The Taiwanese Celosia is a wild Amaranth that grows in tropical Asia. Its essence dissolves distraction, meandering thoughts, and beating around the bush. It helps us be more pointed, direct and targeted in not only how we express ourselves, but what we request both mentally and verbally. It helps us cut to the chase and get to the point; when we know what we want, we can create the life we want to live.
If you’re attracted to the Taiwanese Celosia flower you may have recently felt distracted or that you are meandering without clear intent. You may have too many projects going at once and feel you need to organize them by priority – or clarify your ‘plan of attack’ or strategy. You may have had the sense that there are important projects on the table, but either you haven't had the strength or energy or clarity to execute them.
Alternatively, you may have a habit of beating around the bush which can lead to muddled intentions. When you speak, it may not always be clear exactly what you want. When you’re not decisive, or you bend too much to the desires of others, sometimes being “nice” creates massive confusion.
One of the most important aspects of the ever-unfolding visionary process of designing your life, is to know exactly what you want - to know exactly what you want to experience. Just like the pointed arrow-like shape of the flower, Taiwanese Celosia (Celosia argentea) helps us be clear and targeted in our approach. We know what we want and are able to act immediately on that a sustainable pace.
Taiwanese Celosia helps us identify those moments or areas where we are unclear. It helps us see how we create confusion when we don’t know exactly what we want. We are more pointed and direct in how we express ourselves. We can cut to the chase and get to the point. We're clear with ourselves and others about what the priorities are. And when we know what we want and can clearly articulate it, we can create the life we want to live.
Similar to what’s known as Cockscomb in the United States, the Taiwanese Celosia is a tropical version of wild Amaranth from the island of Taiwan. It grows in the fields, slopes, and drier sunny places along the mountainside. A resilient wildflower, it grows during all seasons and has many uses: herbal medicine, dried flower decorations, young edible leaves as vegetables, and a beautiful ornamental plant for gardens, potted plants or cut flowers.
"This elixir is definitely one of my favorites! I sometimes have an issue being direct with people, especially at work. I also have an issue finding the right word when I'm trying to explain something. This elixir has completely helped with all of this. I find that I am more articulate, direct, focused, and I get to the point faster. I was actually so impressed by this elixir I wanted to find the flower to buy and keep at my house! This is one little hidden gem that I found on the site and so happy that I did." —M
"This elixir was profoundly powerful and revealed to me how I needed to “restructure” my ways of being so that my speech actions and way of being was most aligned with my highest good. When I first started it, I was burning with energy and focus. Some interesting observations were that I found extraneous drama in my day because instead of ambiguity in my intentions, thoughts, focus and speech was others, I was clearly and directly focused. As an example, I found less arguing with my kids getting ready for school in mornings as rather then responding to behaviour I was proactively direct and clear which eliminated the need. In general, I was direct, clear and focused, and therefore more deliberate, less distracted and more intentional throughout my day. I initially thought while taking this elixir, I would eliminate my to do list, completing all my outstanding tasks. However, interestingly, my priorities were “shaken up” and I gained clarity on what was priority, where I needed boudaries and space for my effectiveness in executing intentions, and for my well-being. Overall, I realized that my lack of structure and clear intentional focus (at macro level) resulted in chaos with my efforts and energy less contained. I feel this elixir highlighted and supported me in adding some masculine energy to contain the otherwise chaotic flow of creative energy so that it could be more effectively contained and directed. I highly recommend this elixir." —CM
