The Inner Garden Of Spices
Song of Solomon 4:13-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Song of Solomon 4 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verses portray the garden as an orchard of fragrant spices and living waters. They invite the beloved to awaken and enter, tasting the fruits and drawing forth fragrance.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Neville’s psychology, the garden is your interior state, and every spice is a vibrational quality you are free to assume. The pomegranate orchard stands for abundance and sweetness; camphire, spikenard, saffron, calamus, and cinnamon map the fragrances of your thoughts—joy, peace, desire, courage, gratitude—each a fragrance you can cultivate. The fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon declare that your inner life is a perpetual source. When you read 'Awake, O north wind; and come, thou south,' you are called to invite your attention to move through your mind, allowing energies to flow in and out until the garden breathes with life. Let your beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits—name the I AM as that beloved, and let the garden display its fruit as your lived experience. Practically, you revise any lack by assuming that this inner state is already fulfilled and feel it real in your chest, then watch as appearances align with it.
Practice This Now
Imaginative_act: Assume the role of the gardener tending your inner garden; revise any sense of lack by imagining the spices flowing freely and feeling the pleasant fruits ripen in your chest as real.
