Homeopathy was always about seeing beyond the surface. After all we try to understand underlying causes and patterns in those who seek our help. We learn from experience that this gives the best and most consistent healing results. Of course this understanding doesn’t come to us over night. It has to be worked at and tested in the vessel of real results with real people.
So it helps to know and feel we’re practicing an art with deep roots. Roots that stretch back to ways of seeing found in a pre-scientific age, and that can be traced through alchemy and the vitalist understanding of life and suffering.
This understanding of how immaterial reality can show up in our everyday-world and work its healing magic comes to fruition with Hahnemann’s articulation of healing laws at the dawn of the modern scientific age.
This book traces the development of this archetypal understanding coupled with completely practical healing protocols, through J.T. Kent and on into the current era of homeopathy with its greater appreciation of the big patterns working through human beings in wellness and suffering. We see a development from the raw data of provings to the development of miasmatic theory to the knowledge of the patterns found in taxonomic classes.
To do well and be stable in ourselves and our practice it helps to put down deep roots and to know that we’re part of a tree with still deeper roots as well as branches that reach into the beyond.
