Spider Milkweed Flower Elixir
Spider Milkweed grows in the Southwest and is food for caterpillars. Like other milkweeds, it contains toxic substances that ultimately make the butterflies poisonous to predators. Its flower essence dissolves our tendency to feel responsible for others’ suffering – and alchemizes anger, rage & internal conflict. Rather than isolating, avoiding or burying emotion, it integrates our fragmented pieces into wholeness. We can see all sides of the complex story without judgment.MAGNIFIES: Alchemy of repressed or buried emotions; Making friends with inner demons, i.e. the negative thought swirl; Inward vulnerability & fearlessness; Wholeness & integration; Willingness to see what's evil in the world DISSOLVES: Repressed anger, isolation or self-hatred; Fighting/avoiding inner demons, aka your shadow; Sense of responsibility for others’ suffering; Fragmented parts of yourself; Wanting to remain numb, naive or ‘pollyanna’
