Humus
Definition
noun
The dark, organic component of soil formed by the decomposition of plant and animal matter.
Interpretation
The black matter of rebirth. Humus is where death becomes texture, fragrance, and fertility. It’s the Earth’s memory foam — rich, receptive, resilient.
Living Invitation
Smell the soil after rain. That sweet scent? That’s humus. That’s the Earth remembering itself.
