Hellebore Flower Essence // Ancestral Work + Sacred Rage
Hellebore blooms beautifully in the darkest, coldest time of winter - always looking down towards the Earth. She stands strong in her power, embodying and holding the wisdom of an elder. She invites us to dive deep into the hidden and repressed emotions, as well as the unconscious patterns that have shaped our lives, encouraging us to purge what no longer serves our higher selves. She offers support when we are ready to take a transformative journey into the underworld, esp. during those moments when we are going through the ''dark night of the soul,'' reminding us that there is always light at the end of the tunnel, and this too shall pass with time. These dark periods offer us profound healing and transformation, ultimately making us stronger and wiser. All the challenging experiences we endure can be turned into invaluable wisdom. With integration, we are then able to look back and understand the lessons we have learned through these trials.
Hellebore helps us stay grounded and rooted in our bodies, especially as we explore past life wounds, karmic limiting patterns, and the deeper aspects of ancestral healing, including intergenerational traumas. The anger, sacred rage, and grief that needs to be honoured, the pain that was passed down to us through generations, the hurts we have experienced as women, as mothers, and as medicine women. Hellebore holds us while we are sitting with this pain, anger, and grief in the most loving and compassionate way, helping us to break free from karmic patterns that bind us to our past, heal our lineages, and move forward with authenticity, integrity, and love. Hellebore helps us reclaim our voice, our unique medicine, and our gifts, while constantly reminding us that we are so needed here on Earth, that we are always enough, and so worthy.
Hellebore is one of the very first “poisonous” plants that I met and connected with. A deeply transformative and profound journey with this beautiful lady, who carries big medicine + feminine wisdom. She is one of those plants who will call you to work with her and explore the lessons she has to offer. Poisonous, ancient, and revered for centuries. As a Saturnian plant, she guides us with ease and grace through the processes of shadow work, helping us navigate endings and unveil the illusions that are not true to our essence. I first met her six winters ago during a pivotal time while navigating my own dark night of the soul. She is now calling out once again, urging us to confront the collective dark night that we are experiencing together. Helping us in dismantling the outdated, oppressive systems + inviting us to examine how we, too, are contributing to these harmful ways. As we reflect on recent events—including violence, genocide, and systemic injustice—we begin to understand how the collective shadow we are facing serves as a mirror for our own darkness, which is ready to be acknowledged, embraced, and transformed through the process of alchemical change.
Invitation for connection w Hellebore Spirit :
Flower essences are vibrational medicines that carry the energetic imprint of a plant. They provide a safe way to work with poisonous plant allies, as they do not contain any physical parts of the plants themselves. These essences can facilitate profound healing and transformation. They are intuitive medicines, and I always encourage you to create a meaningful ritual when working with them. Consider going on a soul journey with a chosen plant, keeping a detailed journal of your experiences, and paying close attention to your dreams, as they may reveal many insights. Working with flower essences can bring up a lot of emotions, so I recommend establishing a daily practice that resonates with you, whether that be meditation, dance, journaling, or another form of expression. Start by taking between 2-4 drops of the essence, welcoming the Hellebore Spirit, and allow yourself to be held and guided through.
Ingredients: Hellebore Spirit, Brandy, Spring Water, Magick
