Flower Essence Description
Cane Cholla Cactus helps us leap to a new perspective when we struggle with an issue and insist upon defining it in such a way as to block its resolution.
Harmonizing Qualities
- resolution through letting go of your present attitude and approach to a problem, allowing a “leap” to a new point of view
- releasing struggle which creates resistance
- allowing an expansion of your mind and an attitudinal shift which can embrace an apparent duality, bringing greater integration within yourself
- able to joyfully be with others without defensiveness or pretension
Patterns of Imbalance
- struggling with an issue with much effort, but no resolution
- an impasse in achieving understanding or a solution to a problem
- empowering a problem through your insistence to define the problem in a certain way which is blocking other ways of perceiving and resolving it
- maintaining too rigid an attitude or perspective about a situation
- defensiveness or pretension in your relationships with others
