Hi Everybody. Happy New Year!
In my last blog post, we discussed the latest developments in homeopathy surrounding the practice of triturations. I did not mention in great detail however, that I myself have become a practitioner within this field.
This brief blog post will discuss my experiences of triturations, and the limited clinical experience I have acquired in using them.
Compared with the popular trituration texts, I have similar experiences in the first through fourth rounds of trituration. The first three rounds of trituration, in my experience, show the conventional homeopathic picture of a substance, usually in a state of crisis. Remedies on this level tend to show a being caught in a state (as discussed in previous blog posts). The fourth level usually contains an insight, which resolves the problems and emotions of that state.
However at the fifth triturations and above, my experience begins to differ from the published versions. The common version is that the triturations access increasingly collective issues. As taken from Hogeland and Schriebman (P 176)
C5: The Individual unconscious and archetypes
C6: The Collective unconsciousness, Humanity as a whole
C7: Global Archetypes and global issues
C8: Oneness, beyond rational understanding.
As well often at these higher levels, in addition to sensations and states, a large amount of conceptual information, sometimes in the forms of ideas, other time in the form of verbatim texts.
My own experience differs from that presented above. While I do experience the ideas and texts in the triturations above C4 but I notice a polarity occurring in those rounds as well. The odd numbered rounds (C5, C7, C9, C11) tend to present me with a problem. The solution to this problem is present in the even round following (C6, C8, C10, C12 respectively). I go to higher levels of trituration than the germans do, but I also find greater and greater levels of significance to the data received as the rounds of trituration increase.
As of the date of the writing, I have preformed a number of triturations on a variety of substances. I do plan on publishing these triturations at some point in the next year or two.
Clinically I have begun to use these remedies. I have noticed so far, that administering these remedies from higher triturations leads to a slow adoption of the insights described by the trituration in the patient. More on this topic will be forthcoming, as it becomes available.
Take care of yourselves.
Dr Paul.
