Pennyroyal ~ Mentha pulegium ~ spreads out as a thick covering over the spring with small purple flowers rising from the mat in the summer. Pennyroyal belongs to the mint family and is often used as a repellent for insects.
The Pennyroyal flower essence is part of the Delta Gardens Protection Set, along with 7 other essences that affect the protective energy field in specific ways. Pennyroyal creates a kind of insulation between the mental and the etheric bodies, keeping out negative, obsessive and disturbing thoughts.
Thought forms enter the etheric both internally and externally - that is, they can be part of our own thinking patterns or come into the etheric as general thought forms from our environment. There is an interplay between the mental and etheric bodies which happens both consciously and unconsciously.
The thoughts we do not want to think - disturbing, negative, obsessive, worrisome, fearful - come into the mental body from the etheric. Pennyroyal forms a barrier between the mental and etheric, easing the onslaught of bothersome thoughts. This remedy can be helpful for those who are chronic worriers or who have uncontrollable obsessive thoughts.
Children especially, because of their sensitivity, can become vulnerable to disturbing thoughts, especially at night before sleep. A few drops of the essence before bedtime can help a child who has difficulty falling asleep because of thought disturbance.
Pennyroyal can also be helpful to protect against ill will or curses from others. For instance, if someone you know is angry with you or dislikes you and you find yourself constantly thinking about this, Pennyroyal essence, along with your intention, will help you dismiss this line of thinking.
It is best to take Pennyroyal in water. Take it more often that 3 times a day if there are chronic issues. Its effects build over time - after taking it for a few weeks, there will be more noticeable changes.
