Lindera Benzoin: Soft and warm, coming from far away, re-assuring, deep support, a different kind of love

• This is for people who feel cold and lonely, far from home, unloved even though they are surrounded by many. Benzoin brings an old love, a very primal form of love and protection that lies at the foundation of a person's strength in life.

A woman lies in her bed, she is ill and though her loved ones are caring for her, she doesn't seem to notice them in her distress.

As the lights burn low and night is at its deepest, there comes an ancient spirit in the guise of a wise old woman into the house where all are sleeping now, save for the sick woman who is battling for her life.

The wise old one comes and sits on her bed, takes her hand and from them flows a river of the oldest love, the love of life, soothing the woman in body, mind and soul, and healing her, turning the tide.
