Yarrow Flower Essence with Herbalist Amanda Furbee
Amanda FurbeeShare
In 2020, I would like to explore flower essences with you. This very gentle, but powerful medicine is taken in small doses, otherwise known as micro-dosing. Each month we will take a deeper look at one plant and how it might be beneficial to you.
The beauty of flower essence is that it works by enhancing and working with the energetic body. Flower essences are subtle energetic medicine to help and shift whatever energy you are working on, by embracing the spirit of each individual plant. I know that I am constantly trying to evolve and breakdown the layers of life to be a more well-rounded and grounded person. At times, the older we become, the muddier it gets to try and remember the core essence of our beings. Our emotions often rule our whole life. Whether or not we want to admit it, our mood can make or break a day or moment in time.
Yarrow for protection! This delicate cluster of flowers comes in shades of white, pink and yellow. The leaves are very feathery and Yarrow has a tall stalk that holds up the umbrella cluster of flowers. It grows in most hemispheres, and has been used for centuries for protection. Protection in your home, against energies that are overpowering or leaking into your own, and psychic attack from others beings. The latin name of Yarrow is Achillea millefolium, and is often referred to as the flower that Achilles has a relationship to for protecting his one vulnerable spot.
In my early days of using Yarrow Flower Essence, I found that it was amazing for helping me set up protective boundaries. Especially folks that I felt were unsafe, leaching onto my own energy slowly sucking the life out of me, and in the event that I was receiving ill intentions from other beings. The first few drops felt as if a white light of protection began to surround me and my intentions. Being a very sensitive person to others energies, there have been times that I felt like I was holding the weight of the World within my hands. It was heavy! It drained me of all my life force and knocked me down to a place of being almost comatose. I was so grateful to have found an ally in Yarrow.
If you find that you need protection in your life, you may want to give Yarrow a try. You can take a few drops of this under your tongue, place on your pulse point or chakras, or put a few drops in a spray bottle to use on your body or in your home. Growing Yarrow at your home can be beneficial to help set up boundaries in your space.
Yarrow can be helpful in these situations:
