human souls we have the potential of becoming universal citizens and co-creators
and assist in bringing forth a world that supports the well-being of all
life. The Field and Flower Earth Essences were made to assist us in finding
our unique paths and the concrete permutations of these universal truths within
this potential.
Flower essences are solutions of flower-infused water and a preservative, usually brandy or vinegar. A specific number of flowers are picked just as they are approaching first full bloom, placed in a bowl with purified water and left in the sun for several hours. This leaves an energetic signature or pattern in the flower water. Thevibratory patterns facilitate healing, depending upon their purpose, for humans, animals, plants and land areas.
Developed between 2000 and 2001, the Earth Essences are intended for clearing and balancing environments, "feeding" and attracting the nature spirits and elemental Beings of nature.The essences pertain to the soil, atmosphere, water, insects, plants, aspects of land, buildings and nature’s rhythms. Each remedy is made from a specific plant plus a pattern infusion from the creating level of nature.
The essences work through resonance. Simply, all form and matter becomes manifest from living, spiritual Idea-Beings, "moved down "through different planes of consciou, each with its particular laws of of that kingdom, unto the Earth level. There are many different vibrations, tones, notes and movements in the world, akin to a grand, complex, mysterious and ongoing work of music.
Each essence in the Earth Essences set carries a specific resonance: they convey an essential reflection of the archetypal patterns of soil, water, plants, insects, etc. They connect the earthly manifestations to what things are in their source pattern state by re-establishing and maintaining communication links to their archetypes. Current pressures on Earth, deriving from a "loss", more like a temporary suppression or forgetting, of humans perceiving the spiritual in our evolution , many life forms , such as plants, soil, animals on Earth are not in accord with the frequency level of their true or full patterning. When a plant, for example, is able to connect to its archetypal pattern, it begins aligning to a better state of balance, of life force. This in turn positively impacts all around it.
Truly a gift fromworking closely with the spiritual beings in nature, the essences invite in the nature spirits and open a linkbetween natural life forms and their authentic, pure state, orienting the forms being consciously addressed to their proper patterns.
Several things begin to happen in this process. The essences serve as a bridge to align the level of archetypal living idea, the entelechy,with the level of nature that works to maintain form. A "conversational" bridge is also created between these levels and the person working with the essences, to facilitate conscious, participtory communication with nature and the evolutionary spiritual impulses shaping life on Earth. The forms receiving the essences themselves will begin to embody a higher state of life organization and vitality.
Creation of the essences has been supported naturally through the Field and Flower garden, with the overall intention that everything that is a part of the garden is to become fully itself (as possible!). This garden exists within my small farm and is a fulcrum for healing all that lives on the farm. Reverence for life and empathetic observation is the foundation of the work that allows the living realities behind the forms of nature to become intimately communicable in my consciousness. It is beyond an ordinary sense perception or intellectual faculty, is a capability inherent to every human soul, and everyone’s experiences will pertain to their individuality, yet reveal a common , objective "inkling" of the working signatures in the beings of the subtle worlds.
Communication, observation and working with the essences is an ongoing, expanding process. Insights and thoughts, as well as perceptible events and changes occur through this dynamic process. Acknowledgment of what occurs, by way of change, and progression of becoming serves as a signal to the nature and cosmic intelligences our awareness of what is happening (or not!) and so moves us along into the next learning process.
What I have learned about these essences is not only do they work to balance my land, garden, home and all the organisms that dwell here, the patterns they establish assist me too, in becoming truly myself. Earth is where we do our most important spiritual work: we have a co-evoIutionary relationship with the Earth's bodies: physical, soul and spiritual . From using the essences, consistently, rythymically, and meditatively , I am able to perceive with more clarity and trust what needs to be done, interacting with nature and my life in a more beneficial, flowing and reciprocal way. The experience has brought increased organic/cosmic order,life vitality, peacefulness and well-being to the world I live in. It carries beyond the farm’s boundaries and positively impacts the whole.
It is a time on Earth when all life forms need to "awaken" and move towards full expression of the Divinity in matter, beyond the distortions and limitations that interfere with this expression: materialistic thinking (denial of spirit); pollution, radiation, toxins and negligence/unconsciousness.
As with all living realities, the Earth Essences work and unfold over time, weaving with the evolutionary timing and purpose of the individual using them: human free will retains its autonomy. At all particpitation in the process is up to you, your understanding, level of growth, destiny and willingness to journey forth. The essences are inclusive of other balancing practices, whether you are working with Biodynamics, Feng Shui or any other conscious form/evolution energy work. More information on using the essences and descriptions of their activity range is provided in the individual essence solution details.
