Teachings on the<br />

Medicine Buddha Sadhana<br />

Ven. Thrangu Rinpoche<br />

"If one meditates on the Medicine Buddha, one will eventually attain enlightenment, but<br />

in the meantime one will experience an increase in healing powers both for oneself and<br />

others and a decrease in physical and mental illness and suffering."<br />

— Lama Tashi Namgyal ---<br />

Whether or not we have a very strong motive to attain Buddha hood, we all desire these sorts<br />

of relative objectives, so deity meditation provides tremendous incentive for the practice of<br />

dharma medicine.<br />

This is all possible with meditation because of the special quality of the vajrayana, which<br />

takes enlightenment as the path, rather than seeing it merely as a goal. Through the three<br />

processes of abhisheka, which ripens the mental continuum; oral transmission, which supports<br />

one’s practice; and the teachings, which liberate, one is connected directly to the enlightened<br />

state transmitted by the guru and the lineage. Thereafter, when one practices or merely brings<br />

to mind those teachings, one is instantly reconnected with that compassionate primordial<br />

awareness, and this constant reconnecting then becomes one’s path, bringing with it the rapid<br />

purification of mental defilements and the rapid accumulation of merit and wisdom. The<br />

recognition of this connection is the uncovering of one’s own wisdom. If it goes<br />

unrecognized, it still exists in the practitioner’s mental continuum as a seed, which will<br />

gradually ripen according to conditions."<br />

Reasons for a practitioner to choose this kind of practice: "We might think that fundamentally<br />

we are practicing the Medicine Buddha in order to benefit our own bodies, whereas the<br />

motivation of bodhicitta is the wish to benefit all beings. But in fact there is no contradiction,<br />

because, in order to be effective in benefiting other beings, we need to accomplish an<br />

excellent Samadhi or meditative absorption; and in order to accomplish that, together with the<br />

insight and realization that it brings, we need to have a stable practice. In order to have a<br />

stable and profound practice, we need to be physically and mentally healthy or comfortable,<br />

because by being comfortable in our body, and comfortable in our mind, we will be free of<br />

obstacles to diligence in practice and free of obstacles to the cultivation of meditative<br />

absorption. So therefore, we are practicing the Medicine Buddha in order to attain states of<br />

mental and physical health or balance, not merely for our own benefit, but for the benefit of<br />

others as well."<br />

* * *<br />

"The primary technique in the meditation consists of imagining ourselves to be the Medicine<br />

Buddha, conceiving of yourself as the Medicine Buddha. By replacing the thought of yourself<br />

as yourself with the thought of yourself as the Medicine Buddha, you gradually counteract<br />

and remove the fixation on your personal self. And as that fixation is removed, the power of<br />

the seventh consciousness is reduced. And as it is reduced, the kleshas or mental afflictions<br />

are gradually weakened, which causes you to experience greater and greater well-being in<br />

both body and mind."<br />

* * *<br />

"It is through regarding oneself as the deity that defects are gradually eradicated and qualities<br />

gradually revealed. The primary technique of visualization is to visualize ourselves as the<br />

deity, because the potential to transcend our problems is innate rather than external to us."<br />

* * *<br />

"We supplement the visualization of ourselves as the deity with visualizations such as<br />

imagining the actual wisdom deities themselves dissolving into ourselves again and again, by<br />

means of which we receive their blessing. Sometimes we visualize the deity in front of us,<br />

separate from ourselves, thinking that rays of light from the deity’s heart engulf and pervade<br />

us, granting the blessing of the deity. And sometimes we visualize that rays of light, which<br />

embody the blessing of that deity in front of us, strike all beings, removing their obstacles,<br />

increasing their longevity, wisdom, and so on."<br />

* * *<br />

"The practice of the Medicine Buddha comes primarily from the uncommon tradition of the<br />

vajrayana, which means that the transmission of the practice is done using three processes<br />

called the empowerment, which ripens; the instruction, which frees; and the reading<br />

transmission, which supports. The function of empowerment, the formal ceremony or ritual of<br />

empowerment, is to introduce you to the practice and to the process of visualization and so<br />

forth, which will make up the practice. The function of the instruction, which frees, is to give<br />

you complete access to the practice by means of telling you literally how to do it— what you<br />

do with your body, what you say with your speech, and what you think with your mind. The<br />

function of the reading transmission, which supports, is to transmit the blessing of the lineage<br />

of the practice which serves to consecrate or bless your practice in the form of sound. Because<br />

the lineage has been transmitted as the sound of the words of its transmission, when the<br />

reading transmission is given to you, you simply listen to the sound and think that by doing so<br />

you receive the blessing of the lineage."<br />

* * *<br />

"With regard to the empowerment, you should understand that the Medicine Buddha practice<br />

is not solely a vajrayana practice. Like the practice of mahamudra, it is a combination of<br />

vajrayana [tantra] and sutra. For example, while we could say that mahamudra is primarily<br />

taught in the vajrayana, it is also found in certain sutras, such as the Samadhiraja Sutra, and so<br />

forth. In the same way, this practice of the Medicine Buddha is a combination of what the<br />

Buddha taught about the Medicine Buddha in the sutras of the Medicine Buddha and in<br />

various tantras. Because it is connected with vajrayana, it is most appropriate to receive the<br />

empowerment to enhance the practice; but because it is also connected with the sutras, it is<br />

acceptable to do the practice without the empowerment as well."<br />

The reading transmission or lung for the Medicine Buddha practice tells what the practitioner<br />

should actually be doing at that point in the liturgy, and what the various symbols and<br />

symbolic actions mean.<br />

The liturgy begins with a supplication of the Medicine Buddha and his retinue, including the<br />

holders of the lineage of this teaching, in order to invite the awareness of and to receive the<br />

blessings of the deity and the lineage.<br />

The invocation of the principle Medicine Buddha begins with these lines:<br />

You are endowed with an oceanic treasury of qualities and merit;<br />

by the blessing of your inconceivable compassion<br />

you calm the suffering and torment of sentient beings.<br />

I supplicate you, Light of <strong>LAPIS</strong> <strong>LAZULI</strong>.<br />

The description and commentary on the arms and hands points out how they symbolize the<br />

Medicine Buddha's mastery of both physical and spiritual aspects of healing:<br />

The Medicine Buddha has two arms: his right hand in the mudra of supreme generosity holds<br />

an arura. His left hand in meditation mudra holds a begging bowl.<br />

His right hand is extended, palm outward, over his right knee in the gesture called supreme<br />

generosity. In it he holds the arura, or myrobalan, fruit. This plant represents all the best<br />

medicines. The position of his right hand and the arura which he holds represent the<br />

eradication of suffering, especially the suffering of sickness, using the means of relative truth.<br />

Sickness can be alleviated by adjusting the functioning of interdependent causes and<br />

conditions by the use of relative means within the realm of relative truth, such as medical<br />

treatment and so on. The giving of these methods is represented by the gesture of the<br />

Medicine Buddha’s right hand.<br />

His left hand rests in his lap, palm upward, in the gesture of meditative stability or meditation,<br />

which represents the eradication of sickness and suffering— and, indeed, the very roots of<br />

samsara— through the realization of absolute truth. From the point of view of either relative<br />

truth or absolute truth, the fundamental cause of sickness and suffering is a lack of<br />

contentment and the addictive quality of samsara. Therefore, to indicate the need for<br />

contentment, in his left hand he holds a begging bowl.<br />

Visualization is much more than merely wishful fantasy:<br />

"More important than how many deities you visualize is to understand what you are doing.<br />

And most important is to understand that by visualizing yourself as the Medicine Buddha you<br />

are not pretending to be something that you are not, and that by visualizing the Medicine<br />

Buddha and his retinue in front of you, you are not pretending that they are in a place where<br />

they are not. By definition, Buddhas are omniscient. Whenever someone thinks of them,<br />

brings them to mind, or supplicates them, they are aware of it and respond with their<br />

compassion and blessing. In the final analysis, the situation is identical to their actually being<br />

present anywhere they are thought of. Therefore, it is always appropriate to regard a Buddha<br />

that is present in one’s mind as actually being present in front of one. When you think that the<br />

Medicine Buddha, together with his retinue, is present in front of you, it is really true that they<br />

are.<br />

Visualizing yourself as the Medicine Buddha is also appropriate, because your fundamental<br />

nature— what you truly are— is Buddha nature. Buddha nature is essentially the potential to<br />

attain awakening. At some point in the future you will attain the same awakening or Buddha<br />

hood as the Medicine Buddha himself. By visualizing yourself as the Medicine Buddha, you<br />

are assuming the appearance of what fundamentally you are even now and what manifestly<br />

you will be upon your awakening. It is to acknowledge this truth that you assume the aspect<br />

4


of the body, speech, and mind of the Medicine Buddha, which is, therefore, entirely<br />

appropriate.<br />

"If you can visualize clearly, it is best to do all of this very slowly and gradually. While you<br />

continue to say the mantra, you think that rays of light emerge from the self-visualization, go<br />

to the front visualization, and then from the front visualization outwards to the pure realms,<br />

proceeding gradually and slowly. Especially when the blessings of body, speech, and mind<br />

rain down upon and dissolve into you, you can do the visualizations in sequence: first,<br />

visualizing the blessings of body raining down, without being in any kind of a hurry and so<br />

quite distinctly; and then visualizing the blessings of speech and then the blessings of mind. If<br />

you find that the visualization is extremely unclear, if you wish, you can do it all at once. But<br />

if you do it gradually and slowly, you will find that you will get a much stronger sense of the<br />

blessings actually entering into you. By taking your time with the visualization, you will<br />

develop real confidence, a real feeling of the blessings entering into you."<br />

A special type of visualization when the main point is the actual alleviation of sickness:<br />

You can visualize yourself as the Medicine Buddha, if you wish, but the main focus is to<br />

actually visualize a small form of the Medicine Buddha, no larger than four finger-widths in<br />

height, in the actual part of your body that is afflicted. So if it is an illness or pain in the head,<br />

visualize a small Medicine Buddha in he head; Visualize the Medicine Buddha in that place,<br />

and think that from this small but vivid form of the Medicine Buddha rays of light are<br />

emitted. These rays of light are not simply light, which is dry, but liquid light having a quality<br />

of ambrosia. This luminous ambrosia or liquid light actually cleanses and removes the<br />

sickness and pain— whatever it is. You can do this not only for yourself, by visualizing the<br />

Medicine Buddha in the appropriate part of your own body, but you can do it for others as<br />

well by visualizing the Medicine Buddha in the appropriate part of their body or bodies. The<br />

radiation of rays of light of ambrosia and so on is the same.<br />

This can be applied not only to physical sickness but to mental problems as well. If you want<br />

to get rid of a particular type of anxiety or stress or depression or fear or any other kind of<br />

unpleasant mental experience, you can visualize the Medicine Buddha seated above the top of<br />

your head and think in the same way as before that luminous ambrosia or liquid light emerges<br />

from his body, filling your body and cleansing you of any problem, whatever it is.<br />

5


Bhaisajyaguru Tathagata,<br />

you who shine in the eastern realm,<br />

May we know your healing purity<br />

which cures all sorrow, pain, and ill.<br />

In your land of Lapis lazuli,<br />

your power revealed through meditation:<br />

You dispense your medicine of wondrous Dharma<br />

that sentient beings might know Relief.<br />

Never are we apart from your Pure Love,<br />

though clouds of karma oft’ obscure our sight.<br />

Help us walk the Path through suffering and its cause;<br />

the end: Nirvana, ceaseless joy.<br />

May peace of Heart pervade all beings,<br />

without, within, and through boundless time and space.<br />

Introduction<br />

In my fascination for homeopathy I have always strived to experience more and more of it.<br />

It has always been clear to me, that through experience the knowledge grows and takes its<br />

place in a lot faster and efficient way. I love reading about remedies and substances but often<br />

I can not image exactly how that information would come to life until I have had a similar<br />

experience myself or with someone or something around me.<br />

The reason why I have chosen to write about a trituration and therefore to go into the<br />

experience is because I did not only want to read about something and leave the rest to<br />

imagination. To me a trituration or a proving covers the totality of what I find essential to<br />

know in homeopathy.<br />

If I look at it from the four main pillars of homeopathy; I can relate to these in the following<br />

manner:<br />

• Minimum dose: it gives me a little of something, not too much of one thing that would<br />

enough to make me tired of it.<br />

• Like cures like: it gives a bit of thinking and a bit of feeling; it gives me what I need to<br />

keep motivating myself, it is a form of healing, if you like.<br />

• Totality: it covers all the subjects in homeopathy, the proving, symptom registration,<br />

symptom translation, pathology, repertory, writing the Materia Medica and finally<br />

understanding the substance as a whole.<br />

• Individuality: a proving meets my necessities in this process where I can learn all of<br />

that necessary to be a good homeopath.<br />

I can only say that these two years of triturations have been a very exciting and most of the<br />

time pleasant journey, even if at times, I cursed myself for having taken part in something so<br />

dynamic. Sometimes it was hard to keep up with the experiences. During the trituration of<br />

Lapis lazuli one of the most rewarding experiences was the collective painting we did, in<br />

which some essential themes of the remedy became clear to us. Please view the painting on<br />

the previous page.<br />

I do recommend everyone to do this, even if it is just once in your life, it will certainly<br />

broaden your views. I hope my text encourages you to gather strength or even just curiosity to<br />

take on such adventure.<br />

I dedicate this work to all the brothers and sisters around the world that have taken on the<br />

challenge and I thank my mentor, Alize Timmerman for her passionate guidance during this<br />

journey.<br />

Chapter 1<br />

1. Rocks and Gem stones: an introduction to formation; history, religion & medicine<br />

2 1a. Transformation cycle of rocks and formation of gems in term definition :<br />

Magma: Molten rock material that forms igneous rocks upon cooling. Magma that reaches<br />

the surface is referred to as lava.<br />

Igneous rock: A rock formed by congealing rapidly or slowly from a molten state. This<br />

forms sediment. These are generally very hard. These are liquid lava rocks underground.<br />

Igneous rock = born of fire. It’s a solidified rock.<br />

Sedimentation: is the process of deposition of mineral grains or precipitates in beds or other<br />

accumulations. Here comes sedimentary rock from.<br />

Sedimentary rock: A rock formed by the accumulation and cementation of mineral grains<br />

transported by wind, water, or ice to the site of deposition or chemically precipitated at the<br />

depositional site, built layers on layers. Many years of slow build up. Fossils clear prove<br />

sedimentary - here we look for history of rocks, made gently enough to preserve living things.<br />

They are easy to tear apart. Cooling or breaking down process. Impressions and experiences<br />

built up over a longer period of time. This is the opposite of igneous rocks.<br />

• Shale or mudstone is made of tiny particles of clay. It forms in the sea bottom.<br />

Metamorphic rock: These are what happen when sedimentary and igneous rocks become<br />

changed, or metamorphosed, by conditions underground. The four main agents that<br />

metamorphose rocks are heat, pressure, fluids and strain. These agents can act and interact in<br />

an infinite variety of ways. As a result, most of the thousands of rare minerals known to<br />

science occur in metamorphic ("shape-changed") rocks.<br />

The fiery element is important in all the gems, fire melds down to basic form. The heat can<br />

bring about sudden change.<br />

• Marble: lime stone turns into marble.<br />

• Gneiss: (pronounced nice) is a typical metamorphic rock type, in which a sedimentary<br />

or igneous rock has been deeply buried and subjected to high temperatures and<br />

pressures.<br />

• Migmatite: it is partly melted. This is an extreme example of metamorphism, like<br />

putting gneiss through a taffy-puller.<br />

Crystals (gems) are formed when igneous rocks (born of fire) and sedimentary rocks (sand<br />

stone that contains water) meet. The result of this meeting is nothing like the original<br />

substances, a big transformation takes place.<br />

Crystals 3 : are homogenous solid formed by a repeating, three-dimensional pattern of atoms,<br />

ions, or molecules and having fixed distances between constituent parts.<br />

A crystal is a mineral, especially a transparent form of quartz, having a crystalline structure,<br />

often characterized by external planar faces.<br />

Characteristics of crystal structures:<br />

• Crystals can’t be seen with the naked eye.<br />

• Crystals are formed through tension and pressure.<br />

• Andesite: have small crystals very small volcanic.<br />

• Plutonic: have bigger crystals.<br />

• Pegmatite: have very large crystals. Where most crystals form, hot magma comes in<br />

contact with water (fluid) then crystals start to form. Brought up by slow cooling.<br />

Rock identification tables 4<br />

These tables will help you identify almost any rock you're likely to find. First determine<br />

whether your rock is igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic. The quick way to tell is:<br />

• Igneous: little texture or layering; mostly black, white and/or grey minerals; may look<br />

like lava.<br />

• Sedimentary: layers of sandy or clayey rock (strata); tends to split along layers;<br />

mostly brown or grey; may have fossils and water or wind marks.<br />

• Metamorphic: layers of light and dark minerals (foliation), often wavy; various<br />

colours; glittery from mica.<br />

Then start in the left column of the appropriate table and work your way across. Follow the<br />

links to pictures and more information. If you don't find a match, try another of the three big<br />

types.<br />

Grain Size has two values: "coarse" grains are visible, and the minerals can usually be<br />

identified using a magnifier; "fine" grains are invisible to the naked eye and cannot be<br />

identified with a magnifier. The cut-off is about 0.1 millimetres, between sand size and silt<br />

size.<br />

Hardness has three values: "hard" rock scratches glass, which usually signifies the minerals<br />

quartz or feldspar (Mohs hardness 6-7 and up); "soft" rock does not scratch glass but scratches<br />

fingernails (Mohs 3-5); "very soft" rock can be scratched with a fingernail (Mohs 1-2). All<br />

igneous rocks are hard.<br />

1b. Gem stones in history and religion.<br />

Gem stones have been present throughout history. They have always been a symbol of wealth<br />

and high social status, especially during the middle ages and after. For instance diamonds<br />

12


were only to be worn by aristocratic families in Europe; diamonds were the first symbol of<br />

engagement and eternal love. In Asia gem stones were only meant for highly important people<br />

like kings and emperors. Rubies were especially appreciated in India and Jade in China and<br />

Japan.<br />

Long before the middle Ages, during the Egyptian empire, Roman and Greek empires gems<br />

had more of a spiritual character. Amulets made of gemstones were used in religious and<br />

spiritual ceremonies. The Assyrians considered Lapis Lazuli to be sacred. The stone brought<br />

the blue of the sky and the light of the Gods to earth.<br />

In Egypt they often used Carnelian gems, which they called the blood of Isis (the Egyptian<br />

Goddess of nature). The Carnelian amulet was placed at the throat of a corpse during<br />

embalming. It was thought to instill Isis’ protection on their journey through the underworld.<br />

Also were the Egyptians to write the 26 th chapter of their “Book of the dead” on Lapis Lazuli,<br />

which was used for religious carvings. One should always hold and rub the Lapis Lazuli with<br />

one hand while reading that particular chapter of the book.<br />

Also in the pre- Colombian cultures gems were cherished, emeralds where especially<br />

appreciated by the Muzo Indians, who controlled the emerald mines of what is now known as<br />

Colombia.<br />

Gems are said to posses some metaphysical 5 properties and therefore superstitious believes<br />

surrounded the gems, as people were convinced that wearing amulets made of some of these<br />

gem stones would keep them from being harmed. So the Holy Roman Emperors wore crowns<br />

set with opals, which were thought to protect them and their families.<br />

In Europe amber was worn as protection against witches and warlocks and even ill luck.<br />

Sailors wore amethyst to protect them and take them to safe harbor, as emeralds were thought<br />

to exorcise demons.<br />

In more recent religions like Judaism “Declaration” was a holy diamond with some negative<br />

aspects. If people erred in their worship or private lives, the stone was reputed to turn murky.<br />

This murky changed was a predictor of pestilence and death. If the stone turned red, they<br />

would die by the sword. If the diamond was bright and clear, the Jewish people of Israel knew<br />

they were free from sin and could celebrate each of their religious festivals without fear.<br />

In Christianity the Ruby symbolized the blood of Christ. The emerald denoted peace and<br />

happiness given by God and the diamond was symbolic to fidelity to Christ and God, so the<br />

popularity of wedding rings made of diamonds.<br />

Lapis Lazuli is the color of the Medicine Buddha. The Medicine Buddha is invoked for<br />

physical and Spiritual Healing. Bhaisajya-guru, Lapis Lazuli Radiance Buddha, Master of<br />

Healing, taught the “Four Treatises on Medicine,” which form the basis of the Tibetan healing<br />

arts. His colour is the blue of Lapis Lazuli. The begging bowl in his left hand is made of lapis<br />

and contains the elixir of immortality. His right hand makes the gesture of giving and holds a<br />

branch of myrobalan, the yellow fruit of which is said to cure all illnesses. To invoke healing<br />

power it is sufficient to call the name of Medicine Buddha. With this, if one is not<br />

immediately healed, one can count on improved karma in one’s next lifetime. About Medicine<br />

Buddha, please see pages previous to Index (page 7).<br />

1c. Gem stones in ancient medicine and today’s therapies.<br />

5 Metaphysical means literally, beyond the physical realm, beyond that which we can realize or discover with our five senses. It also means a<br />

branch of philosophy which studies the “being ness” or inherent nature of reality.<br />

Unfortunately little is known about the use of gems in ancient medicine. The only known<br />

complete Materia Medica that it is said to have described over 200 gem stones and their<br />

healing powers is that of Dioscorides 6 , which is mainly a book about herbal medicine, in<br />

which over a 1000 plants are described.<br />

Some brief general information about the use of gems as medicine in ancient times follows.<br />

During cholera plagues in ancient Egypt, slaves that mined malachite were usually unaffected,<br />

since malachite is a basic copper carbonate. Copper helps rheumatism, asthma, and colic. A<br />

powder of Carnelian was though to stop wounds from bleeding<br />

Eastern physicians thought the emerald could cure epilepsy, remove both mental and body<br />

pain, stop vomiting, purge the blood, act as an antidote to poison and bites from wasps, bees,<br />

and scorpions; helped diabetes, was a remedy for jaundice, and treat leprosy when ground<br />

finely and applied as a poultice.<br />

In 500 A.D., Chinese doctors used finely powdered jade in fruit juice for the relief of<br />

heartburn, asthma, and diabetes.<br />

Diamonds were also used as a poison. The stones were ground into powder and put into the<br />

enemy's food and drink. Many prominent people's deaths were attributed to diamond<br />

poisoning.<br />

The use of gem stones today are more energy orientated, this means that the gems are not<br />

usually crushed and prepared as a medicine but they are either worn or placed on to strategic<br />

body parts to enhance harmony of the charkas 7 during the healing sessions and after. This is<br />

believed to stimulate the body’s own healing powers by balancing the chakra energy.<br />

Balancing the chakra energy means balancing the own body’s energy therefore enhancing the<br />

body’s own healing properties. Gem stone therapy can be used either as an independent form<br />

or therapy or as a complement to massage, Reiki 8 or other alternative healing techniques like<br />

Tibetan Gong therapy 9 .<br />

In Ayurvedic medicine triturated gems have been used as remedies and beauty products for<br />

thousands of years. Other methods like wearing so called “astrological jewels” are believed to<br />

have a uniquely powerful way to mitigate and nullify the unfortunate effects of past wrong<br />

actions (negative karma), as described in Bhattacharya’s gem therapy.<br />

1d. Gem stones in homeopathy<br />

6 Dioscorides: Pedianos Dioskourides, also known as Pedanius Dioscorides, probably lived between 40CE and 90CE in the time of the<br />

Roman Emperors Nero and Vespasian. A Cilician Greek, he was born in Anazarbos (now Nazarba, near Tarsus) within the Roman Empire of<br />

the day, and today in Turkey. A learned physician, he practiced medicine as an army doctor, and saw service with the Roman legions in<br />

Greece, Italy, Asia Minor, and Provence in modern-day France.<br />

7 Chakras: In some belief systems, it is believed that the human body has seven energy vortexes located in different areas of the body. These<br />

vortexes are located at the base of the spine, the navel, the solar plexus (diaphragm area), the heart, the throat, the third eye (area between the<br />

eyes, centred on the forehead), and the crown (top of the head). Every chakra has its own properties in the form of emotions or organs in the<br />

body. An unbalance in the chakra can lead to disease in the correspondent organ or emotional/mental state of the person (emotions).<br />

8 Chakra therapy is widely used in India (Ayurveda) and in other eastern therapies like Reiki (Japanese healing technique).<br />

9 Tibetan gong therapy: a form of relaxation therapy in which gongs are played in a certain way.<br />

14


In homeopathy some gems have been proved 10 to be used as remedies. Dr P. Sankaran proved<br />

Diamond in the 1950’s in which the remedy was made of triturated diamond. The first<br />

proving of this gem stone was done by Dr. Fincke in 1879, the proving was conducted by just<br />

holding a large diamond in the prover’s hands.<br />

In 1994 Jeremy Sherr proved the diamond with a remedy made from diamond dust, in Peter<br />

Tumminello’s proving the remedy used was made of diamond immersion, in which the gem is<br />

not crushed but immerged in water and the water is then used to make the homeopathic<br />

remedy. Other gem stones like pearl, amethyst, and Lapis lazuli have been proved and used in<br />

the same way. There have also been meditative provings carried out on gem stones, from<br />

which the acquired information may be a little less acurate, and therefore considered to be less<br />

reliable by most homeopaths.<br />

10 The method used by homeopathic researchers to define the symptom profile of a particular substance. Most provings were done and<br />

recorded in the late 1800's, although in the last ten years many homeopathic researchers have begun proving new substances. Provings are a<br />

very specific type of research and usually follow a standard protocol.<br />

They are carried out in a number of ways depending on the type of homeopath carrying out the trial. This can involve anything from<br />

following Samuel <strong>Hahnemann</strong>’s strict protocol to a person taking the remedy and meditating on the effects.<br />

15


1d. Gem stones in homeopathy - common themes of gems as a collective<br />

Rare, special, beautiful and magic<br />

Stand apart from common substances, are very attractive. They are very hard to find.<br />

Durability, last very long.<br />

They served to heal and to protect from illness and associated with power, natural of psychic<br />

powers.<br />

Transformation and opposite forces<br />

They are product of transformation, appear when lower and common rocks become beautiful<br />

and magical.<br />

Opposing forces: the fire element is very important in all gem stones. Fire changes things in<br />

their basic form. Excess of energy = YANG; a lot of hot energy. It can bring about sudden<br />

changes. The opposite of this is the water element, feminine, sedentary; a breaking down<br />

process. YING: Water – Cold / YANG: Fire – Heat.<br />

Light and darkness:<br />

Light coming out of the darkness: come out of mess of minerals, come from deep places.<br />

Magic is in what they do with light. Gems are translucent.<br />

Irreconcilable forces and transmutation, completely opposite, how can they live together?<br />

Darkness and death VS Light – new awareness – letting of & rebirth<br />

The darkness of imprisonment; shackled by negativity, culture, relationship, situation. The<br />

person lives in the underworld.<br />

The results of a death experience - a journey through Hades (underworld of the psyche).<br />

Leaving something behind, letting go of something to make the change/transformation.<br />

Darkness = old patterns. Light new perspective, new way of looking at things.<br />

Darkness of old crystallized belief systems about self and the potential and light of a new<br />

perspective, new awareness.<br />

Most of gems > Light and < by the darkness.<br />

Go into darkness to find the light.<br />

Related to the journey into darkness<br />

Faith in the process of life, in the whole process: Low self – esteem, low confidence.<br />

Loss of faith is the deepest – deep lost of sense of the self.<br />

Faith in self = SELF – connection to spirit and the divine.<br />

Death of ego and exclusivity - Transition from ego to universal feeling – not exclusive, it is<br />

all connected. It means taking down the big egos.<br />

Result = New life, new self – giving birth and babies. (Signature for renewal after the death).<br />

There may be some greed and money- issues about wealth.<br />

16


Family & structure & relationships<br />

Minerals are elemental compounds in geometric and fixed relationships = Working<br />

relationships, class relationships, political relationships.<br />

Aluminum and Silica (are common in the gems). In the periodic table these are the primary<br />

substances for relationships and their development.<br />

Seamless bonding and integrity of relationships; highly developed in a healthy way.<br />

Relations bring order and structure in someone’s life.<br />

The issues around family alignments are mostly seen in the Amethyst, Golden topaz, Lapis<br />

lazuli, Black opal and Ruby.<br />

Order and perfection<br />

Uniform structure: they look for basics and structure in their lives; the search for the perfect<br />

order. Often perfectionism is an issue: “this is how I am supposed to be”.<br />

Believe systems that we have as human, family, religious.<br />

Animal/instinctual VS enlightened attitude<br />

What you want, deep inside feeling and what you are expected to do. They have a sense of<br />

being a very aware human being; a universal feeling, if you like.<br />

Violence, sexual energy, something like a very fix attitude, f.i racism and the other side is<br />

enlightened attitude about these things.<br />

They can go from one extreme of hate to a complete integrated relationship.<br />

Fever – Obsession – Passion<br />

Fever = obsession, passion, feel very deeply about something, usually something about<br />

themselves. It can eventually be turned around to something about the environment.<br />

They want to achieve something higher. There are high possibilities and leadership.<br />

1e. Common themes of the gem remedies psyche<br />

• Abusive, betrayal, violence and protection.<br />

• Search for beauty and perfection.<br />

• Boundaries and light, energetic boundaries – out of the body (Amethyst and Gold<br />

topaz) or grounded feeling.<br />

• Durability strength and hardness. (When you go through a big or difficult process you<br />

need to be strong).<br />

• Geometry order and structure. They are very structured people and sense of order,<br />

more than ordinary minerals. Geometric images, squares, triangles.<br />

• Heat and pressure (Diamonds and Rubies) in your life, sense of imprisonment and<br />

pressure feeling. Passion.<br />

• Serious and humorous or silly happening, completely letting go. Comic things.<br />

Humorous dreams, desire to play practical jokes on people. Even in very depressive<br />

remedies, black humor kinds. Situation is so heavy that is silly.<br />

• Imagery and symbolism: animals, faeces and toilets, flowers, volcanoes, gods, saints,<br />

masters and holy men, sun and the moon.<br />

• Intellect, memory, focus and concentration. Loss of memory (Diamond) or ability to<br />

focus and concentrate. (Ruby)<br />

17


• Generals relations to the periodic table:<br />

In general gems relate to series 3 and 4 in periodic table.<br />

The Silicum series are relation orientated, family and friends, communication, puberty<br />

and teenage years. Many gems contain Aluminum and Silicon.<br />

The Iron series are work, duty and task orientated, highly perfectionist. Other themes<br />

are routine, order and rules, as well as control. Task and control and being put to the<br />

test. All come out of a transformation process. These metals (Titanium to Cobalt)<br />

often taken up in the gems. Safire (Titanium) Ruby (Chromium) 11<br />

Chapter 2<br />

2. Introduction to Lapis Lazuli<br />

2a. Physical properties of Lapis Lazuli and its chemical composition<br />

Lapis lazuli is a rock composed mainly of the following minerals:<br />

• Lazurite: Sodium Calcium Aluminum Silicate Sulfate Sulfide Chloride<br />

• Hauynite: Sodium Calcium Aluminum Silicate Sulfate<br />

• Sodalite: Sodium Aluminum Silicate Chloride<br />

• Noselite: Na 8(AlSiO4)6SO4?<br />

• Calcite: Calcium Carbonate<br />

• Pyrite: Iron Sulfide<br />

Lapis lazuli is a rock composed of a mixture of several different minerals including lazurite,<br />

huaynite, sodalite, noselite, calcite and pyrite. Diopside, augite, mica and hornblende may<br />

also be present in small amounts.<br />

Lapis lazuli usually occurs in crystalline lime stones as a result of contact metamorphism.<br />

Lapis lazuli is characteristically recognized by its colour. It yields H2S gas (smells of rotten<br />

eggs) when subjected to HCl. The presence of pyrite can distinguish natural lapis lazuli from<br />

many (but not all) of the lapis simulates.<br />

2b. Lapis Lazuli historical information and uses<br />

The name Lapis lazuli comes from the Persian word lazhward meaning blue, in allusion to its<br />

colour. In ancient times, lapis lazuli was known as sapphirus, which is the name that we use<br />

today for the blue corundum variety sapphire.<br />

Lapis lazuli has been highly valued for many thousands of years. The most famous locality<br />

for fine quality lapis lazuli is the same ancient deposit high in the mountains of Afghanistan<br />

where it was originally mined at least 6000 years ago. Lapis lazuli was often made into<br />

jewellery, carvings, amulets and talismans which were believed to have occult powers. It was<br />

