0.1.8 Plant theory UseThis book can be used in many ways. The first is to get an understanding of the Plant kingdom and its classification. I have used the name
Plant theory for the classification presented in this book. The
Plant theory also provides an understanding of the plants from the essences of
Series,
Stages and
Phases as has been published in “
Homeopathy and the Elements” and “Secret
Lanthanides”. The
Plant theory makes the connection with those essences and concepts, bringing a unity in the homeopathic theory. It gives a deeper understanding of plant remedies.
Getting accustomedTo get accustomed with the
Plant theory one has to understand and learn the
Series and
Stages as presented in “
Homeopathy and the Elements” and also in this book. The
Phases are a new expression. Essentially the
Phases are the same as the
Stages but then only 8 instead of 18.
Phases can be best learned from the Carbon and
Silicon series as they have very much in common with the remedies in those 2
Series. For example,
Phase 1 looks very much like
Lithium and Natrum,
Phase 3 looks very much like
Boron and
Aluminium.
Understanding the numbering system makes it easy to understand the Families and
Stages. The numbers are a short notation for which
Series,
Phases and
Stages are present.
PredictionThe
Plant theory makes it possible to predict remedy pictures of plants. The picture of the family that the plant belongs to is applicable to that plant. The Stage is not predictable with the plant theory and has to be ascertained in each case individually.
AnalysisCases of patients can be analysed directly according to the
Plant theory when the essence is clear and the problem is understood. This makes straightforward prescribing possible. The case taking becomes problem analysis instead of symptom gathering.
FiltersThe
Plant theory can also be used partially, for instance in cases where the problem is unclear. A good method is to use the
Plant theory as a kind of filter for the case, for a repertorisation or
Materia medica search.
Examples are:
Including
Lanthanides: Asteridae.
Excluding
Lanthanides: all, except Asteridae.
Including
Silver series:
Malvidae and
Lamiidae.
Iron series indicated:
Fabidae,
Myrtidae,
Ericidae.
Carbon series mostly indicated:
Magnoliidae.
Phase 3 indicated:
Pandanales,
Malvales,
Boraginales,
Campanulales and others.
