Flower Essence Group Eight flower essence sub-directory site directory h-o-m-e This group of essences contains powerful cleansers and a variety of building blocks related to greater stability, confidence, and authentic patterns of manifested evolutionary illumination. Sunsprite Rose  - provides strong support for recovery from surgery or injury, especially in the head regions.  Often considered useful for issues related to autism and brain damage.  A radiant connection is formed to divine grace and its ongoing inter-action with our inner healer.   Builds etheric and heart/belly centered wisdom as well as practical coping skills. Pulsatilla - excellent support for all matters related to soul recovery or rebirth.   A strong fumigant that purges our energy system of bitterness and its atrophying effects upon our physical and subtle bodies.  VERY POWERFUL and extremely useful for those who are working to disengage long standing patterns of material or emotional hoarding, dislike of self & others, and self-inflicted punishments of any kind. Red Angel Wing Poppy - illuminates all areas of disconnection or avoidance that relates to survival/first chakra matters.  Poppy essences always give us more stamina and courage as we approach difficult and painful healing issues.  This particular essence provides strong support for the heart region, as well as the first chakra and our earthstar centering point.  Especially useful during the raw & messy stages of a healing journey. Lime Scented Pelargonium - a very effective Yang oriented essence that sweetens the auric field as well as the physical body.  It's especially lovely for young males -- babies and small boys will love it in their bathwater.  Also useful for females who have trouble accepting or calibrating the Yang/Male side of their nature. Mugwort Buds - affectionately known as 'baby crone'.  This is a marvelous remedy for midlife Changes! It also provides strong support for newly awakened nadis and meridians, and helps in re-birthing efforts related to our central energy column. Dwarf Morning Glory -  GREAT for those who are obliged to follow a work or school schedule that is out-of-synch with their circadian rhythms.  Also wonderful for those who suffer from Cranky Morning syndrome, addiction to caffeine, and a sluggish daily flow that never quite finds its groove. Purple Loosestrife - traditionally employed for TEMPORARY alignment of the chakra column and subtle body connections. Useful ally for meditation and yoga practice.  Also a practical aid during times of intense spiritual growth including unexpectedly powerful experiences during workshop and independent study programs. Mango Sunset Hibiscus - a classic remedy for issues related to matters of (female) shamed-based sexuality.  EXCELLENT for rape and incest survivors.  The essence also provides hydration and electrical support during the most exhausting phases of healing and recovery.   Reliable ally for PTSD issues, especially when we blame ourselves for not being strong enough to subvert or dissolve our points of pain, fear, or self-loathing. Hawthorne - a very effective heart tonic.  Support for the very powerful creation and maintenance of an inner stillpoint that fans outward with the same radiating warmth as a well functioning fourth chakra.  Many of my students favor this essence as a constitutional. Gentian - illuminates all aspects of awareness, especially during times of struggle when it's difficult to integrate a sense of holistic rather than fragmented perception.   Helps with panic mechanisms that arise at such times.  Also helps with alignment and cleansing of the secondary head chakras. Four O'Clocks  - more support for disrupted or 'lost' circadian rhythms.  This essence is especially useful for changes that are   organic and extremely personal in nature, e.g. new parenthood and midlife sleeping & eating changes.  The essence also found a receptive audience among the military and Peace Keeping research participants.  "You do what you have to do," one participant explained.  "Meanwhile the remedy holds a bookmark on the things you have to set aside to accomplish the goal at hand.  That makes it a lot easier to come back into the 'bigger self' once there's time and space to relax and recharge." Dianthus Sweet-Heart -  a lovely friend for the heart-throat bridge.   This essence is wonderful for those who are too addicted to sarcasm to realize how much it hurts them and everyone who comes in contact with the underlying bitterness.  Excellent for those whose life circumstances have left them with very little alternative to gallows humor.  Softens and illuminates the secondary heart chakras after cleansing them with powerful efficiency. Red-Brown Chrysanthemum  - traditionally advised for those who fear death and their own aging process.  An excellent ally for the menopausal journey.  Equally useful for males in the same age group who seek an empowering and dignified transition from the Known Quantities of youth and earlier adulthood.   Dissolves fear and confusion related to entering unknown territory.  Helps us keep our spiritual head on straight even when our rational mind is going a bit haywire from too much pressure and accelerated patterns of change. Cinquefoil - works equally well for current life traumas AND past life residue -- specifically focused upon healing & recovery from persecution related to green witchcraft.   Helps deflect any retaliatory mechanisms we may develop, however subconsciously.  Also good for recovery from the energetic fallout of malicious gossip that is based on 'pure' jealousy for one's healing/psychic gifts and their manifested development, Anise Agastasche - a brilliant cleanser of all external and internal energy systems.    The essence works as a sweetening agent that is strong & resilient rather than soft & fluffy.  Strongly recommended as a tonic for all spiritual warriors.