19


used by the ancient Egyptians in many religious ceremonies, and was often used as an<br />

inscription stone for various passages from the Book of the Dead, most important being<br />

Chapter 26 th .<br />

Lapis lazuli was one of the stones in the 'Breastplate of Judgement' of Aaron, described in the<br />

Bible (Exodus: xxviii, 15-30). Lapis lazuli was said to dispel melancholy and depression, and<br />

to cure recurring fevers. It was also said to impart ancient knowledge, and the wisdom to use<br />

it.<br />

Up until the nineteenth century, Lapis Lazuli was ground up and mixed with oil to produce<br />

the deep blue-green pigment known as ultramarine which meant literally beyond the sea, as<br />

the Lapis Lazuli was brought from far away by ship. Since 1828, this pigment has been<br />

produced synthetically from a roasted mixture of kaolin clay, sodium sulphate and charcoal.<br />

Lapis Lazuli today is still a very popular lapidary material. It is made into a variety of handcrafted<br />

objects such as carvings, spheres, beads, cabochons and other jewellery items.<br />

Lapis Lazuli is imitated by a number of methods typically involving the use of dyes on a<br />

variety of natural rocks and synthetic materials. Sometimes dyes are used in combination with<br />

the crushing and reconstitution of lower grade Lapis Lazuli.<br />

2c. Lapis Lazuli and its metaphysical properties & healing powers<br />

Lapis lazuli is said to enhance one's awareness, insight and intellect. It is also said to impart<br />

ancient knowledge and wisdom, bringing peacefulness and self-acceptance. It helps people to<br />

rid themselves of influences of past situations that still cause trouble in the present. It liberates<br />

from compromises and restraint. It takes away fears and blockages of the emotional realm and<br />

helps to work through denial.<br />

Lapis Lazuli is said to help cure depression, insomnia, recurring fevers, vision and hearing<br />

problems, and disorders of the throat, lungs and immune system.<br />

It is also associated with self-confidence, truthfulness, openness and inner tranquillity.<br />

The astrological sign corresponding to Lapis Lazuli is the sign of Sagittarius. The qualities of<br />

Sagittarius include: change-loving he governs long-distance travel, matters of the higher mind<br />

(philosophy, religion and the law), cultural pursuits – and having a good time! It is a fire sign,<br />

so Sagittarians are positive, forthright communicators who love travelling – although you do<br />

tend to be restless and hate to take orders.<br />

2d. Links between stone and the trituration proving of Lapis Lazuli<br />

A cutter will make a face when cutting the Lapis Lazuli stone, because as soon as the stone<br />

comes into contact with the cutting wheel, it will emanate a typical, slightly foul smell. Many<br />

of the provers experienced strong and sharp smells during triturations and after, proving list of<br />

symptoms page 29.<br />

Lapis Lazuli was used in Egypt to write a few chapters of “The book of the Dead”. At higher<br />

levels of the triturations there were visions and associations with Egypt as well as death and<br />

the dead, proving list of symptoms page 34.<br />

20


Before it was possible to reproduce the ultramarine colour artificially the paint made of Lapis<br />

was used in many works of art. Many portraits of the Virgin Mary are coloured with this blue,<br />

for instance Raphael’s “Alba Madonna”. During the proving, after taken a few drops of Lapis<br />

Lazuli C40/4 the figure of the Virgin Mary appears in channelling sessions and songs, page<br />

65.<br />

The metaphysical properties of Lapis Lazuli according to gem therapy are associated with<br />

self-confidence, truthfulness, openness and inner tranquillity, as well as helping people to rid<br />

themselves of influences of past situations that still cause trouble in the present. It liberates<br />

from compromises and restraint. All of these things have been strongly experienced by many<br />

of the provers during or after the triturations.<br />

2e. A description of the components of Lapis Lazuli according to the periodic table<br />

The main component of Lapis Lazuli is lazurite (25 to 40 percent). Lazurite 12 is a<br />

feldspathoid 13 silicate mineral composed of sodium, aluminium, silicon, oxygen, sulphur and<br />

chlorine. Because these are the main components of this gem, we can assume that their<br />

properties, as described in the periodic table of Jan Scholten 14 , should be clearly found in the<br />

proving symptoms. If not all, at least some of the elements mentioned, to check this I have<br />

listed some of the themes and properties of these elements, at the end I present a short list of<br />

the themes I think should certainly be found in the trituration proving of Lapis Lazuli.<br />

rd<br />

Chloride (from Chlorum) Aluminum, Silicon, Sulphur all belong to the 3 series or the so<br />

called “Silicium series”.<br />

In this series the main themes are relationships, family, you and the other and the relationship<br />

between these two. Also language, communication, learning and playing, as well as<br />

presentation to the public are all present in this series. The teenage years are the time of life<br />

related to this series, which makes sense since puberty is the time when it is all about learning<br />

from relationships, with parents, friends, the time when we start gaining interest in the<br />

opposite sex and relations become the core of our lives. Also what others think of you and the<br />

image you present is important in those years. Learning and playing to learn in relationships<br />

are part of the formation of human teenagers.<br />

Muriatricums: Chlorum and Natrium Muriatricum<br />

Chlorum: the essence of this remedy is the idea that care and attention is all or nothing. They<br />

are hypersensitive to this. The slightest cause can make them scream and shout that nobody<br />

takes them into consideration. Their feeling is that nobody cares about them. The reality is<br />

that they need so much nurturing that other give up trying to fulfil their demands.<br />

The other side to this are the ones who never ask for any attention. The choice of this people<br />

is to manage them selves and deal with their own things.<br />

12 Lazurite is a popular but generally expensive mineral. Well-formed, deep blue crystals are rare and valuable. It is more commonly found<br />

massive and combined with other minerals into a rock called lapis lazuli. Class: Silicates. Group: both Sodalite and feldspathoids.<br />

13 The feldspathoids are not a typical mineral group like other mineral groups that are related by structure and chemistry. Their relation to<br />

each other is due primarily to their relationship to the feldspar group of minerals. Feldspathoids are low silica igneous minerals that would<br />

have formed feldspars if only more silica (SiO2) were present in the original magma. The aluminum to silicon ratio is nearly 1:1 in most of<br />

the feldspathoids but is closer to 1:3 in most of the feldspars. As would be predicted, feldspathoids are not found in igneous rocks that<br />

contain primary quartz.<br />

14 Jan Scholten “Homeopathy and Minerals”<br />

21


Chlorum is located at Stage 17 of the periodic, according to Luc de Schepper 15 , these elements<br />

have consumed themselves in the process of great, often misplaced activity. These are<br />

consumed with anger, irritability, indifference as well as morose and sad feelings.<br />

In the case of Chlorum this may mean that he has put all the effort on getting the attention he<br />

needs, and exhausting himself by doing so, not achieving his goal, he becomes irritated and<br />

angry as well as suffering from grief.<br />

Nat-m needing people can be very spontaneous and naïve, and initially cheerful. Because they<br />

tend to see things through pink glasses they are prone to big disappointments, giving room for<br />

grief and forgetting all about the happy times. Natriums are located in the first stages when<br />

learning to communicate and relate to others is still an issue, they are not very handy with<br />

relationships, and this usually leads to rejection and isolation after being hurt.<br />

They are alone, lonely, forsaken feeling and still wanting to be alone.<br />

Muriatricum also stands for mother.<br />

Physically we see mainly headaches, great thirst and emaciation. 16<br />

Aluminum<br />

The Stage 3 on the periodic table stands for alternating behaviour because of a struggle. There<br />

is apprehension about the future, a social struggle, difficult fitting in. There are feelings of<br />

guilt (anxiety as if a crime has been committed). They are sensitive to criticism. It is possible<br />

to see improved mental functions as well as confusion.<br />

In Alumina we see confusion of thoughts versus clarity. There is internal hurry and feeling of<br />

being hurried, at times with the sensation that time passes too slowly.<br />

In relations Alumina struggles with domination and a desire to be independent, this result in<br />

alternating behaviour. They can not free themselves from the chains of dependence.<br />

Physically we see general dryness and itch of the skin, problems with gastrointestinal tract,<br />

slow digestion and bloating.<br />

Silicon – Silicate – Silica element<br />

Silicates – which contain the Silica element, are all about family, image and timidity.<br />

Stage 10 of the periodic table, freshly formed ego, still unpolished (meaning that we be<br />

influenced), and narrowed perception of things, they can be quite stubborn. These are people<br />

hardened on the outside, still vulnerable on the inside. They are obstinate in their opinions but<br />

often do not share them to avoid hurting others or being criticised.<br />

They have fixed ideas of delusions. Intolerance of contradiction,<br />

We see varying degrees of haughtiness and egotism.<br />

15 Luc de Schepper “Homeopathy and the Periodic Table” Volume 1<br />

16 All lists physical symptoms from: Frans Vermeulen “Prisma – The Arcana of Materia Medica Iluminated”<br />

22


Physically we see tremendous chilliness, easy perspiration, very thirsty, suppuration,<br />

glandular affections and headaches.<br />

Sulphur<br />

Stage 16 of the periodic table is about the good old memories. It is about the loss of power<br />

and still remembering these times. The more power lost, the more compensation or<br />

acceptance is needed. If adaptation is impossible, life seems worthless, and one might as well<br />

commit suicide.<br />

There is a lack of reality; in order to be convincing about whom they are, still passionate is<br />

body and spirit. They have the delusions about still being in power. Theorizing about<br />

everything, about the power they imagine or remember, the influence wealth, respect, sexual<br />

powers. They act as if they still were in power, especially at home, with family.<br />

They tend to be antisocial, do not ever listen to anybody, they always want to be the centre of<br />

attention or complete outsiders.<br />

Sulphur focuses in religion and philosophy. He is still being great at this, wanting to invent<br />

the something special and being unique at this. Sulphur has clear ideas and is mostly selfsatisfied.<br />

Physically we see burning pains and sensations, many skin symptoms, slow, lazy and always<br />

tired. Sulphur desires sweets and spices.<br />

nd<br />

Oxygen belongs to the “Carbon series” or 2 series<br />

The carbon series are about “Ego”. The individual forming himself; it is about self-worth, Iweakness,<br />

lust and possessions. The age in which these elements of the personality are formed<br />

is childhood.<br />

Oxygen is located at Stage 16 in which decay is the main theme. The possible feeling of<br />

Oxygen at this stage is one of selfishness, being used and abused, feeling the victim,<br />

indignation and debt.<br />

According to Jan Scholten 17 , the issues of Oxygenium are around finding balance between<br />

taking and giving. They are afraid of losing their material things. It can be so extreme that<br />

they become greedy and avaricious. The opposite can be also true, complete indifference<br />

towards material goods.<br />

They feel they are worth it and others need to see this. Because of this, they tend to claim<br />

attention; they feel that they did not get what they deserve. If they do not get this, feel angry<br />

and insulted. If this goes any further, the feeling is that of being abused. They feel others have<br />

taken away a lot; they have lost their possessions or self-esteem. After this there may be an<br />

attitude of being the victim, they complain about everybody and feel they have been done<br />

wrong.<br />

17 Jan Scholten “Homeopathy and the Elements”<br />

23


th<br />

Iron and Calcium belong to the 4 series or the “Iron series”<br />

The main themes in the Iron series are task, work, duty, ability, perfectionism, order and rules,<br />

control, being observed and exams, failure, guilt, crime and being persecuted.<br />

Calcium stands at the second stage where being observed, questioned and evaluated are<br />

important. In Calcium we see especially many fears and anxieties, fear of being observed and<br />

timidity. It is a great deal for them what others think, they are insecure and very sensitive to<br />

criticism.<br />

Physically we see coldness, gland affections, heart problems, stomach problem and thyroid<br />

problems.<br />

Iron stands at eighth stage. At this stage force, struggle, concentration, endurance are some of<br />

the main themes. According to Luc de Schepper, this stage is about the struggle to establish a<br />

balanced ego. These are fighting, battling remedies. Delusion of being at war, alternating<br />

behaviour because of a struggle, apprehension about the future, social struggle, difficult fitting<br />

in. There is anxiety as if a crime had been committed, feelings of guilt. They are very<br />

sensitive to criticism.<br />

Physically we see hammering headaches, vomiting, and diarrhoea and circulation problems.<br />

If we assume that the contents of this gem give part of their characteristic to the remedy made<br />

of Lapis Lazuli we can expect problems related with the following:<br />

a. relationships and problems with these<br />

b. grief/disappointment and introspection<br />

c. need for attention, forsaken feeling<br />

d. instability – alternating states<br />

e. ego problems<br />

f. religion, philosophy, spirituality<br />

g. feeling of being used or abused<br />

h. difficulty with sharing things<br />

i. battling and struggling, possible feelings of guilt<br />

The most prominent physical symptoms that we in these elements are:<br />

j. coldness – heat - circulation<br />

k. skin problems – dryness and itch<br />

l. gland affections<br />

m. headaches<br />

n. thirst<br />

It is though very important to remember that even if Lapis Lazuli is made of these elements,<br />

the combination and the presence of these elements in the stone are unique and therefore<br />

should also be able to produce other unique and specific symptoms for this stone. A more<br />

detail analysis of this can be found throughout the proving data and under the chapter about<br />

“Differential Diagnosis”.<br />

3. The trituration proving of Lapis Lazuli in the Netherlands<br />

3a. The conduction of the trituration<br />

The trituration of Lapis Lazuli was conducted under the lead and supervision of Alize<br />

Timmerman from December 2004 until June 2005 in The Hague, the Netherlands.<br />

The proving was conducted with a group of about 20 provers, 19 women and just 1 man, ages<br />

28 to 58 years. The substance was unknown to all provers up to the fourth trituration except<br />

for the supervisor and the Institute assistants, provers 6, 15 and 18. Prover 3 knew from<br />

intuition what the substance was but did not share it with anyone until it was made public.<br />

The first trituration of the proving was conducted on December 8 th 2004, the second one took<br />

place on January 26 th , the third on February 1 st , the fourth on March 16 th 2005 and the fifth<br />

trituration took place on April 1 st 2005. In May of 2005 some of the provers also took a single<br />

dose of Lapis Lazuli C40/4, see page 61. Not all the provers did all the triturations for<br />

different reasons, the main one seemed to be some sort of fear for what was about to come,<br />

which was not usual in other triturations.<br />

Some of the provers chose to start or finish some of the triturations at home (Prover 1, 2, 3,<br />

16, 17, 19). After every trituration we would have group meetings in which all the<br />

experiences were shared.<br />

The method used in this proving was that of trituration, there are four levels and we take one<br />

hour to triturate each level. This is done like described by <strong>Hahnemann</strong> in his Organon. See<br />

reference 18.<br />

C1 represents the physical level, C2 the mental level, C3 the emotional level, C4 the<br />

individual spiritual level and C5 the collective spiritual level or archetypical level. The<br />

experience teaches us that the symptoms produced at each level are not always just the one<br />

corresponding to that level; it is likely that most provers produced physical symptoms at other<br />

levels, not just at the C1 level. The same applies for instance to symptoms of emotional nature<br />

that can appear at the C1 level. It is also interesting to see that often physical symptoms are<br />

accompanied by emotions.<br />

The goal of such trituration provings it is not only to make your own good quality remedies as<br />

<strong>Hahnemann</strong> encouraged us to us in his Organon 18 , but also to connect directly with the energy<br />

of the substance by engaging in a meditative way of trituration, doing it in a group is said to<br />

enhance the resonance with the substance and with each other, which means that the<br />

symptoms and sensations are experienced more clearly or strongly. It is believed that this way<br />

you enhance the perception of yourself and the environment and that, just like a regular<br />

proving, this kind of practices can bring about healing. In some cases some spectacular<br />

healing processes take place, like some old masters in homeopathy have experienced as well<br />

in the past 19 . The special thing about this method is that you do not stop at the third trituration<br />

or C3, like <strong>Hahnemann</strong> 20 did with the non soluble substances, you go one step further, to the<br />

C4 in which you connect with still unknown spiritual information of the substance. This level<br />

touches the individual plane of spirituality; the C5 brings about a collective experience or as it<br />

is called the archetypical 21 information of a substance. The existence of this “collective<br />

knowledge” as Jung 22 described it, has not only been confirmed by Jeremy Sherr during his<br />

<strong>Hahnemann</strong>ian provings but also by more contemporary provers like one of the pioneers of<br />

the C4- homeopathy Jürgen Becker or Rajan Sankaran himself 23 .<br />

These kind of triturations are usually done in a silent, meditative way, even though in this<br />

case we also took the chance to paint, which was a beautiful experience because in this way<br />

we created a situation in which we could interact with each other under influence of the<br />

substance, giving us a much better inside in the feelings and sensations of this remedy. One of<br />

the most striking things that came up was about territories and boundaries, the feeling that<br />

someone could go over these with no respect awoke a lot of anger and irritation, all of these<br />

elements come back repeatedly in the proving. The “conflict” was mainly going on between<br />

provers 7 and 15, the rest were mostly spectators with an opinion about what was going on.<br />

Proving list of symptoms, pages 30, 35 & 38.<br />

20 Samuel <strong>Hahnemann</strong>“Organon der geneeskunst” Dutch version of the 6 th edition, page 149<br />

21 Archetypical: representing or constituting an original type after which other similar things are patterned; "archetypal patterns"; It also<br />

means subconscious collective information of the human race.( www.answers.com)<br />

22 The collective unconscious is a part of the unconscious mind common to all humans. According to Carl Jung, the collective unconscious<br />

contains archetypes, universal mental predispositions not grounded in experience. (http://skepdic.com/collectiveun.html)<br />

3b. Classification of symptoms in the trituration proving<br />

Disadvantages in this kind of trituration proving affecting the symptom classification<br />

As soon as it was decided that I was going to work on this proving as my graduation work I<br />

read Sherr’s book about the methodology of the provings and I consulted the proving<br />

guidelines of the “European Council of Classical Homeopathy (ECCH)” 24 . I soon realized that<br />

those proving guidelines are written for the so called “<strong>Hahnemann</strong>ian provings” in which a lot<br />

of things are taken in consideration before accepting a prover into a proving.<br />

Unfortunately the set up for this trituration only met a few of the requests on which a proving<br />

is considered reliable. These were that the group had between 10-20 provers, that there were<br />

no pregnant women of lactating women participating and old the provers were older than 18<br />

years and the group was formed with people from different backgrounds and professions, not<br />

all of them being homeopaths or students of homeopathy.<br />

The probably most important requests that are not met are the fact that every one’s medical<br />

history was and is still unknown to me, that a big number of those provers were receiving<br />

homeopathic treatment at the time of the triturations.<br />

It is thus necessary to consider that the methodology of these types of provings is different to<br />

the trituration ones and therefore is it very difficult to classify the symptoms according to the<br />

“official method”.<br />

Sherr gives us a list of guidelines 25 to include symptoms which unfortunately I am afraid I can<br />

not use consistently since it if often unknown whether the symptoms are old, new, cured or<br />

altered. Only a few of the provers mention this in their texts. It is a fact that these provers did<br />

not use the official guidelines for keeping and registering their symptoms, even though a list<br />

of these was mailed beforehand. I would imagine that the reason for this is that these provers<br />

all have families, jobs, studies and even pets to take care of. The symptoms, from which this<br />

information is known, have been classified accordingly.<br />

Another disadvantage in this kind of trituration proving is that often modalities are not<br />

mentioned, because sometimes they are just not visible or are discovered by coincidence.<br />

There is also the fact to be considered that some provers did not know if what they were<br />

experiencing was due to their treatments or circumstances in their lives. The supervisor did<br />

provide some guidance in these matters but since the time was limited not everyone got to be<br />

screened before, during and after the proving.<br />

General advantages that come out of this kind of trituration provings<br />

There is some time and quietness to really go into the substance and experience the<br />

symptoms, this can last for just the trituration times or can be there for days, even weeks.<br />

It gives the prover the chance to know the remedy really well because you get to experience<br />

the deepest insides of it, which can be very helpful for the prescribing practitioner. These<br />

24 http://www.homeopathy-ecch.org/content/view/24/41/<br />

25 Jeremy Sherr, The dynamics and methodology of homeopathic provings, p 70-72<br />

27


experiences can be healing and helpful to everyone willing to experience them and embrace<br />

them fully.<br />

It creates a bond with the group since you are constantly sharing the most intimate<br />

experiences, even those of spiritual or religious character. It can create a sense of togetherness<br />

and sympathy that is not possible when the provers are not in touch with each other, like it is<br />

requested by the official proving guidelines.<br />

3c. Classification of the symptoms<br />

As I have just mentioned above it is very difficult to classify these symptoms according to the<br />

official guidelines. What I have done instead is translate all the symptoms given to me by the<br />

provers. I have included almost all of those symptoms in this work. The reason why I have<br />

done this is because as I started classifying the symptoms I realised that there were hardly any<br />

symptoms showing that were outrageous or seemed to make no sense at all. All the symptoms<br />

I have come across have either a strong resemblance or connection to the general themes of<br />

gem stone remedies as described by Peter Tumminello 26 , or show a strong resemblance to the<br />

components of the gem Lapis Lazuli as described in the previous chapter.<br />

Therefore I have no reason to doubt that the symptoms are genuine and belong to the<br />

substance we were triturating. Another confirmation is the fact that all of the provers<br />

experienced very similar things, sometimes experienced literally the same. Other loose<br />

symptoms experienced by some provers where also included in the list, only time can teach us<br />

whether these are part of the proving or not, as again Sherr states in his book 27<br />

3d. Following order of lists of symptoms<br />

The mental symptoms are the first ones you find in the next pages. The mental/emotional<br />

symptoms have been grouped under main themes. The main themes are chosen according to<br />

the different mental symptoms and are mention with prover number and level of trituration<br />

beside each symptom. The choice not to translate the mental symptoms into rubrics is meant<br />

for keeping the symptoms as intact as possible and easier to understand. Peter Tumminello<br />

also uses this theme method in his book “Twelve Jewels”. The physical symptoms have been<br />

grouped under the corresponding body part and translated into rubrics as seen in the Synthesis<br />

repertory and Frans Vermeulen’s “Concordant Materia Medica”. A list with the proving<br />

dreams has been added right before a brief explanation of the C5-level linking it to the fairy<br />

tale “Sleeping Beauty”. The C5-level has only been summarized with those symptoms that<br />

give a deeper or broader understanding of the remedy. I have not listed again all the other<br />

symptoms that have been widely described in the first for levels of the triturations. For<br />

instance symptoms like ice coldness, violent anger and etcetera. The last information given is<br />

about the symptoms produced after taking a single dose of Lapis Lazuli C40/4, potentized by<br />

the provers themselves on May 11 th 2005.<br />

After that a summary of the proving classified by trituration level as well as a small<br />

summarized text between the mental and physical symptoms has been added. A few sentences<br />

describing the essence of the remedy have also been added to this summary.<br />

3e. Mind Symptoms<br />

MIND – THEMES and related symptoms to the themes<br />

Wild animals & territories – Instinct – Acute Senses – Nature<br />

* Awakened instincts, feeling of being an animal with acute senses, shaper vision and<br />

hearing. Sensation and need to break from human bonds. Freedom of wild animals, no<br />

borders, like in nature*<br />

• A lion – I felt more animal than human. I could not think like a person. I could<br />

experience moistness, the sun on the skin. I tried to rationalize it and it did not work. I<br />

could only see a big gray mass, no shape. I had lost the human sight on things. I<br />

checked twice in the mirror to see if I was really a lion. (11/C1)<br />

• I can smell stronger and vision is sharp. (17/C1)<br />

• I saw wolves walking, there is an interesting conflict going on with the painting,<br />

people talk of having no boundaries and at the same time you come there in the<br />

territory, space and border by arguing about it. In territories there is always a border.<br />

(9/C2)<br />

• People do not belong in cities, but in nature like animals. Animal necessity of breaking<br />

links and bonds. (13/C3)<br />

• Delusions of smell peppermint, camphor, trees, fruit, sweet smells, burned coffee,<br />

fresh soap, gasoline. (1/C3 5/C4, 1/C1, 3/C2, 17/C1, 8/C2)<br />

Alternating moods – Changing states – Contradictions<br />

* Some sort of emotional instability is experienced. Often joy, alternates with either anger or<br />

sadness, sometimes both, also contradictory states*<br />

• Strongly going from anger to the humoristic side of this remedy. (6/C1)<br />

• I feel like a yo-yo; one minute I am happy, the next very sad, melancholic without<br />

reason. I wish death. (7/C1)<br />

• I was feeling good after clearing up the house, in an instant enormous argument with<br />

partner even though I felt love. There was a quick shift in my moods. (16/C1)<br />

• After anger and being goofy, teasing, I keep on singing the song it my head “Let it be<br />

love”. (1/C2)<br />

• Irritation and then laughing. (3/C2)<br />

• The fear and anxiety are gone, now I feel good, relaxed, and happy and free. (3/C2)<br />

• Hyperactivity alternating with dullness. (2/C3)<br />

• Everything feels opposite. I can either take everything or nothing. (8/C3)<br />

• I am either cautious or not at all. (8/C3)<br />

• I feel all these contradictions. Calmness and serenity VS Sadness. Contradictions in<br />

my life, do not know whether I should go right or left. (12/C3)<br />

• Being – not being / Indifference – strong feelings. (2/C4)<br />

• Quiet and relaxed # Chaos and not being able to concentrate. (12/C4)<br />

29


• Depressed # light feeling. (12/C4)<br />

30


Bullying – fights – teenage years – doing forbidden things – feeling of injustice/borders<br />

* There is a feeling of being teased, bullied, not understood, the way things go is unfair.<br />

There is a feeling of someone crossing the line and this leading to anger. Some of the provers<br />

associate this with puberty *<br />

• I see a 4-6 year old, he is doing something that his mother disapproves and he is<br />

laughing about it. I did it and you did not even see it! (3/C1)<br />

• I think of puberty, I know how everything is! (5/C1)<br />

• I get angry with my mother, enormously angry, I yell. She is not reasonable, it is all<br />

unfair. She does not get it! It makes me think of puberty. (7/C1)<br />

• Fights and arguments with teenage sons. (7/C1)<br />

• The feeling of injustice leads to anger. (14/C1)<br />

• I see images of the past, situations in which I was very angry, it all had to do with<br />

crossing the line, the border, the limit. I feel the anger boiling in me. It is violent but I<br />

know where it comes from, I am not clear; I let it happen. (17/C1)<br />

• I have a goofy feeling. I feel goofy, I tease my husband. (1/C2)<br />

• Teasing and suppressed aggression is how I experience the painting issue. Anger<br />

because someone crossed the line. (4/C2)<br />

• Feeling of being bullied, teased with almost physical pain, I observe, wait until they<br />

cross the line, I do not know what I am going to do if they do cross the line, when I<br />

see that does not happen I relax and start to see it differently, I can let go. (7/C2)<br />

• There is something I do not like, do not want to follow the group, I do not want to<br />

resist, but participating is difficult. From resisting, I think of war. (7/C3)<br />

• I want to make noise, fart, I feel childish, 12-13 years old. (17/C3)<br />

Inner dark side – goals<br />

* There is the feeling of being drawn to your own dark side, to the that you would not want to<br />

see, those things that your gladly ignore about yourself. It seems that from ignoring the dark<br />

side the goal in life is not visible*<br />

• Something hard, strong, is drawing me from the inside. Something wants to come out<br />

of me but it cant, something takes me to the inside; I feel almost breathless, almost sad<br />

but calm. I feel as if I was pushed into a big, dark inner side. (10/C3)<br />

• I feel like this trituration is a conversation with my inner self. At some point in the<br />

conversation I understood one half and then got headache on the third eye area,<br />

between eye brows. It is about the things that clash in my life. It all feels very heavy.<br />

(12/C3)<br />

• It feels like there is a protected wholeness, can not get to the essence or the goal. It<br />

feels it is almost there. (13/C3)<br />

Death – cemeteries – ghosts – associations with the elderly and terminal patients<br />

* Death and dying associated with the elderly, terminal patients, and cold places, lean people<br />

and bones, all death symbols. Delusions of seeing dead people, grave and dying. Death seen<br />

as a transformation process*<br />

• I see ghosts in black gowns. (1/C1)<br />

31


• Feeling of a dark energy. (1/C1)<br />

• Feeling as if I was in a horror film, sod off! (1/C1)<br />

• I see a cemetery; it feels like I am digging a grave. (1/C1)<br />

• I see a cemetery (4/C1), cemetery and coldness. (4/C1) (16/C3)<br />

• I feel quiet inside; I quietly look death in the eyes. (4/C1)<br />

• Remedy for old people; terminal patients. Some sort of transformation from one fase<br />

to the other. To help terminal people accept death. (4/C1) (17/C3)<br />

• My dad said: you look terrible, like dead. (4/C1)<br />

• I feel dead, also mentally but it does not scare me, it is not negative. (4/C1)<br />

• Presentiment of death, but it did not bother me. (6/C1).<br />

• I wish death. (7/C1) (17/C3)<br />

• I see old people all over. I think they are lonely. I am afraid of getting old. (7/C1)<br />

• Death – people of the world in a circle, hand in hand, Hallelujah. A huge iron plate,<br />

surrounded by grass crashes all the people, some came crawling out as if nothing had<br />

happened. The feeling is: ok we are going to die, come from down under and go on.<br />

(11/C1)<br />

• I had images of Auschwitz (in snow and cold). (15/C1)<br />

• Transformation. (1/C2)<br />

• Dead feeling. (8/C2)<br />

• Dying from coldness. (hypothermia?) (19/C2)<br />

• I think of my grandma, aunt, uncle, they are all dead. (3/C3)<br />

• I think of death after have seen very big, gigantic trees, mother earth. This remedy<br />

follows BEECH. (3/C3)<br />

• I wonder what I am doing on earth; wish to be on the other side. (3/C3)<br />

• I do not feel depressed and in fact I do not wish death, but I just felt so good on the<br />

other side, on top of the mountain. I was not down here then, I was up there and it felt<br />

good. (3/C3)<br />

• A friend of mine had an operation; he is probably going to die. It touches me<br />

enormously. This means another good-bye. (16/C3)<br />

• The material world is too heavy; I can not get through it. I want to be up there, in the<br />

spiritual world, a world with no thoughts. This life is too much for me. I want to be up<br />

there. (17/C3)<br />

• I feel I need to say good-bye to this world. (17/C3)<br />

• I feel like letting go, do not want to be on earth. I want to go, away from this earth, I<br />

have seen too much already. (1/C4)<br />

• I yearn for music to help me float away from here. (1/C4)<br />

• After a while I feel as if I was gone, I get lighter all the time, thinner as if I was<br />

dissolving. I come back and wonder where I am. I realize I am back, this is my destiny<br />

and it feels heavy. (17/C3) (1/C4)<br />

• I need to do my best to be here, have the feeling that I can “slip away” anytime; after<br />

this enormous grief and need to cry intensely. (1/C4)<br />

• I think of dead people and the way they lived. (5/C4)<br />

• Passing on to the next world through death. (15/C4) (17/C4)<br />

• Sadness, I do not want to die, I want to live. (17/C4)<br />

• Dementia, death, death of my own dad. Lean and bones. (20/C4)<br />

32


Detachment – Indifference – Soberness – Recklessness<br />

* A sense of detachment, indifference, like nothing matters anymore, not caring anymore.<br />

There is a strong feeling of being unmoved by things, no feeling of any kind. Emotional<br />

coldness*<br />

• I leave the house and leave the heaters on. I do not usually do that, learned from my<br />

dad to be cautious but today I just do not care. (3/C1)<br />

• I have been taking distance. I had to get away from it all. I knew things and that was<br />

enough.<br />

• I have been detaching from reality. It is a sober feeling. (9/C1)<br />

• Sober – that you do not get taken over by the feeling or emotion (10/1)<br />

• I could dose the news about the Tsunami very well, could cry when TV on, but I could<br />

go on easily when it was off. (11/C1)<br />

• I feel sober, very manly, a farmer man. (11/C1)<br />

• I felt some sort of soberness. (12/1)<br />

• Seeing the grief around me does not move me, I just perceive it. (17/C1)<br />

• Things go wrong at work, it is very busy but it does not affect me. (1/C2)<br />

