Lichen, Australian flower remedy

Curated by Daniela Galbiati, naturopath

Lichen is an Australian flower remedy derived from plants of the genus Parmelia . Useful for facing the passage from life to death, it also helps to face great changes and personal upheavals. Let's find out better.

Description of the plant

Parmelia s.lat - Parmelia is an extremely broad genus of leafy lichens, from which this floral essence is derived. Lichens are symbiotic organisms derived from the association of two individuals: an autotrophic organism, like an alga, and a fungus. The two symbionts coexist in an interdependent relationship drawing mutual advantage: the fungus survives thanks to the organic compounds produced by the other organism, which in turn receives protection, mineral salts and water.

The floral essence reflects this symbiosis on a different plane: we are part of the universe and the universe is part of us. When this relationship ends, we leave the earth plane for a different level. Lichen helps the individual to be aware, to seek and follow the Light at the moment of physical death, so as not to remain tied to the earthly-astral plane.

Property of Lichen

It facilitates the passage towards the Light, helping to be aware in following the Light at the moment of death, so that the soul does not remain tied to the earth / astral plane.
Assists in the separation between the physical and the etheric body at the time of death; it is advisable for this to administer the essence before death, even days before.
It helps to leave the retaining energies on the earth plane (bonds), which create a sense of disorientation in the phase of transition to the spiritual world.

Lichen is contained in the Purity Environment and Transition Compounds

Preparation and use

In a 30 ml bottle combine naturale natural water and ¼ brandy for storing the product; add 7 drops for each chosen flower. This personal mixture is taken 7 drops under the tongue, morning and evening, upon awakening and before sleeping.

The drops can also be applied locally as well, combined with neutral cream as a carrier, in the bath water or vaporized in the environment to create a harmonious place. They can also be prepared without brandy making sure they do not degrade (if necessary, the preparation is repeated).

They can be diluted in a little water or herbal teas, even for children. Lichen can be massaged on the feet or hands of the dying patient, or nebulized, if oral administration is not possible

In case of violent deaths (suicide), sudden or unexpected deaths (for accident, for example), nebulized Lichen can be useful for the souls involved to understand what happened and leave the earth plane, favoring the passage into the afterlife.

In the Transition Compound, Lichen helps not only in the passing of death, but also in any important change in life, and in moments of transition, such as a move, a separation or a new job.
