Flow with Ancient Ones - Cypress & Black Spruce
CYPRESS - The Oil of Motion & Flow
This powerful oil creates energetic flow and emotional catharsis. Stagnant energies are brought into motion through the fluid energy of this oil. Cypress works in the heart & mind, creating flexibility.
Cypress teaches the Soul how to let go of the past by moving with the flow of life. The oil is especially indicated for individuals who are mentally or emotionally stuck, stiff, rigid, tense, overstraining, or have performance tendencies. This hard driving stems from fear and the need to control. The individual tries to force things in life rather than allowing them to unfold naturally.
Cypress encourages individuals to cast aside their worries and let go of control so they can enjoy the thrill that comes from being alive. It reminds individuals that damnation is simply the discontinuation of growth and development, and invites them to step out of the way and allow life to flow freely or without compulsion. Cypress shows how to have perfect trust in the flow of life.