• I feel neutral, nothing specific. (3/C2)<br />

• Trance like feeling – neutral feeling – detached from reality – things around appear<br />

vague. (3/C2)<br />

• Neutral feeling about death. (3/C2)<br />

• Emptiness that feels nice. (19/C2) (17/C3) (1/C4) (2/C4)<br />

• Dimmed emotions, untouchable. (19/C2)<br />

• Neutral meditative feeling, trance. (3/C3)<br />

• Do not feel like dressing up, do not care what other think, this feels good to me. (7/C3,<br />

17/C2)<br />

• I feel that I am in a different dimension, I do not relate to others. Cannabis feeling,<br />

every one is theorizing. (18/C3)<br />

• Feeling of distance and death. (2/C4)<br />

• I feel indifferent, detached. (2/C4)<br />

• Neutral feeling, walking on a golden aisle to the other world. (3/C4)<br />

• Deep indifference, it does not do me anything. (17/C4)<br />

• No connection with the environment. I am fine alone. (17/C4)<br />

Different dimensions – wider view (C3/C4)<br />

* In a deeper level the pain of experiencing things as unfair not being understood and others<br />

crossing the line, transforms into the possibility to see things from a wider perspective, a<br />

different point of view. It is about seeing without borders*<br />

• This remedy gives us the energy to see that facts and reality can change real quickly.<br />

People can experience different truths and that is why there is separation and<br />

arguments. People relate to truth and injustice, just like kids feels it is not fair! (15/C3)<br />

• Cruel dreams are not cruel in a different dimension. The time and culture define this.<br />

The cruelty can be normal in another culture of time. Living in different dimensions<br />

produces grief. (18/C3)<br />

33


• Having the feeling of wanting to be up there and not down here. (3/C3) (17/C3)<br />

• I want to go to other dimensions, for this I need to let go. I do not want to be on earth.<br />

(1/C4)<br />

• Feeling of being in the eternal mountain world, on a snowy mountain top, looking<br />

down the world. I have an overview. I am above of the people’s non-sense. Feeling of<br />

eternity. (5/C4)<br />

• Der Untergang. There was no overview; those people were too deep into it. (7/C4)<br />

• I am so far across the borders that I do not even see the earth. It is not fair how people<br />

cheat each other, everyone does it. (13/C4)<br />

Ego – selfishness – a way to deal with your pain (C3/C4)<br />

* Again in a deeper level we find that to have a wider view and being able to see further than<br />

your own perspective you need to let go of your ego. Selfishness seems to be a way to protect<br />

balance your extreme feelings and to help you carry what might be unbearable otherwise*<br />

• I have had quick thoughts about what selfishness really is. A few years ago a patient<br />

died in my practice while doing her follow up. The remedy had done her well, felt<br />

very happy, realized. Back then, when she died I was not sad and I was angry at<br />

myself for not being sad. I was sad for her husband and children but not for her. Later<br />

I understood why I did not feel the sadness. That was a logical time for her to die. We<br />

people have an aversion of situation of others. We have a problem ourselves, sadness<br />

about someone who has died, we only really feel our own sadness but project it into<br />

the death of that person; feelings that you reuse through the others. This stabilizes our<br />

extreme feelings. (15/C3)<br />

• Association of the angry sea with violent waves. Young boys who are disobedient or<br />

even almost hard, seem to have no feelings. This rebellious feeling is where the pain<br />

hides. Young boys have the strength to do it like this. (15/C3)<br />

• I do not want to prove myself, I am ok like this. It is the horrible egos to which I need<br />

to prove myself. (1/C4)<br />

• You can all have the EGO- existence, it is fine by me, and I am gone! I feel sad but<br />

proud. (1/C4)<br />

• As I walk down the golden aisle I ask myself. Did I learn enough? I got the feeling<br />

that this does not touch me, move me. What is the opposite of this? That everything<br />

comes in goes through you. Give and take. Selfishness can be harmful but also<br />

healthy. You do not need to miss anything, what you need will be provided.<br />

• I see a farao, the Queen Nefertiti and a slave, I ask myself, who is privileged? The one<br />

who can forget his ego. In reality it is all the same, you have to walk the golden aisle<br />

by yourself. (3/C4)<br />

34


Egypt<br />

• You lose awareness and overview when you get stuck in your ego. To be able to walk<br />

down the golden aisle, you have to grow. Growing comes from overview, a wider<br />

perspective. (3/C4)<br />

• This remedy is for people who have lost their wide perspective because of their ego,<br />

therefore being unable to see from other perspectives. The opposite is too little ego,<br />

therefore not feeling understood what leads to grief. The solution to this is being able<br />

to see from ALL the perspectives. (3/C4)<br />

• When do we need EGO? It all has to do with boundaries. Boundaries do not exist, but<br />

you can only understand this when you can let go of your ego. (3/C4)<br />

• Why do not we get to know things? Is our ego in the way? (7/C4)<br />

• People are beautiful in the way we try to strive for truth, reaching the BEING state.<br />

(7/C4)<br />

* Egypt associated with death and a passage to the after life. Another way to see the<br />

transformation process*<br />

• Smell of old rags, like from the pyramids. (17/C1)<br />

• I see Egypt, an oasis in the dessert. I see the orange sky and Nefertiti’s head. I have a<br />

neutral feeling. It feels like the passage to the other world. I walk in a golden aisle,<br />

going somewhere but the aisle does not seem to end. (3/C4)<br />

• Dry skin associated with mummies. (17/C4)<br />

• I had something with Egypt. (18/C4)<br />

Excitement – joy – feeling happy<br />

*Feeling of happiness and thankfulness. Feeling understood*<br />

• I get a little pile of this blue stuff in the mortar. It looks very beautiful. I feel excited, I<br />

am curious about the result of this trituration. (3/C1)<br />

• I feel this excitement (in the stomach). Then I feel that my bladder is full and that I<br />

might pee myself from the excitement. (3/C1)<br />

• I see a group of children at some park, playing with a ball. They throw the ball in the<br />

air and then I see the sky. I see the clear, blue sky. I have happy thoughts. (3/C1)<br />

• I feel happy and open, intense conversations. I feel that my conversation partners<br />

understand exactly what I mean. (5/C1)<br />

element of not understanding the cruelties of humanity and being relieved by the<br />

thought of this drug. There is a feeling that there is no solution, just an illusion that<br />

there is. I feel resistance to go into the illusion. If the must not go too deep into the<br />

emotion, the way should be opened to a bigger wholeness but that is an escape,<br />

suppression and so we should not leave the pain and inflicted pain behind to make it<br />

easier!! (15/C3)<br />

around me. (17/C1)<br />

come in. He does not understand what is happening. I go to my room, cry and cry. I<br />

feel ice cold inside and out. I feel that I am doing so much from the bottom of my<br />

heart and he does not see it. He only sees the sharpness of my words. To avoid more<br />

arguing he walks away whistling, this feels like a confirmation that he does not care.<br />

At one I am at this very hysterical state, it feels like a nervous breakdown. I can not<br />

stop weeping, sobbing like crazy. I feel that I destroy relations but I do not understand<br />

how. I have changed. I try hard but he does and says the same as my ex-boyfriend. I<br />

feel desperate. I do something wrong and do not see what, I do not see it. Feelings of<br />

guilt. I think of my mother’s family, the guilt that my grandfather must have felt when<br />

he abandoned 3 daughters and a wife. The hysteria stopped but I am still crying. My<br />

partner and I talk and things go back to normal. Analysis of this: explosion of anger<br />

3h. Dreams of the Lapis Lazuli trituration<br />

DREAMS of the Lapis Lazuli trituration<br />

Prover 3/C1<br />

Dream – night of the trituration day<br />

I dream that I have some sort of tumor in my knees, they are purple and swollen. I can see the<br />

veins in them. Then they fall on the ground and leave these ulcers behind. Once on the<br />

ground, they grow and this enormous bee comes and feeds from them. My father and sister<br />

are standing in the street, I meet them there. My sister tells me then that my mother has cancer<br />

and that she is going to die sometime in November. She knows the exact date. My mother is<br />

standing behind my sister and she looks like she does not know anything. I find that<br />

distressing.<br />

I have dreamt a couple of times that my teeth fell off. Healthy, sound teeth, with no holes but<br />

were thin. It felt like having sea shells in my mouth. In the second dream I had no teeth and<br />

though: I look like sh..! How horrible!<br />

Prover 3/C2<br />

I dream that my teacher has taken over one of my patients. She prescribed some other remedy.<br />

She tells me the story of this other remedy, hoe it is made and where from. It is an animal that<br />

looks a bit like an armadillo. She claims that this remedy is better for the child. She tells me<br />

this seriously but the people around her are laughing, as if they knew that what she is telling is<br />

not right. I feel angry and frustrated; I feel powerlessness and can not believe it. How is this<br />

possible? I can just not believe it. I think that I have deep respect for my teacher and I always<br />

ask you about things. I do that gladly, and this can not be. This is my patient I would have<br />

liked to be asked first, before anyone did anything.<br />

Prover 4/C1<br />

Dreaming of something broken, it is done with the teeth and then spitting it all out. It is like<br />

some soft and bloody stuff.<br />

Prover 5/C1<br />

Dream a lot about every day things like doing the groceries or cleaning.<br />

28 * = new rubrics<br />

56


Prover 5/C4<br />

I saw the church tower of my parents’ village crushing down. My parents live close to the<br />

church, everything was destroyed. I saw my parents’ house from the other side of the street.<br />

There was no much going on, just that everything was destroyed.<br />

Prover 12/C1<br />

I dreamt a lot about everyday things like vacuuming of doing the dishes. In the morning I had<br />

forgotten the dreams and then around 15 pm I remembered some of it.<br />

Prover 16/C1<br />

I dream a lot about my father and the past.<br />

Prover 8/C2<br />

I dream of bees in my room. They sting me. They are in the curtain, they are flying at me.<br />

Some unknown person takes the curtain and shakes them off.<br />

Prover 3/C3<br />

I dream that I am so angry at someone that I can not stop yelling and end up beating up this<br />

person. I have drawn that person violently into a room and start beating her up. The reason for<br />

this is that I feel she crossed the line, disrespected the boundaries. This is a female family<br />

member coming on to my partner. My thoughts about this: you are not touching the most<br />

sacred in my life. After this I feel very sad and cry a lot because my partner is very angry at<br />

me for what I have done. He says to me in the dream: you have made a scene at a family party<br />

and that is not the place to do it! You have no respect for anybody!!<br />

Prover 5/C3<br />

Dreams of strange situations in family, daughter had 3 children in dream instead of one.<br />

Also dreamt that my father in law, at 91 years went off to get something and fell, he ended<br />

standing on his feet one floor lower and walked away. I was surprised he was not injured. I<br />

had not emotions with this, I just watched it.<br />

Prover 18/C3<br />

Cruel dreams. Felt shocked in the dreams.<br />

I dreamt of turtles eating a fish head, association with suppression and cruelty.<br />

Dreams of dancing, a lot of dreams, often.<br />

Prover 18/C4<br />

I dreamt of a snake, 2 days in a row. The snake was very thin, was in my pocket and bite me. I<br />

let it fall, and goes away. Children are walking up the stairs they get bitten but do not feel it.<br />

57


Prover 8/C5<br />

I dream about the war. I and my children are in some attic. Somebody knocks strongly on the<br />

door. And then there is silence. One of my sons climbs on the roof to see what is going on. He<br />

then gets threatened with a gun by a soldier that was on the roof. They tell us that we shall be<br />

picked up in two days. I say good bye to the attic. I look through its round windows, I see a<br />

long and wide ditch full of weed, green plants, and it extends for as long as my eyes can<br />

reach. I get up with a heavy feeling.<br />

58


3i. C5 level – “Sleeping Beauty”<br />

C5 level – the archetypical information of Lapis Lazuli<br />

During the fifth trituration of the remedy the main feelings expressed were:<br />

• Resistance to things – to old things that come back, to what there is to come,<br />

especially negative things like the coldness and cruelty of humanity. (Hitler as<br />

example) (3/C4 7/C5 15/C5)<br />

• Fear that joy will turn around into misery – (3/C4 6/C5 7/C5)<br />

• Feeling that maybe you can not be yourself because of duties and time, responsibility<br />

– wanting to break loose from these - (8/C5 13/C5)<br />

• Feeling of being gone, detached – with “Sleeping beauty” as comparison in this gone<br />

feeling as well as the contradictions in it. (6/C5 15/C5)<br />

• Experiencing the dark side as cruelty and wanting to skip that part. Anger about<br />

having to go through it forcibly. ( 2/C5 15/C5)<br />

• Living in paradox 29 – contradictory emotions – the solution being : believing in<br />

yourself and going above that feeling. (5/C5 7/C5 9/C5 11/C5 15/C5)<br />

Ultimately what seems to be the core of this information is the paradox, having to go through<br />

the darkest of times to see the light and experiencing many contradictions in feelings, deeds,<br />

wishes, just like seen in the previous four triturations.<br />

- It is difficult to get to the light, that is why the darkness feels like isolation to me,<br />

because I can not see it right. (8/C5)<br />

- I am in the darkness and I feel isolated, there is just one beam of light. (8/C5)<br />

There is resistance to go through darkness because it is brought on by someone’s cruelty.<br />

Someone’s cruelty brings on the darkness, a darkness that is so hard to bear that someone has<br />

no choice but to grief intensely and be consumed with anger, like we see in the proving.<br />

Most of the above mention feelings are reflected in the fairy tale “Sleeping Beauty”. In the<br />

next page two pages I explain the links between the proving and the fairy tale. The text used<br />

for this is that of Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch.<br />

29 Paradox (disambiguation).<br />

A paradox is an apparently true statement or group of statements that seems to lead to a contradiction or to a situation that defies intuition.<br />

Typically, the statements in question do not really imply the contradiction, the puzzling result is not really a contradiction, or the premises<br />

themselves are not all really true or cannot all be true together. The recognition of ambiguities, equivocations, and un stated assumptions<br />

underlying known paradoxes has led to significant advances in science, philosophy and mathematics. Wikipedia encyclopedia<br />

Comments about “Sleeping Beauty” in relation to the trituration proving<br />

In the fairy tale there are contradictions in which we see that a family that could wish nothing<br />

else was in grief because they did not have a child (paragraph 2). Another one could be that in<br />

a palace where everything runs around the princess, at the time of the unfortunate event there<br />

is no one around to save her completely from her fate (paragraph 17-23). Instead of dying she<br />

would fall into a deep sleep, which to her father the king, this sounded like “cold comfort at<br />

the best” (paragraph 14). It is interesting to see that this sensation of coldness is seen<br />

throughout the proving as well.<br />

All of these elements we find in the fairy tale “Sleeping Beauty” where as in history, a family<br />

who has and enjoys everything, lives happily in light (paragraph 1) is brought cruelly into<br />

darkness by someone who has issues, in the fairy tale’s case the Fairy Uglyane 31 , who curses<br />

the young Princess Aurora to die by piercing her hand with a spindle; bringing her<br />

unexpectedly from light into darkness for many, many years (Paragraph 11). This reflects the<br />

element of the unexpected that we see in the proving, where there is resistance to go on<br />

because of the fear of misfortune, fear of what it about to come. Once in the darkness you can<br />

not do anything but wait, wait to see the glimpse of light, like Princess Aurora had to wait for<br />

the prince to come by and break the spell. We can all imagine how such state can give us the<br />

feeling of isolation, being by your self in the darkness not being able to get help from anyone.<br />

Another curious link between this fairy tale and the proving is the “sleeping sickness”<br />

(paragraph 31) where everyone sleeps deeply. In the proving we see an extreme feeling of<br />

tiredness with great need for sleep, wanting to go to sleep. This sleep symbolized death, as it<br />

is experienced by the Prince when he first enters the castle to rescue Princess Aurora<br />

(paragraph 40-42).<br />

The other similarity between the tale and the proving is the hunger everyone experiences on<br />

waking up, they all think of food (end paragraph 49 & 50), even the Queen herself who was<br />

first devastated by the events.<br />

The fairy tale shows that at the end, if you do dare to suffer the darkness as it comes, the light<br />

will show itself sooner or later, but even then there will be less joyful events, as these all<br />

belong to life itself and can not be avoided. The Princess and Prince lived happily ever after<br />

but had to see their fathers die of old age (paragraph 42-58).<br />

3j. List of symptoms after one single dose of Lapis Lazuli C40/4<br />

On May 11 th 2005 we potentize the remedy up to C30/4 and then C40/4 by hand according to<br />

the Korsakov method. After this most of the provers take one single dose (one drop) of the<br />

C40/4 remedy. Provers 1, 2 and 12 do not take it, they are afraid of the reaction. Only a few<br />

provers send in their experiences after taking the remedy.<br />

Observations & mentioned reactions at the time<br />

- Provers look young and fresh.<br />

- Accelerated heartbeat – feeling a rush of energy on the chest.<br />

- Feeling that thyroid works faster, feeling of hurry.<br />

- The letters in the paper seem to dance & feeling of hurry.<br />

- There is a lot of humor, people teasing each other.<br />

Mental Symptoms<br />

- Feeling of not being here anymore, having lost yourself (1, 8) 32<br />

- My relationship with this remedy is that of love/hate. It attracts me but I am afraid of<br />

its dark side. (3)<br />

- I feel courageous or coward. I postpone things that I do not like but they keep coming<br />

back. Then I feel that I need to confront them. I feel like a warrior before the battle. (3)<br />

- I wake up singing ‘Let it be´ by the Beatles and need to listen to it many times on<br />

waking – feeling of unity and trust (3)<br />

- I feel moved by provers 3 story with the Beatles, it is about mother Mary. In one of the<br />

sessions with a patient I drew something in an intuitive manner; a dark blue bow<br />

appeared with the contours of mother Mary beside it. It feels like we can now contact<br />

this high and healing entity, please read “Let it be” (8)<br />

- I have the feeling of overview in my life, I feel relaxed, like an old soul, feel the<br />

wisdom, the emotions get quieter. Things are like they are, that is nature! Even if it<br />

means that I shall loose loved ones. I shall miss them but it won’t destroy me. All the<br />

contradictions in my life are clear now. If there is something very beautiful, something<br />

horrible will follow, this is nature’s law; I accept it and embrace it. I have a terrible<br />

need to mother others; I am not a mother so I play mother with my parents and friends.<br />

(13)<br />

- Trying not to make room for those deeper feelings that you would rather suppress (15)<br />

- Strong need to suppress emotions (15)<br />

- Sympathy towards those who suffer (15)<br />

- Anger about trifles, be nice, let it be, function from a higher perspective (15)<br />

- Superficial attitude towards cruel events & emotions that these bring up (15)<br />

Prophecy<br />

- A Hurricane coming to America from China (11) – this was in May 2005, Katrina<br />

stroke the USA in August 2005.<br />

32 Prover 1 did not take the single dose C40/4 but still produced some symptoms<br />

Fever<br />

- Pain in lumbar region, very sudden and violent. The pain extends to abdomen,<br />

wonder if I have one (5)<br />

- Pain in lower back, feeling as if it split in two. Burning pain. After a week I still have<br />

the feeling of a lump or a stone in the lumbar region (8)<br />

- I am walking around the Church’s yard, someone is being followed and shot at, and he<br />

dies. I become afraid and hide behind a small building with a little porch. I am<br />

convinced that I can not be seen. I am afraid the shooter is going to shoot more people.<br />

I feel save and think I am not seen, then someone I know comes by and asks: are you<br />

coming? And then I ask: How do you know I was there? He could see me from the<br />

distance, I had made a mistake (5)<br />

- Someone does not want to believe what I am telling, denies what I did and tells the<br />

story wrong, I feel powerless. When she keeps on denying and pointing at me I bite<br />

her on the finger because I feel powerless. The bite is so hard that I can taste the blood<br />

in the dream. I feel like I want to squeeze her, this does not happen. (5)<br />

- I am giving birth with 3 other women. The contours of the baby could be felt through<br />

my skin. Then I sit straight up and feel the head between my legs. The child looks at<br />

me and I know that it is a boy. (8)<br />

“The Mother Mary”<br />

34 Symbolism<br />

Mosaic by Sano di Pietro Painting “Mother and child” Sano di Pietro 33<br />

The Virgin mother is the prima materia, the matrix, the virgin earth, the bearer of light,<br />

transforming power; she is symbolized by the tree, flowers and fruits.<br />

Virgin goddesses are not necessarily “virgo intacta” but unwed, free. Their chief symbols are<br />

the moon and the serpent. Virgin birth is the union of the divine and the human, heaven and<br />

earth, which results in the birth of God or superior being. It also symbolizes the birth of<br />

intelligence, or the higher faculties in men. The Great Mother, Queen of Heaven, is a virgin<br />

and her son is born of the spirit of the will, or she is born of her own son, symbolizing original<br />

identity.<br />

The Christian Virgin Mary is associated with a number of symbols; all enclosed places such<br />

as the walled garden; sealed fountain, the Ark, the living spring; also with the “living bush”<br />

from the burning bush, a place of divine manifestation; the closed gate and the gate of heaven,<br />

the light cloud, pure and unattached from which blessing falls in spiritual rain; the untilled<br />

soil of Eden; the never extinguished lamp, a bridge leading to heaven, a ladder by which<br />

Christ descended to earth; Star of the sea, and many other attributes.<br />

35<br />

The great Mother’s archetype<br />

The Great Mother, however, can frighten as well as sustain. Nothing is quite as unnerving as<br />

watching the Moon transformed from the nurturing light in the midnight sky into a black disk<br />

cutting away the light of the sun during an eclipse. Mother Earth may sustain the crops, but<br />

Mother Earth can generate terrible forces--earthquakes, floods and volcanic eruptions. Our<br />

primitive psyches enshrine the ecstasy of hunger banished by mother's breast, but we also<br />

harbour dark shadows of her absence, of her inability to make everything better. The Great<br />

Mother not only pours her love out upon the earth, but she also generates an image in our<br />

shadow, smothering, devouring, implacable, and too terrible to contemplate.<br />

This is the mother-love which is one of the most moving and unforgettable memories of our<br />

lives, the mysterious root of all growth and change; the love that means homecoming, shelter,<br />

and the long silence from which everything begins and in which everything ends. Intimately<br />

known and yet strange like Nature, lovingly tender and yet cruel like fate, joyous and untiring<br />

giver of life--mater dolorosa and mute implacable portal that closes upon the dead. Mother is<br />

mother-love, my experience and my secret. Why risk saying too much, too much that is false<br />

and inadequate and beside the point, about that human being who was our mother, the<br />

accidental carrier of that great experience which includes herself and myself and all mankind,<br />

and indeed the whole of created nature, the experience of life whose children we are? The<br />

attempt to say these things has always been made, and probably always will be; but a sensitive<br />

person cannot in all fairness load that enormous burden of meaning, responsibility, duty,<br />

heaven and hell, on to the shoulders of one frail and fallible human being--so deserving of<br />

love, indulgence, understanding, and forgiveness--who was our mother. He knows that the<br />

mother carries for us that inborn image of the mater natura and mater spiritualis, of the<br />

totality of life of which we are a small and helpless part.<br />

Mother Mary and Lapis Lazuli<br />

As seen in the beginning of this work (Chapter 2, 2d) the link between Lapis Lazuli and the<br />

Virgin Mary can not be denied. Most of the paintings of the Mother Mary in history have<br />

been painted with ultramarine blue 37 , made out of Lapis Lazuli.<br />

If we compare the symbolism of the Mother Mary with the proving information we see some<br />

links. The first is her transforming power and the bearer of light. In the trituration proving,<br />

levels C1-C4 we see death as the transformation process. In the higher potentized Lapis Mary<br />

appears as the transformation power. She brings light into darkness, she is the light bearer.<br />

She is often symbolized by the moon – the female principal – appear both in the level 4 of the<br />

trituration (Pr 8, 15, 18). Also symbols like old, big trees are mentioned in the proving, the<br />

rainforest (Pr 3, 4, 8).<br />

There is also a link mentioned between heaven and earth, which are complementary but<br />

opposite, the birth of a superior being or the higher intelligence of mankind. This we can link<br />

to the proving at the higher levels when some of the provers feel a sensation of arising above<br />

all the problems and seeing everything from a higher perspective (see list of mental<br />

symptoms, page 32).<br />

It seems so that Mary is the highest female symbol for the light, reaching the wisdom to<br />

overcome the worst of darkness periods. The spiritual feelings during the proving might be<br />

linked directly to her and not so much to Jesus himself as he is not mentioned at all. The<br />

provers mention bells, sacristy, nature, high mountains and trees, some of these being directly<br />

Mother Mary’s symbols.<br />

It is quite amazing to see that in the proving the song “Let it be” comes up where it literally<br />

mentions Mother Mary as a comfort and source of light. The analysis of the song’s lyrics is<br />

found at the end of the “Let it be” text.<br />

Let it be<br />

The Beatles (Lennon/McCartney)<br />

When I find myself in times of trouble<br />

Mother Mary comes to me<br />

speaking words of wisdom, let it be.<br />

And in my hour of darkness<br />

she is standing right in front of me<br />

speaking words of wisdom, let it be.<br />

Let it be, let it be.<br />

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be. 1<br />

And when the broken hearted people<br />

Living in the world agree,<br />

There will be an answer, let it be.<br />

For though they may be parted there is<br />

Still a chance that they will see<br />

There will be an answer, let it be.<br />

Let it be, let it be. Yeah<br />

There will be an answer, let it be. 2<br />

And when the night is cloudy,<br />

There is still a light that shines on me,<br />

Shine on until tomorrow, let it be.<br />

I wake up to the sound of music<br />

Mother Mary comes to me<br />

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.<br />

Let it be, let it be.<br />

There will be an answer, let it be.<br />

Let it be, let it be,<br />

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be 3<br />

Analysis<br />

Verse 1: In this part of the song it literally says that when things do not go right the source of<br />

light appears, she brings comfort and light in the hour of darkness.<br />

Mother Mary is telling that “letting it be” is the answer to the problem. Letting it be being the<br />

opposite of dwelling and trying to fight things, suppression. Letting things happen, letting<br />

things come as they are. Not fighting, not resisting.<br />

The listener, the son that listens to Mother knows very well that what she is telling is what<br />

needs to be done.<br />

Verse 2: When there is unity in people that have been hurt, this probably meaning to<br />

sympathize with each other instead of blaming or hating others the solution to the darkness<br />

will show itself. This applies even to the ones that have already departed; the dead ones.<br />

67


Verse 3: The message here seems to refer to “cloudy nights” or times when things are not<br />

clear, when you do not know the answer, when you hesitate or experience some dilemmas.<br />

There will still be glimpse of light shining to show you the way, also tomorrow there will be<br />

that light, there is always hope. Music might be a way to let go of thoughts and fears and in<br />

this letting go, you will see the light at the end and find the solution.<br />

Another thing I would like to add to this, is that while looking at the title of the song I realised<br />

that it also symbolizes the kind of dilemma seen in the Lapis Lazuli proving. The person is so<br />

hurt and so damaged that can not let go of things and that creates the illness.<br />

LET ----------------------------- IT ----------------------------------------- BE<br />

Letting (Neutral terrain) being<br />

To be able to just BE, you need to be able to let go; like it is mentioned in many holistic and<br />

naturals healing arts where the mental, emotional and physical state are all related. In<br />

meditation this is a common practice. Thinking of this I found a very interesting text that also<br />

confirms that in Lapis, the incapability to let go of anger, fear and pain can lead to illness.<br />

Letting Go<br />

Simple Tips to Staying in Balance<br />

By Petrene Soames, author of The Essence of Self-Healing 38<br />

An important part of becoming healthy and staying in balance is letting go of tension, stress<br />

and deeply buried or surface negative emotions such as anger, frustration, fear, hurt, pain and<br />

hate. I mentioned these so-called negative emotions because I have not yet found anyone who<br />

was ill or out of balance because he or she was living in or holding onto an abundance of joy<br />

and love. However, people are often ill because of the loss of joy and love from their lives;<br />

some have never known either of these emotions.<br />

Although I always look at each person as a unique individual being, and never apply<br />

generalities to anyone, it is possible to recognize patterns and links between some illnesses<br />

and certain emotions or mix of emotions. For example, lower backache, cancer, rheumatism,<br />

and irritable bowel syndrome are often linked with holding on to anger, pain and fear. I'm not<br />

suggesting that these illnesses are not very real in the body, but that letting go of these<br />

emotions is necessary to initiate and to allow the healing process to move towards completion.<br />

If you are in perfect health and shape you have found ways to let go already or not to hold on<br />

to what you do not need. You let go quite naturally. When you were young and carefree<br />

perhaps you let go of things more easily and never seemed to be ill; you were excited then and<br />

busy exploring life. There is some truth in the idea of not having time to be ill, a philosophy<br />

that works for many people. But as time goes by, letting go is often not so easy or<br />

spontaneous.<br />

Perhaps we simply do not make time for it; we get overloaded. Some people become more<br />

relaxed once again in their older years. They live life from a more relaxed perspective<br />

believing that the smaller events and problems that they used to worry about are no longer<br />

eally important: "Time is running out, might as well make the most of it!" Such sentiments<br />

are played then in their minds.<br />

Sluggishness – heavy feeling in limbs, lack of energy<br />

Summarizing the proving by linking the main themes of mental and the physical level<br />

As I try to make a round circle in the proving information I can say that the Lapis shows us<br />

clearly what it is about. We see different symptoms at each level and these are no more than a<br />

deeper understanding of the same feeling or its possible origins.<br />

There seem to be very strong emotions. These strong emotions are mostly anger and sadness.<br />

The anger is most prominently accompanied by abdomen complaints, like cramping pains.<br />

Also heat in the head and other parts is seen as an expression of this anger. And the sadness<br />

with palpitations of the heart and stitching pains in this area.<br />

There is also a heavy, hard feeling and fear and anxiety of the violence of these experiences.<br />

This reflects physically on the heavy and tired feeling in limbs and general loss of energy.<br />

It seems so that the pain has been so hard and so heavy that to be able to bear it, it has to be<br />

either ignored or suppressed initially. These emotions at this time are old grievances that have<br />

been there for long. The suppressed pain is associated with war, concentration camps, death,<br />

leaving home and saying good-bye to the dearest things. On a deeper level we see<br />

indifference and a wish for death. This indifference or emotionless state is associated with<br />

extreme cold, which is also experienced physically. The coldness brings on associations with<br />

ice bergs, cold Northern countries and even Auschwitz in winter, which has a link with the<br />

pain, loss, cold and emaciation and bones also mentioned during the proving.<br />

This remedy seems to bring up all kinds of old, suppressed dark feelings and brings them into<br />

the light, where one can deal with them and get rid of them for good. This seems to be a form<br />

of “cleaning up”, this is how it is experienced by the provers and it is literally told in this way.<br />

Also literal cleaning sessions have taken place at some prover’s homes.<br />

The anger seems to be related to a feeling of not being heard or understood, a feeling that<br />

someone is crossing the border, it is all going beyond what you can understand and tolerate.<br />

This can lead to introspection later on, as the person feels that there is no point in trying. The<br />

bonds and borders come back in the proving in the form of animal feelings and wanting to<br />

break ties. The ultimate way of breaking ties is death itself, which is also a big theme in this<br />

trituration.<br />

70


The sadness seems to be also a part of feeling lonely and having the feeling not to belong<br />

here, being estranged, having to leave, and say good-bye. The prominent nausea can be<br />

related to the feeling that someone is so bad, so cruel, so beyond the human understanding<br />

that makes one sick. This can be explained better at the C5-level of the trituration. (See 3i)<br />

At a deeper level we see a swift in these feelings. What was death and end, feels like a<br />

transformation process, there is calmness and quietness and a sense of a base, no fear.<br />

The anger and the feeling that the boundaries are being crossed are replaced by understanding<br />

selfishness and ego, and letting go of this for a wider understanding. A whole understanding<br />

that would mean having no borders.<br />

3l. The Essence of Lapis Lazuli<br />

The Essence of Lapis Lazuli according to what is seen through the trituration.<br />

It is not always easy to describe the essence of a substance with a few sentences. At this point<br />

I find it necessary to give a description of the essence as I have learned it through<br />

summarizing this proving. I hope that these words will help you remember the striking<br />

characteristics of Lapis Lazuli making the recognition in practice a bit easier for you and your<br />

colleagues.<br />

The essence of this remedy:<br />

A sudden misfortune brought on by someone’s cruelty or something (fate/mother nature); this<br />

cruelty that goes beyond all human boundaries and understanding causes the deepest of grief<br />

and anger, bringing on a state of almost total darkness; this darkness also being a metaphor for<br />

death. It is so painful that it kills something in you and you resent and blame that person for it,<br />

because it all goes beyond the human understanding. The pain seems to involve mainly family<br />

members, loved ones, the mother, children, losing your loved ones.<br />

These feelings of grief and anger can be so hard to bear that need to be suppressed to the<br />

deepest, maybe also because of a feeling of responsibility towards the human existence, being<br />

able to go on with everyday tasks. In this suppression there is a tendency to act superficially<br />

or focus on unimportant things, not to look at the truth lying underneath. The suppression can<br />

be the cause of instability and therefore alternating states sadness, isolation, and anger.<br />

But why does this happen? I think that it is just part of life. What goes around comes around.<br />

There are times of abundance, when we take things for granted and focus on the trivial things<br />

in life, forgetting what really is essential. A cruel event can bring you to the most essential in<br />

matter of minutes, a survivor of the Katrina who had lost everything material said on TV: this<br />

hurricane has taught me that I can live with nothing. I think that the reaction to this can be<br />

either confronting the pain and going on (if you do not know darkness, can never appreciate<br />

the light) or you get stuck with it get bitter and eventually become cruel yourself.<br />

An example for this would be the life of Jewish people being pretty happy until Hitler decided<br />

to go after them. During Hitler’s time many families were torn, fathers, mothers and children<br />

were separated, tortured, killed. I have always wondered, why Jews? Why them? Maybe it is<br />

just pure coincidence, being at the wrong place at the wrong time but after this remedy’s<br />

proving I thought that maybe it was something they needed because they were heading down<br />

71


the wrong road. It is widely known that Jews have always been wealthy; maybe they were<br />

focussing too much on this and taking things for granted? We will never know..<br />

Also the fairy tale “Sleeping Beauty” shows a similar situation between the Princess’s family<br />

and the fairy Uglyane. Someone’s cruelty that goes beyond human understanding brings on<br />

darkness and death at some unexpected time in your happy life. Here we see how the daughter<br />

is taken away from her parents and put into the darkness.<br />

Rajan Sankaran writes in his book “The Sensation in Homeopathy” 39 that:<br />

• Sensation and action are equal and opposite: actions are equal to what we perceive is<br />

happening to us.<br />

• The opposite is equally true of what is said: sensitivity, we mention the things that are<br />

issues to us and therefore means we are sensitive to these.<br />

• There is no one or nothing out there other than myself: we only perceive that what we<br />

are sensitive to; other things we may not perceive at all.<br />

If all of these are true we can assume that Lapis Lazuli does not only have a sensation of<br />

being the victim of cruelty but also is cruel to others or would want to be cruel to others.<br />

“I do not have or feel warmth, nurture, love, so I shall make sure that nobody else around me<br />

does”.<br />

The sensitivity of Lapis lies within the issues of cruelty (towards oneself and family), getting<br />

warmth/love and nurture. The reaction to these sensations could be active, passive or<br />

compensated. In the active reaction we would see someone being cruel to others; the passive<br />

would be compassion and the compensation could be constant fighting against cruelty. In the<br />

trituration proving itself we see suppressed aggression (cruelty), some sort of sympathy and<br />

the feeling of something being unfair and feeling the need to quarrel about it. These<br />

symptoms confirm Sankaran’s theory.<br />

4d. Summary of the proving by Anne Schadde<br />

• Consolidation and disintegration:<br />

Symptoms of consolidation appear, like metal plate in the head, petrification, swelling<br />

of indurated lymph nodes and the matching dream about a lump in the breast. One<br />

prover dreamed that the substance was granite.<br />

There is also deep sadness leading to feelings of disintegration which showed itself in<br />

physical symptoms as joint is as if disintegrated, sensation of disintegration of the<br />

back and in delusions of transparency.<br />

• Lightness & heaviness:<br />

A sensation of heaviness appears repeatedly as in now I will petrify completely, the<br />

Colossus of Rhodes. It comes in constant fatigue, exhaustion, weakness. On the other<br />

hand the discrepancy between internal lightness and external heaviness and tiredness<br />

becomes apparent. It could be said that there is something tender, subtle versus<br />

rigidity, sluggishness, as well as slowness and lack of concentration, versus being<br />

rushed and nervous.<br />

• Womanliness, motherhood, pregnancy:<br />

Two provers express the sensation as if they were pregnant. The great mother, being<br />

pregnant, breast feeding, mother milk play a role in dreams as well, so does the above<br />

mentioned dream of the lump in the breast.<br />

• Religion:<br />

42 Anne Schadde “ Listening to Stone, Wood and Shell” p. 55-58<br />

81


We find religious symbolism in dreams about altars, paintings of saints, trip to Buddha<br />

and also about witches and heathen rituals for the great mother.<br />

• Order:<br />

Three different provers mentioned order and as a contrast clumsiness as an important<br />

theme. In the big picture it is of importance that the remedy brought up the things that<br />

were out of order: malfunctions of the car appeared, weaknesses in the organism<br />

surface.<br />

• Water and dryness:<br />

The water is mentioned as part of the synchronicity: the matching dreams about<br />

Noah’s Ark and animal Polonaise, as a contrast: dryness of the skin, lips, mouth, dry<br />

cough, coryza with running discharge, but also congestion of the nose.<br />

• Heat and cold:<br />

Sensation of heat combined with abundant perspiration in the face, cheeks, forehead,<br />

ears and the entire body, as well as dryness of the skin increased; also but less<br />

sensitivity to cold and sensations of coldness.<br />

• Disease pictures:<br />

Numbness, stiffness and trembling of the hands, arms as well as staggering gait,<br />

sagging in the knees when trying to walk, also the dream about shuffling gait 43 .<br />

Pain in limbs and rheumatic complaints.<br />

Four provers noticed heart disorders, including the sensation of cardiac arrest.<br />

Three different provers noticed various symptoms of vertigo and sounds in the ears.<br />

This included whistling high frequency sounds twice.<br />

Bleeding from the anus and bloody stool, nose bleeding complaints regarding the head<br />

as if vessels were rupturing.<br />

4e. The comments by provers and supervisors (before the substance was revealed):<br />

Prover 1<br />

I experience a strong discrepancy between inside and outside, between physical and<br />

mental/emotional.<br />

Aversion to talk, but also enjoyment in meeting and exchanging with others.<br />

I respond more sensitively to critics; I feel treated unfairly. But I also experience a lack of<br />

sensitivity and emotion, I am indifferent and observing.<br />

There was a non-specific longing and later the feeling of change and sometime euphoria.<br />

Physically I became more and more immobile: hip, knee, thumb (not being able to tackle<br />

something) with weight gain.<br />

I thought now I will petrify completely, I became more and more apathetic. I felt like the<br />

Colossus of Rhodes.<br />

There was a feeling that something was going to change, as if it was about to happen; certain<br />

clairvoyance, prophetic dreams, more sensitive in regards to myself and others.<br />

Prover 3<br />

Desire to retreat, I cleaned out the practice, cleaned the house. I spent one sleepless night<br />

because of the fire in the oven was not supposed to be out, that was very important to me.<br />

Followed by a dream:<br />

43 Ataxic gait -- Awkward, uncoordinated walking (http://teachmefinance.com/Scientific_Terms/ataxic_gait.html)<br />

82


Dream about the mountain of Ararat (where Noah’s ark landed). I am riding in a train, sharing<br />

a compartment with my family, there is an announcement: the weather forecast calls for<br />

strong winds on the way to Westland (?), please dress warm.<br />

I think to myself that such wind does not penetrate the walls of a train. I feel a breeze going<br />

through me in the dark. I can not see my children and my husband in the dark I apparently<br />

brought the wrong wardrobe for the trip. In the morning through the trees of a big forest I can<br />

see a mighty gigantic white mountain. It is the Ararat, how magnificent; I had no idea that this<br />

is where this trip brings us. It is way more beautiful than I had even imagined. The mountain<br />

is covered with pure snow. I cried out of happiness.<br />

Association: wind – flood- feeling the ark.<br />

She reported sudden moments of deep sadness “not even crying helps this state”, it is as if<br />

everything disintegrated.<br />

She cut her hair during the active phase of the remedy “as if cutting the umbilical cord”. Her<br />

periods of sadness improved after that. Physically she felt clearly better after cutting her hair.<br />

“I desire clarity and being grounded”.<br />

Supervisor of prover 3:<br />

“Everything prepares for something new. She has to create order”.<br />

Prover 4<br />

The radiator of our car explodes on Sunday after receiving the remedy. It turns out later that<br />

this was due to a defect in the construction of the radiator. The car is 12 years old and drove<br />

just fine, in spite of the defect.<br />

One week later, on another Sunday, I ran into a roadside ditch: the car was totalled. Nobody<br />

was injured.<br />

On another Sunday a waiter poured water over my shirt.<br />

Prover 8<br />

The remedy brings me closer to my true being, reliable and friendly on the other side,<br />

physically and mentally rigid on the other.<br />

It confronted me with my own rigid side. Listless and sluggish, rigid, no interest in<br />

cooperation.<br />

The remedy also inspires something very deep, genuine, tender and subtle inside of me, the<br />

dimensions of which I can only imagine, because defence, blockage and not-wanting to see<br />

dominate me.<br />

Prover 9<br />

I had a lot of technical problems in my house: can’t install the software, the phone does not<br />

work; I am cut off from the world.<br />

One night the toilet was running, I was not able to turn off the water. I had to ask a friend for<br />

help the same night, because I could not handle the rushing sound of the water.<br />

Prover 13<br />

I was clumsy, dropped the globules all over the desk; poured water of files. I was trembling<br />

like an old woman. Many incidents involving water: it rained during the entire vacation. The<br />

bad on top of the car got wet and all homeopathy books got soaked.<br />

4f. The immersion proving of Lapis Lazuli by Peter Tumminello<br />

The substance used: High quality stone in its natural unpolished state.<br />

Method: Immersion. The gem is immersed in distilled water and left it exposed to sun and<br />

moon for 24 hours before drawing off the water and mixing it with 50:50 with 90% alcohol,<br />

which is the mother tincture. The potencies were made out of this tincture.<br />

Potencies used 30K, C30, 200K & 10MM, as well as meditation.<br />

Provings:<br />

• Experiment A: group proving. 13 June 1997. Single blind. Meditation/<strong>Hahnemann</strong>ian.<br />

• Experiment B: Group proving, 22 June 1997. Single blind. Meditation/<strong>Hahnemann</strong>ian.<br />

• Experiment C: Independent provers. 2 provers, 3 separate experiments.<br />

Total of provers: 11 (5 women and 6 men)<br />

Negative Seed Essence<br />

Fruitless digging and the search for meaning<br />

• Being stuck in the small picture and wanting to get to the bigger one. Finding the<br />

meaning of life, meaningful things to do, instead of being stuck with “Mundane, daily<br />

things, price of food I had bought, things to clean at home, things to organise. This<br />

was frustrating to me, as I wanted to move on to bigger more meaningful things” This<br />

situation causes anger; anger at being constrained, being disconnected and having to<br />

lead a mundane existence, frustrated at life’s trivialities.<br />

• Anxious about things that have nothing to do with the cause (of the disease), she<br />

focuses on all her little aches and pains, these become major issues, she is unable to let<br />

go and she cannot transcend them.<br />

No mirrors, no mirrors<br />

• She is not willing to look at herself; it would be unbearable because she would see the<br />

truth, the reality that she does not really have a life, just a token gesture for vibrancy,<br />

joy and living.<br />

Negative keywords<br />

Alone; Barren; Blinded by action; Cold Mother; Digging holes; Disconnected; Driven; Empty<br />

and desolate; Field in the; Fixed Focus; Fruitless digging; Fruitless searching; Grey sky;<br />

Locked in her own individuality; Lost; Mothered; Mundane; No mirrors; Nurtured not;<br />

Searching for meaning; Self-critical; Superficial and Trivial; Uncared for; Unprotected.<br />

The underlying cause: Embrace of the Mother, care and nurturing of the child.<br />

The fundamental problem is in the relationship between mother and child. It is an outstanding<br />

medicine for those who have not received the love they needed from their mother or for a<br />

mother who does not know how to give that love.<br />

It is common in the personal history that love has not been expressed: affection, kisses, hugs,<br />

loving support or that zealous protection that a natural mother affords her child in the threat of<br />

danger.<br />

Indicated in situations where carers were absent of unaware of the child’s needs. They will<br />

say that their mother was cold and distant, of that they were robbed of nurture.<br />

The lack of mothering, caring and nurturing generates an inability to see and to embrace the<br />

whole. The positive dimension of this perspective is that of a caring mother who looks after<br />

all the needs of her children and family, like Jung states in his book “The Four archetypes”,<br />

see page 56-57, the giver of all in abundance, like mother earth.<br />

Positive seed essence<br />

• The resolution of this state is realizing that there is a bigger picture, that she can let go<br />

of the small things and detail to concentrate on seeing things from a higher perspective<br />

and not just focus on the problem at hand. There is a program that had to be removed;<br />

the program that the little things were the issues. She realises that she has chosen the<br />

painful, hard path, and that she always soldiered through. On letting this program go,<br />

she can see her way through, let go of remorse and punishment, and be understanding<br />

and compassionate to herself.<br />

• Ultimately it is a move to embrace herself, to mother herself, to nurture herself and<br />

love herself. With this come love, nurturing, abundance and the ability to give birth to<br />

her real self.<br />

The field and the sky.. Earth to the heavens<br />

• The central issue in Lapis Lazuli often appears around the idea of the field. This word<br />

was used prominently in the proving and in cured cases. On one hand a person who is<br />

searching, digging in a defined place in the field. The field here means a place where<br />

you find a natural resource. This place is limited, a place of finite possibilities. Here<br />

she is only finding bareness. The other side of this is the sky, a place with a full aerial<br />

view, unlimited with unlimited possibilities. It envelopes everything. Lapis allows a<br />

sense of expansiveness and freedom, in terms of perspective, understanding, beauty<br />

and love.<br />

Positive keywords<br />

Being; not searching; Big picture, sees; Blue sky; Communication intimate and meaningful;<br />

Compassionate with herself; Embraced, feels; Embraces, self; Embrace, the whole; Higher<br />

perspective; Loves, self; Mothering, self; Nurtures, self; Protected; Skyward, moving; Soft on<br />

self; Understanding.<br />

4g. Key mental themes<br />

The amusement park<br />

• It is as if he lives in an amusement park. He, his family & friends are all engaging in<br />

rides of pleasure and thrill. The world of materialism and the senses. Life is nothing<br />

but the seeking of material excitements, a superficial existence. When he realises this<br />

is empty and there is nothing there spurs his search for real connection,<br />

communication, love and nurturing. He needs to see the big picture, to let go of the old<br />

programs and travel beyond the superficial amusements of life to find a sense of<br />

meaning.<br />

Communication, freedom of expression and connectedness<br />

• Implicit to the search for meaning in Lapis is connection to others. It can be with<br />

partner, family or friends. Lapis may feel that the communication with others is<br />

ineffective, mundane or focused on the trivial or superficial. His relationships have<br />

descended into offensive nuances, the persistent chatter of superficialities, swearing or<br />

persistent arguments. There is a great desire to communicate on an intimate level, to<br />

exchange, understand, feel and experience that joy of togetherness.<br />

• Lapis enables people to communicate and express their feelings and activates the<br />

throat charka. It may help autism and shy introverted individuals. It is excellent for<br />

personal articulation and the expression of buried emotions.<br />

Grieving over death of the mother<br />

• For people, especially women who are still mourning over the death of someone in the<br />

family long after the natural time. Mediterranean women who dress in black forever<br />

after such a death. These women have been totally focused on the trivial aspects of<br />

home and being a housewife. Having identified so deeply with their role of nurturer<br />

they are unable to receive nurture themselves. Their lives have become dead, empty<br />

and purposeless. In the loss of a loved one their whole world is lost and they<br />

themselves become as if dead and empty.<br />

• The very process of being a mother seems to naturally invoke an eternity of loving,<br />

caring and protection that has the power to transcend death.<br />

4h. Psyche<br />

Animals & colours<br />

• Many animals appear in meditations and dreams. The most prominent being the<br />

African Savannah animals. The characteristics of this are a profusion of wildlife.<br />

• Colours: go hand in hand with the profusion of life. Deep aqua, jade, deep blue, deep<br />

purple; red, yellow, gold and black. Primary colours being red, yellow and blue.<br />

Intellect<br />

• It stimulates mental clarity and the ancients recommended it in dementia.<br />

86


Mundane things and the mother<br />

• There is much investment in the mundane things of life; they often become the whole<br />

focus, preventing perception of a bigger picture and the meaningful things in life.<br />

There can also be a frustration with these mundane things.<br />

Character and dress<br />

• Women in black and are in permanent mourning.<br />

• Men who are coarse, ignorant and mouth off offensively.<br />

• Refugees who are coming home.<br />

4i. Spiritual themes<br />

Embracing the whole Earth<br />

• On the spiritual plane Lapis stimulates a movement from the small picture of our small<br />

human existence to the big picture of connectedness with everyone and everything, a<br />

sense of unity and universal loving.<br />

• Lapis calls for nurturing and healing for all persons, beings and things on earth. It is a<br />

true movement to the bigger picture in which everyone is included in the loving acts<br />

and a healing poultice of motherly love is wrapped around the Earth.<br />

Hanuman, the monkey god<br />

• The monkey god of India appeared in the proving. He was a great warrior and inertly<br />

he was profoundly devoted to loving nature. Although a monkey and a warrior he is<br />

renowned for this gentlemanly manners, his etiquette, his great sensitivity and<br />

kindness even to foes. Sensitivity to the pain of others and at all times his motive was<br />

deep devotion to Rama, the Divine King of ancient India. The quality of this kindness,<br />

sensitivity and undying love link him to the love of the mother.<br />

• Hanuman was the incarnation of strength, vitality and virility. In a cure case it was<br />

commented “my issue is about protection and strength, I had given my parents role to<br />

protect me”.<br />

Throat charka<br />

• Throat charka focuses on communication and has action on the voice and thyroid<br />

gland. Additionally cleaning the emotions through this charka is clearly indicated.<br />

5b. Conclusion from comparing Schadde – Timmerman.<br />

Anne Schadde did triturate the remedy up to C3 to potentize it to a C30, which was the<br />

potency used for the proving. As explained before, in the trituration proving the substance is<br />

triturated up to a C5-level (2 hours longer than a C3). These triturations are the main<br />

information source for the trituration proving. So basically the preparation of the remedy in<br />

the beginning of both provings is the same, the substance needs to be grinded or triturated in<br />

order to be able to potentize it further. The reason for this is that the stone in its ungrounded<br />

form would never dissolve in water and its healing powers would never come apparent 46 .<br />

In Schadde’s proving there are a lot more modalities mentioned in the physical symptoms.<br />

This can be due to a more thorough follow up of the provers and their symptoms. In<br />

<strong>Hahnemann</strong>ian provers a supervisor is assigned to every prover or every two provers 47 . The<br />

meaning for this is not to miss any information, like modalities and observations and to make<br />

symptoms as complete as possible. So the loss of information is most probable in the<br />

trituration proving, since there was no supervisor assigned to each prover. Provers were<br />

basically writing down the symptoms their own and sharing them afterwards in the group<br />

meetings. Often, if people are not reminded of something unusual remains ignored or is just<br />

forgotten, this is the disadvantage of such trituration provings but it could be avoided by<br />

assigning supervisor/s to a small group of provers, this of course takes more time and effort to<br />

be put into the whole process and sometimes that is not possible due to people’s everyday<br />

responsibilities.<br />

In Schadde’s proving though there is a lack of C4 level awareness, the possible real cause<br />

behind the symptoms remains unfolded. There is no mention of cruelty possibly being behind<br />

the anger, nor lack of warmth and nurture from the mother. Prover 8 does mention the feeling<br />

of other dimensions that he can not reach because of the “not wanting to see” attitude. In the<br />

trituration proving this is expressed as superficial way to dealing with things, ignoring or<br />

suppressing them.<br />

There is also no C5 level or archetypical information in which the archetype of the mother is<br />

mentioned, only the physical aspect of the mother is expressed in the form of “Delusion being<br />

pregnant”, which peculiar enough is absent in the trituration provings, since no prover<br />

expressed that particular feeling or association.<br />

Most of symptoms are otherwise the same or similar, just expressed in other words by the<br />

provers and there are other symptoms that are completely absent in either one of the provings,<br />

this can have to do with the provers susceptibility 48 or the fact that there has been some<br />

information lost. It can also be due to the provers groups, Schadde used 12 provers for the<br />

proving, in the trituration proving there were 20 provers 49 . In this case it does not seem to have<br />

anything to do with the method the remedy is prepared by, as it is almost the same. The<br />

grinded stone is in the remedy either way.<br />

93


Very important is to recognize that the symptoms mentioned from the trituration of Lapis<br />

Lazuli for Schadde’s proving were basically the same as the ones experienced by the provers<br />

in The Hague. Some examples of these symptoms are 50 :<br />

- Sensation of awareness and clarity.<br />

- Sensation of meditative calm and relaxation.<br />

- Gazing into empty space.<br />

- Slow oncoming sadness, melancholy with the sensation of constriction in the chest, as<br />

if something was weighting on the chest. She has to take deep breaths; it feels<br />

burdensome, which makes her sad.<br />

- Cardiac irregularity.<br />

- Burning of the eyes.<br />

- Pressure on ears.<br />

- Stabbing in left ear.<br />

- Pleasantly cool sensation on the body’s surface.<br />

The conclusion to this would be that the substances give away the same kind of information if<br />

prepared the same or similar way and that the slight alteration or differences in symptoms can<br />

be mostly due to susceptibility of the provers and loss of information. It seems to be true<br />

though that as claimed by the C4-practicing homeopaths 51 , triturating the substance up to C4<br />

and C5 level does add extra information that mostly remains unveiled in a regular proving. It<br />

may be possible to gain this kind of information by other methods, like meditation. Peter<br />

Tumminello is known for adding meditation provings to his <strong>Hahnemann</strong>ian provings.<br />

5d. Conclusion from comparing Tumminello – Timmerman.<br />

At first sight it seems quite obvious that the differences between Tumminello’s proving (from<br />

Immersion) and the one in The Hague are a lot more prominent than between Schadde’s<br />

proving and Timmerman’s. In this case we need to take into consideration that the method of<br />

preparation of the remedy is different. Tumminello did not choose to grind or triturate the<br />

stone but made a “Bach- remedy” out of it (see beginning page 83). This might be the reason<br />

why most of the symptoms seem to be different. There are some similarities as you can see in<br />

the tables above but the differences (in Italic) are much more prominent.<br />

The peculiarity about the Australian proving is that besides taking the remedy, there were<br />

meditation sessions upon the substance, which in this case, delivered the spiritual or aetiology<br />

of the pathology in this remedy that we can not find in Schadde’s proving. In Tumminello’s<br />

proving the essence of the remedy is given as:<br />

“It is about someone that focuses on small, trivial, superficial things and therefore can not<br />

see the big picture, the purpose of his life and the abundance of natural love & nurturing<br />

available around him. It seems then easier to avoid the pain by not wanting to see and<br />

focussing on a superficial existence that ultimately will lead to melancholy and isolation, and<br />

not being able to find the way to the bigger picture, the light or spirituality”. According to<br />

Tumminello’s proving the cause of this is a lack of love and or nurturing by the own mother<br />

in childhood.<br />

Tumminello’s conclusion about the essence of the remedy comes closer to the C4-C5<br />

information of Timmerman’s trituration in which the archetypical figure of the Mother<br />

appears in the form of mother Mary, the one who brings light in time of darkness.<br />

Throughout the trituration proving we see indeed some sort of superficial way of<br />

communicating with others, blaming others, not wanting to see yourself and therefore<br />

suppressing emotions. In the trituration proving there seems to be an unbearable grief and<br />

darkness that is brought on by life’s cruelty, in which eventually the love and nurturing of the<br />

mother (Mary) will bring on the solution and relief. But it does not directly link this grief to<br />

the death of the mother and it does not literally tell that is due to a lack of love and nurturing<br />

although we could conclude that the pain and grief, the death and darkness are there when the<br />

mother is not, and they disappear when she comes back.<br />

52 Frans Vermeulen “Prisma” Arcana of Materia Medica Illuminated p. 967<br />

96


So the conclusion to this comparison would be that in this case the way in which the remedy<br />

is prepared does alter the outcome of the symptoms, at least partially, there are different and<br />

new symptoms added to the remedy’s picture. It seems to be so that this method is more<br />

effective in revealing spiritual information than a regular <strong>Hahnemann</strong>ian proving, even<br />

though this could be due to the meditation techniques added to this proving and not only due<br />

to the susceptibility of the provers.<br />

Chapter 6<br />

Differential Diagnoses 53<br />

Going back to my comments on 2e (page 24) about the issues to be expected in Lapis Lazuli<br />

according to its components proved out to be pretty close. In the provings we have indeed<br />

seen problems with relating to others; grief & introspection, need for attention and forsaken<br />

feeling, ego problems, religion, spirituality, difficulty with sharing things (deep emotions).<br />

The feelings of being used or abused and the battling and struggling seem to be a bit less<br />

prominent; these are more Ferrum issues which are also found in Lapis Lazuli in small<br />

amounts. What we do see is the fighting (quarrelsome), battling, concentration problems and<br />

haemorrhages from nose and anus (Schadde 4b page 72).<br />

On the physical level we see among other symptoms and sensations coldness and heat,<br />

dryness, gland affections, headaches, thirst, and haemorrhages, most of these themes were<br />

already expected (2e page 24).<br />

Therefore we could conclude that the components in a substance bring out similar or the same<br />

symptoms as they would by themselves. Example: substances containing alumina would bring<br />

out dryness, which is a prominent feature in the remedy Alumina.<br />

Since Lapis has a lot of symptoms in common with Alumina, Silica, Calcium Carbonicum,<br />

Sulphur, Natrium Muriatricum, etc I am just going to list the differences that are worth<br />

mentioned for being completely different or opposite, I also mention a general list of<br />

similarities. All the information about detailed similarities can be found in any good Materia<br />

6b. Minerals/Metals – remarkable differences & common traits.<br />

Alumina – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Alumina has dryness of mucus membranes & skin plus a tendency to faulty motoric<br />

paralysis with coordination problems. In Lapis Lazuli we see motion problems that<br />

have to do with rheumatic or arthritic processes. (Unable to stretch out legs & pain-<br />

Prover 16/C3). No coordination problems.<br />

- Confusion of identity is absent in Lapis Lazuli: Lapis wonders more about the goals<br />

and purpose of life (Provers 10, 12, 13 C3).<br />

- Alumina – no heat or violent sensations and symptoms, has only lack of heat.<br />

- Eyes – Alumina dryness, Lapis lachrymation (Prover 2 C1)<br />

- Menses – scanty, in Lapis profuse (Prover 7 C4).<br />

Alumina: dryness, lack of concentration, confusion, being hurried, gastrointestinal problems.<br />

Silica – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Silica has a prominent lack of confidence and is very sensitive and yielding. In Lapis<br />

we see more of an indifference to others, communication problems and not yielding,<br />

rigid attitudes and quarrelling (3, 7, 17 C1).<br />

- Menses too early and scanty. Lapis profuse with swelling of breasts (Prover 7 C4).<br />

- Slow, chronic processes, no violent symptoms.<br />

Silica: Neurasthenic symptoms and increased irritability of the nervous system & strengthen<br />

reflexes. Abscesses (see also Tumminello’s proving of Lapis under Skin & Generals page 87)<br />

& lymphatic symptoms (throat, tonsils).<br />

Calcium Carbonicum – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Calcium does not want to be seen by others, Lapis does not want to see himself.<br />

- Again, slow processes in Calcium, especially lymphatic, rather violent symptoms in<br />

Lapis (Prover 1, 7, 11, 17, C1/C3).<br />

- Profuse perspiration of Calcium, Lapis a lot more dryness (of skin, mucus membranes,<br />

stool).<br />

- Calcium can not bear cruelty and it affects him a lot. Lapis experiences more of<br />

soberness and indifference (1, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12, 17 C1-C4)<br />

Calcium Carbonicum: Gland affections, skin and bones. Issues with food & eating. Ice<br />

coldness, to the bones.<br />

Sulphur – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Sulphur seems to be untidy; Lapis wants order & cleanness around him.<br />

- Sulphur is < Bathing, Lapis wants to wash off (Prover 1/C1 16/C1).<br />

- < Warmth, Lapis > warmth of sun.<br />

Sulphur: heat, congestion, burning & redness. Lack of reality. Do not listen to anybody, want<br />

to be the centre of attention. Desires sweets.<br />

100


Natrium Muriatricum – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- This remedy is the most similar to Lapis. It is hard to find any remarkable differences.<br />

- Periodicity of Nat-m is not (yet) seen in Lapis.<br />

- Nat-m is worse 9-11 am. Lapis seems to be worse at night (cold, sleeplessness & pain<br />

– Schadde)<br />

Natrium Muriatricum: Depression, forsaken feeling, withdrawal & suppressed grief, easily<br />

hurt, headaches, dryness. Bitterness about what has been done to him.<br />

Muriatricums – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Feeling of pity & unfairness<br />

- Self pity from a need to be nurtured and cared for.<br />

- Problems with the mother, mother figure.<br />

- Want of attention & lost hope of getting it.<br />

- Themes of water & the sea (Schadde).<br />

Arsenic – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Fear of death of Arsenic is not present in Lapis. Death seems like a rather appealing<br />

option (Aurum) (4, 3, 6, 7, 17 C1-C3).<br />

- Arsenic’s drinks often but small sips. Lapis drinks a couple of glasses of water after<br />

each other (1, 17/C1)<br />

- Arsenic > company. Lapis aversion to company.<br />

Arsenic: Restlessness, anxiety, fear, obsession for tidiness & weariness, lack of heat. Burning<br />

pains. Quarrelsome, materialistic and cruel. Terminal patients.<br />

Aurum – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Aurum, also suicidal from pains, Lapis more sadness.<br />

- Aurum, workaholic, industrious but with ambition and strong sense of responsibility.<br />

Lapis does not seem to have that kind of ambition, does not need to be at the top.<br />

Lapis indifference to work, can not concentrate there (1, 16)<br />

- Aurum > Cold bathing.<br />

- Putrid taste in mouth, Lapis, bitter (3), sweetish (5) & metallic (Schadde)<br />

Aurum: Depressed, melancholic mood (everything black inside, life has no value). Suicidal.<br />

Mental exertion. Reserved & alone; no friends, just a few superficial contacts. Heaviness.<br />

Congestion in various organs.<br />

Mercury – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Mercury is sensitive to temperatures, to cold. Lapis ice coldness to the bones.<br />

- Mercury skin, almost constantly moist, (persistent dryness of skin contraindicates<br />

Mercury), Lapis dry skin, shrivelled, like a mummy (17).<br />

- Mercury, profuse salivation during sleep. Lapis dryness of mucus membranes & also<br />

mouth (11, 20).<br />

101


Mercury: Memory weakened and loss of will power. Weary of life. Time passes slowly.<br />

Extremely closed. Quarrelsome complaining of relations and surroundings. Indifference to<br />

everything. Cruelty, mischief. Dreams of water & floods, trembling in limbs (Schadde).<br />

Ferrum – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- A lot more similarities than differences. Anger in Lapis seems to be more prominent &<br />

violent.<br />

- Ferrum does not seem to be suicidal, loathing of life or any of these symptoms. Lapis<br />

does (1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 15, 17).<br />

Ferrum: Irritability. Desire solitude. Alternation of moods. Circulation problems. Headaches.<br />

Argentum Nitricum – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Arg-n: can not hide his feelings. Lapis can not hide his anger, though he tries.<br />

- Arg-n: desires sweets & < sweets. Lapis does not < from sweets.<br />

Argentum Nitricum: Anticipation, hurry, anxiety when time is set. Brain fag, weakness of<br />

memory. Distension, flatulence in abdomen.<br />

Causticum – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Caust has a lot more sympathy and issues with the group. Lapis has more tendency to<br />

isolation.<br />

- Caust paralysis due to damage in nervous system & then muscles. Lapis’s pathology<br />

seems to focus more on rheumatic like complaints (Schadde/16)<br />

- Caust > wet weather, > sips of cold water. Aversion to sweets. Lapis does not seem to<br />

have these modalities, has a strong desire for sweets. (7, 8)<br />

Causticum: Anxious forebodings, can not stand injustice & sensitive to authority. Chronic<br />

grief. Fanatism & rigidity. Quarrelsome & excitable.<br />

Phosphor Acid – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Ph-ac: mild & yielding disposition. Lapis seems to be more of a rigid or quarrelsome<br />

type (page 38/39).<br />

- Ph-ac: craves fruit & juicy refreshing things mainly.<br />

- Ph-ac: strong debility from loss of fluids. Lapis does not.<br />

Ph-ac: ailments from prolonged grief, disappointed love, homesickness. Apathetic, burn-out<br />

