MAGNOLIA Magnolia stellata, Magnolia grandiflora

Magnolia, one of the first Flowers in creation, is a birth Essence. Magnolia eases the stress on babies during the intense experience of switching gears from the watery, dark world of the womb to the bright, noisy, intense world in which they must breathe and experience the illusion of separation. Newborns go through a dimensional wall during the birth process. Until this point, the baby is usually not fully merged with its physical body. For the incoming soul, birth is when the full merging of spirit and flesh is usually accomplished for the first time.     

Magnolia can help the infant connect to its body and remain connected during the birth process and into early life.  It creates a sacred space of safety for the arriving soul. This is a helpful Essence for the mother to take before and during delivery and for the baby to receive right after birth and then for several weeks post-partum. Putting a drop on a baby’s forehead is all that is necessary. As with everyone else, newborns do not need to take Essences internally to receive their support.

Magnolia also can be used to birth ideas into form. Magnolia will support the birth of any sort of creative endeavor.   

Magnolia serves to help us move back out of form. It offers a different kind of midwife energy at death, but one that is as supportive as the energy offered at the time of birth into a body. It also can be used to help us let go of anything that, for our well being and growth, must die in our lives. Once this release is accomplished, Magnolia helps us ground the new in our lives. The flow of the universe is a rhythmic inhale and exhale. The transition points from inhale to exhale and from exhale to inhale are Magnolia's points of service.

I AM the full integration of the new into my life and being.
