The Beauty of a
Flower
Flowers are a source of inspiration for all of us. Their beauty
is a delight for our eyes. The scent brings pleasure in our
smell.
The element associated with the flower
is air. In Tibetan culture, the air element is the source
of healing. It pervades all of creation. The flower releases
its scent into the air for all to enjoy.
In the flower is contained the entire
essence of a plant, which is transformed into a new generation
of the same plant through the seed.
Finding the Flowers for You
The healing properties of each plant is unique. How do we
determine which flower essence is right for you? Starting
with Dr. Edward Bach and continuing today, people have experimented
with flower essences to determine their healing properties.
The results of their research can be used to match the disease
with the right flower. Some practitioners use intuitive techniques,
such as muscle testing, to determine what essences are best
for a person. Either of these methods is effective. Which
do you feel is right for you?
What is an Essence?
An essence is the energy template of a flower, mineral, a
star, or other forms. Water is used as the carrier of the
vibration, the sun is usually used to facilitate the vibrational
transfer,. The moon or heat may be used in some cases. Brandy
is usually used as a preservative to keep the essence fresh.
When a person takes the essence, the
energy signature of the flower is understood. The person can
choose the vibrate at the new level, stay at their current
level, or even return to their current level after experiencing
the new vibration. There is no addictive effect; the person
always has a choice to change. Also, moving to the new vibrational
level can take a few weeks, but at times, the change is almost
immediate.
Different kinds of essences work mostly
with specific levels of a person’s bodies. Flower essences
affect the emotional body strongest, but also affect the spiritual
body. Mineral essences work with mental and physical bodies.
Are Flower Essences Safe?
Flower essences are safe to use at any time. Unlike allopathic
medicines, herbs, aromatherapy, or homeopathy, they do not
force any changes on a person. At each decision point in your
life, you can choose the path you will take. The essence gives
you a clearer view about the results of your choice. Because
you are involved in making the choices, the changes you have
effected are long-lasting. And with the changes occurring
in your emotional and spiritual bodies, resulting physical
manifestations can happen because of your new outlook on life.
Flower essences can be combined with
other therapies effectively. They will not interfere with
the other therapy; they will complement it. Could we ask for
anything better?
Flower Essence Preparation
The preparation of a flower essence is an alchemical process
involving the elements of fire, water, earth, and air. The
flowers are put in a clear glass bowl set on the earth. The
sun is allowed to shine on the bowl for several hours while
the wind circulates, bring the right conditions to allow the
water to hold the essence. The intent of the practitioner
helps to bring the process into fruition.
After the process is done, the essence
is stabilized, usually with brandy. This is called the mother
essence. What is usually sold in stores is a dilution of the
mother essence, called the stock essence. This is used to
create the individual dosage bottles that you will be given
by the practitioner.