Ranunculaceae: vexed, excited easily, raw nerves, morbidly sensitive, electric shock, irritability, excessive anger with grief,<br />

guilt, shock and annoyed, distress, harassed. Insulted dreams, vexatious. Sharp, stitching stabbing & stinging pain. ACON,<br />

HELL, RAN-B, PULS, CIMIC, STAPH, HYDR, CLEM. In Lapis Lazuli we also see the nervousness, excessive anger and<br />

grief & some stitching pains. The difference would be though that Lapis does have other minerals traits & themes of the<br />

mineral and gem kingdom.<br />

anticipation. Lack of creativity, inspiration. Isolation, resignation, introvert, emptiness. Connection, communication,<br />

opposite, duality, loss of identity. Again we see some common themes here but also big differences between the mineral/gem<br />

world and the plant/trees world. The common theme here would be death, life after death, rheumatism & communication<br />

troubles.<br />

Lycopodium – Lapis Lazuli:<br />

- Lycopodium: fear of responsibility, aversion to marriage, etc. Lapis is family<br />

orientated (Tumminello, Schadde).<br />

APPENDIX A<br />

Lapis Lazuli POEM 54<br />

I have heard that hysterical women say<br />

they are sick of the palette and fiddle-bow.<br />

Of poets that are always gay,<br />

For everybody knows or else should know<br />

That if nothing drastic is done<br />

Aeroplane and Zeppelin will come out.<br />

Pitch like King Billy bomb-balls in<br />

until the town laid beaten flat.<br />

All perform their tragic play,<br />

There struts Hamlet, there is Lear,<br />

That's Ophelia, that Cordelia;<br />

Yet they, should the last scene be there,<br />

The great stage curtain about to drop,<br />

If worthy their prominent part in the play,<br />

Do not break up their lines to weep.<br />

They know that Hamlet and Lear are gay;<br />

Gaiety transfiguring all that dread.<br />

All men have aimed at, found and lost;<br />

Black out; Heaven blazing into the head:<br />

Tragedy wrought to its uttermost.<br />

Though Hamlet rambles and Lear rages,<br />

And all the drop-scenes drop at once<br />

Upon a hundred thousand stages,<br />

It cannot grow by an inch or an ounce.<br />

On their own feet they came, or On shipboard,'<br />

Camel-back; horse-back, ass-back, mule-back,<br />

Old civilisations put to the sword.<br />

Then they and their wisdom went to rack:<br />

No handiwork of Callimachus,<br />

Who handled marble as if it were bronze,<br />

Made draperies that seemed to rise<br />

When sea-wind swept the corner, stands;<br />

His long lamp-chimney shaped like the stem<br />

Of a slender palm, stood but a day;<br />

All things fall and are built again,<br />

And those that build them again are gay.<br />

Two Chinamen, behind them a third,<br />

Are carved in lapis lazuli,<br />

Over them flies a long-legged bird,<br />

A symbol of longevity;<br />

The third, doubtless a serving-man,<br />

Carries a musical instrument.<br />

Every discoloration of the stone,<br />

Every accidental crack or dent,<br />

Seems a water-course or an avalanche,<br />

Or lofty slope where it still snows<br />

Though doubtless plum or cherry-branch<br />

Sweetens the little half-way house<br />

Those Chinamen climb towards, and I<br />

Delight to imagine them seated there;<br />

There, on the mountain and the sky,<br />

On all the tragic scene they stare.<br />

One asks for mournful melodies;<br />

Accomplished fingers begin to play.<br />

Their eyes mid many wrinkles, their eyes,<br />

Their ancient, glittering eyes, are gay.<br />

54 William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)<br />

Irish poet, dramatist and prose writer, one of the greatest English-language poets of the 20th century. Yeats received the Nobel Prize for<br />

Literature in 1923.<br />

APPENDIX B<br />

Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch (1863–1944). The Sleeping Beauty and other Fairy Tales 55<br />

“The Sleeping Beauty”<br />

ONCE upon a time there lived a King and a Queen, who lacked but one thing on earth to make them entirely happy. The King was 1<br />

young, handsome, and wealthy; the Queen had a nature as good and gentle as her face was beautiful; and they adored one another,<br />

having married for love—which among kings and queens is not always the rule. Moreover, they reigned over a kingdom at peace, and<br />

their people were devoted to them. What more, then, could they possibly want?<br />

Well, they wanted one thing very badly, and the lack of it grieved them more than words can tell. They had no child. Vows,<br />

2<br />

pilgrimages, all ways were tried; yet for a long while nothing came of it all, and the poor Queen especially was in despair.<br />

At last, however, to her own and her husband’s inexpressible joy, she give birth to a daughter. As soon as the palace guns announced 3<br />

this event, the whole nation went wild with delight. Flags waved everywhere, bells were set pealing until the steeples rocked, crowds<br />

tossed up their hats and cheered, while the soldiers presented arms, and even strangers meeting in the street fell upon each other’s neck,<br />

exclaiming: “Our Queen has a daughter! Yes, yes—Our Queen has a daughter! Long live the little Princess!”<br />

A name had now to be found for the royal babe; and the King and Queen, after talking over some scores of names, at length decided 4<br />

to call her Aurora, which means The Dawn. The Dawn itself (thought they) was never more beautiful than this darling of theirs. The<br />

next business, of course, was to hold a christening. They agreed that it must be a magnificent one; and as a first step they invited all the<br />

Fairies they could find in the land to be godmothers to the Princess Aurora; that each one of them might bring her a gift, as was the<br />

custom with Fairies in those days, and so she might have all the perfections imaginable. After making long inquiries—for I should tell<br />

you that all this happened not so many hundred years ago, when Fairies were already growing somewhat scarce—they found seven.<br />

But this again pleased them, because seven is a lucky number.<br />

After the ceremonies of the christening, while the trumpeters sounded their fanfares and the guns boomed out again from the great 5<br />

tower, all the company returned to the Royal Palace to find a great feast arrayed. Seats of honour had been set for the seven fairy<br />

godmothers, and before each was laid a dish of honour, with a dish-cover of solid gold, and beside the dish a spoon, a knife, and a fork,<br />

all of pure gold and all set with diamonds and rubies. But just as they were seating themselves at the table, to the dismay of every one<br />

there appeared in the door-way an old crone, dressed in black and leaning on a crutched stick. Her chin and her hooked nose almost<br />

met together, like a pair of nut-crackers, for she had very few teeth remaining; but between them she growled to the guests in a terrible<br />

voice:<br />

“I am the Fairy Uglyane! Pray where are your King’s manners, that I have not been invited?” 6<br />

She had in fact been overlooked; and this was not surprising, because she lived at the far end of the country, in a lonely tower set 7<br />

around by the forest. For fifty years she had never come out of this tower and every one believed her to be dead or enchanted. That,<br />

you must know, is the commonest way the Fairies have of ending: they lock themselves up in a tower or within a hollow oak, and are<br />

never seen again.<br />

The King, though she chose to accuse his manners, was in fact the politest of men. He hurried to express his regrets, led her to table 8<br />

with his own hand, and ordered a dish to be set for her; but with the best will in the world he could not give her a dish-cover such as the<br />

others had, because seven only had been made for the seven invited Fairies. The old crone received his excuses very ungraciously,<br />

while accepting a seat. It was plain that she had taken deep offence. One of the younger Fairies, Hippolyta by name, who sat by,<br />

overheard her mumbling threats between her teeth; and fearing she might bestow some unlucky gift upon the little Princess, went as<br />

soon as she rose from table and hid herself close by the cradle, behind the tapestry, that she might have the last word and undo, so far<br />

as she could, what evil the Fairy Uglyane might have in her mind.<br />

She had scarcely concealed herself before the other Fairies began to advance, one by one, to bestow their gifts on the Princess. The 9<br />

youngest promised her that she should be the most beautiful creature in the world; the next, that she should have the wit of an angel;<br />

the third, a marvellous grace in all her ways; the fourth, that she should dance to perfection; the fifth, that she should sing like a<br />

nightingale; the sixth, that she should play exquisitely on all instruments of music.<br />

Now came the turn of the old Fairy Uglyane. Her head nodded with spite and old age together, as she bent over the cradle and shook 10<br />

her crutched staff above the head of the pretty babe, who slept on sweetly, too young and too innocent as yet to dream of any such<br />

thing as mischief in this world.<br />

“This is my gift to you, Princess Aurora,” announced the hag, still in her creaking voice that shook as spitefully as her body. “I 11<br />

promise that one day you shall pierce your hand with a spindle, and on that day you shall surely die!”<br />

At these terrible words the poor Queen fell back fainting into her husband’s arms. A trembling seized the whole Court; the ladies 12<br />

were in tears, and the younger lords and knights were calling out to seize and burn the wicked witch, when the young Fairy stepped<br />

forth from behind the tapestry, and passing by Uglyane, who stood scornful in the midst of this outcry, she thus addressed their<br />

Majesties:—<br />

“Take comfort, O King and Queen: your daughter shall not die thus. It is true, I have not the power wholly to undo what this elder 13<br />

sister of mine has done. The Princess must indeed pierce her hand with a spindle; but, instead of dying, she shall only fall into a deep<br />

slumber that shall last for many, many years, at the end of which a King’s son shall come and awake her. Whenever this misfortune<br />

happens to your little Aurora, do not doubt that I, the Fairy Hippolyta, her godmother, shall get news of it and come at once to render<br />

what help I may.”<br />

The King, while declaring himself infinitely obliged to the good Fairy Hippolyta, could not help feeling that hers was but cold 14<br />

comfort at the best. He gave orders to close the christening festivities at once, although the Fairy Uglyane, their spoil-joy, had already<br />

taken her departure; passing unharmed through the crowd of folk, every one of whom wished her ill, and riding away—it was generally<br />

agreed—upon a broomstick.<br />

To satisfy the King’s faithful subjects, however,—who were unaware of any misadventure—the palace fireworks were duly let off, 15<br />

with a grand set-piece wishing Long Life to the Princess Aurora! in all the colours of the rainbow. But His Majesty, after bowing from<br />

the balcony amid the banging of rockets and hissing of Catherine wheels, retired to a private room with his Chamberlain, and there,<br />

still amid the noise of explosions and cheering, drew up the first harsh proclamation of his reign. It forbade every one, on pain of death,<br />

to use a spindle in spinning or even to have a spindle in his house. Heralds took copies of this proclamation and marched through the<br />

land reading it, to the sound of trumpets from every market-place: and it gravely puzzled and distressed all who listened, for their<br />

55 http://www.bartleby.com/76/1.html.<br />

106


women folk prided themselves on their linen. Its fineness was a byword throughout the neighbouring kingdoms, and they knew<br />

themselves to be famous for it. “But what sort of linen,” said they, “would His Majesty have us spin without spindles?”<br />

They had a great affection, however (as we have seen), for their monarch; and for fifteen or sixteen years all the spinning-wheels 16<br />

were silent throughout the land. The little Princess Aurora grew up without ever having seen one. But one day—the King and Queen<br />

being absent at one of their country houses—she gave her governess the slip, and running at will through the palace and upstairs from<br />

one chamber to another, she came at length to a turret with a winding staircase, from the top of which a strange whirring sound<br />

attracted her and seemed to invite her to climb. As she mounted after the sound, on a sudden it ceased; but still she followed the stairs<br />

and came, at the very top, to an open door through which she looked in upon a small garret where sat an honest old woman alone,<br />

winding her distaff. The good soul had never, in sixteen years, heard of the King’s prohibition against spindles; and this is just the sort<br />

of thing that happens in palaces.<br />

“What are you doing, goody?” asked the Princess. 17<br />

“I am spinning, pretty one,” answered the old woman, who did not know who she was. 18<br />

“Spinning? What is that?” 19<br />

“I wonder sometimes,” said the old woman, “what the world is coming to, in these days!” And that, of course, was natural enough, 20<br />

and might occur to anybody after living so long as she had lived in a garret on the top of a tower. “Spinning,” she said wisely, “is<br />

spinning, or was; and, gentle or simple, no one is fit to keep house until she has learnt to spin.”<br />

“But how pretty it is!” said the Princess. “How do you do it? Give it to me and let me see if I can do so well.” 21<br />

She had no sooner grasped the spindle—she was over-eager perhaps, or just a little bit clumsy, or maybe the fairy decree had so 22<br />

ordained it—than it pierced her hand and she dropped down in a swoon.<br />

The old trot in a flurry ran to the head of the stairs and called for help. There was no bell rope, and, her voice being weak with age 23<br />

and her turret in the remotest corner of the palace, it was long before any one heard her in the servants’ hall. The servants, too—in the<br />

absence of the King and Queen—were playing cards, and could not be interrupted by anybody until their game was finished. Then they<br />

sat down and discussed whose business it was to attend on a call from that particular turret; and this again proved to be a nice point,<br />

since nobody could remember having been summoned thither, and all were against setting up a precedent (as they called it). In the end<br />

they decided to send up the lowest of the junior page-boys. But he had a weakness which he somehow forgot to mention—that of<br />

fainting at the sight of blood. So when he reached the garret and fainted, the old woman had to begin screaming over again.<br />

This time they sent up a scullery maid; who, being good-natured and unused to the ways of the palace, made the best haste she could 24<br />

to the garret, whence presently she returned with the terrible news. The servants, who had gone back to their game, now dropped their<br />

cards and came running. All the household, in fact, came pouring up the turret stairs; the palace physicians themselves crowding in<br />

such numbers that the poor Princess Aurora would have been hard put to it for fresh air could fresh air have restored her. They dashed<br />

water on her face, unlaced her, slapped her hands, tickled the soles of her feet, burned feathers under her nose, rubbed her temples with<br />

Hungary-water. They held consultations over her, by twos and threes, and again in Grand Committee. But nothing would bring her to.<br />

Meanwhile, a messenger had ridden off posthaste with the tidings, and while the doctors were still consulting and shaking their heads 25<br />

the King himself came galloping home to the palace. In the midst of his grief he bethought him of what the Fairies had foretold; and<br />

being persuaded that, since they had said it, this was fated to happen, he blamed no one but gave orders to carry the Princess to the<br />

finest apartment in the palace, and there lay her on a bed embroidered with gold and silver.<br />

At sight of her, she was so lovely, you might well have supposed that some bright being of the skies had floated down to earth and 26<br />

there dropped asleep after her long journey. For her swoon had not taken away the warm tints of her complexion: her cheeks were like<br />

carnations, her lips like coral: and though her eyes were closed and the long lashes would not lift, her soft breathing told that she was<br />

not dead. The King commanded them all to leave her and let her sleep in peace until the hour of her awakening should arrive.<br />

Now when the accident befell our Princess the good Fairy Hippolyta, who had saved her life, happened to be in the Kingdom of 27<br />

Mataquin, twelve thousand leagues away; but news of it was brought to her in an incredibly short space of time by a little dwarf who<br />

owned a pair of seven-league boots. (These were boots in which you could walk seven leagues at a single stride.) She set off at once to<br />

the help of her beloved goddaughter, and behold in an hour this good Fairy arrived at the palace, in a fiery chariot drawn by dragons.<br />

Our King met her and handed her down from the chariot. She approved of all that he had done; but, greatly foreseeing as she was, she 28<br />

bethought her that, as all mortals perish within a hundred years or so, when the time came for the Princess to awake she would be<br />

distressed at finding herself orphaned and alone in this old castle.<br />

So this is what she did. She touched with her wand everything and everybody in the palace: the King, the Queen; the ministers and 29<br />

privy councillors; the archbishop (who was the Grand Almoner), the bishops and the minor clergy; the maids-of-honour, ladies of the<br />

bedchamber, governesses, gentlemen-in-waiting, equerries, heralds, physicians, officers, masters of the household, cooks, scullions,<br />

lackeys, guards, Switzers, pages, footmen. She touched the Princess’s tutors and the Court professors in the midst of their deep studies.<br />

She touched likewise all the horses in the stables, with the grooms; the huge mastiffs in the yard; even Tiny, the Princess’s little pet<br />

dog, and Fluff, her black-and-white cat, that lay coiled on a cushion by her bedside.<br />

The instant the Fairy Hippolyta touched them they all fell asleep, not to awake until the same moment as their mistress, that all might 30<br />

be ready to wait on her when she needed them. The very spits at the fire went to sleep, loaded as they were with partridges and<br />

pheasants; and the fire went to sleep too. All this was done in a moment: the Fairies were never long about their business in those days.<br />

But it so happened that one of the King’s councillors, the Minister of Marine (his office dated from a previous reign when the 31<br />

kingdom had hoped to conquer and acquire a seaboard) had overslept himself that morning and came late to the palace without any<br />

knowledge of what had befallen. He felt no great fear that his unpunctuality would be remarked, the King (as he supposed) being<br />

absent in the country; nevertheless he took the precaution of letting himself in by a small postern door and so missed being observed by<br />

the Fairy and touched by her wand. Entering his office, and perceiving that his under-secretary (usually so brisk) and all his clerks<br />

rested their heads on their desks in attitudes of sleep, he drew the conclusion that something had happened, for he was an excellent<br />

judge of natural slumber. The farther he penetrated into the palace, the stronger his suspicions became. He withdrew on tiptoe. Though<br />

by nature and habit a lazy man, he was capable of sudden decision, and returning to his home he caused notices to be posted up,<br />

forbidding any one to approach the castle, the inmates of which were suffering from an Eastern but temporary affliction known as the<br />

Sleeping Sickness.<br />

These notices were unnecessary, for within a few hours there grew up, all around the park, such a number of trees of all sizes, and 32<br />

such a tangle of briars and undergrowth, that neither beast nor man could find a passage. They grew until nothing but the tops of the<br />

castle towers could be seen, and these only from a good way off. There was no mistake about it: the Fairy had done her work well, and<br />

the Princess might sleep with no fear of visits from the inquisitive.<br />

One day, many, many years afterwards, the incomparable young Prince Florimond happened to ride a-hunting on that side of the 33<br />

country which lay next to the tangled forest, and asked: “What were those towers he saw pushing up above the midst of a great thick<br />

wood?”<br />

They all answered him as they heard tell. Some said it was an old castle haunted by ghosts. 34<br />

Others, that all the wizards and witches of the country met there to keep Sabbath. 35<br />

The most general opinion was that an Ogre dwelt there, and that he carried off thither all the children he could catch, to eat them at 36<br />

107


his ease. No one could follow him, for he alone knew how to find a passage through the briars and brambles. The Prince could not tell<br />

which to believe of all these informants, for all gave their versions with equal confidence, as commonly happens with those who talk<br />

on matters of which they can know nothing for certain. He was turning from one to another in perplexity, when a peasant spoke up and<br />

said:—<br />

“Your Highness, long ago I heard my father tell that there was in yonder castle a Princess, the most beautiful that ever man saw; that<br />

she must lie asleep there for many, many years; and that one day she will be awakened by a King’s son, for whom she was destined.”<br />

At these words Prince Florimond felt himself a-fire. He believed, without weighing it, that he could accomplish this fine adventure;<br />

and spurred on by love and ambition, he resolved to explore then and there and discover the truth for himself.<br />

Leaping down from his horse he started to run towards the wood, and had almost reached the edge of it before the attendant courtiers<br />

guessed his design. They called to him to come back, but he ran on, and was about to fling himself boldly into the undergrowth, when<br />

as by magic all the great trees, the shrubs, the creepers, the ivies, briars and brambles, unlaced themselves of their own accord and<br />

drew aside to let him pass. He found himself within a long glade or avenue, at the end of which glimmered the walls of an old castle;<br />

and towards this he strode. It surprised him somewhat that none of his attendants were following him; the reason being that as soon as<br />

he had passed through it, the undergrowth drew close as ever again. He heard their voices, fainter and fainter behind him, beyond the<br />

barrier, calling, beseeching him, to desist. But he held on his way without one backward look. He was a Prince, and young, and<br />

therefore valiant.<br />

He came to the castle, and pushing aside the ivies that hung like a curtain over the gateway, entered a wide outer court and stood still 40<br />

for a moment, holding his breath, while his eyes travelled over a scene that might well have frozen them with terror. The court was<br />

silent, dreadfully silent; yet it was by no means empty. On all hands lay straight, stiff bodies of men and beasts, seemingly all dead.<br />

Nevertheless, as he continued to gaze, his courage returned; for the pimpled noses and ruddy faces of the Switzers told him that they<br />

were no worse than asleep; and their cups, which yet held a few heeltaps of wine, proved that they had fallen asleep over a drinkingbout.<br />

He stepped by them and passed across a second great court paved with marble; he mounted a broad flight of marble steps leading to 41<br />

the main doorway; he entered a guardroom, just within the doorway, where the guards stood in rank with shouldered muskets, every<br />

man of them asleep and snoring his best. He made his way through a number of rooms filled with ladies and gentlemen, some standing,<br />

others sitting, but all asleep. He drew aside a heavy purple curtain, and once more held his breath; for he was looking into the great<br />

Hall of State where, at a long table, sat and slumbered the King with his Council. The Lord Chancellor slept in the act of dipping pen<br />

into inkpot; the Archbishop in the act of taking snuff; and between the spectacles on the Archbishop’s nose and the spectacles on the<br />

Lord Chancellor’s a spider had spun a beautiful web.<br />

Prince Florimond tiptoed very carefully past these august sleepers and, leaving the hall by another door, came to the foot of the grand 42<br />

staircase. Up this, too, he went; wandered along a corridor to his right, and, stopping by hazard at one of the many doors, opened it and<br />

looked into a bath-room lined with mirrors and having in its midst, sunk in the floor, a huge round basin of whitest porcelain wherein a<br />

spring of water bubbled deliciously. Three steps led down to the bath, and at the head of them stood a couch, with towels, and courtsuit<br />

laid ready, exquisitely embroidered and complete to the daintiest of lace ruffles and the most delicate of body linen.<br />

Then the Prince bethought him that he had ridden far before ever coming to the wood; and the mirrors told him that he was also 43<br />

somewhat travel-stained from his passage through it. So, having by this time learnt to accept any new wonder without question, he<br />

undressed himself and took a bath, which he thoroughly enjoyed. Nor was he altogether astonished, when he tried on the clothes, to<br />

find that they fitted him perfectly. Even the rosetted shoes of satin might have been made to his measure.<br />

Having arrayed himself thus hardily, he resumed his quest along the corridor. The very next door he tried opened on a chamber all 44<br />

panelled with white and gold; and there, on a bed the curtains of which were drawn wide, he beheld the loveliest vision he had ever<br />

seen: a Princess, seemingly about seventeen or eighteen years old, and of a beauty so brilliant that he could not have believed this<br />

world held the like.<br />

But she lay still, so still … Prince Florimond drew near, trembling and wondering, and sank on his knees beside her. Still she lay, 45<br />

scarcely seeming to breathe, and he bent and touched with his lips the little hand that rested, light as a roseleaf, on the coverlet. …<br />

With that, as the long spell of her enchantment came to an end, the Princess awaked; and looking at him with eyes more tender than a 46<br />

first sight of him might seem to excuse:—<br />

“Is it you, my Prince?” she said. “You have been a long while coming!” 47<br />

The Prince, charmed by these words, and still more by the manner in which they were spoken, knew not how to find words for the 48<br />

bliss in his heart. He assured her that he loved her better than his own self. Their speech after this was not very coherent; they gazed at<br />

one another for longer stretches than they talked; but if eloquence lacked, there was plenty of love. He, to be sure, showed the more<br />

embarrassment; and no need to wonder at this—she had had time to think over what to say to him; for I hold it hot unlikely (though the<br />

story does not say anything of this) that the good Fairy Hippolyta had taken care to amuse her, during her long sleep, with some<br />

pleasurable dreams. In short, the Princess Aurora and the Prince Florimond conversed for four hours, and still without saying the half<br />

they had to say.<br />

Meanwhile all the palace had awaked with the Princess. In the Council Chamber the King opened his eyes and requested the Lord 49<br />

Chancellor to read that last sentence of his over again a little more distinctly. The Lord Chancellor, dipping his quill into the dry<br />

inkpot, asked the Archbishop in a whisper how many t’s there were in “regrettable.” The Archbishop, taking a pinch of snuff that had<br />

long ago turned to dust, answered with a terrific sneeze, which again was drowned by the striking of all the clocks in the palace, as they<br />

started frantically to make up for lost time. Dogs barked, doors banged; the Princess’s parrot screamed in his cage and was answered<br />

by the peacocks squawking from the terrace; amid which hubbub the Minister for Agriculture, forgetting his manners, made a trumpet<br />

of his hands and bawled across the table, begging His Majesty to adjourn for dinner. In short, every one’s first thought was of his own<br />

business; and, as they were not all in love, they were ready to die with hunger.<br />

Even the Queen, who had dropped asleep while discussing with her maids-of-honour the shade of mourning which most properly 50<br />

expressed regret for royal personages in a trance, lost her patience at length, and sent one of her attendants with word that she, for her<br />

part, was keen-set for something to eat, and that in her young days it had been customary for young ladies released from enchantment<br />

to accept the congratulations of their parents without loss of time. The Prince Florimond, by this message recalled to his devoirs,<br />

helped the Princess to rise. She was completely dressed, and very magnificently too.<br />

Taking his beloved Princess Aurora by the hand, he led her to her parents, who embraced her passionately and—their first transports 51<br />

over—turned to welcome him as a son, being charmed (quite apart from their gratitude) by the modest gallantry of his address. They<br />

passed into a great dining-room lined with mirrors, where they supped and were served by the royal attendants. Violins and hautboys<br />

discoursed music that was ancient indeed, but excellent, and the meal was scarcely concluded before the company enjoyed a very<br />

pleasant surprise.<br />

Prince Florimond, having no eyes but for his love, might be excused if he forgot that his attendants must, long before now, have 52<br />

carried home their report, and that his parents would be in deep distress, wondering what had become of him. But the King, the<br />

Princess’s father, had a truly royal habit of remembering details, especially when it concerned setting folks at their ease. Before dinner<br />

he had dispatched a messenger to carry word to Prince Florimond’s father, that his son was safe, and to acquaint him briefly with what<br />

108<br />

37<br />

38<br />

39


had befallen. The messenger, riding through the undergrowth—which now obligingly parted before him as it had, a while ago, to admit<br />

the Prince—and arriving at the out-skirts of the wood, found there a search-party vainly endeavouring to break through the barrier,<br />

with the Prince’s aged father standing by and exhorting them in person, to whom he delivered his message. Trembling with relief—for<br />

he truly supposed his son to be lost beyond recall—the old man entreated the messenger to turn back and escort him. So he arrived, and<br />

was ushered into the hall.<br />

The situation, to be sure, was delicate. But when these two kings, both so well meaning, had met and exchanged courtesies, and the 53<br />

one had raised the other by the hand to a place on the dais beside him, already and without speech they had almost accorded.<br />

“I am an old man,” said the Prince’s father; “I have reigned long enough for my satisfaction, and now care for little in life but to see 54<br />

my son happy.”<br />

“I think I can promise you that,” said the Princess’s father, smiling, with a glance at the two lovers. 55<br />

“I am old enough, at any rate, to have done with ambitions,” said the one. 56<br />

“And I,” said the other, “have dreamed long enough, at any rate, to despise them. What matters ruling to either of us two, while we 57<br />

see your son and my daughter reigning together?”<br />

So it was agreed, then and there; and after supper, without loss of time, the Archbishop married the Prince Florimond and the<br />

Princess Aurora in the chapel of the Castle. The two Kings and the Princess’s mother saw them to their chamber, and the first maid-ofhonour<br />

drew the curtain. They slept little—the Princesshad no occasion; but the Prince next morning led his bride back to the city,<br />

where they were acclaimed by the populace and lived happy ever after, reigning in prosperity and honour.<br />

Ye Maids, to await some while a lover fond,<br />

Rich, titled, debonair as Florimond,<br />

Is reason; and who learns on fate to attend<br />

Goes seldom unrewarded in the end—<br />

“What! No one kiss us for a hundred years!”<br />

There, la-la-la! I understood, my dears.<br />

Further, the story would suggest a doubt<br />

That marriage may be happiest when deferr’d—<br />

“Deferr’d?” you cry—“Deferr’d,” I see you pout,<br />

—We’ll skip this moral, and attempt a third.<br />

Thirdly, our fable then appears to prove<br />

Disparity of years no bar to love.<br />

Crabb’d Age and Youth—But that’s an ancient quarrel,<br />

And I’ll not interfere. There’s no third moral.<br />

Ik kom thuis met enorme honger gevoel, na 1 boterham vol<br />

Ik kan niet direct in slaap vallen, raar meestal doe ik dat wel<br />

Honger snachts<br />

Koud- vooral de benen<br />

Droom:<br />

Ik heb een soort condylomata op mijn knieën, paarsig en gezwollen, ik zie vaten die erin lopen. Daarna vallen ze op de grond en laten ze<br />

gaten (zweren) achter. Op de grond gaan ze groeien en een enorme bij komt en gaat erin om te eten.<br />

Mijn zus en vader staan op straat, ik kom ze tegen. Mijn zus vertelt me dat mijn moeder kanker heeft en dat ze ergens in November dood zal<br />

gaan. Zij weet precies de datum. Mijn moeder staat op eens achter mijn zus en kijkt alsof ze van niets weet. Ik heb het gevoel dat ze van niets<br />

weet. Ik vind dat heel erg.<br />

‘sochtends 9-12-04<br />

Ik ga de deur uit en laat ik de verwarming aan staan. Doe ik nooit. Ik doe altijd alles uit. Van mijn vader overgenomen die gewoonte. Het kan<br />

me niet schelen dat de verwarming aan blijft.<br />

Irritatie omdat het heel druk is op straat. (meestal ook wel maar nu was ik heel snel geïrriteerd)<br />

‘snachts 9-12-04<br />

Wakker van de pijn (ongesteld geworden) dit heb ik altijd. Opvallend is dat bij het leggen van mijn linker hand op de buik, mijn inwendige<br />

organen heel gedetailleerd kan voelen, alsof ik met mijn hand door de huid heen kan. Ik voelde mijn uterus heel goed.<br />

‘sochtends 10-12-04<br />

Ik weet dat ik gedroomd heb maar ik weet niet wat.<br />

Ik voel me koud. Gedoucht met heel warm water, heet. Het brandt mijn huid maar ik vind het lekker. Dit is voor mij heel raar. Nooit eerder<br />

gehad. Ik ben meestal heel warm.<br />

Ik kijk in de spiegel en ik zie er ontzettend rond en gezwollen uit, mijn buik, heupen en benen. Ik vind dat lelijk, vreselijk. Het ziet er uit<br />

alsof de verhouding met de rest van het lichaam niet klopt. Ook nog nooit eerder gehad.<br />

Nog steeds koud. Verwarming aan (20 C) meestal staat ie op (15 C) en ik vind het warm zat.<br />

2 keer gedroomd dat mijn tanden eraf vielen. Gezonde tanden zonder gaatjes maar wel dun. Alsof ik schelpen in mijn mond had. In de<br />

16-12-04<br />

Wakker geworden met keelpijn, stekend links, voelt dik van binnen.<br />

Warm drinken is verschrikkelijk, het steekt enorm. Eten gaat wel.<br />

De eerste 2 weken elke dag misselijk, de hele dag door. Daarna regelmatig als ik wakker wordt.<br />

gevoelens van: alleen zijn, er niet bij horen, apathisch, koppig, extreem zwijgzaam, wantrouwen, totaal terugtrekken, vervreemding, dingen<br />

dringen niet door, ontzettend traag, geen zin in werken en er niet toe kunnen komen.<br />

Het overheersende gevoel het zonder familie te moeten doen, het gevoel afscheid te moeten nemen hierin,<br />

dit gevoel klopt met de werkelijkheid, het is een tijd voor mij van afscheid nemen.<br />

Prover 17<br />

na de trituratie een enorme woede uitbarsting gehad 9-12-2004 19.30<br />

een explosie.<br />

VRESELIJK<br />

mijn familie is zich rot geschrokken<br />

mijn zoon riep dit ben je niet!<br />

vraag me af of ik door wil gaan?<br />

Ruik de hele avond zeeplucht.<br />

Als de stof in mijn vijzel komt verbaasd het mij hoe mooi de kleur blauw is.<br />

