Timely Flower Essences
A selection of universally applicable flower essences for this time.
You can use them in any combination or any of them on their own.
Foothills Paloverde
When self-judgment drowns your intuition
The key word for this flower essence is self-judgement. The mind’s job is to make judgments as we go through our day. Yet we can be caught up in those judgements and ignore our feelings and intuition. In that way, your mind becomes a dominant force.
Just as this tree has found a beautiful way to adapt to the harsh desert climate, so too can it help us adapt when we experience the harshness of our own minds. Our minds are great tools for defining ourselves and our reality. Yet our minds alone, without the softness of our heart impressions and feelings, can create a desolate reality. The message of Foothills Paloverde is, ‘Whatever I’m feeling is all right.’
Soaptree Yucca
When you allow the desires of others to influence you
Soaptree Yucca is one of the flower essences that help you develop or strengthen your will. If you are allowing the will or desires of others to influence or dominate you, this flower essence can help. It helps you have clarity of your purpose and the ability to focus your will and intention on what you want.
It also supports you in having faith and inner perseverance. A night-blooming flower, they stand like torches in the desert night sky, softly glowing in troubled times.
Star Evening Primrose
You can change how you perceive things
Many difficult things can be resolved within you when you change the way you are looking at circumstances. If you feel like the outer circumstances of your life are the problem, you can empower yourself by seeing that what you can control is how you perceive them.
Star Evening Primrose supports us in being a force for transformation in the world by helping us see the causes of disharmony and change them inside ourselves. We find ourselves free to choose our own emotional reality as we see our own reflections in our outer lives.
