California poppy floral essence - Eschscholzia californica.
California Poppy Floral Essence
A bottle of California poppy (Eschscholzia californica) floral essence arrived today. Floral essences are meant to carry the energetic signature of flowers. They are different from other herbal medicines in that they contain no actual plant bits.
Floral essences appeal to me because you do not have to kill the plant to make them. Essences are created from flowers alive on the plant or from a small number of fresh, respectfully-picked flowers.
I took my first dose just now. It was four drops of the essence in a small glass of water. I will do this four times per day until the bottle is empty.
I choose California poppy as my first essence because I know this plant well. It grows all around my house and throughout the Point Reyes National Seashore, and at the moment, I am spiritually and materially in Point Reyes, California.
Healing human nature project.
I am in the preparation phase of a new project where I will use the floral essences to heal myself as I meander along the trail of life. The idea is that as I heal myself, I bring peace to the human animal. As the human animal (we) calms down, we will be less destructive to the environment.
Benefits of California poppy floral essence.
This is what the maker of the California poppy floral essence writes about its benefits:
Positive qualities: Radiant heart-centered spirituality; strong interior alignment for values and choices
Patterns of imbalance: Attachment to illusion or grandeur, superficial spirituality or fantasy, external glamour or escapism through psychedelic drugs or other out-of-body activities
Healing theme - alignment with purpose.
I’m calling on California poppy to get aligned with my purpose while in preparation for this project.
