VANILLA PROVING
VANILLA PLANIFOLIA: Orchid family. Over 30,000 species of orchids on earth. Very little researched. 90% of all orchids live on trees.
Interesting aspect of proving is provers all thought they were proving some intense animal remedy.
In Mexico, where vanilla is natural, pollination is provided by a specialized bee, that doesn't exist in Madagascar - so in Madascar the plants are pollinated by hand. Bees and bee stings (real ones) were part of the proving - the provers attracted bees who bit them.
Some orchids look so much like the sex organs of specific insects that the male insects mate with the orchid, pollinating it, and getting nothing from the effort.
Vanilla is a parasite as a baby plant, but stops being parasitic when it grows up.
TO READ A PROVING - LOOK FOR THE ANOMALIES, THE THINGS YOU'VE NEVER SEEN IN ANY OTHER REMEDY.
Anomalous features of proving:
Time passing quickly or slowly WITH NO ANXIETY ABOUT BEING ON TIME. Singing in the shower, in the bathroom. Tea towels and dishrags come up as a theme -- bathrooms, kitchens. Food - grazing on quick foods, no time to actually prepare a meal - enjoying the sensuality of the food. Having hours of free time. Languid enjoyment of life. Issues about food - either enjoying eating or not having time to eat. Enjoying cooking and dinner parties.
Bee stings with emotional agitation, petulance. Scolding, barking orders.
Perfectionism in the material world. Want beautiful, fine things. Wanting to shop and spend a lot of money.
Sensual experiences are enchanting. Or make no impact.
(Lou Klein: Orchids good remedy for anorexia or overeating.).
Being productive, happy, energetic or opposite: lack of focus with laziness - but it's really sensuality, enjoying the moment.
Idea of having to repel evil spirits - wearing charms of various kinds.
Absentmindedness.
Reliving the past - eating foods from the past.
Anticipation.
Delusions eyes with cataracts.
Feeling as if pregnant. (Lilies and orchids resemble each other).
Presence of someone or something touching or crowding. Caressing. Orchids like being crowded - won't grow in a large pot.
Uncoordination.
Lower extremities and brain. Losing way. No sense of direction.
Cancer miasm: want to reorganize, clean out, everything has to be perfect, spotless. Desire for order and tidiness. Scurrying. Seeing all kinds of things that need to be done, but doing nothing.
Like Martha Stuart show - everything processed meticulously but ends up looking the same as everything else - "very vanilla." Make things the same - undifferentiation - cancer. Strong cancer remedy.
Issues about talking and communicating.
Colors blue and orange come up strongly. Clothing, stool.
No tomorrow --- eat as much as you can.
Making connections across eons.
Sad and lonely, desire to be alone and not communicate.
Losing track of things, having things stolen, finding money, receiving money.
Redundant reiteration - repeating words and phrases.
Poems, meditations.
Dreams old boyfriends, male genitalia.
Dreams food, parties, dying at party.
Dreams about men in their childhood.
Dreams about shopping and clothing - exquisite clothing - everything has to be exquisite.
Dreams about stealing cars. Wanting material possessions very badly.
Dreams of animals: wolves, mice.
Dreams graveyards, corpses.
Dreams being tempted by the devil (very characteristic of this remedy).
Dreams people with no faces. (very cancerous - no distinguishing features. Comp brass)
Tumors on foot - lot in physical sx about plantar fasciitis, shoes.
Lots of headaches, sore eyes, circles under eyes. Belching, nausea. Diarrhea. Menses problematic. Chest very tight, lower back tight.
Strong craving for nuts.
Hypotensive after hot bath.
Cystitis, hypertension,.
Joint pains << rain coming on.
Color blindness.
Sinusitis.
Head sensation as if enlarged.
Achilles tendonitis. Neck pain from ear to shoulder.
Numbness, motor problems, dropping things.
Lack of focus - not able to multi-task.
Nausea.
Hormonal remedy - menopause, pregnancy. Menstrual problems.
Nosebleeds.
Pituitary problems.
Fungal eruptions.
Thyroid problems.

Do either of you know that all of Lou's provings are on his web site ? It's homeopathycourses.com , lots o great stuff on it.

[Rochelle]

Thanks Sue, but give me a synopsis any day!!!!! >:-) No time to be reading long provings unless I think a Rx from the Rep is needed for a patient.
BTW - they are not all of his provings as the one of his I was really interesting in at a seminar was Yersinia Pestis (and Yersinia E )

It has one of my favorite proving quotations: "The purchase of dishcloths fills me with excitement."

This made me laugh! When my husband and I were first married, I was thrilled to pick out our first dishclothes and then very upset when my husband was less than enthusiastic. When I expressed my disappointment, my husband's response was, "Honey, they're dishtowels. I'm sorry but I can't get all that excited about dishtowels." We laugh about it now.
Perhaps I should look at homeopathic Vanilla!