Ik ruik eraan om te controleren of de zeeplucht van de stof komt. Dat is niet zo.<br />

Het voelt heel spannend. Een soort opwinding maakt zich van mij meester. We gaan beginnen!<br />

Dan luidt Sjaq de bel en direct komt het gevoel alsof de bel luidt voor de sacristie.<br />

Er komt een soort heilig gevoel over me een gewijd gevoel. Dit ervaar ik als spiritueel en komt openheid vanaf boven, in mij. (begint bij<br />

kruin chakra) (gebeurd soms als ik mediteer, maar niet zo intens zo opeens zo allesomvattend)<br />

Alize begint te praten en het irriteert me. Houd je mond denk ik. Dan sluit ik me ervoor af.<br />

Zie in mijn kom mooie patronen lagen, opgebouwd van beneden naar boven als richels.<br />

De stof blijft hangen.<br />

Dan opent zich mijn linker neusgat. Als of er zuivere zuurstof doorheen komt. Later mijn re ook maar niet zo open als de li.<br />

Ik adem diep en rustig en er komt een diepe rust over me. Mijn borstkas opent zich en vult zicht met zuurstof, lucht.<br />

S 1 Ik zie mooie, blauwgrijze substantie met glans.<br />

W2 Ruik opnieuw de zeeplucht. Het valt me op dat Evelien een roze rood glittertje op d´r wang heeft. Mijn ogen staan wijdt open, neem heel<br />

helder waar. Ik ben me bewust van de omgeving en als ik rondkijk zie ik diep triest, treurig en lijden op een aantal gezichten. Wat mij niet<br />

raakt, ik neem alleen waar.<br />

Ik krijg opeens jeuk ik de kleine ruimte tussen neus en bovenlip. Dan overvalt me ineens een slaperigheid.<br />

S2 Krijg de stof niet los. De inhoud in de kom lijkt veeel kleiner. Dan in een impuls wil ik een hapje nemen, doe het niet. Mijn haren irriteren<br />

en ik denk dat ik snel naar de kapper moet om het af te knippen. Ik krijg dorst en ga naar de keuken. Het water in mijn kopje is vrij warm,<br />

maar als ik mijn vinger in steek is het lauw tot koud.<br />

Ik voel me heel goed, prettig.<br />

Opvallend. Bij het vertellen van mijn verhaal was ik alleen daar mee bezig. Dit is bijzonder meestal ben ik me bewust dat iedereen kijkt ook<br />

dat de camera draait. Na het vertellen was ik me wel bewust dat iedereen keek en voelde ik me heel verlegen.<br />

Volgende dag<br />

In de avond na sporten om 19.30 thuis. Spoedje aan telefoon!<br />

Zoon riep van boven. Maak je het eten klaar. Papa komt zo thuis.<br />

Ik vroeg of hij wilde helpen maar hij liep weer naar zijn kamer. Man kwam thuis. Wat eten we?<br />

Ik explodeerde, extreem!!!!<br />

Ik ging tekeer als een viswijf. Ik kan boos zijn maar zo, nog nooit! Zo explosief! Zo onredelijk. Tijdens schreeuwen herkende ik mijn eigen<br />

stem niet en ik dacht: stop stop. Maar kon niet stoppen.<br />

Later na mijn excuus zei mijn zoon: mam dit ben je niet.<br />

Man zei: je bent je nog nooit zo boos geweest zo hysterisch.<br />

Ik ben erg geschrokken. Was daarna zo mak als een lammetje. Erg in mezelf gekeerd<br />

Wel bewust dat deze heftige reactie van de testing komt.<br />

14-12<br />

Voel me goed en relaxed ondanks veel activiteiten in het weekend. Ik voel me open en toegankelijk.<br />

Patiënten komen niet opdagen vanaf donderdag zonder afbellen . Iedere dag eentje.<br />

Is heel opvallend. Gebeurt zelden. Heel relaxed.<br />

Bewust dat ik de C1 niet af wil maken ivm explosie gevaar.<br />

conflict met mijn dochter.<br />

Nee, gezegd wat een enorme ruzie veroorzaakte.<br />

Daarna intens verdrietig en uren gehuild. Het verdriet van de afgelopen jaren kwam eruit, (Ik huil zelden)<br />

Afmaken C1 27-1-2005<br />

Tijdens de verwrijving komen beelden naar boven over situaties waar ik in het verleden boos over ben geweest. Hebben allemaal te maken<br />

met het overschrijden van mijn grenzen. De woede borrelt in me op vanuit mijn lenden.<br />

Heftig maar ik ben me bewust van de kern van de woede. Ik ben niet duidelijk, ik laat het gebeuren.<br />

Gevoel van dorst.<br />

Ga water drinken 2 glazen vol. Mijn geur is versterkt.<br />

Gloeien, brandend gevoel borststreek<br />

Transpirerende handen (dit heb ik normaal nooit, altijd koude handen)<br />

Als Vanessa over de vlinder vertelt, komt het woord transformatie in mij op.<br />

Ik moet heel sterk denken aan een patiënt uit de stagekliniek die we de vorige dag hebben gezien, die had ook iets met “tijd”, haar naam<br />

komt steeds naar boven.<br />

Thuis heb ik hevige dorst en reageer ik ondeugend, plagen.<br />

Als ik in bed lig blijft er een liedje in mijn hoofd hangen, de tekst die zich herhaalt in mijn hoofd is : “let it be love”.<br />

Ik slaap lekker, voel me “wollig”, warm<br />

De volgende dag 27 januari op weg naar mijn werk zie ik diverse auto’s om mij heen, die allemaal een cijfer 8 (?) in hun kenteken hebben.<br />

Zelf hebben wij ook een auto met het cijfer 8 in het kenteken.<br />

Op het werk is het ontzettend druk, er gaat van alles mis, maar ik voel me er totaal niet verbonden mee. De dagen erna heb ik moeite met<br />

concentreren, voel me afwezig, duf, duurt ongeveer een week.<br />

Jeukend bultje in rechter hand, ziet er uit als een Flea bite. Misschien van insect. In ieder geval bewust ervan geworden tijdens de trituratie.<br />

IJskoud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br />

26 januari 2005 avond na de les<br />

Ik ga naar huis. Ik ben angstig, alsof er iets gaat gebeuren. Iemand gaat dood. Ik geef heel veel om die persoon. Dit had ik al 4/5 dagen.<br />

Gedroomd: Alize heeft een van mijn patiënten overgenomen van Marije. Heeft een andere middel voorgeschreven. Vertelt mij het verhaal<br />

over dit andere middel. Waarvan het wordt gemaakt en hoe. Het gaat om een beest, lijkt op een Armadillo. Een stuk van het beest wordt<br />

gekrust en gepotentieerd. Alize beweert dat dit middel beter is voor het kind. Zij vertelt het serieus maar mensen om haar heen lachen, alsof<br />

ze weten dat wat zij vertelt niet klopt.<br />

Ik ben boos en gefrustreerd, een soort onmacht en ongeloof. Hoe kan dit nou. Ik kan er niet bij met mijn hoofd. Ik denk: Alize: ik heb diep<br />

respect voor jou. Ik vraag je altijd om dingen. Ik overleg graag maar dit kan niet. Dit kind is mijn patiënt en ik had graag overleg met jou<br />

gehad.<br />

Anxiety tijd, een soort angst. Ik haal het niet. Gevoel even snel dit afmaken want ik moet nog dat en dat doen en ik heb te weinig tijd.<br />

27-januari-2005<br />

Ochtend: Koud en heel moe.<br />

Avond:<br />

Enorme woede uitbarsting omdat hij mij vraagt mijn post op te ruimen als ik binnen kom. Wij krijgen ruzie. Hij snapt er niets van, vertelt hij<br />

achteraf.<br />

Ik loop naar mijn kamer. Ik huil en huil.. Ik heb het ijskoud van binnen en buiten. Ik denk en voel : Ik doe zoveel uit de bodem van mijn hart<br />

en jij ziet dat niet. Jij ziet alleen dat scherp ben in mijn woorden, jij ziet de rest niet.<br />

Om geen verdere ruzie te maken loopt hij fluitend weg. Dit voelt voor mij als bevestiging dat hij mij waardeert. In een klap ben ik terug naar<br />

een soort hysterisch nerveus breakdown. Ik kan niet stoppen met huilen, snikken als een gek. Ik voel dat ik mijn relaties kapot maak. Ik snap<br />

niet hoe het kan. Ik ben zo veranderd. Ik doe zo mijn best. Maar hij doet en zegt hetzelfde als mijn huidige vriend. Ik ben wanhopig. Ik doe<br />

iets fouts maar ik zie niet wat. Ik zie het niet, ik zie het niet, ik zie het niet.<br />

Achteraf begrijp ik dat dit een soort schuldgevoel is. Ik denk dan aan de familie van mijn moeder. Het schuldgevoel van mijn opa die zijn<br />

vrouw en 3 dochter in de steek heeft gelaten. De jongste was mijn moeder en was nog geen 3 jaar oud. Ondanks ik niet meer hysterisch ben.<br />

Huil ik gemakkelijk. Mijn vriend het ik praten erover en maken het goed.<br />

Ik snap niets van deze reactie. Ik ben in een klap teruggegaan naar het moment die mij aan de therapie heeft gezet. Jaren lang heb ik eraan<br />

gewerkt en was weg, dealt with.<br />

Volgende dag om niets huilen. Nog steeds het gevoel van Ik maak alles kapot wat mijn dierbaar is omdat ik een negatief deel van mijzelf niet<br />

kan veranderen omdat ik niet zie wat er nou fout aan is!<br />

Dan pijn in de borst, links, alsof ik een klap heb gehad. Blauw plekje. Tepel gezwollen aan een kant. De volgende dagen nog meer pijn. Voelt<br />

als een ballon, gevuld met vocht. Rechter borst gaat ook pijn doen, maar links is erger. Ik hoor binnen 5 dagen (rond 2-2) ongesteld te<br />

worden.<br />

29/01/05<br />

Angst is weg. Borsten nog pijnlijk. Ik voel me goed. Rustig. Best vrolijk en vrij.<br />

C2 trituatie 26 januari 2005<br />

Na binnenkomst zie ik het grote vel papier en de potten verf. Ik voel mij er meteen erg toe aangetrokken. Ik wil eigenlijk niet praten maar zo<br />

gauw mogelijk beginnen aan de C2 om eindelijk verlost te worden. Nog voordat wij beginnen mag/moet ik verven. De kleuren staan vast:<br />

blauw, geel en rood. Ik wil ze het liefst niet door elkaar op het papier brengen. Wil de verf heel dik opdragen. Jammer dat ik niet over meer<br />

technieken beschik. Ben mij niet bewust wat ik doe, maar weet tegelijk dat het zo moet en niet anders. Voel mij daarna heel opgelucht en blij<br />

alsof er iets van mij afgevallen is.<br />

Tijdens de trituratie kijk ik naar de vijzel en heb de indruk dat de stof bijna oplost. Ik kijk naar mijn tekening, er moet meer blauw bij!. Ik ben<br />

117


euforisch als ik aan verven denk. Opgewonden, wil de tekening verfijnen. Ben trots op mijn schilderij. Nu is het opgelost. Tijdens het verven<br />

denk ik aan een vuurbal en aan een meteoriet.<br />

Nu komt er schot in. Ik kan vliegen!!! Zou graag meer verfijning aan willen brengen in het schilderij.<br />

Moet gapen, maar dat past niet bij mijn opgewonden zijn.<br />

Roer haastig, snel.<br />

Wil dat vasthouden. Zie anderen voor zich uit staren, dat wil ik niet. Wil niet remmen / geremd worden.<br />

Ik ben in de tijd.<br />

Alize en Jacqueline gaan door mijn tekening. Voel bijna lichamelijke pijn. Observeer nauwkeurig wat zij doen. Ze willen mij pesten. Ik<br />

probeer rustig te blijven. Bepaal voor mijzelf een grens op het schilderij tot waar zij mogen komen. Hoop intensief dat zij niet over die grens<br />

gaan. Ik weet niet wat ik dan ga doen. Als ik merk dat Alize er niet overheen komt wordt ik innerlijk rustiger. Neem wat meer afstand en<br />

wordt benieuwd naar wat het wordt. Alize weet volgens mij niet, dat blauw en geel groen wordt anders zou zij dat nooit doen. Begin de<br />

humor van wat er gebeurt in te zien. Kan het loslaten.<br />

Tijdens de nabespreking houd ik mij eerst bewust stil. Wat er gebeurde heeft mij erg diep geraakt. Als ik uiteindelijk uitleg, dat zij bijna over<br />

een grens gingen en Alize daarop zegt dat het haar daar helemaal niet om gaat, zij voelt geen grenzen, geen tijd, het is een universum, voel ik<br />

mij erg gekwetst. Ik ervaar het alsof zij haar ervaring- gewaarwording boven de mijne stelt. De hare is beter. Mijn emotionele ervaring is<br />

minder. Sowieso is mijn emotionele reactie niet goed. De interventies van enkele te hulp schietende aanwezigen voelen maar even goed. Ik<br />

moet hier alleen doorheen. Ik herken dit. Het is mijn projectie. Ik breng de normen en waarden erin en de waardering van mijn emotionaliteit<br />

is erg laag.<br />

De volgende dag ontmoet ik kort Alize. Wij praten over wat er is gebeurd. Dat doet erg goed. Nu kan ik vanuit overzichtsniveau ernaar<br />

kijken. Voel mij daarna rustig en blij.<br />

Slaap nu weer normaal.<br />

-Het is lekker om alleen te zijn, bij mijzelf te zijn, met mijn gedachten te zijn. Ik vind het jammer dat de trituratie afgelopen is.<br />

Het was een beetje als een droom – een stroom van gedachte die voorbij ging, gedachten die ik beleefd heb, ik voelde me<br />

afgezonderd -van de groep, van mijzelf.<br />

2-2-05<br />

Ik weet niet hoe ik me voel, een beetje eenzaam, Ik doe dingen om tijd te vullen? Tijd vullers,? Dag vullers? Ik zou graag naar een<br />

diepte willen gaan van totaal verveeld te zijn & hopelijk terugkomen. Iets slaapt in mij en ik kan het niet wakker maken dus ik blijf<br />

proberen en diegene wat slaapt trekt tegelijk mij, vooral zwaar op mijn rug, het trekt mijn naar voren & beneden.<br />

Rustig doorgaan, misschien komt het nog (weten wat ik hier doe)<br />

Neutraal gevoel.<br />

Nacht van 2-2-05<br />

Dezelfde nacht gedroomd dat ik zo boos was op iemand dat ik niet kon stoppen met schreeuwen tot dat ik overging in slaan. Ik heb die<br />

persoon met geweld een kamer ingeduwd en ik ging erop los. De reden: zij was ver over mijn grenzen heen gegaan. Een vrouwelijke<br />

familielid die verliefd is op mijn vriend en daar op af ging. Mijn gedachten: “ jij komt niet aan het meest heilig in mijn leven” Daarna enorm<br />

verdriet en huilen omdat mijn vriend boos was over mijn actie. Hij zegt in de droom: You have made a scene at a family party and that is not<br />

the place to do it! You have no respect for anybody!!<br />

Donderdag 3-2-05<br />

Volgende ochtend droge hoest met een ruw gevoel in mijn sternum. Herken dit gevoel van de tijd dat ik bronchitis heb gehad op mijn 18 e . Ik<br />

hoest steeds een keer. Doe ik al een tijdje zo, als ik moet hoesten, bedoel ik.<br />

Ongelofelijke trek in yoghurt. Na vorige trituraties ook maar was me niet van bewust dat het misschien hierdoor kwam. Ik ben gewend<br />

periodes door te maken waarin ik steeds trek heb in iets concreets.<br />

Ik ben geschrokken van het feit dat ik me bewust ben dat ik liever aan de andere kant wil zitten. Ik voel me niet depressief en in feite wens ik<br />

ook niet dood te gaan maar ik voelde me daar zo goed. Als ik in contact ben met de andere kant doe ik het vanuit de aarde, vanuit mijn<br />

wezen, met als het ware een klein lijntje dat omhoog gaat. Dit doe ik meestal met Reiki-oefeningen of behandelingen. Tijdens de trituratie<br />

119


zat ik niet beneden maar boven. Het lijntje was geen lijntje, het was alles, ik was alles. Het geeft mij een raar gevoel om hier te zijn en een<br />

aardse bestaan te lijden. Ik ben echter als ik daar boven op de berg zit, want dan ben ik wat ik ben in mijn kern.<br />

Ik heb 4 cases uit te werken en ik kom er niet aan toe om er aan te beginnen. Ik heb geen kracht vrijmaken hiervoor. De kracht moet binnen<br />

mijzelf blijven. Morgen college, weet niet of ik het kan opbrengen om daarheen te gaan. Ik voel me neutraal. Het enige wat ik wil is mijn<br />

kracht voelen en ervaren wat ik werkelijk ben, en dat is, wat ik boven op die berg was.<br />

Ik weet niet zo goed wat ik hier mee aan moet. Mijn neiging is nu, rustig wachten en de aandacht op mijzelf richten. Ik voel trouwens ook<br />

enorme, overweldigende liefde naar de mensheid, in het bijzonder mijn vriend (niets nieuws). Gevoel van eenheid.<br />

en viel, kwam rechtstandig op zijn voeten terecht 1 verdieping lager<br />

Dat hij op de balustrade stapte gaf me wat zorg en ik was verbaasd<br />

dat hij geen letsel had. Geen emoties, alleen constateren.<br />

Prover 7<br />

C3 trituatie, 2 februari 2005<br />

Vanaf ’s ochtends op mijn linker oor een vreemd vegend geluid op het ritme van mijn hartslag. Ik heb al een constant ruisen in mijn oren<br />

maar wordt hier toch niet paniekerig van. Het is heel rustig.<br />

Thuis heb ik even getwijfeld over mijn kleding. Heb besloten zonder BH, met grote trui, stretchbroek en gemakkelijke schoenen te gaan. Dat<br />

voelt heerlijk. Het maakt mij niet echt uit wat anderen vinden. Bij binnenkomst wordt ik blij als ik het schilderij van laatste keer zie. Ik vind<br />

het nog steeds heel mooi.<br />

Aan het begin van de trituatie lichte hoofdpijn rechts.<br />

Vijzel en stamper voelen koud.<br />

Voor het eerst komen Duitse woorden, waarvan ik niet naar de vertaling zoek.<br />

Roerend in de vijzel wijkt de substantie van het midden: Mittelpunktfliehend.<br />

Ik ruik Kampfer (ik zou niet weten hoe dat ruikt en hoe het in het <strong>Nederland</strong>s heet).<br />

S1 Wil alles energiek naar het midden toe schrapen.<br />

Roer met gesloten ogen. Dat voelt goed.<br />

S2 Ben hel rustig. Prettig.<br />

Ben moe, gaap vaak.<br />

Kijk om mij heen, zie anderen zwaar kijken en denk: wij zijn niet blij.<br />

Ruik 4711 (weer in het Duits, Eau de cologne, werd vroeger vooral door oudere dames gebruikt).<br />

S3 Ik wil niet schrapen!<br />

Er gebeurt niets.<br />

Denk in het Duits: Bin nicht bei der Sache. (Ben er niet bij).<br />

Iets staat mij tegen. Ik wil niet met de stroom mee! Sta op en haal thee.<br />

Ik wil mij niet verzetten – maar meedoen is moeilijk.<br />

Heb pijn in mijn hart.<br />

Denk na over het woord verzetten – verzet – oorlog. (Ik lees op dit moment een boek waar over een aantal Concentratiekampen wordt<br />

geschreven).<br />

Kijk naar het schilderij en zou iets soortgelijks willen schilderen. In de linker hoek beneden. Het zou anders worden, rustiger, wel met<br />

dezelfde kleuren. Maar de energie om het daadwerkelijk te doen ontbreekt.<br />

Discipline.<br />

Nog een keer roeren! (Nee toch!)<br />

Der Gang nach Kanossa!<br />

Ik wil dit niet – is dit weer verzet?<br />

Ik ben hier waarschijnlijk niet goed in – SORRY!<br />

Er zit iets creatiefs in. Ik wil bij het schrapen van de substantie een windroos maken.<br />

Wil de C4 tritureren!<br />

Wacht met vertellen. Ik heb niet direct de behoefte het kwijt te moeten.<br />

Geluid in mijn linker oor is er nog steeds.<br />

IJskoude voeten en onderbenen.<br />

3 februari 2005<br />

Heb goed geslapen. Opgeblazen buik. Buikkrampen. Voel mij heel rustig.<br />

Zoek in het woordenboek naar de precieze betekenis van : Gang nach Kanossa.<br />

In het Duits: jemandem schwer fallende, aber von der Situation geforderte tiefe Selbsterniedrigung.<br />

De eerste uitleg in de Van Dale bevalt mij niet, pas in de aanhang vind ik een uitleg die aansluit bij mijn gevoel.<br />

Naar Canossa gaan: zich op deemoedige wijze onderwerpen, en boete doen.<br />

‘s middags erg moe. Val tijdens lezen in slaap. Het is goed zo.<br />

Krijg een enorm (vanaf het middenrif) opgezette buik, heel hard. Het voelt vreselijk. Winderig. Laat een boer (dat doe ik echt nooit).<br />

Ik denk erover morgen niet naar de opstelling te gaan. Ik wil liever de kamer schilderen.<br />

4 februari 2005<br />

Ben niet naar de opstelling. Voel mij een beetje schuldig maar begin blij aan het schilderen van de woonkamer. Dit was een goede beslissing.<br />

Heb in de hele periode een koude rechter arm. Mijn rechter schouder doet zeer. De ene dag is het erger dan de andere.<br />

Mijn stemming is wisselvallig. Soms heel eenzaam en onbegrepen, dan heb ik weer het gevoel het allemaal te weten. Voel mij net als in mijn<br />

puberteit. Heb de indruk mijn puberzonen beter te begrijpen. Sta er dichter bij. Wat is het toch een moeilijke fase. Aan de ene kant alles<br />

weten aan de andere kant zo onzeker. Klein en groot willen zijn, maar wat ben ik nu?<br />

Prover 8<br />

Bij aanvang van de trituratie voelde ik erg me moe, verdrietig en boos.<br />

Voor mij voelde alles tegengesteld bij het tritureren.<br />

Verdraagzaamheid/onverdraagzaamheid<br />

Dan toch maar het weer laten gebeuren<br />

Kippenvel; echt koude rillingen<br />

Geremdheid/ongeremdheid<br />

Voel me draaierig en slaperig<br />

linksom draaien/rechtsom draaien<br />

dan alles weer terugdraaien; dan is het goed<br />

ophouden/weer beginnen<br />

121


streken uithalen/betrouwbaarheid<br />

wil niet schrapen, maar hakken<br />

Kijk om me heen; Gert is lief en komisch zo hard als hij zit te schrapen.<br />

krijg het beeld van een stier te zien bij een boom<br />

voel de trilling van diepblauw en geel<br />

Prover 10<br />

C3 2-2-05<br />

b. eindeloos geduld<br />

2. a. moe, zwaar werk, moe, bijna in slaap gevallen<br />

b. gapen<br />

3. iets wil naar buiten (uit mij) maar kan niet, zelfde gedachten als van middag voor de trituratie, het trekt mij steeds naar binnen, bijna<br />

ademloos, zwaar gevoel, bijna verdrietig maar kalme, niet bang, gevoel alsof ik naar een grote, donker innerlijk gebied, ruimte wordt gedrukt<br />

Prover 15<br />

Dag Allemaal,<br />

Na deze trituratie een immens verdriet en eenzaamheid, en onbegrip dat wij (ik) als mens in staat is om tot planmatige wreedheid in staat te<br />

zijn.<br />

Door het weglaten van gevoelservaringen is dit mogelijk=rationele verklaring<br />

Maar wat mbv de trituratie terugkomt is het kinderlijke element,<br />

en dat is het niet begrijpen ervan. het niet begrijpen met het gevoel, de onmogelijkheid op gevoels nivo jezelf te begrijpen en te ervaren, en<br />

de behoefte te oefenen en fantaseren tot je dat misschien wel kan begrijpen, .<br />

De kinderlijke opluchting dat het lichaam een stof produceert die je beschermd voor het lijden wat de mens aan zichzelf kan ervaren en<br />

zichzelf aan kan doen. Het ondraaglijke te verhelpen met een drug, die je lichaam zelf produceert. Maar toch te voelen dat de oplossing niet<br />

is, maar de illusie. De weerstand om in de illusie te gaan..die is heel sterk.<br />

niet naar het grotere geheel te vertrekken, de illusie op te geven, dat is de pijn.<br />

Als we niet in de emotie / pijn teveel hoeven te gaan, wordt de weg opengebroken naar een groter geheel. maar is dat een escape,<br />

onderdrukking, en laten we de pijn, en de aangedane pijn dan maar niet gemakshalve achter!????<br />

Dat is de pijn die ik nu beleef.<br />

Prover 16 (zit erbij, tritureert niet)<br />

Hele angstige voorgevoelens als ik opsta, dit blijft de hele dag hangen.<br />

Last van m'n buik hierdoor<br />

Ik zie een begrafenisauto<br />

Afscheid, dood, transformatie<br />

Heb enorme hartkloppingen<br />

Alize geeft haar mortier en dit voelt als delen een fijn gevoel, ik schraap.<br />

Gevoel te willen uitbreken.<br />

Arm links boven doet pijn<br />

Stroomt in linkerbeen en tintelt<br />

Bovenbenen voelen aan de binnenkant schraal<br />

Boven op hoofd aan binnenkant tintelingen<br />

Ik voel me intens moe<br />

Ik zie een enorme ijsberg en die gaat smelten, alsof het zachter wordt.<br />

Een onherbergzaam gebied zo een eenzaam gebeuren.<br />

Schouders en bovenarmen zo zwaar en pijnlijk.<br />

Nek pijnlijk<br />

Achter rechter oog pijn<br />

Ik zie een skelet, het doet van achter naar voren pijn aan de binnenkant.<br />

Ik voel medelijden en liefde.<br />

Ik hoor donderdag d.d. 03-02-2005 dat heel slecht gaat met een lieve vriend, hij heeft die dag een operatie en zal het waarschijnlijk niet<br />

redden.<br />

Het lijden voor hem is afschuwelijk.<br />

Dit grijpt me zo aan.<br />

De week ervoor heb ik een afscheidsgesprek met hem gehad.<br />

Het voelt als veel.<br />

Ik ga in meditatie en kom als nog met hem in een geestelijk contact,<br />

daarna wordt het rustiger in mijn gevoel.<br />

Ik heb het besef dat dit weer een afscheid betekent.<br />

INDIVIDUELE SYMPTOMEN C4 TRITURATIE<br />

Prover 1<br />

C4 trituratie d.d. 16 maart 2005<br />

Voel al snel pijn, druk op mijn borst, rechterkant<br />

Koud<br />

Pijn voorhoofd<br />

Wil heel erg in mezelf zitten, laat me met rust!<br />

Loslaten, wil hier niet op aarde zijn, wil naar andere dimensies<br />

Ik wil doorwrijven, nu al schrapen<br />

Ik wil me niet bewijzen, ben goed zoals ik ben, al die verschrikkelijke Ego’s waarvoor ik mij moet bewijzen<br />

Wil weg, weg van deze aardbol, heb het wel gezien hier!<br />

Voelt als bevrijding.<br />

Misselijk, zuchten, geeuwen.<br />

Gert is hard aan het schrapen en dat irriteert enorm: hou op: je verstoort mijn gevoel!<br />

Schrapen duurt me te lang, wrijven duurt te kort<br />

Verlang naar muziek om lekker bij weg te zweven<br />

Zit in een draaikolk, heel veel kleuren, word daarin meegezogen<br />

Daarna is er LEEGTE<br />

Jullie mogen het allemaal hebben, het hele Ego-bestaan, ik vind het prima, ik ga weg!!<br />

Voel me verdrietig, maar ook trots<br />

Pijn in rechteroor<br />

Ruik een licht frisse geur, doet me denken aan de lente.<br />

Dan weer: Ik wil weg!! Voel het in het diepst van mijn ziel: ik wil hier niet zijn!<br />

Daarna gevoel alsof ik echt “weg” ben: ik word steeds lichter, dunner, alsof ik oplos<br />

Dan kom ik terug: waar ben ik? En meteen voel ik: Dit is mijn lot….<br />

Voelt heel zwaar….<br />

Daarna ben ik uit mijn concentratie en heb ik heel veel trek in zoet.<br />

Tijdens de bespreking heb ik wel het gevoel dat ik er “ben”, maar moet daar erg mijn best voor doen, steeds de neiging om weg te willen<br />

“glippen”.<br />

Eenmaal thuis duik ik de koelkast in en werk een Magnum naar binnen, heb behoefte aan zoet en kou om zo te proberen weer meer “hier” te<br />

komen. Daarna word ik overmand door een immens verdriet en moet heel hard huilen. Ik slaap goed, maar word wakker met hoofdpijn. De<br />

volgende dag krijg ik ’s avonds last van kriebelhoest wat zich ’s nachts doorzet met pijn in spieren en koorts, kortom: ik heb de griep. Blijf<br />

thuis (18/3), moet veel hoesten, overal pijntjes in hele lijf en voel me heel erg sloom, alles wat ik doe, doe ik in slow motion.<br />

Om de gouden gang te mogen doorlopen moet je groeien en groei komt door overzicht<br />

Bij gevoel – dat dit even duidelijk is voor mij<br />

Blij! Ik ben blij!<br />

Wat er uit moest komen is er uit gekomen<br />

Middel is voor mensen die door EGO geen overzicht krijgen<br />

Kunnen niet vanuit een andere perspectief uit hun ego zien<br />

Tegenpool te weinig Ego daardoor onbegrepen = verdriet<br />

Oplossing van alle perspectieven leren zien. Ego wanneer nodig?<br />

Grenzen<br />

Grenzen bestaan niet maar dat kan je pas begrijpen als je ook zonder ego kan.<br />

Als ik hierover denk, raak ik verward. SE het gaat even boven mijn pet.<br />

Stem in mijn hoofd – schrijf gewoon op – je bent een boodschapper en nu is je denken- je ego niet nodig. Als je thuis bent, ga eens goed<br />

nadenken wat ego is, inhoud, nu niet.<br />

Ik ben vrienden met de stof.<br />

3 e deel lactose<br />

SE praat met een meester. Ik ga wat leren. Stilzitten en luisteren.<br />

SE dat ik de stof begrijp<br />

Dat ik de essentie begrijp<br />

Mijn leven is nu voorgoed veranderd<br />

OBS: mensen heel geconcentreerd. Ik zie een dilemma in de gezichten. Slaap of pijn?<br />

SE dat ik te snel gaat (3 keer)<br />

OBS: zeer aangename sfeer, ontspannen, mensen praten met ironie<br />

Dankbaarheid naar <strong>Hahnemann</strong> voel ik.<br />

Einde C4 trituratie<br />

1 e nacht -droom: zag kerktoren van het dorp waar mijn ouders wonen ineens in elkaar zakken.<br />

Ouders wonen dicht bij die kerk, alles was verwoest.<br />

Zag het huis van mijn ouders vanuit de plaats aan de andere kant van de straat tegenover<br />

de buren. Was verder niets aan de hand, alleen alles kapot. Dit had geen verdere<br />

consequenties.<br />

- ik was met een trituratie groep in een voor mij gewijde ruimte, ik had een zwart boek in<br />

mijn hand. Iedereen sprak over zijn ‘spirituele ervaringen’, alsmaar, en ieder had wel wat,<br />

de een al mooier dan de ander.<br />

Ik voelde dat de ruimte wat ontwijd werd of zo, waarop een iemand uit de groep<br />

laatdunkend zei: jij verkoopt toch ook alleen maar loten!<br />

Het boek bleek het homeopathische woordenboek te zijn.<br />

- was me bij het wakker worden in eens bewust dat iemand mij incorrect benaderd had,<br />

waarvoor ik een verklaring gegeven had vanuit mijzelf, terwijl me nu duidelijk was, dat<br />

die ander zich had moeten verontschuldigen voor zijn gedrag.<br />

Blij gevoel.<br />

Alize en Jacqueline kletsen veel, ik zeg er wat van en schrik daarvan: hoe haal ik het in mijn hoofd. Voel schaamte – sorry!<br />

