The Tree Story
Fig Tree (Passion Enhancer) – Ficus carica
The sensuous fruit of this tree is really an inverted flower, with her reproductive parts turned inward. In order to reproduce she needs to invite the fig wasp to penetrate her. When this happens and the wasp lays her eggs within the inverted flowers, she then dies. When her offspring hatch, they pick up
the fig pollen onto themselves before they create a canal, and fly away to later enter another flower, transmitting the first flower’s potent pollen. These trees wrap their branches and trunks around themselves, the perfect picture of self-love.
the resonance
The sacral (sacred) chakra contains a woman’s reproductive and sexual organs. This sacred place is where fate’s future lives. This is where desire arises, which after all is Life’s longing for itself. When this center is damaged, or traumatized, by violent abuse, through shame, medical misdirection, hormonal manipulation, this vital spark is diminished.
The Myth
The Transformation
Possible Scenarios
This essence can act like a female aphrodisiac. It often helps where women have had fertility treatments that may or may not have failed. She might lose the joy of her sexuality because she feels a failure as a woman. Another scenario might be if she has been shamed through harsh religious dogma, sexual wounding or humiliation, leading her to believe her body is her enemy. Her humiliation greatly diminishes the entire range of her creative energy. This essence works well with Pomegranate and Chaste Tree.
