Flower Essences for Healing and Spiritual Acceleration by Elizabeth Chandler

How would you like to take a flower essence that would clear negative imprints or “energetic scars” held in your energy field that generations of your family had thought to be true? Or would you prefer an essence to enliven the threefold flame of divine power, wisdom and love in the chalice of your heart chakra? How about an essence that enhances your telepathic abilities? Flower essences “… have energetic effects at much higher levels…and often have very different therapeutic effects…”(Gerber, p.87) than the dried flower petals or the oil extracted from the flower. A review of the literature includes an incredibly broad spectrum of uses for essences including physical, neurological, emotional, realignment of subtle anatomy, improvement of psychic development, and softening the response to anti-cancer treatments.

Flowers have been used for thousands of years for healing purposes. Most of us know that dried chamomile flowers infused to make a tea, calm, soothe and help you sleep. The oil from rose petals is created to make an extract that clears heat, stabilizes the heart and relieves irritability. When utilizing flowers at the essence level, using just a few or even one flower, we juice up the wattage, raise the frequency, or think of it has a treatment for all of the layers of our energetic system, not just the physical body. It is useful to remember that just 5% of our body is actual the physical matter, the other 95% comprises the energetic body (including the entire chakra system that reaches up into the cosmos like an antenna and tunes to various frequencies on etheric realms, much like a radio tunes into various frequencies or “stations.”) So it really makes a lot of sense to treat more than just the physical body.

In the practice of making flower essences for healing purposes, nothing physical is transferred into the solution. The actual essence is the electromagnetic pattern of the flower. Just as there are nutritional elements found in the plants useful for the health of the physical body, so in turn are there patterns of biomagnetic energies discharged by the flowers on other frequency levels for the health of various energetic layers of your body’s energy system. If you were to take a Kirlian photograph during the process of extracting a flower essence into a bowl of purified water you would see a mist-like imprint of the flower with small trailings of light moving into the water. In this process, one is working with the ethereal vibration of the plant, its life force, its etheric imprint.

It is fascinating to learn that these essences “…travel at slightly faster that the speed of light…”(Gurudas, p. 28) as they move from the physical body into other levels of the energy system. The actual pathway that the flower essences take to move through the physical body to the energetic bodies is complex. For the purposes of this article it will have to suffice to note that the remedy almost immediately settles mid-way between the circulatory (blood) and nervous systems. The two systems contain quartz-like properties and an electromagnetic current. The essence moves in the current to the energy meridians, and from there to the subtle bodies, the chakras or returns to the physical body to the cellular level. (Gurudas, p.27-29).

The scope of healing available through flower essences is truly miraculous and ever expanding and there are literally thousands of flower essences available. Many essences work on an emotional level. The flower of Arrowhead encourages the purity of God emotion instead of the roller coaster emotions we often experience. Scarlet Runner Bean helps us to face our fears with courage rather than running away from them. There are flowers to loosen old habits, clear depression and keep us walking on our divine path no matter what the obstacles. There is a flower that is one of the most ancient on earth and holds the blueprint for the energy field of an enlightened human!

Flower essence therapists that are making flower essences with a liquid vehicles other than alcohol find that they are then divinely guided to put combination formulas together that contain up to 15 (or even more) essences. This is because every high quality flower essence that is made is alive. Each flower holds a complex expression of form known as a flower deva. When creating a flower essence, the creator actually calls forth the deva intelligence. Deva energy holds flower essences in place. A deva will hold in an alcohol base for awhile but not happily. Once the essence is moved into a liquid vehicle that supports higher frequencies, deva energy flourishes, and combinations of essences can be utilized to bring up the wattage of a treatment for the human energy system.

Red shiso is a beautiful plant from the mint family that is seen growing more in Asia than in this country. It is made into a “tea” and then can be utilized as a “vehicle” in which the flower essence can be preserved. In my own work, I have also been divinely guided to preserve some of my flower essences in organic Bulgarian rose water with mantras and prayers. Combination formulas that contain up to 15 (or more) different flower essences hold the ability to produce a substantial increase in the amount of light or wattage held by the energy system. In thinking about the entire energetic system of the body, one flower essence might turn on one “light bulb,” while a number of essences turn on lots of “light bulbs,” and can create higher wattage and produce a powerful energetic shift. Energy shifts can easily improve our ability to communication with divine guidance, correct imbalances in the energy field that have kept us from experiencing greater abundance and prosperity, can accelerate the ability to manifest, can enhance spiritual partnerships, give better energetic protection for healers, increase sensitivities to the fairy realm, and provide solutions for challenged children and adults and even plants and animals.

A flower essence therapist can read (often remotely) the energy field of her client and see where the flower essences can correct areas where there is imbalanced energy flow. If a combination essence is utilized, the negative imprint or energetic imbalance can be cleared in about 3 weeks. Personal formulas can be made up by flower essence practitioners that specifically address the shifts that will help individuals make their next step in evolutionary healing and spiritual growth.

Flower essences represent a radical step in new ways to clear and shift our energy field into higher states of vibrational purity. It is said that “…Releasing spiritual and medicinal properties stored in the flowers is one of the great keys to unfolding God’s plan on the earth plane…”(Gurudas, p.5). Our experience of Heaven on Earth is beginning to evolve at faster levels as collective consciousness reaches higher stages of healing and evolutionary acceleration. Flower essences are of invaluable assistance at this level to hold us in shifts that others can then tune to. Relish in the wonder of our life, here on earth, immerse your levels of beingness in the essence of the flowers. How could it be any more beautiful?
