Wild Bay Rose Flower Essence
Wild Bay Rose (Rosa rugosa)
Made on a summer evening in 2014 while the sun was setting & tide was coming in on the shores of Penobscot Bay in Maine. Wild Bay Rose is for laying some love atop ourselves; for quelling self-frustration; for allowing ourselves to feel as opposed to questioning, reasoning with, or trying to intellectualize our emotions. This essence reminds us that if we allow ourselves to sit with & sink into our feelings, we can be washed over & refreshed by them, receive wisdom from them, & that they can quench our thirst. It reminds us not to forget about our feelings. This essence also contains bay water that had sprayed into the essence making process, & has the energy of the incoming tide, the expansive flow of salt water that fills the shore. This essence is heart medicine & it viscerally reminds us that with every contraction comes an expansion, with every loss comes a gain, that these are the natural rhythms of the world. Thus, it helps us act from a place of love versus one of fear & can soothe & restore acute & long-term states of grief, strife, anxiety, uncertainty, or loss.
This essence will arrive to you in a blue glass bottle, the size: 3 drams (10 mL), with a description card.
Please note:
Flower essences are not perfumes. They are water-based medicines which contain the memory/energy of a specific plant, stone, or enviroment.
My essences contain equal parts water and brandy, please leave me a note if you prefer a vinegar-based option.
