“Aunt Daisy”
Flower Essence

Definition:
The “Aunt Daisy” essence.
For the modern woman who doesn't think she
is as good as the women from her mother's and
grandmother's generation.
In her mothering, hostessing, housekeeping, etc.
Also for men who feel inferior in their male role.....
fathering, providing, etc, that the “traditional” father
used to do.
A flower essence, made 15 March, 2000,
from tiny little violet daisies of the
“Brachycome multifida” family
(exact specific variety not known),
in the garden of Maree, at Te Horo Beach, north of
Wellington.
To me, this is a very “interesting” flower essence.
Everyone who lived in New Zealand in the 1930's to 1950's will know of
“Aunt Daisy”. She was a radio personality,
who, every week-day morning from 9am, hosted a radio show
on New Zealand's sole commercial radio network.
Every housewife in New Zealand was probably tuned in to
the “Aunt Daisy Show”, with its numerous tips
for the busy home-maker..... recipes, household cleaning
tips, child-care information, you name it. If it was
something that was of relevance to the “modern
housewife of the times”, it was certain to have been
featured by Aunt Daisy.
I have many childhood memories of Aunt Daisy's voice blaring
forth from our family radio while my mother rushed around doing
the household chores, including, every Monday morning, boiling
up the water in the old “copper” to do the family washing in this
1950's era that pre-dated the modern washing-machine.
So, it is little wonder to me that this flower essence is the “Aunt
Daisy Essence”, and as such it is an excellent example of using a
cultural icon that is deeply embedded into the mass consciousness
energy as the symbol of a tribal cultural issue.
Of course, anyone who was not in New Zealand back then will have
no resonance with “Aunt Daisy”, but other countries also have their
equivalents of the Aunt Daisy energy, and this essence resonates with
all such energies.
