The
Original Set is
the first nine essences co-created while I was traveling in the
U.S. in 1992. The first two, Hawk and Eagle, were made in Boulder,
Colorado, where I lived at the time. Then I went on the road
and made three in Indiana (Catalpa Tree Flower, Tick, Wild Marjoram),
two in Utah (Raven and Deer), and two in California (Mint Flower
and Hibiscus). They moved me, gently yet firmly, through much
emotional turmoil and layers of old, stuck patterns. When they
were completed, my perspective on life had shifted, and my work
co-creating essences with nature had begun.
There
is a special synergy among these nine essences and together they
have a gift for moving you gently yet profoundly through many
layers of mental and emotional baggage. They are an excellent
foundation for those who are new to essences, as well as a powerful
tool for the experienced essence practitioner.
Since
making these essences, I've discovered the order in which they
were made is significant. The first four essences in the set,
Hawk (step back from the detail into the big picture), Eagle
(focus), Tick (embrace anger and express emotions with integrity)
and Catalpa Tree Flower (share in groups, commitment to community),
help you deal with outer situations and dilemmas.
Wild Marjoram,
which balances the breath in and the breath out (feminine and
masculine), is exactly in the center bringing grounding and stability
to the work of the entire set while maintaining your center in
a state of dynamic equilibrium.
The last
four essences, Raven (embrace your Shadow), Deer (claim your
Light), Mint Flower (rebuild foundation and transform abuse),
and Hibiscus (express inner wisdom), explore and honor your inner
being as you prepare to express again out in the world.
Hibiscus
encourages action based on intuition, and as you spiral back
to your outer expression, who is there to meet you but Hawk,
once again keeping the big picture in mind... and the cycle begins
again. This set is a powerful yet gentle tool for healing on
all levels.
