Brazilian Golden Vine - Stigmaphyllon floribunda

In 2005, I was so relieved to find a different name for this tropical beauty than “Bull Wiss.”  Bull Wiss sounds sort of like some bizarre term for bull urine or something.   Frankly, it was hard to get past this strange name!  Brazilian Golden Vine conveys the beauty of this Flower much better and leaves us free to understand its strengths as a Flower Essence without our minds saying “Bull Wiss? Bull Wiss? nonstop.

The butterfly covered peninsula where I found the Bacopa was the same peninsula where I found Brazilian Golden Vine blooming.  This beautiful yellow blossoming vine caught my attention and I stopped to introduce myself and see if this Flower wanted to be made into an Essence.  Brazilian Golden Vine interrupted to tell me of course it wanted to be an Essence.  That is why it was blooming that morning.  I love it when this happens!

Here is the forthright Brazilian Golden Vine in his own words:  "Things fall apart.  Yes we know that. However, they also fall together.  I AM the accretion of separate goodly deeds into one, the coming together opposite of the big bang.  Consider me when it all feels like a big bang.  I will show you the coming together, the wholeness and unity resulting from seemingly separate events.”
