Parnassia palustris
Openness
In the Ancient Greek pharmacopeia of the physician Dioscorides, widely read for more than 1500 years, he describes the medicinal properties of this plant, growing on Mount Parnassus, home of Apollo and the Muses.
Grass of Parnassus speaks to the soul whose heart is sensitive and vulnerable.
Vulnerability is a doorway to open to love, and this flower teaches to you to “love like you’ve never been hurt”. Real happiness comes when you give your love, and yourself, openly and freely.
A small child possesses the innate ability to spread loving kindness wherever it goes and to whomever it meets. When it is hurt it, it cries, and crying is a powerful tool for healing. But as we grow up we learn to avoid getting hurt, and to avoid crying, especially in public, which impedes the natural healing process.
You are put on guard and hold on to strategies designed to stop negative emotions from harming you. You try to protect yourself by containing experiences of pain and trauma, choosing to forget them until a time when you feel safe enough to heal. Suppression of feelings leads to emotional blockages while pushing the pain deeper inside.
Grass of Parnassus flower essence opens the heart to the healing power of love.
When you have the courage to open your heart, to be more open and trusting, you radiate warm love and are sensitive to love in return.
Open the heart to healing. Let down your barriers and release your fear. Restore your faith in the healing power of love.
