Gorse - Furze Botanical Vibrational Essence Drops

These drops are akin to what many will know as "flower essences" or "bach flower/Australian Bush Flower essences".
 
Renée has a huge and growing range of many different ones crafted from flowers, trees and weeds that she calls Botanical Vibrational Essence Drops, that she is slowely adding to the apothecary.
 
Gorse or Furze - Ulex Europaeus, evergreen thorny and deeply ancestral medicine for those of us with Celtic lineage,  thought to be deeply connected the faerie folk guarding the entrance to the otherworld, therefore sacred or cursed depending on your belief. All thorny plants, like blackberry and Hawthorn was said to belong to the realm of the fae, it's interesting that they often grown along the hedgerows at the start of forests or paddocks, like a protective gateway
 
When opened by the element of fire, it allows rapid regeneration after burning to ash. Like a spagyric alchemical medicine restoring healing powers and energy back to the land.
 
Beltane bonfires were fuelled by the sacred gorse in ancient Celtic tradition, as well as a it being used traditionally as fire fuel. 
 
In respect to its yellow flowers, the people of the ancient land of the Celts associated the gorse tree to the symbol of the god of light.
 
The primary meaning of the gorse tree is its power to make us look deeper into ourselves. Since the gorse tree usually hurdles up in one place it is then trying to teach us we need our community to exist.
 
Helps ease hopelessness.
 
 It teaches us about embodying the polarity of opposites ~  good & bad, healing & wounding, nurturing & dominating, fierce & protecting. 
 
it reminds us of the biodiversity of live & death, that everything has its place.
 
It teaches us about paying attention and taking care, with patience we will be rewarded.
 
Brings inner light into one who is drained of life, those who walk the path of the living dead.
 
It teachers us to call forward the way of the pioneer women, who managed to always find strength in the continual climate of life’s unfurling hardship. 
 
Helps one attune to life with terminal illness, for yourself or someone you care for. 
 
Can help us summon its spirit during the dark times in life. It will give you the power to maintain your focus on only what is important in your life at such hard times.
 
It may give hope to the weary of heart and the disillusioned.
 
It teaches us the meaning of constancy & steadfastness. 
 
Offers the energy of protection both of body & mind. 
 
Connects into the animal totem of bees: teaching us about mutually respective relationships, & community.
 
Connects to the animal totem of spider:  the primordial weaver, teaching us of the power that exists in our own thoughts & how that creates our reality.
 
 
Druids, deep-thinkers as they were they analysed the gorse intently and concluded that it was a ravenous seeker of light, thus making it an opportunist.
This is something that natural symbolism speaks of to us quite frequently. Seeds from the gorse can be observed, separating from the parent plant and distancing themselves significantly.
 
They do this to begin a new colony and give it the best chances of survival. Thus, preventing it from being overshadowed by the larger and overbearing parent plant ~ so teachers us about independence & free thinking separate from our family’s ideology. 
 
I also see how gorse has an affinity to connective tissue and fascia, that holding space matrix of the body, at least energetically, almost acting like an astringent, suspending energy in its own weave, so it doesn’t spill out everywhere, and anywhere.
 
I also feel gorse’s uses in tonics for the kidneys, liver and spleen,  and laying of the fresh plant on the solar plexus to assist imbalances that exist there. 
 
A plant of the fire, who sent smells like coconut and marzipan, who calls in the energy of the east, the rising sun, and the hawk presents in the bird tribes.
 
How to interact with Kin of the Fiàin Danú Earth Wisdom Botanical Vibrational Essence Drops
 
Use intuitively, you can take 1-15 drops up to 3x per day as needed.
 
Each time you interact with the drops, first take the bottle in your hands, up to your heart, and take a moment to wake up and invite the plant tree or fungi spirit you are working with in the form of the drops to be acknowledged, welcomed and meet with love and gratitude. 
 
You can also read the document that will be sent with the purchase about its offerings, then choose some of the specific words that resonate with you and hold them in your mind’s eye and heart. 
 
You can also hold the image of the plant in your mind, there are photos included on the document for you to easily use for this imprint when you desire too. 
 
When it feels appropriate, usually on the medicines arrival and then maybe a few times whilst working with the specific plant, take the bottle to your lips and share a breath and a prayer to create a deeper connection to the plant spirit though your intent, desires on working with the plant spirit and to share your own personal signature frequency. 
 
It’s helpful to notice and observe subtle changes when working with the plant, maybe take notes or journal. 
 
Watch for synchronicities and alignments around the plant and its offerings showing up in your personal reality. 
 
Drops of essence can be added to a glass of water, pulse points, acupuncture points, and even to a bath to charge the water with the essence’s healing frequency. They can also be used to anoint landscapes, spaces, and objects.
