Basil Flower Essence

POSITIVE QUALITIES
Able to integrate sexuality and spirituality
into a sacred wholeness.

PATTERNS OF IMBALANCE
Tendency to polarise sexuality and spirituality;
often leads to clandestine behaviour or marital stress.

"The soul in need of Basil tends
to polarise and separate the experiences
of spirituality and sexuality,
believing that these cannot be integrated.
This affliction is most evident in relationships,
where there is a compulsive need to seek sexual liaisons
outside the main partnership.
Quite often sexual activity is associated
with that which is secret or sinful.
There is a very strong attraction
to pornography and other forms of illicit or illegal sexuality.
The soul feels great tension between the polarities
of spiritual purity and physical sexuality.
In the unconscious struggle to reconcile these forces,
the soul often capitulates to or becomes enmeshed
in debasing and dehumanising sexual activity.

Once these polarities are brought together as a conscious unity,
the soul no longer feels compelled to separate them
into opposing and destructive activities.

"Basil flower essence helps the soul to experience
the world and the Self as truly sacred and whole"
