this is the human story of red onion, as told through the homeopathic lens /// allium cepa
i feel a lost sense of unity within myself; i desire to return to Oneness & unite my split masculine / feminine aspects; i fear blending into others outside of me; my experience of myself in the world is of Oneness - how do i adapt to the diverse reality i encounter?
i have a great longing for togetherness, but i struggle with the ability to really listen, communicate with, or really ‘see’ others
i have a desire to be included within the group, yet i feel forced out, like an outsider; i am highly sensitive to feeling rejected, criticized & insulted
i experience moral confusion at times: “how do i differentiate between what is pure & impure, with good sometimes appearing as bad, or vice versa?”
i want to experience the world fully, to ingest & enjoy as much of the world as possible, with passion! i find i either digest the world or reject the world
i have an excess of water in my body – whenever i am stressed, water is released!
i suffer with hay fever & allergic reactions – my nose, ears & eyes are very sensitive to the exterior world; my nose gets stuffy on the left side, then stuffy on the right side
more with my nose! it runs, runs, runs – it’s watery, itchy, stinging & it burns my skin; my eyes run, run, run, too, but my tears don’t burn; i sneeze, sneeze, sneeze; i get hoarse with laryngitis; cough, cough, cough, hack, hack, hack, from a tickling sensation & my larynx feels like it’s going to split & tear apart
i feel much worse in damp, cold wind & weather – spring, late summer & autumn are really bad times for me; i also feel worse in the evening & in warm rooms
i am very overly sensitive to pain, which makes me feel incredibly anxious when i am sick, fearing that the slightest pain may become unbearable; essentially, my hurts do not heal, & i am susceptible to the world’s hurts & wounds
i can be irascible, crabby, cantankerous, snappish, militant, prickly, cynical & ready to fight! – this pushes people away from me; when relationships become too emotionally painful, i detach because i cannot endure emotional pain, either
my brain is very affected – it often feels muddled; i feel gloomy, sad, indifferent, confused, dim, dull, dazed, drowsy, overpoweringly sleepy, & i can’t comprehend – i just don’t understand things; when it’s very intense, i just want to sleep the day away & i don’t even recognize my family members
because my nervous system is so sensitive, i have a susceptibility towards epilepsy, paralysis with painlessness & dullness; i experience neuralgic pains that feel thread-like, shooting, burning, electric, even phantom pains show up for me
i dream of being in danger with efforts to escape - battles, storms at sea, abysses, heights; water, floods, deep wells, high waves
