Asarum (wild ginger)

Mood Swings. Asarum is very unstable.

The mood swing appears to be between a light, floating and euphoric state, which is almost like flying and a state of oversensitivty,where everything grates on the nerves.

The euphoria almost feels like a spiritual trance, and there is a desire for genuine understanding, coming from the feeling that the state is too etherial. The sadness comes with a state of fragility, prostration and despair. There is not enough energy to bring anything to completion.

Rubrics:

Exhilaration. [Delusions, floating, walking, while.]
[Euphoria, alt. quietness, desire for.]

Prostration. [Loathing, general. Aversion, everything, to.]
[Succeeds, never.] [Light, desire for.]

Piper Methysticum (Kava) Boericke

Life could be such a bore without entertainment! The drink produces talkative and euphoric behaviour, followed by restful sleep. A stronger drink sends you to sleep! When do we feel bored?? Could it be when we are stuck in a rut? With only one inevitable outcome life becomes one dimensional.

Discussion

There are several Leprous Rx in the plant kingdom [lact, led, aloe, cic, cur, grat, hura]. How do you differentiate between these?

Rajan uses the sensation. Paul Herscu uses a closely related idea - psychosomatic segments. A segment is a conceptual representation of part of a remedy picture that pervades both the menatal/emotional sphere and the generalities. Combine this with Rajan's thinking and you have a chair with three (or more!) legs.

Farrington: The members of this family contain an acrid principle which is usually a milky fluid, when it escapes from the plant it dries into a gum. On contact with the skin it produces redness and then vesicles. This milky sap is poisonous in the Euphorbioideae, innocuous in the Crotonoideae (Wikipedia).

In Richards prooving there was depression and irritability. Depressed, hopeless, sad, inertia, sluggishness vs. Easy going and buoyant There were dreams that remind us of Mancinella, another Euphorbian spp, such as delusions of seeing a devil or being taken by the devil.

Cucurbitaceae (gourd family)

spp/Rx: [Bry. Elat. Coloc. Luffa.]

Farrington: Of the medicinal substances obtained from this order we may say that they all the act prominently on the alimentary tract. They seem to have in common a cathartic action. They probably act paralyzingly on the vaso-motor nerves of the abdomen. They produce gripping pains, gushing watery diarrhoea.

Family Sensations of: spasms: cramping, clutching.
Theme: Stasis. Anger.

Cucurbita, Cuc-c (Watermelon).

An extreemly irritatable and even violent state, despite a lack of energy (compare with the rage of Bry).

He is so depressed that he desires death.
Sensations: Internal heat (with perspiration.)
Therapeutics: Colds, Suppurations.

Bryonia (Wild hops) Boericke

Farrington: We find Bryonia indicated first of all in changes in the blood; in changes affecting its quantity, its quality and its circulation. For example, its indicated in febrile conditions; in fevers of an intermitting type, and also in rheumatic gastric, bilious, traumatic and typhoid fevers, in all of which, gastric symptoms are prominent.

Symptoms develop slowly. The main action is on parts which have to do with motion. It inflames membranes such as the pleura, the menininges, tendons and connective tissue causing sharp stabbing pains. The membranes become dry and you feel extremely thirsty.

Image: The dryness of Bryonia is seen in his personality, the free flow of emotions is blocked and repressed. He is usually pragmatic, down-to-earth, hard working and independant. They are not much fun, and without much loving response they are often loners. They never joke, "life is a serious matter". They are often Security Gaurds .... their insecurities are a big issue and make them feel quite vunerable.

Reconstruction of Bryonia from rubrics:
The mind is so dull and slow, in stasis (liverish), that any disturbance is avoided, standing, being touched or motion, cause so much suffering that the point of rage is easily reached.

Irritability, wishes to be alone on waking
Fear, suffering of, chooses the lesser evil

There is an insecure feeling ... of being lost and homesick, which manifests as clinging.

Clinging, want of self-confidence

It can manifest as avarice (ungrateful, avarice from) when there is anxiety and insecurity about the future, business (delerium business is doing), health, or even life itself (Death, presentiment of). The fear of poverty is way out of proportion.

All these fears add up to a strong sense of persecution in the remedy

Delusions, soliders, sees > flight, as if persued > escape, attempts to.