Substantie voelt lekker rond in de vijzel, soepel.<br />

Moet aan Irene denken, ik zou iets voor haar willen doen, het lichter willen maken.<br />

Lisanne studeert af op het onderwerp Duitsland en moet de film: “Der Untergang” zien. Wat moet zij inhalen. Iets wat in de familie nog een<br />

plek moet krijgen?<br />

Vanuit onzekerheid belangrijk willen zijn. Dat hoeft nu niet meer. Ben nog onzeker wanneer ik dan wel iets moet zeggen.<br />

Ben blij en dankbaar, dat ik tritueer, dat er geen PC’s op tafel staan, dat wij hier zitten en dit doen. Het voelt verbonden, ook al kan ik niet<br />

iedereen helpen, omdat ik ook weet dat ieder zijn stuk heeft waar hij zelf doorheen moet.<br />

Geert schraapt heel fanatiek, ik maak mij zorgen om hem: “komt het wel goed?”<br />

Voel mij heel heel, wil eigenlijk in deze toestand blijven, hoef niet meer verder.<br />

Es kann doch nur noch besser werden. Oud liedje komt in mij op: Das kann doch einen Seemann nicht erschüttern, keine Angst, keine Angst<br />

Rosmarie!<br />

Voel mij blij. Hauptsache das Ganze zerplatzt nicht wie eine große Seifenblase!<br />

Moet aan het verhaal van Marije denken. Wat erg al die experimenten in de oorlog, dat mensen moeten ervaren dat zij tot iets in staat zijn<br />

waarvan zij dachten dat zij het nooit zouden doen. Die Erkenntnis muß schrecklich sein. Er was geen overzichtsniveau. Ze zaten er te diep in.<br />

“Der Untergang” zien – men kan dingen weten zonder ze meegemaakt te hebben. Als het al in je ziel zit.<br />

Waarom komen wij soms niet aan ons weten? Zit ons Ego ons in de weg? Alles is er toch. Wat zijn wij mensen toch prachtig in ons streven<br />

naar waarheid , het zijn te bereiken!<br />

Zouden wij nog veel moeten wrijven? Geeft niet, wij komen er wel uit met z’n allen.<br />

Volgens mij ziet iedereen alles aan mij, maar dat geeft niet, het is goed zo. Voel mij erboven staan. Dat maakt dat ik mij schaam. Ik hoef dus<br />

niet meer te schrapen.<br />

Ik ben moe, ik wil slapen.<br />

Fanatieke Geert!<br />

Heb het gevoel, dat ik een spel speel. Kan mijzelf geen houding geven. Zou het liefst willen slapen maar weet niet hoe en waar. Kijk naar mij<br />

en schaam mij daarvoor. Durf niet echt ergens te….<br />

Ben een stuk kwijt…….<br />

Weet niet wat er allemaal in mij zit. Ben bang. Existentiële angst.<br />

Nu weet ik het weer: het ging te snel!<br />

Als wij nog doorgaan blijven wij in die toestand.<br />

Is dat de angst voor wat erna komt?<br />

Jacqueline waar zijn de zakjes?<br />

Eintüten – und jetzt weiter!<br />

Heb enorm behoefte aan zoet, gelukkig is er chocola bij Alize. Wanneer gaan wij de C5 doen?<br />

De volgende ochtend kom ik nauwelijks mijn bed uit. Intens moe! Sleep mij de dag door, doe dingen en ben toch niet echt aangesloten.<br />

Functioneer op de automatische piloot. Erg moe. Krijg heftige menstruatie, het lijkt alsof mijn borsten groter zijn. Ben zo moe. Eet een hele<br />

blok chocola. Behoefte aan zoet. Veel geluid in mijn hoofd. De gedachten gieren door mijn hoofd.<br />

Ik droom kort na de trituratie over de oorlog. Mijn kinderen en ik<br />

zitten in een soort zolderhuis. Er wordt op de deur gebonkt. Wij doen niet open.<br />

Dan wordt het weer stil. Een van mijn zoons klimt op het dak om te kijken wat er aan de hand is. Hij wordt direct met een pistool bedreigd<br />

door een soldaat die kennelijk al op het dak aanwezig was. Er wordt ons verteld dat wij over 2 dagen opgehaald worden. Ik neem<br />

afscheid van onze zolder. Ik kijk door een van de ronde zolderramen; zie een hele lange brede goot die helemaal begroeid is met groene<br />

planten zo ver ik maar kan kijken. Ik word met een loodzwaar gevoel wakker.<br />

seks, gewone seks, lust<br />

stel dat ze me moeten komen halen omdat er thuis iets erg gebeurd is..<br />

hoe moet ik naar huis rijden..<br />

ervaring na 1 april.<br />

Ik weet niet of het effect was van de trituratie of de casus van de Nat-m vrouw.<br />

Was zeer onder de indruk van de vrouw. Ik wist meteen dat ze hoorde bij de Ananda Marga groep. Ik vond haar schitterend.<br />

Maar vooral haar hele uitstraling pakte me.<br />

Veel herkenbare dingen.<br />

De dagen erna heb ik veel hoofdpijn en buikpijn gehad. Vooral de hoofdpijn was heel erg. Verdween na 4 dagen maar blijft op de achtergrond<br />

sluimeren.<br />

Alles leek zwaar. Ik was erg gedeprimeerd. Erg labiel. Eigenlijk nog. Ook het beeld van de vrouw blijft bij me..<br />

INDIVIDUELE ERVARINGEN NA INNAME <strong>LAPIS</strong> <strong>LAZULI</strong> C40/4<br />

Prover 1<br />

Ondanks dat ik vorige week het middel niet heb ingenomen, heb ook ik last van mijn onderrug.<br />

Afgelopen vrijdagochtend "schoot" het er ineens in, het was pijnlijk, maar nog wel uit te houden. Totdat het afgelopen zondag het er<br />

nogmaals in "schoot", en ditmaal 3x zo hard in mijn beleving, met als gevolg hevige pijn die uitstraalt naar mijn buik, opgezet en een gevoel<br />

alsof de boel "op slot" zit.<br />

Zitten is bijna onmogelijk, lopen en staan gaan wel maar met moeite, alleen als ik lig heb ik nergens last van. Heb inmiddels via mijn eigen<br />

homeopaat een middel ingenomen, maar helaas tot nu toe nog niet zoveel resultaat.<br />

Klachten met mijn onderrug heb ik vroeger ook wel gehad, echter niet zo heftig als deze keer en het is ook alweer een tijdje geleden.<br />

Toeval??<br />

Ook het gevoel van dat "ik niet meer ben, jezelf kwijt zijn" is herkenbaar, dit heb ik alleen niet deze keer, maar dit had ik al na de C4<br />

trituratie.<br />

Ben benieuwd naar jullie ervaringen/reactie.<br />

Prover 3<br />

11 mei 2005<br />

Vanochtend allemaal plannen. Ik heb veel af te handelen. Beslis eerst een homeopathisch middel langs een patiënt brengen. Normaal<br />

gesproken neemt dit 45 minuten in beslag.<br />

Ik begin dat ik in de verkeerde tram stap, waardoor ik terecht kom in een buurt in Den Haag die ik meestal vermijd, als het kan, omdat die<br />

buurt veel herinneringen naar boven brengt waar ik meestal geen zin in heb. Ik beslis langs de (verkeerde) boekenwinkel te gaan. Ik zeg<br />

verkeerde omdat ik graag naar Verwijs in de stad wilde omdat ik daar een boekje over Differentiaal Diagnose moet gaan ophalen.<br />

Ik loop op straat met een enorme boosheid: Waarom zit ik hier? Waarom moet ik dingen zo doen? Waarom moet het zo?<br />

Eenmaal in de boekenwinkel, zoek ik een cadeau. Wat ik oorspronkelijk wilde is er niet meer dus ik kan dat niet kopen. Uiteindelijk kom ik<br />

de boekenwinkel uit met een boek over xxxxxx (als kado) en een boek van Kubler Ross “Lessen voor levenden”. Ik koop dit boek met een<br />

soort spanning in mijn buik. Ik vermijd al een hele tijd boeken over dit onderwerp omdat ik vind dat ik er niet aan toe ben.<br />

Bij deze twee boeken krijg ik een boekje cadeau over Duitsland and then it hits me...!<br />

De lapis natuurlijk!<br />

Mijn relatie met dit middel is een van love-hate. Het doet me goed en het trekt me aan maar het maakt me ook bang voor de duistere kant<br />

ervan. Ik voel me moedig of juist het tegenovergestelde. Ik besef dat ik dingen vermijd, uitstel, de dingen die ik niet leuk vind en dan blijven<br />

ze terug komen. Op een gegeven moment denk ik: het is nu klaar! Ik ga de confrontatie aan! Tegelijkertijd voel ik de adrenaline in mijn lijf.<br />

Ik voel me net een warrior even voor the battle.<br />

Het valt me op dat ik vaak, als ik dingen schrijf over de Lapis veel woorden in het engels komen. Ik vergeet de <strong>Nederland</strong>se woorden.<br />

Lieve allemaal,<br />

Ik heb veel opgeschreven ivm proving, dit komt later wel. Iets opmerkwaardigs voor mij is het afgelopen nacht gebeurd toen ik aan het<br />

dromen was. Droom wist ik niet meer toen ik wakker werd. Het enige wat ik weet is dat ik in de droom Let it be (The Beatles) aan het zingen<br />

was en zo ben ik ook wakker geworden, met dat nummer in mijn hoofd. Ik heb pas rustig kunnen worden nadat ik het nummer een aantal<br />

keer heb beluisterd. Hierbij dus ook de tekst van Let it be, merkwaardige ervaring, vind ik dit. Het gaat om darkness/unity/answers/Mother<br />

Mary.<br />

Ik hoor graag wat jullie ervan vinden.<br />

De keelklachten, met heesheid herkende ik heel goed van vroeger, dus voor mij was dat wel duidelijk. Dit keer heb ik echter ook oogklachten<br />

gehad, een soort ontsteking < links. Dit ken ik niet zo maar goed het kan toeval zijn. Ik dacht aan de Lapis omdat ik sinds de proving<br />

probleempjes heb gehad met mijn ogen. Ik kan de zonlicht niet meer uitstaan zonder zonnebril. Voorheen kon dat prima.<br />

Nu gaat het wel beter. Ik heb mijn stem terug, ontsteking in larynx is weg, ook bloed en mucus.<br />

Prover 5<br />

11 mei Sinds ik de datum voor het examen gehoord heb, heb ik lumbago.<br />

De buikomtrek in onderhevig aan constrictie, nu niet rond mijn borst maar in het bekken.<br />

Het middel dat ik van Alize kreeg ingenomen en hief de constrictie niet op.<br />

De avond van de dag daarop volgend, bijna 2 dagen na inname van het middel vond de inname van C4/C30 Lapis<br />

Lazuli plaats.<br />

De lumbago met constrictie op buikwand in het bekkengebied, waardoor ik me in de loop van de dag afvraag of er<br />

soms sprake was van een latente optrekkende cystitis, nam na c.a. 1 uur na inname van C4/C30 af om ook weg te<br />

blijven.<br />

Ik ben bang en ga achter een klein gebouwtje met een zuilengang er in staan en denk dat ik zo niet gezien wordt,<br />

want de schutter kon het eens in zijn hoofd halen nog meer mensen te beschieten.<br />

Ik denk dat ik veilig ben en niet gezien wordt. Dan komt er een bekende langs, die tegen me zegt: ga je mee?<br />

Ik vraag hem hoe hij weet dat ik daar sta en dan blijkt: ‘dat hij van een afstand me gewoon kon zien staan’. Ik had<br />

dus een verkeerde inschatting gemaakt, foutje.<br />

Iemand anders wil niet geloven wat ik zeg, sart me, ontkent wat ik gedaan heb en stelt het continu in een totaal<br />

verkeerd daglicht, waardoor ik me volledig onmachtig voel.<br />

Wanneer ze doorgaat met ontkennen en naar me wijst, bijt ik haar uit onmacht vreselijk hard in haar vinger, zelfs<br />

zo dat ik in mijn slaap bloed proef. Ook voel ik in mijn slaap in me zelf de neiging om haar te knijpen, wat niet<br />

gebeurt.<br />

Prover 8<br />

Dreams/biting; Dreams/mortification; Dreams/humiliation;Dreams/helpless feeling.<br />

Wil graag even mijn reactie op de inname van lapis lazuli op 11 mei jl. met jullie delen.<br />

De nacht na de avond van de inname voelde het alsof mijn onderrug "uit elkaar ging".<br />

Een branderig pijnlijk gevoel. Nu, bijna een week later zit er nog steeds een soort brok/<br />

steen in mijn onderrug. Ik meen me te herinneren dat ik een jaar of 3 geleden een<br />

vergelijkbaar gevoel heb gehad in mijn onderrug.<br />

Verder heb ik veel hartkloppingen gehad. Die zijn nu veel minder. en koude uiteinden<br />

(voeten en handen) Voorts veel "instralingen" bij mijn kruin.<br />

Ik heb steeds een heel onwezenlijk gevoel alsof "ik" "ik" niet meer ben. To be or not<br />

to be, zoiets.<br />

Ik droomde een paar nachten na de inname dat ik met 3 andere vrouwen aan het<br />

bevallen was. De contouren van het kindje waren helemaal voelbaar door de huid van<br />

mijn buik. Dan ga ik rechtop zitten en zie het hoofdje tussen mijn benen. Het kindje<br />

kijkt mij aan. Ik "weet" dat het een jongetje is. Daar eindigt de droom.<br />

Ook herinner ik me een droom in de afgelopen week, waarbij ik eerst een schoen en<br />

een rode laars draag. Ik ruil de schoen om voor de andere rode laars (met veters).<br />

Ze zitten heerlijk en ik heb er een blij gevoel over.<br />

Dat was het even voor nu.<br />

hallo allemaal,<br />

129


Het verhaal van Prover 3 raakte me recht in mijn hart. In de tekst van het liedje gaat het o.a. over "Moeder Maria".<br />

In kleur zie ik haar mooie positieve donkerblauwe energie.<br />

Vorige week maakte ik voor iemand een "bijenwas" tekening. (encoustic art), waarbij ik "boodschappen doorkrijg".<br />

aan de hand van de beelden die verschijnen op de tekening. Intuïtief maak ik deze tekeningen. Het frappante nu is dat<br />

op deze tekening een donkerblauwe boog verscheen met daarnaast de contouren van de "Mariafiguur".<br />

Voor mij voelt het nu zo dat wij middels de trituratie van Lapis Lazuli in contact mogen komen met deze "hoge" en helende<br />

entiteit. Zie ook de tekst van het liedje van de Beatles.<br />

Prover 15<br />

Weinig gemerkt na inname veel minder als na trituratie,<br />

opnieuw erg koud geweest en boven en onderrug koud en stijf, bang dat ik last zou gaan krijgen, maar is niet echt gebeurt.<br />

Het woord omarming kwam in een meeting met collega homeopaten steeds terug.<br />

De onderrug pijnen hebben met onderdrukte boosheid en geen ruimte scheppen voor wat je werkelijk wilt "uiten" te maken.<br />

En de diepere gevoelens die er zijn, die toch maar liever te willen onderdrukken, Of er geen ruimte voor maken of kunnen maken.<br />

Ik zou zeggen spreek je uit..<br />

Dat is wat er aan de hand is.<br />

Ik ben benieuwd, of dat gaat werken<br />

Prover 16<br />

Pijn in onder rug en buik, met steken in de blaas,<br />

vlijmscherp.<br />

Heel koud gevoel in onderste deel van de rug.<br />

Een aantal dagen ijs en ijskoud en dan een hele hete huid,<br />

met koorts, de koorts kwam meestal tegen einde van de dag.<br />

Ik kon ook niet warm worden, zelfs niet in mijn bed.<br />

Heel veel hartkloppingen en overslaand hart met schokken door lichaam.<br />

Hartkloppingen heb ik nu nog bij opwinding.<br />

GROEPSERVARINGEN TIJDENS TRITURATIES<br />

Supervisor – Alize Timmerman<br />

C1 Trituratie – 8 December 2004<br />

Observaties:<br />

Obs: er worden sommige dingen met veel humor verteld.<br />

Voor trituratie begint: rommel, mensen zoek, net na pauze normaal?<br />

A: waar is J, G? Moeten ze niet meedoen? Doet ze altijd<br />

C staat al te tekenen. Wil niet dat Alize aan haar tekening komt. Alize zegt dat: wil niet eens da t ik aan haar tekening kom.<br />

M: waarom moet je altijd bij iemand zijn gevoel?<br />

A tekent iets tussen mijntekening en die van C, gaat direct klagen. Zag ik al aankomen.<br />

C : dit is niet de bedoeling. Wat ben je nou aan het doen!!!!<br />

Kijkt zo van: jeetje.. wat erg, wat een zooi maak je ervan?<br />

G kijkt naar Alize en lacht.<br />

C: blijft naar Alize kijken met een soort afschuw.<br />

Blijft er naar kijken. Gefixeerd. Staart.<br />

De groep vindt Alize een puber omdat ze de tekening van C verpest.<br />

Er wordt gelachen om wat Alize zegt: je moet de mensen in de concentratie laten<br />

C: Wie doet dat dan?<br />

A klaar met tekening “ verpesten” kijkt tevreden<br />

C lacht en zegt zie je dat? Terwijl ze naar Gert kijkt.<br />

A: kijkt rond, wij kunnen overal gaan schilderen.<br />

V Lacht: ze heeft die van mij ook verpest... A kijkt boos.<br />

V Kijkt naar de tekening en probeert een betekenis te vinden voor de groene strepen die A heeft getekend op haar vlinder. Eerst hoort het<br />

niet, daarna denk ik het zou het bos kunnen zijn, of gras, of een bloem waar de vlinder beland maar Ik mis de kleuren van die bloem.<br />

Door de web cam van Gert ziet de tekening er prachtig uit! Ontroerd daardoor.<br />

J: zit de hele tijd te lachen over de Al-Co situatie en maakt sarcastische opmerkingen over.<br />

G kijkt naar mij terwijl ik mijn spullen opruim en ik zeg Mind your own business, soort irritatie maar niet echt serieus.<br />

Hij zegt: doe ik ook! En dan even samen slappen lach.<br />

G zucht een aantal keren tijdens de trituratie.<br />

Nuchter: reageren zonder emotionele betrokkenheid.<br />

Prover 15: bepaalde stabiliteit in je emotie. Dat je niet zo verliest in je emoties. In nuchter hoort ook het woord rustig.<br />

Leeuw- vorm van Ik voelde me meer dier als mens. Tijdens tritureren werd ik een leeuw.<br />

Ik kon niet denken als een mens. Ik kon ervaren van vocht, de zon op je huid. Proberen er een mentaal verhaal van te maken, lukte niet. Heel<br />

raar voor mij.<br />

Grijze energie massa en niet meer met vorm. Ik keek anders. Kaarsen branden, allerlei energieën ging erdoor heen, geen vorm. Menselijk<br />

zicht op dingen kwijt.<br />

Wel een paar keer in de spiegel naar kijken. (om te checken of ze een leeuw was). (zie ook Prover 4)<br />

Emoties kon ik anders doseren dan normaal. Mentale laag eronder die gedoseerd naar binnen kreeg. Intensiteit was niet minder, Niet<br />

Ochtend vergeten en dan Smiddads 3 uur stuk herinneren<br />

Geschreeuwd!<br />

Prover 15<br />

Allemaal beelden Auschwitz in sneeuw en kou. IJskoud heel groot plan geweest. Welke hersenen bedenken zulke dingen?<br />

Prover 17<br />

C1 buiten mijzelf geraakt van woede en agressie. Zwaar, Heftig. Daardoor C2 niet durven doen.<br />

Kinkhoest waardoor beschadiging strotklep. Klep slaat om. Snachts stikken, flauwvallen. Sinds trituraties niet meer snachts. Denk dat het aan<br />

het genezen is.<br />

Gedacht nu moet ik stoppen, niet gestopt en dan hoesten.<br />

Kinkhoest – Lac-H is een van de belangrijkste middelen voor Kinkhoest. Iemand uit praktijk Vaak longenphyseem erachter aan omdat<br />

blaasjes opgetrokken worden.<br />

Hitte en branden<br />

Droge neus<br />

Droge slijmvliezen in het algemeen<br />

Alleen maar wolven zag lopen<br />

Boeiend conflict. Prover 15 zegt geen territorium. En dan tegelijkertijd kom je wel in het territorium, ruimte, grens.<br />

Bij territorium hoort altijd een grens. Ik voel dat er geen grenzen zijn. (Supervisor en prover 15)<br />

Grijs-blauw hoort hier niet bij. Donker blauw moet het.<br />

Prover 15: wil de licht blauw<br />

Prover 7: helemaal niet!<br />

Alles blauw turquoise, licht blauw<br />

Heel warm hoofd<br />

Stekende pijn aan beide kanten<br />

Mijn behoefte beeld uit te drukken<br />

Beeld was universele donkere, blauwe hemelschepper<br />

Bal kort klein en tijdelijk<br />

Zag geen evenwicht met de rest en daarom geheel ervan gemaakt<br />

Ik zou geen probleem hebben als iemand anders daar iets meedoet<br />

Niet mijn territorium of zo.<br />

Het universum is tijdloos en gaat in rondgaande golving.<br />

Het is pijnlijk dat je iets doet dat bij anderen als kwaad of anders wordt opgevat.<br />

Je doet iets en dat wordt zus of zo uitgelegd en klopt het niet.<br />

Mensen komen met projecties en het klopt niet.<br />

Pijn is omdat je niet veroordeeld wil worden omdat je iets in een andere dimensie zit.<br />

Andere dimensie en daarom niet mogelijk om je grenzen te overschrijden. Dat zou mij niet beperken. (discussie over grenzen).<br />

Voor mij is het allemaal niet af. Hele laatste maand bezig ben geweest met die kleuren.<br />

Blauw, licht blauw of turquoise bezig.<br />

Prover 7 ik heb een lichtblauw jas gekocht; ik had dat nog nooit gedaan!<br />

Prover 16<br />

Warm<br />

Beetje blij<br />

Opgelucht<br />

Behoefte iedereen te bekijken wat ze doen<br />

Of ze hetzelfde gevoel hebben<br />

Energie, meer energie<br />

Begint duurde zolang de trituratie. Duurt veel te lang.<br />

Laatste melklactose gaat het opeens heel snel,d e tijd.<br />

Heel zwaar, eerst voor mijn leven met beide handen zitten tritureren. Het is heavy.<br />

Mooie vlakte gezien met ontzettend veel reflectie licht in sneeuw veel kleuren, spatte op eens uit elkaar. Pubertjes kwamen dus aan.<br />

Geen droefheid<br />

Moe en zwaarte.<br />

Zwaar, zwaar, zwaar.<br />

Prover 7<br />

Niet eens behoefte om te vertellen<br />

Lichte HP<br />

Rustig en moe en gaap<br />

Kijk en zei mensen M, C, AM en toen dacht ik wij zijn niet blij. En dan ruik ik (Eau de Cologne) Oude mensen geur.<br />

(7 is wel Duits)<br />

Ik wil niet schrappen (17, 3 en 15)<br />

Opmerkelijk dat er niets gebeurde, was niet lamlendig<br />

Ik ben er niet bij, ik ben niet aangesloten<br />

Het staat me heel erg tegen, niet met stroom mee<br />

Ik wil niet roeren, moeilijk<br />

Ik wil me nu niet verzetten, ik moet dat nu niet doen<br />

Meedoen moeilijk<br />

Pijn in hart, verzetten = oorlog<br />

Boek aan het lezen over concentratiekampen<br />

Schilderij gelijk willen schilderen in die hoek maar geen energie ervoor. Rustig heel anders als de vorige keer.<br />

Discipline. Nog een keer roeren, ik vond het zo erg!<br />

Op z’n knieën<br />

Ik wil niet meer. Is dit meer verzet.<br />

136


Ik ben hier niet geschikt voor, heel erg jammer vind ik dat!<br />

Aan het einde toch iets creatiefs in zit. Wil iets moois van maken.<br />

Wil naar de C4. Nu is het klaar. (3 en 6 ook)<br />

Prover 8<br />

Associatie met dood = misselijk gevoel tijdens het tritureren en ook van verhalen die ik heb gehoord. Werkt in mij door. Beroerd van. Kan<br />

niet weergeven in woorden.<br />

Heel veel plezier om G. Zat heel erg, haal eruit wat er in zit...<br />

Stimulerend voor mij (gedrag van G)<br />

Prover 6 keek anders dan normaal (Prover 4)<br />

Prover 6 is lief en komisch (Prover 8)<br />

Prover 9<br />

Het enige wat ik graag wil zeggen<br />

Ik zie van vorige keer dat jij een vissen kop gemaakt hebt en ik dacht ja de dimensies vloeien uit elkaar voort, het is onvermijdelijk. Kennis<br />

Prover 10<br />

Beeld van de zee, voelde een soort getrokken of gedrukt naar een donker plek binnen.<br />

Tv vreemd futuristisch voorwerp<br />

Dierlijke behoefte<br />

Losrukken van banden, kettingen<br />

Helemaal niet aan regels gebonden, asociaal<br />

Zwerver, lekker vrij.<br />

Vrij zijn heel sterk.<br />

Prover 15<br />

Angst voor verwrijving.<br />

Hele diepe zwarte zee.<br />

Heel blij van verhaal regenboog Clara, alsof het samen hoort.<br />

Zee zwart met rimpels.<br />

Vorige keer maar blauwe lucht.<br />

137


Ik nam Prover 7 waar, gezicht veranderd gezicht was opeens vrouw 35 jaar.<br />

Prover 7 gaat helemaal in haar kracht staan. Als een vrouw uitzien. Zo zag ik het eigenlijk.<br />

Marije begint trituratie. Omgekeerd werd en soort jong meisje van 13-14 jaar. Zag er heel anders uit dan nu, bijna ander persoon. Hoe zijn<br />

geplaagd is. Hoe geplaagd ze is moet zijn geweest in die tijd. Vandaag andere kleding aangedaan dan anders om dit te laten zien.<br />

Dat klopt: ik zat in de auto en ik ben terug gegaan. Ik kon niet gaan.<br />

Geen BH, geen make up opgedaan, uitzonderlijk!<br />

Vluchtige gedachten over egoïsme. Wat egoïsme echt is.<br />

Toeeigenen van gevoelens en ineens.<br />

Daarvoor beeld gehad. Aantal jaren geleden vrouw overleden in de praktijk. Tegenover mij vertelde hoe goed het met haar ging. Kwam op<br />

consult voor haar kinderen. ¾ woorden opgeschreven. Weten welk middel 9 maanden is geweest, dat is mijn middel. Ging doorschrijven naar<br />

andere homeopaten. Vervuld gevoel. In deze trituratie, mijn gevoel was Nanny kwam als volgende patiënt bij me binnen. Gewoon binnen<br />

komen, Het verdriet wat je nu hebt moeten we bespreken. Kijk dat is nou wat mensen doen. Ik was boos op mijzelf in die tijd dat ik niet...<br />

Geschokt geen verdriet toen de tijd. Veel verdriet voor haar kinderen en man.<br />

Later begreep ik ook waarom ik dat niet gehad heb. Logisch moment voor haar. Aversie voor wij mensen die toestand van iemand anders.<br />

Zelf een probleem, verdriet hebben over overledene vrouw, alleen verdriet van eigen probleem maar dan projecteren op dood van die vrouw.<br />

Gevoelens die je weer gebruikt via de andere. Woorden door me heen: dit stabiliseert onze extreme gevoelens. Pijn in linker schouder.<br />

Jonge jongens woedige zee tegen golven in bewegen. Dwarsliggende golven veroorzaken. Stout doen en bijna hard, weinig gevoelens zijn.<br />

Ivm patiënt, verdriet was goedkoop geweest.<br />

Stout of rebelse in verborgen ligt. Jonge jongens in de zee hebben kracht om dit zo te doen.<br />

Zee zwart en donker en diep.<br />

Vloer veel prachtige kleuren, stenen prachtige kleuren in zich dragen.<br />

Meer energie.<br />

Droge hoest.<br />

Zuivert gevoelens die de ruimte innemen van anderen.<br />

Ik hoor niet wat er gezegd wordt. Steken linker borst.<br />

Gaperig en zo. (melksuiker)<br />

Over ruzie omtrent tekening<br />

Eind van de avond even gaan staan, aan de andere kant en toen begreep ik waar jullie het over hadden. Paar meter verandering van betekenen<br />

zien vanuit andere dimensie.<br />

Dit middel prikkel gegeven dat het zo is. Werkelijkheden heel snel kunnen veranderen. Mensen kunnen tegelijkertijd verschillende<br />

waarheden zien en ervaren waardoor scheiding, ruzie. Mensen relateren aan waarheid en onrecht.<br />

Kinderen hebben dat gevoel – het is niet eerlijk.<br />

Prover 16<br />

Allemaal angsten<br />

Lichaam in buikgebied<br />

Opstaan met enorme angst en niet kunnen herkennen omdat er is niets.<br />

Na C1 veel gebeurd daarom nu erbij zijn<br />

Dood en afscheid<br />

Vandaag werd ik wakker, zo een angst de hele dag<br />

Gevoel voorgevoelens had<br />

Begrafenisauto tegenkomt en daarna gebeurd iets heel heftigs.. al jaren zo dat als ik ze tegen<br />

Gespannen, hartkloppingen<br />

Gelukkig ik kan nu iets delen, toen Alize vijzel meegaf<br />

Gevoel van losbreken<br />

Linker benen en arm, binnenkant benen schraal<br />

Enorme ijsberg, heel indrukwekkend van boven begon te smelten<br />

Bergen, eenzaam en verlaten<br />

Nek zat vast<br />

....<br />

Skelet beweging van achteren naar binnen<br />

Achter rechter ook pijn<br />

Medelijden, liefde gevoel<br />

Heel koud en zo ontzettend moe<br />

Daarna dagelijkse dingen af te dwalen<br />

IJsberg voor staan? Smelten alsof verharding van het middel, iets zachter kan worden. Vanuit al die dood, afscheid en verdriet. Uitbreken,<br />

doorbreken daaruit, dat gevoel.<br />

Dat lot zo zwaar is om te kunnen dragen (Prover 17 zegt dat ook)<br />

Gevoel hoe moet je dit doen? Periode hiervoor.<br />

Prover 17<br />

Ook boom schilderen, mist de bladeren, doe maar niet.<br />

Verkleed van Praktijkkleren, zat in de auto en ik ben teruggegaan. Ik kon niet gaan.<br />

Enorme rust en sereniteit<br />

Dorst<br />

Alwetend oog, oog van orka wordt oog van havik (weet het ook maar kleiner en meer gefocust, verfijnde blik)<br />

Orka moeder aarde oog<br />

Scherpe zeelucht<br />

Ik mis de bomen en de kracht van de boom<br />

Tijdloosheid<br />

Diepe trance<br />

138


Geen gedachten<br />

Prettig om te zijn leegte en stilte<br />

Wil niet schrappen, dan kom ik uit stilte en rust<br />

Stampen niet door kom heen<br />

Heel emotioneel<br />

Materie is te zwaar, je kan er niet doorheen<br />

Ik wil daar omhoog in de spiritualiteit<br />

Wereld zonder gedachten<br />

Dit leven is me veel te veel<br />

Stoppen met trituratie fysiek te zijn op deze wereld<br />

Ik wil daarboven zijn<br />

Omhoog uit mijn lijf getrokken<br />

Ik wil bewust niet meer hier zijn<br />

Afscheid neem van deze wereld, gevoel<br />

Schrappen, veel herrie maken<br />

Scheten te laten<br />

Herrie maken<br />

Kinderlijke neiging<br />

12-13 jaar gevoel<br />

Bewust vergeten middel te leggen voor patiënt, mag een keer<br />

Verplicht om door te gaan en dan hoesten en stoppen ermee<br />

Bijna dood ervaring, al een keer gehad op andere middel, zo voelde dit ook.<br />

Nu ok<br />

Beeld terminale patiënt. (Prover 4 ook)<br />

Het leven is zwaar. Niet fysiek zwaar is.. emotioneel zwaar vooral.<br />

Prover 18<br />

Terug te kijken naar vorige<br />

Beelden zijn essentieel bij dit middel<br />

Geen woorden kunnen vinden<br />

Dromen heel belangrijk<br />

Constant wakker geweest gevoel van onderdrukking, allemaal Carc innemen in LM1. gaat het weg.<br />

