Cadmium- Scholten
Posted: Fri Mar 27, 2009 1:17 pm
REMEDY NAME:Cadmium
Cadmium metallicum is not mentioned in any of the old homoeopathic books.
Julian (1979) and Stephenson (1986) have written a report on a proving, Dam
told me he has done a proving and Shah has shown a Cadmium case once.
The name is derived from the Greek word 'kadmia', meaning earth. Cadmea
used to be another name for Zincoxide. It was discovered in 1817.
Cadmium is usually found in combination with Zinc. Its capacity to absorb
neutrons is very high. It is a component in nickel-cadmium batteries and in
colouring agents, in the form of bright yellow or bright red
cadmiumsulphide. It is also used in telephone and tram cables. Asteria
rubens, Cannabis sativa and Tabacum contain high amounts of Cadmium.

Exaggerated success
They have been very successful in the past and they still have high
expectations of themselves. They want to be able to continue in the same
way, because they couldn't bear going downhill. It can make them extremely
arrogant, acting as if they are very important and know it all.
A variation on this theme is that they may be far ahead of their times.
They create all sort of things that nobody can understand or appreciate.
Exaggerated ideas:stubborn
Their ideas are a bit past it, they are very stubborn and conservative and
refuse to accept anything from anyone. People should realise that they know
best, haven't they proved that they know everything?
Another variation is that they lose themselves in all sorts of creative
ideas. They can't keep up with themselves and scatter their energies in a
thousand and one projects. A typical symptom is that they often make
mistakes in time or place, e.g. they end up in the wrong room, they arrive
an hour too early, they misplace objects and can't find them again etc.
Overdoing art:artificial
They tend to exaggerate a lot because they are too caught up in their
success. Their behaviour becomes a bit too dramatic, theatrical, or even
quite bizarre. They want to translate everything into art, so that the
whole thing becomes unnatural and artificial. Or they may pretend that they
are nobody special and do their best to remain incognito, which is equally
artificial because there is no reason for it.
Repeating art:forgeries
They have produced everything they could and now they have nothing more to
give. There is no more inspiration, no new projects they can think of. All
they can do is repeat what they have made in the past, but the spirit has
gone, it is only more of the same.
Making a reproduction of a famous work of art is a legal way of repeating
something that was unique. The illegal way is producing a forgery.
Decay or pollution of the arts
If they carry on producing more and more of the same it is as if they are
polluting the beauty of the original. It becomes empty and meaningless. It
is like the scientist who has to publish a paper every year in order to
remain eligible for a state subsidy, but he has nothing new to offer, so he
changes his old reports a bit here and there, hoping people won't notice
that it is the same old stuff. This is how scientific literature often gets
clogged up with meaningless drivel. One can't see the wood for the trees.
Enemies of the arts
They develop the feeling that many people are against them. The art critics
will start to criticise their work as being old and boring, the director of
the theatre wants to cancel the show because the public is tired of the
same old performance. The mecenas will withdraw his support. Or the
assistant manager will lose the support of his manager, all of which makes
them feel powerless. It is as if everyone turns against them and even their
supporters cannot be trusted in case they dare to give adverse comments.
And so they feel unappreciated, betrayed and abandoned, the world is their
enemy, everyone wants to steal his ideas and take the credit for it.
It can also happen that they are enemies of the art themselves, by only
wanting to reproduce the originals. Their stubbornness and suspicion
creates hostility wherever they go and so they fulfil their own prophesy
that the whole world is their enemy.
Expecting to be criticised whatever the occasion they are always ready with
a sharp answer even before anyone has said a word. And of course they are
always ready to criticise others, because it is a good way of diverting the
attention away from themselves. They practice the age old 'divide and rule'
tactic.
The situation is similar to the one Vincent van Gogh found himself in:
nobody wanted to acknowledge his art and he felt betrayed by the whole
world. He even fell out with his fellow artists. Only his brother made a
supreme effort and managed to stay on speaking terms with him. Later on
Vincent cut off his own ear (Silver series!) and eventually committed
suicide. The bright colours in his paintings remind us of the bright yellow
and red cadmium colours.
Similia for Windows '95.
Decay of the arts
They have nothing more to give, it is all finished. The only possibility to
continue is by artificial means, but there is really no point. There are
other artists who have got something new to offer. They can't keep up with
the competition. Typical of this stage are the slow, retarded movements,
they literally can't move with the times.
The high flying performer slows down, misses the mark and crashes (Dam,
proving).
Loss of influence:powerless
They can't defend themselves and they feel overwhelmed by their enemies,
overwhelmed by the circumstances. They become the slave of a bureaucratic
force that leaves them powerless. They have been misled by dirty tricks and
false information. And whatever they say, nobody is listening. They are no
longer able to say anything that might attract the attention. They are
locked up in their old patterns and overtaken by a powerful force that
leaves them utterly defenceless.
Loss of honour through overdoing it
Once they can't live up to the expectations anymore they tend to collapse
in a depression. They can no longer concentrate on what they were doing and
become depressed and suspicious. It is as if they have lost all sense of
honour and respect and because of this they secretly brood on revenge.
Top sportsman
This is the stage of the sportsman who has won the first prize several
times but now feels he hasn't got the energy anymore to have another go. He
has won the Wimbledon title twice, but in the meantime there are some
younger players who have gained much experience and who are bound to beat
him in the finals this time. Once they know they are about to lose they may
become very angry, fighting with the linesman, querying every decisionof
the referee. In fact they are angry with themselves and the mistakes they
are making. Another way out is by turning the event into a comedy, making
theatrical gestures and throwing themselves on the ground after every lost
point.
Fears:heights, narrow spaces, performances, speeches, dark, threatening;
easily frightened company; shameless.
