I recognised those little flowers immediately and had no idea what they were… beautiful. They used chicory in the 70’s as a substitute or mixed with real coffee, well they did here in the U.K., at least. I will see those little gems when I’m along that pathway next time. Nice read TY 💚🐝🐝🍀🕊️🌱

One of my fav. flowers.

Herbal rumination leads to full-blown alchemic and metaphysic understanding. A single blade of the weedy 'kusa grass' was an historic metaphor for the distance between Polaris and Earth.

distance between Polaris & Earth? Say more

The concept'll be fleshed out in Chapter 6. The most basic gist here is, kusa grass is extremely flammable. Hydrogen is extremely flammable. There is a Bc or plasmic/energetic connection (the metaphoric or metaphysic strand or blade of grass) growing from the soil of the Earth to the poles (also extending beyond hidden, southern Sig. Octantis). Everything alchemic requires an intuitive leap of the imagination, but not a silly or fanciful one. There must be a solid scientific analogy.

This is where plasma physics is so valuable - it's described in the old Vedas under various names and in great detail but the intuitive and technical understanding must be there or the connection will never be seen. How to describe interstellar plasmas in dark mode? How to describe electron flow? Mary and Odin are familiar ways.

The writers of history, and the writers of all the religious and metaphysic works and today's world orchestrators knew/know this connection. This group consciousness (which is an eternal state that can be achieved in the human condition only by destroying the ego) lives hidden like the underground network of kusa roots.

Even if the grass is burnt above, it regrows "like the phoenix" from its own ashes.

Thank you for your article we have Nettle in powder form and take it daily as its help lower blood pressure.

And chicory we also have it everyday in it's powder form as Coffee, chicory doesn't have caffeine but gives you a rich satisfaction of the coffee without the caffeine.

Nature if greedy human didn't destroy it gives everything we need and is Beautiful.

Great to commune with nature and truly appreciate it. Thank you.

It's those quiet relaxed pauses that allow the hearts wisdom to organise an observation into understanding purpose and plan, and then have the courage to declare insight.

Kudos to yours.

Cafe Du Monde in New Orleans serves coffee with chicory that is quite good if you get down that way.
