Scarlet Monkeyflower
Positive Qualities: Emotional honesty, direct and clear communication of deep feelings, integration of the emotional “shadow”
Patterns of Imbalance: Fear of intense feelings, repression of strong emotions; inability to resolve issues of anger and powerlessness
Definition: The Scarlet Monkeyflower treats a particular state of fear within the human soul: the soul's fear of its own “shadow self” or lower emotions. Those who need this remedy often keep a “lid” on unpleasant emotions. These feelings remain bottled up in the psyche, subject to increasing levels of tension and pressure, until the individual explodes in blind rage or other raw emotions. Unfortunately, these episodes seem to confirm the worst fears — that there is an explosive, demonic force lurking inside — and so the soul is often caught in a vicious cycle of repressing emotional material, only to have it ooze out or explode full force when the ego's “lid” can no longer hold it in. Scarlet Monkeyflower gives the soul courage to actively acknowledge and confront such feelings. These emotions of anger or other intense feelings often have a legitimate basis, but because they are not dealt with in a timely fashion, they loom out of proportion in the psyche. As these experiences are more quickly and honestly acknowledged, the soul learns that it is healthier to integrate such material than to repress it. Scarlet Monkeyflower imparts emotional depth, honesty, and vitality to the soul in its journey toward true wholeness.
