Evening Primrose

Positive Qualities: Awareness and healing of painful early emotions absorbed from the mother; ability to open emotionally and form deep, committed relationships

Patterns of Imbalance: Feeling rejected, unwanted; avoidance of commitment in relationships, fear of parenthood; sexual and emotional repression

Definition: The soul is most open, and receives its first impressions of life on Earth, while in utero or in very early infancy. At this time it is more of a moon-like being than a sun-being, receiving and reflecting the soul light of the parents, especially the mother. These early experiences of light and love are as formative for emotional development as proper nutrition is for the physical fetus. If the soul is neglected or abused while in utero or in very early infancy, a profound and deeply unconscious feeling of pain and rejection resides in the individual. Such persons feel unwanted and often cope by avoiding deep emotional contact or bonding; they retain a moon-like coldness in their souls and are unable to radiate warmth and love from their own center. There can also be a deeply repressed aversion to sexuality, particularly if the reproductive act which brought in the incarnating child was filled with turmoil, violence, or debased lust. Evening Primrose helps to catalyze the emotional awareness of such souls, especially regarding the original, core incarnation experiences which were so devastating. Evening Primrose literally rebirths the soul, providing a matrix of emotional nutrients that were lacking in the soul's earliest feelings about incarnation.
