The inherent greening energy of viriditas was foundational to Hildegard’s understanding of the Holy Spirit, the vivifying breath that animates all living things (Gen. 1:2, Ps. 104:29–30). She fostered a nature-centered pneumatology that allowed for a vibrant and immanent earthly Spirit, enfleshed, embodied, and encountered in forest, field, and flower.
The garden and the whole of the great, green earth was understood to be the place where God’s Spirit and our spirit meet to produce fecundity: holistic wellness for the person and a profound mutual relationship with the natural world...
Hildegard’s notion of viriditas placed her in relationship with the plant community and tapped her into an ancient wisdom that bolstered her divine visions and ecstasies and promoted a prophetic call for ecological social reform.

The Viriditas Chapel of Perpetual Adoration
Coming soon, the first chapel of Cathedral-in-the-Clouds: The Viriditas Chapel of Perpetual Adoration, a VR experience inspired by the visions and music of Hildegard von Bingen, whose feast it is today.
Hildegard von Bingen was an 12th century abbess in the valley of the Rhine in present day Germany. She was a mystic, a scientist, a composer and a writer. In 2012 she was declared Doctor of the Church, among luminaries such as Theresa of Avila, Thomas Aquinas and Augustine of Hippo. Viriditas is a guiding concept in her thinking. It expresses the vital power of nature, specifically of plants. Within this context, she imagined Jesus Christ to be a flower that blooms on the branch that is the Holy Virgin. It is this idea, combined with her vision of the cosmos in an eternal embrace of the divine, that inspired the Viriditas Chapel.
O greenest branch whose breath inspires the wonder of saints. Hail! When you bloom in your branches the heat of the sun flows from you like ointment. In you a beautiful flower blossomed whose fragrance awakened all that was withered. And all emerged in full vigor!
The Viriditas Chapel of Perpetual Adoration will be released free of charge as a Virtual Reality application for the Windows OS. In it you approach the altar of the chapel reverently and kneel down to meditate assisted by the heavenly sounds of Hildegard's musical poem O viridissima virga. After these five spectacular minutes you remain in silent adoration of The Most Holy Eucharist for as long as you please.
The Viriditas Chapel of Perpetual Adoration will be published as part of FoAM's Anarchive, a collection of artifacts that looks at the multi-decade existence of FoAM, a transdisciplinary organisation founded by Maja Kuzmanovic and Nik Gaffney, who became patrons of the chapel during the crowdsourcing campaign for Cathedral-in-the-Clouds.
Cathedral-in-the-Clouds is an umbrella project for the creation of contemplative art inspired by Christian narratives and iconography in the context of contemporary culture. The digital cathedral is being built piece by piece by artists Auriea Harvey and Michael Samyn, formerly Tale of Tales, now Song of Songs.

Holy persons draw to themselves all that is earthly . . . The earth is at the same time mother, She is mother of all that is natural, mother of all that is human. She is the mother of all, for contained in her are the seeds of all.

« O most honored Greening Force [viriditas], You who roots in the Sun; You who lights up, in shining serenity, within a wheel that earthly excellence fails to comprehend. You are enfolded in the weaving of divine mysteries. You redden like the dawn and you burn: flame of the Sun. » – Hildegard of Bingen, 12th century « Look at the pattern this seashell makes. The dappled whorl, curving inward to infinity. That's the shape of the universe itself. There's a constant pressure, pushing toward pattern. A tendency in matter to evolve into ever more complex forms. It's a kind of pattern gravity, a holy greening power we call viriditas, and it is the driving force in the cosmos. Life, you see. » – Hiroko Ai, in Kim Stanley Robinson, Green Mars, 1993
