished a lot in spite of her circumstances, but she’d likely also want us to remember the other women who we can’t hear about."
Happy! The opening was a great success and the reactions were all positive.
"The highlight is the triad: telling history at a historical site, researching it and making it tangible."
