This essence is all about awareness over effort. It is for those who are unable to function in society due to overwhelming emotion; for those who are depressed, and have a fear of illness. It helps to hold the essence when you are so low in energy that you can’t think or speak or even seem to feel. It helps to wear the remedy when you feel like you are losing your mind, losing grounding within one’s soul being. It helps those who are stagnant, who are stuck and have no flow, having lost one’s sparkle. It is for people who cannot be inside, who need to be outdoors in nature. It is also for those who feel like they can’t get clean which is generally linked to parasites in the system. It is for when you are feeling really full and have a desire to be alone. The world is too much to bear sometimes for light beings. There is a deep chest pain with this heartache.

There is a deep shift to the feminine with the essence, a profound clearing of the patriarchal energy and a standing in ones own power. The darker side of the feminine, the dark moon, the womb energy, the transformation in our bodies and breath. This is a potent mystical force that is not to be feared.

This essence is about the foundations of your roots, the body. Grounding nourishment and trust within one self. It can help one to be confortable in their body and to feel safe and secure. There is a stability that emerges from wearing the essence.

“The well rises from a powerful and fast-flowing spring, and it’s water is said to have healing properties with cures for both eyesight and madness. The origins of the ‘madness’ cure may has something to do with Maeve the Goddess of Knocknarea, whose name means ‘The Intoxicating One’, or possibly the legends of Sweeney the Mad King who is associated with the Cailleach at Sliabh Dá Eán to the south.”

Inherited traumas are helped to release and a reconnection with the physical body comes through, touch and a connection to oneself through gentle movement such as yoga.
Reclaiming the right to be here, in our bodies and recognizing what a gift from spirit this is.

There can be a fear of being out of control, to change, to manipulate to have it our way and to fix,this can also appear as one being manipulated , constantly giving in, following others and being the victim. Fear or paranoia can cause the chi to descend, resulting in kidney and lower back issues where emotions are ever present.

It helps one to be immersed in abundance and love ones body with trust and wisdom.

Equinoxes occur when the sun crosses the celestial equator in its seasonal migration. This occurs twice a year. The Vernal equinox is in late March and the Autumnal one is in late September. This essence has been made from waters of both equinoxes. A balance of dark and light. This essence is deeply linked to the Dobharchu story and the darkness we can feel around death and depression. There is a transformation within this remedy however almost like a shapeshifter. One must be wary of the darkness that balances our light but we cannot be light without the dark. This essence helps with the inner transformation and shift of the darkness into light. It can help to lift the grief for lost places of your past, a place that you cannot return to, a place that perhaps never was. These waters historic experiences and private stories of loss are held within the valley. Through this essence, there is a transcendence of physical and mental barriers and limitations that resonates with the past and gently evokes the future. It brings new meaning to a place that would have become stagnated in inertia. These remembered local landscapes, the waters, are the messengers of the excluded and perhaps the forgotten. This essence brings a hope for a better tomorrow, transferred through this process of serial dilution to release aspects of space and time.