Wrede dromen – vraten kaken vis eruit. Shock dat ik het zag.<br />

Oude schildpadden aten kop van de vis. Associatie over onderdrukte wreedheid.<br />

Tijdens verwrijving stil gevoel harmonieus<br />

What is the name of the game? Iets met spel, soort verleiding en dat slaat het toe<br />

Gevaar komt uit onverwachte hoek<br />

Tijdbeeld is bepalend, tijdgeest bepaald normen en waarden, nee cultuur. Diep geworteld is.<br />

De aard van het beest verander je niet.<br />

Ik zit in een andere werkelijkheid, dimensie. Ik sluit niet aan bij de anderen. Cannabis gevoel iedereen zit te filosoferen.<br />

Prover 15: wreedheid voel ik wel.<br />

Veel dromen, dansen. Nachten gedroomd, pijn in maag, zoveel mensen met zoveel ellende hadden. Mensen zaten er vol van, ze moesten het<br />

kwijt.<br />

Wreedheid: in de droom wel maar in andere dimensie is het geen wreedheid. Tijdbeeld en cultuur is bepalend. Dus andere cultuur of<br />

tijdsbeeld kan het logisch zijn.<br />

Anders in een andere dimensie- botsen van dimensies geeft pijn.<br />

Afgelopen week werkelijkheid bezig geweest. Vriend duidelijk maken dat het zo was. Ik dacht duidelijk zijn dat werkelijkheid veranderd met<br />

voorwerp, hoe jij het bekijkt. Ik wilde heel graag dat een andere die waarheid realiseert. Het is niet iets vaststand.<br />

C4 Trituratie 16 maart 2005<br />

Prover 1<br />

Druk op borst en pijn in voorhoofd<br />

Heel erg in mijzelf<br />

Laat me met rust<br />

Met niemand te maken hebben<br />

Loslaten<br />

Niet hier willen zijn<br />

Ik ben goed zoals ik ben<br />

Hier weg, heb gezien hier = bevrijding gevoel<br />

Irritatie – hard schrappen<br />

Wrijven liever dan schrappen<br />

Wrijven ging goed, schrappen duurde te lang<br />

Verlangen naar muziek bij weg kunnen zweven<br />

Heel veel kleuren<br />

Leegte<br />

Ego bestaan prima, maar ik ga weg<br />

Pijn rechter oor<br />

Ruik frisse geur, lente<br />

Ik wil hier niet zijn<br />

139


Gevoel dat ik weg ben<br />

Als ik terugkom, dit is mijn lot<br />

Daarna eruit..<br />

Supervisor: gevoel dat zij (Prover 1) weg ging<br />

Heftig middel<br />

Hoe voelde je dat? In je lichaam?<br />

Ja, licht worden<br />

Prover 2<br />

Heel lang leeg gebleven<br />

Zwaar en blauw<br />

Voelde stevig draaien, einde licht gevoel<br />

Eigenlijk te stevig, zacht prettiger<br />

Rood voor ogen<br />

Zwart en dan groen en rood<br />

Gevoel van afstand dood gevoel<br />

Onverschillig (niet bij me passen) Het is zo als het is.<br />

Heel lang met ogen dicht<br />

Hagelslag, kou, stilte en koude wereld<br />

Er was geen tijd<br />

Zijn-niet zijn – ik had er niets mee, ik voelde er niets bij<br />

Het is allemaal goed, onverschillig.<br />

Rij mensen door sneeuw lopen<br />

Geen zin in, helemaal nergens toe<br />

Ik vond het pijnlijk<br />

Ogen dicht draaien<br />

SE helderder zie<br />

Draaien lichter<br />

Hier lichter allemaal<br />

Het is helemaal niet zo stevig, lijkt alleen stevig.<br />

140


Prover 3<br />

Angst om te verwrijven naar C5 door verhaal van 11.<br />

Ontzettend aangedaan door verhaal 11. Boosheid, verdriet, ongeloof, BALEN!<br />

Onder de indruk van 11 haar reactie. Sterke vrouw.<br />

Supervisor: Meelevend zijn is van jezelf, actie maar reactie boosheid, balen is van het middel!<br />

Dan moet je het echt doen, want nu zit je in de weerstand en daar moet je overheen.<br />

Prover 5<br />

Enige gelijkmatige<br />

Van boven af naar de wereld kijk<br />

Een sneeuw wereld<br />

Frisse geur van zeepachtig – kruidige geur in meubel winkels in het oosten, Singapore en zo.<br />

Kruidig en fris<br />

Vanuit enige bergdeel naar beneden, geluid gedempt door dikke laag sneeuw<br />

Gedachten aan overleden mensen<br />

Dikke pak sneeuw- vertrouwen<br />

Heel merkwaardig – Alice in Wonderland.<br />

Wie ben ik dat ik deel mag hebben aan..<br />

Barst in eens de concentratie door lachen van iedereen<br />

Stof: het is mij zo gul<br />

Prover 6<br />

Heeft niets te melden<br />

Prover 7<br />

Ik heb een blij gevoel (klinkt niet zo), toen ik begon bedoel ik<br />

Mensen lachen<br />

Jullie te praten, ik zeg er wat van<br />

Schaamte, sorry<br />

Ik moet aan Irene denken<br />

Iets voor haar willen doen om het lichter te maken<br />

Wat moet ze inhalen? Wat in familie nog plaats moet krijgen? En dan weg<br />

Steeds dingen in me opkomen<br />

Vanuit onzekerheid belangrijk willen zijn, dat hoeft nu niet meer, maar dan ben ik nog wel zeker wanneer ik iets moet zeggen. Geen gevoel<br />

voor timing.<br />

Heel blij en dankbaar dat ik tritureer dat er geen PC’s staan.<br />

Gebonden gevoel, ook kan ik niet iedereen helpen want iedereen heeft eigen stuk<br />

Het raakt me maar ik denk ik moet het maar laten.<br />

Zorg om Gert<br />

Wil in deze toestand blijven, ik hoef niet echt verder<br />

Het kan alleen maar beter worden<br />

Zeemanslied in het Duits, maakt me heel blij en dan denk ik..<br />

Hopelijk gaat het geheel niet in elkaar barsten als een grote zeeveld?<br />

Marije experimenten in de oorlog dat mensen iets moeten ervaren wat ze dachten dat ze nooit zouden kunnen doen. Toen geen overzicht en<br />

dat ze er diep in zaten om dat te beseffen.<br />

Film moeten zijn van familie en dan ga ik dingen weten zonder ze meegemaakt te hebben, als het al in je ziel ziet.<br />

Waar zijn mensen krachtig in...????<br />

Zouden wij nog veel moeten wrijven, het geeft niets, wij komen er uit met z’n alleen<br />

Ik voel me er boven staan, het maakt dat ik me schaam<br />

Ik hoef nu niet meer te schrappen.<br />

SE speel spel, kijkt naar mij, schamen daarvoor<br />

Stukje kwijt, heel moe kan niet meer opschrijven<br />

Ben bang, existentiële angst<br />

Nu weet ik het weer, het ging te snel<br />

Als we door blijven gaan blijven in toestand<br />

Angst voor wat er komt?<br />

Prover 11<br />

Dierenverhaal<br />

Ik vind het een beetje flauw<br />

Afvragen waar ik ben<br />

Ik kan niet stoppen met huilen<br />

Voorhoofd kloppen<br />

Afgelopen weken heel moeilijk<br />

Ik wist niet wat ik moest doen<br />

Riep om hulp<br />

Prettig om die man om je heen te hebben<br />

Ik kan niets met Candy voorheen<br />

Beeld van daken van huizen met antennes<br />

Waar gaan die antennes naar toe, vooral naar wat?<br />

Ik word op mijn plaats gezet door middel<br />

Met ego te maken?<br />

Zoveel leed<br />

Vooral vrouwenleed<br />

OPOFFERING<br />

141


Heeft met werkelijke rituelen te maken<br />

In soort wolk en mist<br />

Maan belangrijk<br />

Jonge wolf, ik ben aan het spelen en dat is heel prettig<br />

Vacht warmte en zonnewarmte heel belangrijk<br />

Jeugd en comode heel belangrijk, er staat voor iets maar weet niet wat<br />

Vuur te maken met beslissingen<br />

Bij Indianen, trommel ceremonie gaande, het gaat over oorlog<br />

Vredespijp gerookt maar terwijl we dat doen onderspit moeten leven, het is niet echt. Voor het komisch verhaal is het nodig<br />

Dik stroperig spul, geel, energetisch allemaal vuil, het is niet fijn maar alle anderen kwaliteiten ook zichtbaar<br />

Pees en bloed bezig, vooral pezen belangrijk in het verhaal<br />

Tovenaar, alchemistisch proces het gaat voor de hele wereld en geen emotionele betrokkenheid, het gaat om het totale overzicht.<br />

Wolven, ik word weer een wolf<br />

Ik kan alles ruiken en proeven<br />

Ik communiceert met het water, het gaat over het vuur van de aarde, zeggen de bomen als ik een niew bloesem wil vormen<br />

Groot zwaart gat, hart tekeer<br />

Ipv gele verf is het nu wit<br />

Kattenogen gehad die ik eerder heb gehad<br />

Jungle constant over vocht, buien,<br />

Over eenzaamheid, diepe eenzaamheid<br />

Alles wordt geëlimineerd<br />

Gemeen gevoel gehad<br />

Enorm grote spin, zwarte spin zonder richting of ruimte<br />

Binnenkant huid zwart<br />

Buitenkant helemaal wit<br />

Droge mond<br />

Alles is droog<br />

Heel moe<br />

Niets meer zin heeft<br />

Zin om alles overboord te gooien en niets meer<br />

Heel interessant, ik ben goed aan het kijken wat er gebeurd<br />

Er gebeuren hele grote dingen in mijn omgeving<br />

1 jaar lang partner voor een zaak. Mijn hele toekomst op gebaseerd, bijna verhuisd.<br />

Alles is weg. Vriendje ging weg. Het is niet erg, maar het heeft ook wel wat.<br />

Ook geen mannen die leuke dingen tegen me zeggen, integendeel<br />

7 resoneert met 11<br />

Ik voel veel angst uit jouw spreken en ook heel veel schaamte<br />

15 voelt ook veel eenzaamheid.<br />

Prover 12<br />

Vanmiddag om 14 uur – elke dag dat we C4 hebben<br />

HP in voorhoofd en daarna achter<br />

Gezwollen speeksel klieren<br />

Buikpijn precies onder middenrif<br />

Benen strekken ging niet<br />

Warme handen en voeten en andere trituraties tegengestelde<br />

Rust ontspannen<br />

Onrust chaotisch afwisselend<br />

Niet kunnen concentreren<br />

Zwaar in slaap<br />

Witte wereld alles bedekt en stil maakt<br />

Sneeuw eruit pakken uit mortier, gevoel,ook die kou<br />

Wat is dit nou? Gedachten wie ben jij?<br />

Vervormde gezichten in mortier krijgen en Duitse woorden in mijn hoofd = verwarring<br />

Wat moet ik daar nou mee?<br />

En dan chaotisch<br />

Moe, slaperig en moeite met concentreren<br />

Zwaarmoedig afwisselend met luchtige stemming<br />

Kwetsende voelen van oude dingen, lang geleden<br />

Vooral kwetsende dingen kwamen boven<br />

Prover 13<br />

Heel warrig<br />

Dissociatie gevoel<br />

Ik vergeet alles<br />

Hoofd blanco<br />

Kleuren komen uit, heel duidelijk<br />

Zo ver over grenzen te zijn dat ik de aarde niet meer zie<br />

Het is niet eerlijk hoe mensen elkaar belazeren, iedereen doet het.<br />

Dan slaap<br />

Zelfs in slaap vallen als ik een moord heb gezien (en dan nog verder slapen)<br />

Pijn in arm.<br />

Diepe zee, zweven<br />

142


Half slaap toestand<br />

Waarom val ik in slaap?<br />

Wil ik niet weten<br />

Ik wil wakker en alert zijn<br />

Actie is die telt maar het is eigenlijk niet zo, weet ik<br />

Gert heel hard schrappen.<br />

Soort Lord of the Rings – op het moment dat je in slaap gaat vallen (heb ik vaker)<br />

Droombeelden bij het schrappen, bijna in slaap vallen.<br />

Prover 15<br />

Op een heel bepaalde manier associaties. Niet eenvoudig te vinden<br />

Moe en hongerig. Begrijp er niets van<br />

Gevoel van kou, heel letterlijk (geestelijk)<br />

Spiritueel eenzaam en koud<br />

Hoe komt het dat het zo is en zal zijn?<br />

Noordelijke kou<br />

Uitgestrekt eenzaam en nat<br />

Idee voor stijgen naar....<br />

Het is de overgang<br />

Wit en sneeuw<br />

Overgang door doodsgebeuren heen<br />

Woord: skelet kwam steeds in me op<br />

Elkaar beschuldigen uitweg om verder te komen om in de vrijheid te kunnen komen,<br />

Zorgt voor antwoord en oplossing. (te maken heeft met sterk aan de dood doet denken, beelden van Ars patiënten, tibetaanse meditaties met<br />

stervenden, energie opgespaard door kou om transformatie te maken, nodig is dat voor mensen sterven beschuldigen de omgeving om vrij te<br />

kunnen komen)<br />

Doodmakend – op zij zetten. Dat is de doorgang door de dood, kou nodig om in stilte te komen<br />

Droogte gevoel – zelfs pijnlijk<br />

Dr Zhivago<br />

Diepe grote liefde met voortkomen uit het kou, kou nodig om daarin te komen<br />

Kou bloeit en kracht ontwikkeling, door kou heen en winterslaap<br />

Energie opbouw nodig om naar buiten toe te komen<br />

Fenomeen natuur zich terugtrekt in de winter – een aantal bomen en planten nodig om te kunnen groeien. Dat was het gevoel.<br />

SE dat het doorgegaan moet worden. Verder tritureren naar C5.<br />

Sterk idee van verstillend zijn.<br />

Afgevraagd hoe kom ik er bij?<br />

Prover 16<br />

Ik zag jou 18? in die sfeer zitten, in het wit spiritueel. Heel leuk gewoon.<br />

Stil en krachtig en rustig<br />

Winter vlakte<br />

Zorgeloos, dankbaar, stil en rust<br />

Alize resoneert met 17, 7 en 2 voor mijn gevoel is het hetzelfde.<br />

Niet met 18<br />

Prover 17<br />

Diepe onverschilligheid<br />

Doet me helemaal niets<br />

Ik reed hier naar toe, voor mij sliep<br />

Ik wist niet wat ik moest doen, auto op cruise controle<br />

ABS in werking, op vluchtbaan geweest.<br />

Ik zag auto’s volop rennen en ik wist niet meer wat ik moest doen<br />

Met beide benen remmen zoeken, anders ben ik dood.<br />

Paar seconden maar.<br />

Ik heb mijn auto bedankt<br />

Stikaanvallen weer gehad, week of 8 niet gehad<br />

Dit middel wil ik helemaal niet meer. Klep verkeerd. Ik verslik me overdag.<br />

Kom hier binnen, voel meteen heel veel bij Irene. Weet niet of ik haar mag storen.<br />

Begin met stof<br />

Slaat op mijn keel<br />

Ik wil niet stikken. Ik wil niet dood<br />

Ik wil leven , enorm verdriet<br />

Enorme pijn in linker rib en dan rechts<br />

Steken alsof longen protesteren<br />

HP rechter oog en dan naar links en dan voorhoofd<br />

Niets doet me iets<br />

Alles zit vast in mij<br />

Er is geen beweging<br />

Wat doe ik hier?<br />

Er is niets, er is niets.<br />

Verschrompelde huid,<br />

Geen leven, mummie soort<br />

Gedroogd<br />

Ik wil niets doen alleen maar heen en weer<br />

143


SE Borst groeien en zwellen<br />

Ik voel bijna nooit bij mannen aantrekkingskracht ontzettend onttrekking kracht in<br />

Hij triggert het geile in mij<br />

Overgangsfase, SE golfpatroon<br />

Bevroren van binnen<br />

Afgelopen weken zo vrij en onbezorgd dat het bijna levensgevaarlijk<br />

Bijna geschept door grafmachine<br />

Warmte naar mijn hoofd<br />

Ik kan genezen met mijn handen, was weg<br />

Hitte in hoofd en gezicht ook<br />

Bewust – wel genoeg doe en ben voor omgeving?<br />

Ik wil niemand te kort doen<br />

Ik voel me heel verdrietig<br />

Toekomst beeld – ik mag in de toekomst kijken<br />

Ontroert mij enorm.<br />

Daarna allemaal patiënten die ik niet heb kunnen helpen, voorbij komen<br />

Knikken en zwaaien naar mij alsof het ok is. Ik heb genoeg gegeven.<br />

Schrappen en verwarring, alles laten vallen geen zin om dingen vast te houden<br />

Heel erg moe<br />

Ik heb Torticollis naar links, iedereen zit scheef naar links. Voor kinderen met KISS syndroom. Alleen Gert zat recht.<br />

Dan in verdriet, ik wil rust en ik wil niets meer doen<br />

SE alsof ik vast zit, kan niet in andere beweging (KISS) – vastzitten<br />

Geen zin meer<br />

Ik wil slapen<br />

Voor gevoel huil ik<br />

Ik wil slapen en ik wil niets meer<br />

Ik wil niet meer<br />

Geen connectie met omgeving<br />

Prima alleen<br />

Afgesloten ruimte zit ik<br />

Bij bewustwording = kokhalzen<br />

En nu is het afgelopen<br />

En dan: ik wil nog steeds niet dood<br />

En nou moet ik er doorheen<br />

Driftig draaien<br />

Ik moet doorzetten om te kunnen leven.<br />

Enorm bewust van geen tijd.<br />

Prover 18<br />

Ook iets met Egypte gehad<br />

Vanochtend HP links voorhoofd<br />

2 dagen gelden gedroomd door slang, heel dun, stop in een zak en slang bijt, laat vallen<br />

gaat weg, kinderen de trappen oplopen en gebeten worden maar ze voelen dat niet.<br />

Op weg hier naar toe. 3 mannen een soort seksuele energie, gesprekken op de fiets,<br />

Flirten, met de lente te maken?<br />

Hoe lang ben jij? 2-3 meter, vrouw zat er naast. Heel grappig!<br />

Op eens in een tempel waar handen werden geofferd, offeren van het mannelijke ten gunste kracht de vrouw, sterven maar alleen de kleine<br />

dood = orgasme van de man.<br />

SE van gebruik, voorwerp om tot het hogere te komen = spirituele. Orgastische energie, spirituele bewust gaan van beneden naar boven. Als<br />

soort drug, werkt in je geest.<br />

En dan kruinchakra verruiming. Dat is die explosie ook. = druk in hoofd. Druk moet eruit. Energie opgeslagen.<br />

Wrijven heel fijn een soort opbouw energie in mij lijf, kwam van benen.<br />

Inwijdingsritueel.<br />

OBS: Heel veel lachen in de zaal<br />

De kleine dood – 3 dagen in sarcofaag. Inleiders dood.<br />

Verkeerde orakel meegenomen Ik had Godinnen kaart moeten meenemen. Heel veel met priesteressen en Godinnen.<br />

Sterke vrouwen, vrouwen met veel kracht.<br />

Hij is dienend in het vrouwelijke principe. Gert enige man.<br />

Beeldvorming – ritueel met vrouwen, een kring energie vanuit de grond door lichaam heen, schoot van beneden naar boven.<br />

Waanzinnige power.<br />

C5 moeten maken, vanuit derde oog heel ruimte.<br />

Veels te kort.<br />

Geen HP meer.<br />

Kleuren? Paars en blauw<br />

In een wit gewaad met gouden band omhoog.<br />

Prover 20<br />

Bijna alles wat prover 15 heeft<br />

Droge mond<br />

Heel moe<br />

Iets met oordeel weet niet wat, schuld aan de andere geven (Alize) het is zo zwaar dat je dan zelf wel door kunt gaan. Eerst negatief<br />

beoordelen en daarna iets moois uit, het kan ook ok zijn. Deze manier van denken volstrekt nieuw voor mij. Waarneming was het eigenlijk.<br />

Schuld is dus nodig, als uitweg, ergens uit komen. En ook nog bedenken dat het een oplossing kan zijn. Andere is ervaring van koud en<br />

doorgang. En transformatie die nodig hebt om te verkouden om alle krachten te verzamelen om te groeien, begin trituratie: waar zal dit toe<br />

leiden? Kou en eenzaamheid. Noordelijke landen, altijd koud, zag ik. Niets met Egypte te maken. Tegenpool (Vanessa).<br />

Dementie, verstervend, dood van eigen vader<br />

144


Mager en botten<br />

Zo moe en hongerig, ben ik ziek?<br />

C5 Trituratie 1 April 2005<br />

Prover 2<br />

Irritatie<br />

Geen zin<br />

Alize opmerking –dubbel nog geïrriteerde en een soort vrolijkheid<br />

Stom gedoe dit, dacht ik<br />

Zie je wel, ik had het niet moeten doen terwijl ik geen zin in<br />

Het is hier echt niet serieus<br />

Ontzettende boosheid<br />

Ik gooi dat ding uit het raam<br />

Super belachelijk<br />

Geen zin meer dan<br />

Veel plezier om Gert en zijn geschrapt<br />

Bleekwater<br />

Sloom gevoel in mond<br />

Er veranderd niets aan als ik er wel mee of niet mee doe<br />

Pijn rechter oor<br />

Misselijkheid < door draaien (wrijven) en er ook niet nakijken<br />

Geluid vervelend<br />

Ik ben blij dat het over is!<br />

Prover 3<br />

Niet meegedaan aan de trituratie. Weerstand. En niet van mijn gevoel af willen. Bij mijzelf blijven.<br />

Prover 5<br />

Duidelijk behoefte aan concentratie<br />

Tijd<br />

Verdriet en vreugde door elkaar, blijdschap<br />

Linker long borst/hart hoogte – soort knagende<br />

Sterke behoefte vijzel tegen aan te houden<br />

Transpiratie<br />

Zoete smaak achter in keel<br />

Branden de gevoel voeten<br />

Niet verbonden met substantie als vorige keer<br />

...<br />

Verstoringeenheid op<br />

Zuidpool<br />

Zee, ruimte<br />

Fijn voor anderen maar het hoeft niet<br />

Irritatie en SE verontwaardiging<br />

Knagende pijn rug rechts naar links<br />

Knagende pijn rondom hart<br />

Spierpijn mn schouderbladen<br />

Ongeduldig erbij<br />

....<br />

Niet aan de stof gehecht<br />

Wazig zien<br />

Prover 6<br />

Joligheid gevoel dat het zo kan omslaan en dan niet leuk (Vanessa)<br />

Voelde heel erg alsof groep uit elkaar getrokken werd, als jullie weggaan, dan voor eigen tijd zorgen eigen verantwoordelijkheid<br />

Toen jullie terug kwamen over, dan groep weer bij elkaar<br />

Ik zie allemaal doornroosjes, jullie waren er niet meer, jullie zaten in dromenland<br />

Iedereen volkomen weg Obs Gert<br />

Energie werkt anders op mannen of vrouwen. Iets met seksualiteit te maken.<br />

SE van verantwoordelijkheid maar sterk voor het hier en nu<br />

Prover 7<br />

Blij en opgewonden<br />

En tegelijk obstinaat<br />

Wij kunnen net zo goed met elkaar koken, het gaat om het doen<br />

Hard lachen Nanny en ik dacht dit is een leuk middel, Nanny nooit zo zien doen<br />

Wilde naar buiten maar niemand houdt dan de tijd bij.<br />

Ik voelde wat verzet, mooi werd met elkaar het maakte me bang<br />

Fijn gevoel en straks is dat weer weg<br />

Verbondenheid met elkaar prettig<br />

Maakte me bang omdat het onvoorspelbaar is<br />

Gevoel dat het zo kan draaien<br />

Ik wist niet dat het vrijdag was<br />

Vis dag<br />

Onzin komt uit geloof en ik heb er niets mee<br />

Goede vrijdag verhaal..<br />

145


Hoorde iedereen stampen en dat was wel fijn, iedereen bezig met een bepaald ritueel<br />

SE straks gaat geest opstijgen, ramen moeten open<br />

Buddha, rituelen<br />

Voelde heel licht<br />

Het individuele doet er niet meer toe<br />

Het viel me op dat iedereen heen en weer lopen<br />

Iedereen zo bezig met de tijd<br />

Prover 8<br />

Verantwoordelijkheid als plicht staan<br />

Er boven kijken, het gouden van bovenaf<br />

Moeilijk om het licht te krijgen, waardoor voor mij donker en geïsoleerd aanvoelde omdat ik er niet goed in kon kijken<br />

Afgeleid door chloor geur (Clara sterk water)<br />

Tijdloos gevoel<br />

Pikte gedachten op, helder moment<br />

Voelde heel helder<br />

Vorige keer – sterke helderheid gevoeld in mijzelf<br />

Observerende helderheid<br />

IJspegels terechtkomen<br />

Prover 9<br />

Lichtheid<br />

Heerlijk om mee te resoneren<br />

Uitbundigheid<br />

Prettig als vrijblijvendheid = vrijheid je niet belemmerd voelen<br />

Totaal onbezorgd<br />

Heel erg lachen<br />

Het slaat dan om als ik een beeld van droom zie, afgelopen nacht<br />

Noordzee<br />

Jong Anima deel van vermoord wordt, invulling van mijzelf<br />

Jong vrouwelijke wordt in de kin gesmoord, dat beeld houdt op<br />

Moeite om het serieus te nemen, ook wat ik hier doe en de homeopathie serieus te nemen. Als ik dit zomaar kan doen = twijfel over<br />

homeopathie<br />

Overgelaten gevoel aan het lot<br />

Derde oog in het midden van substantie schaduw patronen te maken met adelaar, schaduwmakers<br />

Prikkeling in neus – substantie in via de neus?<br />

Licht-donker<br />

Leven in het paradoxe, juist steeds belangrijk om dat te mogen voelen en een keuze te mogen maken<br />

Prover 11<br />

Flauw gevoel vond ik het<br />

Adelaar kwam van de videocasus<br />

Bij de vrouw overzicht<br />

Los willen zijn van alles<br />

Gewoon vrij maar los<br />

Erg warrig<br />

Reuzen – alle soorten en maten<br />

Bergtoppen- echt de top van de bergen<br />

Het hart als orgaan als symbool<br />

Heen en weer geslingerd, of heel erg mooi of verdwaasd?<br />

Boom is vlammenzee staan, elke boom in een kleur<br />

Lichaam alles samentrekken, gevoel<br />

Verkrampen<br />

Alles in lichaam werd klein<br />

Bovenkant van het hoofd had ik niet meer, er was alleen energie, bewoog omhoog?<br />

Weer een reus, die keek op de aarde neer, was aan het vijzelen en die maakte de sterren<br />

Dubbel – ga je daar niet te ver in? Zei tegen mijzelf<br />

Verantwoordelijk voelen voor alles, maar vooral voor de aarde<br />

Letterlijk moeder aarde, milieu (Alize ook)<br />

Verantwoordelijke met mijn hele geest, allemaal verantwoordelijk<br />

Over verleiding maar niet met lust erbij of uiterlijk<br />

SE verleidelijkheid zonder lust, zacht, mooi en universeel<br />

Beeld giraf, ogen van een giraf<br />

Sneeuw, eskimo’s<br />

Verantwoordelijkheid welzijn van de aarde<br />

Visoen over de toekomst, hoe het zou gaan met mij en de zaak<br />

Het ging allemaal over begrip.<br />

Toekomst – horkaan, tornado in Amerika vanuit India?<br />

Ik voel me heel anders als de vorige keer maar wel heel verantwoordelijk,<br />

Deze verantwoordelijkheid ga ik niet meer kwijt raken (Vanessa een van de trituraties – mijn leven is voorgoed veranderd)<br />

Prover 13<br />

Begin wakker zin plezier te maken<br />

Naar buiten heerlijk, zalig<br />

Nu wil leven veranderen radicaal maar weet niet waar te beginnen<br />

146


7 minuten duurde heel kort<br />

Verdriet SE druk op hart?<br />

...<br />

Hoe kan ik het toch goed maken?<br />

Dit na de dood is, gevoel<br />

Teleurstelling<br />

....<br />

Nu nog niet weg, zit er nog in<br />

Prover 15<br />

Hetzelfde gevoel<br />

Dubbele emoties wel niet wel niet<br />

Vorige keer hoefde niet en de rest zo overtuigd van wel<br />

Merkwaardig dat mensen weg zijn van wat ze volovertuiging wilden.<br />

Tegengestelde emoties<br />

Tegengestelde van Alumina casus (die daarvoor bekeken werd)<br />

Ineens heel stil – alsof verdieping lager:<br />

Om iets te bereiken moet je door weerstand heen angst is...<br />

Zo verschrikkelijk vervelend ineens kwam ik weer terecht in tegenstelling waardoor oorlog is ontstaan:<br />

Wij moeten begrijpen dat tegenstelling niet is, als tegenstelling meestelling is dan worden we eens gered...<br />

Wond is heel groot, hier kan ik er niet uit komen<br />

Hopeloos gevoel, terug naar 2 e trituratie<br />

Tegenstelling is niet groot maar lijkt groot<br />

Obstakel – Obstinaat = weerstand zit er ook in<br />

Naar buiten gegaan – naar binnen gaan zwaar voor mij<br />

Oplossing geloof in jezelf te hebben en dat te kunnen overstijgen<br />

Belast voelen met deze gegevens uit het verleden.<br />

Er zit veel meer in het middel<br />

Einde-transformatie<br />

Gevoel van willen overstijgen en samenkomen.<br />

Beelden van tegenstelling in de grote wereld. Persoon niveau te overstijgen is belangrijk<br />

Sterk gevoel van oorlog zijn. Vervelend om het hier te zeggen.<br />

Middel van Krijgers - eerste symbool getrokken door Jacqueline toen ze naar boven ging.<br />

Boosheid- waarom moeten we dat proces door om samen te zijn naar het hogere zijnsnivo te zijn. Ik ervaar die tegenstelling als wreedheid.<br />

Waarom kunnen we die stap niet overslaan?<br />

Een kinderlijk gevoel was dat! Het donkere overslaan.<br />

Moment niet willen dat te doorleven.<br />

Sterke tegenstelling in mij – heel lief en liefdevol naar omgeving en familie kan zijn en wreed naar de wereld zijn = alles met oorlog te<br />

maken. SE dom en vermoeiend, dat gevoel.<br />

Chloor heeft daarmee te maken. In Chloor gaat niets leven. Vulkaan – geuren waarin niets kan leven. Chloorlucht is dood. Dodelijke geur,<br />

leeft midden in de aarde.<br />

Doorroosje- sprookje tegenstellingen.<br />

Prover 18<br />

Licht en luchtig<br />

Speels<br />

Helderheid<br />

Ruimte in mijn denken<br />

Vrijheid<br />

Voelde verbinding met iedereen met gevoel vrij erin te bewegen<br />

Visoen – iedereen leuk lachen – Irene oude bekende<br />

Ontmoeting met totemdier<br />

Belangrijk contact te maken met oersymbolen<br />

Energie door lichaam stromen en tegelijk licht<br />

Dreamcatcher – je eigen droom opvangen in glaswater en dan opdrinken<br />

(Dreamcatcher houden slechte dromen tegen)<br />

Oersymbolen en dan naar boven – pakte er een lezen en dan onzin eigenlijk<br />

Je moet je eigen symbolen leren begrijpen en doorgronden, veel belangrijker.<br />

Antwoord ligt in de vraag – Ontsloten<br />

Prover 19<br />

Onraakbaar<br />

Geen gedachten niets<br />

Wel fijn<br />

Prover 20<br />

Heel ongeconcentreerd<br />

Zal de Paus wel/al dood zijn?<br />

147


Ik vond het niet leuk dat jullie weggingen naar buiten<br />

Ongeïnteresseerd in het middel<br />

Na tijdje kreeg ik iets meer maar het blijft een beetje vaag<br />

Een beetje misselijke<br />

Seksualiteit en spanning daar om heen<br />

Buikpijn en misselijk<br />

Rugpijn<br />

Thema DOOD – vaag iets met iemand prostaat kanker<br />

Seksualiteit<br />

Stel voor dat ze me komen halen omdat er iets gebeurd is thuis, hoe zal ik dan rijden<br />

Wat zou er dan gebeurd zijn?<br />

Alles te maken met DOOD<br />
