Although the Cooktown Orchid was prepared in March I was asked to place it in the moonlight of the August full moon before it could reach its full potential. The full moon energies activated a balance of the Divine Feminine energies of Isis (the Great Mother) and the Divine Masculine energies (the Sun) of Osiris. These energies represent a perfect balance of passion and creativity . The remedy was out during a Blood-moon Lunar Eclipse, which provided aspects of these very special energies.
Cooktown Orchid softens brash attitudes and fixed ideas and is especially applicable for our inner male aspects which may find it difficult to connect with the softer side of our nature. This essence engenders a gentle masculine energy that is clear, supportive, loving, strong and responsible. It works with the heart energies, allowing feelings of calm serenity to overstep the need for remaining emotionally courageous or protective.
The true language of the heart is unconditional Love, Compassion and Gratitude, and it is possible to express anger with compassion and love, and without the destructive force of unmediated emotion. With the heart of a "crusty", protective shell can be found pure beauty, softness and peace within a person, and the Cooktown Orchid essence will assist with the transformation to a softer, new way of masculinity.
Our Earth Mother's energy also provides support, nurturing and sustenance embraced in love, with this essence. She wants us to know that you are perfect as you are and that everything about you is beautiful and special.
The Cooktown Orchid is for calming and assisting in the renewal process. Such is that the cellular structure of the body is changing to become more crystaline in nature. It would be advisable, whilst taking this essence to rest the body and take time out occasionally to regain composure so as to ease the transformations taking place.
The doctrine of signatures of this flower is mainly seen in its soft texture. The petals are a vibrant violet colour with indigo at its heart centre. This heart centre has a particularly velvety soft texture and to me looks a little like a man's bearded mouth, which I imagine would speak soft words of encouragement and gentleness.
