Desert Alchemy - Red Root

For those of us who feel guilty because others suffer and we do not, Red Root helps us release enmeshment. It is also for situations in which we are motivated by superstitions or other unconscious forces.

• fosters a discriminate, wise, mature perspective

• perception that escapes cultural conditioning and prejudice
• seeing beyond old fears into reality

Patterns of Imbalance

• entanglement or enmeshment with others
• guilt because you choose not to suffer and others do
• making yourself "small" so that others are not intimidated by you
• unconsciously motivated
• vulnerable to or motivated by fear

NM Essences - Praestans Rhododendron

A flower essence for helping a person to deal with, for themselves, the “burdens of humanity”.
Humanity, collectively, carries many things that could be termed to be “burdens”, including
collective karma and mass consciousness illusions.
This essence is for helping the individual person to release himself from what might be perceived
to be “his individual share” of all of these shared burdens, including the effects of all of the falsehoods that he has bought into as part of the process of being a member of humanity.
