Illumine Light Balancer Formula Diagram

This synergistic blend of flower essences stimulates the soul’s innate alchemical capacity to balance light and darkness. Yellow and blue flowers work with the levity (light and expansion) and gravity (emotional depth) aspects of the soul, with the “evergreen” pine as the archetypal pivot.

Explorer’s Gentian – This rare, cerulean blue flower blooms deep into the autumn months at high altitudes, when all other flowers have long-finished their blossoming cycle. Explorer’s Gentian speaks to the most profound soul depths, encouraging self-reflection and reconnection with one’s life purpose. It particularly helps those who feel exhausted and discouraged. By encountering these “blue depths” the soul moves toward new possibilities of transformation.

Borage – This bright blue pentagram star-flower is one of the most prominent essences for depression and “the blues.” It nourishes the heart chakra and dispels “downhearted” feelings of grief, discouragement, depression and other emotional heaviness.

St. John’s Wort – This bright yellow flower is the essence of the radiant summer sun. It lifts and expands the consciousness toward light, while providing protection and centering.

Mustard – One of Dr. Bach’s original depression remedies, the bright phosphorus-yellow gleam of the Mustard flower beckons to us in the early spring just as the light is breaking from the earth. Like the shifting sun darting in and out of storm-laden clouds, the Mustard helps the body-soul find internal balance within the movement of light and depth.

Pine – The evergreen trees radiate Nature’s green mantle even in the depth of winter. Thus they hold an archetypal place in our hearts as “Christmas” trees. The Pine tree is one of the most light bearing of all the evergreen conifers, with its silica-rich needles that shimmer in the light. The flower essence of Pine stimulates soul movement, when there is a tendency to dwell too much in the past. With Pine, one transforms what is finished , letting it fall away, so that new structures of light can take hold. On the archetypal level, the Pine speaks to the challenge of the New Year: Ring out the old and ring in the new. The Pine is a powerful evergreen tree that serves as the alchemical balance point between the yellow forces of levity and the blue forces of depth in the Illumine formula.