The anxiety, a subconcious search for security. They worry about their financial situation (they become materialistic), "Fear of poverty". Often businessmen and stock brokers, "economic man". Possessions are very important, they get a sense of well-being from collecting things. To the "carpet slipper brigade" home represents the only safe haven (Delusions, injury, injured, is being.) The only place where he won't be disturbed,

Delusions, home, away from, must get there.

The plant itself tries to cling onto a safe position.
Theme: Stiffness of mind &am; rigid ideas.
Sensations: Cannot or will not, move. Stinging pains.
Therapeutics: Dry spasmodic cough. Rheumatic pains that come on slowly. Bruising headache with stabbing behind eyes and sensitivity to motion (even moving the eyes). Miasm: Typhoid

Elaterium (Squirting cucumber)

Rubrics: Fear of disaster. Homesick, Sad, Depressed.
Therapeutics: Urticaria. Explosive diarrhoea.

Colocynthis (Vine of Sodom)

Farrington: Like the other members of this group, Colocynthis causes violent intestinal irritation, first of watery evacuations and later of mucus and blood. The pains are atrocious; griping, cutting, etc. The drug also affects the nervous system powerfully, whence comes its beneficial effects in the treatment of neuralgia.

Image: Male Staphy! Feels vexed and unfortunate. There is great pain.

Ailments from Anger > silent grief, with > from business failure > from embarrassment > from indignation. > from scorn.

Anger is swallowed and suppressed - felt in gut ("gutted"). Emotions come out with the pain, great anger and anguish.

Indignant. Speechless with rage. > Beside, oneself, being. > Anguish.

Upset by trifles, even friends irritate, but she needs comfort and someone to see to he wishes, so being alone is not right either - so she is capricious!

Company, aversion, friends of intimate. > Carried, desires to be. > Company, desire for, aversion to solitude. > Capriciousness.

Therapeutics: Colic, pains cramping and clutching. Anger can bring on the pain. Ovaries.
Miasm: Malaria

Types of diarrhea:
Fast transit: Watery stool has passed through the GI tract too quickly.
Osmotic: Some foods may cause water to remain in the intestine due to osmosis.
Secretory: Toxins produced in cholera cause the intestine to secrete salts.
Inflammatory: In Inflammatory diarrhea the lining of the intestine is inflamed or ulcerated and releases proteins, blood and mucous. E.g. in ulcerative colitis, Chron's, and Tb.
If the rectum is inflamed it is more sensitive to expansion, so there will be more urging.

Digitalis Excerpt from Farrington: Digitalis produces, very early in the proving or in poisoning cases, among other symptoms, the most distressing nausea and vomiting. This emesis is often accompanied by a deathly faint, sinking sensation at the pit of the Stomach. The surface of the body is often cold, and sometimes covered with cold sweat. The pulse is irregular. It may be of use where the meninges are inflamed or in the nausea and vomiting of pregnancy. Digitalis causes irritation of the pneumogastric nerves - we have inhibition of the heart's action. As a consequence of the effect on the vaso-motor center, the pulse becomes slow and arterial tension is increased. Its affect on the muscles causes weakness, or even paralysis, of the cardiac tissues so that the slightest exertion increases the rapidity of the pulse.

Aethusa (Fools parsley)

An outstanding symptom of the Aethusa state is love of animals. According to Vithoulkas the state is reserved and self-contained, which continues the families theme of estrangement.

As Wendy Howard suggests this estrangement is specifically directed to other humans; they feel apart from the human race. It is as if their hold on their higher mental faculties is fragile, and subsequently find it easier to identify with animals.

Remarkably, the remedies' "sensations as if" picture (e.g. back pain amel. stretching) makes sense if we compare the sensations to those of the evolutionary transition to bipedal locomotion (ontology recapitulates phylogeny).

This irritability is likely to be shown toward individuals about the house toward the husband and the mother; she is yet able to control herself among strangers and the doctor may not be able to find out about it because she has in her nature a disposition to cheat; she wants to be alone and takes upon herself fixed ideas that she is pregnant or that an animal is in her bowels she feels the motion of a child's arm thinks she is followed or that someone is walking beside her thinks that soul and body are separated.

Now these are fixed ideas and there is no use trying to reason them out of her. It seems to her that she is very delicate that she is made of glass and that she will break. The idea is that she will break and not that she is transparent.
