About this herb:
Scientific name: Ceratostigma willmottiana
Description:
Cerato is a perennial herb. It comes originally from Tibet and grows to a height of 25 inches. It is cultivated in private gardens. The blossoms, smaller than 1 inch in length, keep for only a few hours and change in color from bluish to reddish-violet. It blooms from August through September.
The aims of this flower essence:
One is uncertain, has too little confidence in one´s own opinion and ability to judge. One needs instructions and other people´s confirmation, one permanently asks for advice.
Dr. Bach wrote:
Are you one of those who feel that you have wisdom; that you could be a philosopher and a guide to your fellow-men? Do you feel the power within you to advise them in their difficulties, to soothe their sorrows, and at all times to be a help to them in their troubles; and yet, through lack of confidence in yourself, you are unable to accomplish this, possibly because you are listening too much to the voice of others and paying too great attention to the conventions of the world? ‘Do you realise that it is only this lack of confidence in yourself, this ignorance of your own wisdom and knowledge, that tempts you to listen too intently to the advice of others?
Then Cerato will help you to find your individuality, your personality, and, freed from outside influences, enable you to use the great gift of wisdom that you possess for the good of mankind.
(Free Thyself, 1932)
Those who have not sufficient confidence in themselves to make their own decisions. They constantly seek advice from others, and are often misguided. (The 12 Healers and other remedies, 1936)
