Amina Essenses - Natural Answer

For some time I have been feeling the seeds of a creative idea to create a small range of essences here at Brook Farm. I have made several at the farm already, usually under our very large and ancient Oak Tree next to the Brook. Until now they have been about healing for the land and about moving me into alignment with my purpose. This has been no easy task as much has been going on with environmental challenges, strange happenings with this land and many blocks and limiting beliefs in me that needed to be cleared first. I also needed to be able to better intuit and interpret the information I was receiving from a higher source. So there has been clearing on many levels to create an energetically clear and harmonious space to make this range.

I wanted to make a range of essences with the help of the horses and other animals here that would be co created with nature. I thought initially they would be for people, but certainly the first few I was guided are for animals and the process of creating them and discerning their gifts is being orchestrated by the horses and animals here.

The name of this new range sprang into my mind some time ago. “Anima Essences”.
The word Anima in Latin describes a current of air, wind, breath, the vital principle, life, the Soul. It is the animating principle of a living thing.

The connection with the element of air very much connects with the horses. The first essence created was “Equi-Anima”. This one is waiting to come into the world as there are still new insights coming through. A message from my horses asked that it be carried in my pocket first when I’m in their presence so that they can choose to interact with the energy of it. They also asked that there be more work with it in the form of ceremonies to channel the intention for it to heal the horse collective. This was an essence with some complex energies involved at the time of making like a full pink moon and a solar eclipse.

This first one made with the help of my horses for all horses is profound in that it is to help re connect horses to the overlighting soul of their species. Horses more than any other domestic animal aside from dogs have shared our evolutionary journey and carried us through thick and thin including our wars. There is deep trauma in the horse collective consciousness that has caused many to be disconnected from their master herd.

The second in the Series is Cani Anima - Unconditional Love
This was made on a lovely sunny day with heart shaped petals of the Wild Rose bushes on the farm. The energies of Rose Quartz and our beautiful now departed dog Roxy who embodied the most gentle motherly, unconditional love are also held within this essence. Primarily a heart remedy this essence can help our canine friends experience the nurturing unconditional love of the mother. If they have missed that phase in life and the bond with their own mother was lacking in some way it can help mend that trauma. Animals weaned too young or inappropriately, puppy’s reared in puppy farms, rescue animals that have suffered abandonment, neglect, cruelty can benefit and the essence also brings the energy of joy and nurturing and self love. A Cuddle in a bottle!

My own range of essences are a work in progress and I’m sure I will soon have a Feli Anima too and many others to help the animals. I will soon be registering my range with the British Association of Essence Producers BAFEP.

I am very excited to be helping bring these essences into being. I hope you will be too and I hope you will follow the journey of their creation as I write about them.

With much love to the animals and gratitude for their sacrifices and service to mankind.
