A New Beginning

The Calathea symbolises a new beginning, or turning over a new leaf, which the plant does in the dark. As darkness falls the calathea will fold all of its leaves inward to protect itself, only to open up again once the sun is out. It can be seen as a metaphor for The World After, in which we open ourselves again after a time of darkness and start a new beginning.
