Guard Your Peace: Lantana Essence for Unmatched Protection.
Plus The Scent of Serenity: Discover the Power of Handmade Chinese Moxa Sticks
Lantana Flower Essence
For a long time now I have been playing with the idea of making a set of flower essences based on the plants in the Wildcraft book. I have been working intensively with these plants for over 10 years now so have developed a strong relationship with them. However the timing has never felt right. Last week someone reached out to me to ask me if I could make them a Lantana essence for protection while travelling.
I agreed and when the day was right I made my first ‘Wildcraft Essence’. I wasn’t planning on it but I guess the time was right and it all happened very naturally.
I am always so in awe of the beauty of Lantana. It is SOOOO loving and nurturing. A mixture of childlike wonder and fierce protection. The beauty can be seen in the flowers, the sweetness can be tasted by sucking the nectar from the flowers, the protection can be felt in prickles on the stems. The way it grows around your property forming a thick impenetrable shield. Its all there in the physical form of the plant.
I have always wanted to test the effects of this plant on electromagnetic radiation as I intuitively feel it is protective, but would love to test this. So if anyone has a machine that tests for EMFs and access to lantana I would love to do experiments or hear of yours!
It also offers psychic protection when in situations with large crowds, or overwhelming spaces such as airports or shopping centres. It can also be used as a space clearing essence when you need to clear a room in your house after an unpleasant person or interaction has been in there.
For this particular essence I was inspired to use rose quarts as well, to amplify the love frequency and open the heart. Rose quartz helps to restore trust and harmony in relationships and encourage unconditional love. Promoting love for others, self-love, friendship, deep healing and peace and comfort in times of grief, trauma or stressful situations or relationships.
During the making of this particular essence I did something I have never done before which was to include a number in the making of it. My intuition told me to use a number, so I muscle tested which one and came up with ‘33’. I then was guided to impart this frequency by stirring the rose quarts crystal 33 times in a clockwise direction, then 33 times in an anticlockwise direction.
The number 33 creates harmony, helps with caring for others and creates unity. It promotes self awareness, connection to creativity and creative solutions and helps us see things in a new light.
The combination of these things has created an essence that is radiating so much love and peace. It can be used in the following ways
Protection during travel
Protection in crowds
Protection and healing when there is disharmony with someone you have to work with
Protection and healing when there is disharmony with a friend or family member
Protection and healing during stressful or traumatic events
Protection and healing when you are afraid
I have a nice big bottle of Mother essence now so if you would like some of this essence message me via email at heidi_merika@hotmail.com with the heading ‘Lantana Essence’. They are $20 each and $10 postage anywhere in Australia.
