facets regarding Silicea. One is the 'yielding' aspect - Silicea
absorbs, takes in, takes on board, gathers together on all levels,
physical, mental and emotional - pus formation and suppuration, mental
acuteness, sensitive - and is happy enough to do that absorbing as long
as it can yield and bend, go with the flow and release again. But we
know that as this develops into something deeper and more pathological,
when Silicea cannot yield then it 'repels' instead. One of the best rx
for removing foreign bodies. So it is a system of accumulation and then
repelling if it cannot fully absorb = imperfect assimilation, which is
one of the main keynotes of Silicea.
This 'attraction' to electricity and magnetic forces is often thought
to be connected to Phosphorus but I think it is more general to many of
the tubercular rx and this includes Silicea. Maybe it is also the
de-mineralised state of Silicea that allows this to happen in the first
place.
Silicea is also extremely sensitive to stimuli. I also think that due
to the absorptive properties of Silicea that water is a vital component
and water is dangerously inimical to anything electrical. "The cells
are thereby enabled to throw off inimical substances." So it would seem
that wheelchairs are to sheds as electricity is to termites
