The Head-Pentagram
The Pentagram Treatment on the head
The pentagram is a well-established form in the art of the Rhythmical Einreibung. Especially with Aurum-Lavender-Rose Cream it is an indispensable treatment in heart-related anxiety, sleep disorders and when the I-Organization loses its orientation to the vital forces.
There are some health issues that suggest the use of the Pentagram also on the head: Brain fog, concentration disorders, losing the thread of thoughts as we know it from the beginning of dementia.
This seminar is an invitation to professional nurses who are familiar with RE and the pentagram to discover this new form that has been developed for one year. The pentagram on the head can also be easily practiced in self-care. Therefore, we also invite health professionals who wish to learn the pentagram and contribute by self-observation. We also will talk about Equisetum hyemale / Rubellit (Winter-horsetail / red tourmaline) as an appropriate ointment for the head pentagram.
