There are many types of Flower Remedies from the Bach Remedies to the Australian Bush Remedies.    Although Dr. Bach is thought of as the ‘father’ of Flower Remedies the practice of potentizing water is very old.  This was a common practice in both the Pharaohs and Islamic times and was probably known by all ancient cultures.

Flower Remedies are traditional prepared by potentizing the flowers in sunlight.  Water has the unusual property that it can change it’s matrix under certain conditions.  This property is what is utilized in both Flower Remedy and Homeopathic Remedy preparation.  This property is well illustrated by Dr. Masaru Emoto in his book ‘The Message of Water’.

When preparing Homeopathic Remedies the water is potentized through stirring or succussion.  In Flower Remedy preparation, the water is potentized through sunlight.  Remedies prepared in countries with very strong sunlight such as Egypt and Australia, tend to yield very strong remedies.

The Egyptian Flower Remedies also have the distinction of having one moon preparation.  Maleket El Leil is a night blooming flower.  It gives off its fragrance from sunset to sunrise giving it lunar qualities.  Because it speaks to us at night, a moon preparation was prepared during the full moon.  This remedy has similar properties to the sun preparation but they are much more subtle.
