About a month ago, I decided to give myself a break from the world of
Facebook. On explaining this to a friend
she innocently remarked “Oh, I did wonder
what had happened to friend number 159”. I felt like a character from Pittacus Lore (“I am Number 4”, “The Power of 6”, “The Rise of
9”); and this pretty much encapsulates why I deactivated my account. At which point did my individualism move out and
friend number 159 move in? I am a
person, not a number. *flounces off* …
Last week I was fortunate enough to attend a day at Rush Farm, the home
of Dr.Hauschka UK, which included the first ever Radiant You Workshop. As the
day progressed and we explored the Dr.Hauschka Philosophy, the Pittacus Lore
thought still lingering at the back of my mind began to take form and another
title sprang to mind -
“The Magic of 8”.
A figure of 8 has neither beginning nor end. It is symbolic of equilibrium between forces,
a balanced, natural motion from death to rebirth; the perpetual cyclic renewal
of life. The focus on this rhythm is
essential in Dr.Hauschka skin care. The Radiant You workshop was truly
amazing. This is just not a skin care
routine, it is a philosophy, a meditation, an act of love, an understanding of
the harmony between the complimentary opposites that are present everywhere - in everybody and everything. *She loved the workshop!*
A horizontal figure of 8 – known as a leminscate - represents
infinity.
Its inclusion on the tarot card “The Magician” conveys infinite
possibilities, the harnessing of mind, body and soul in the accomplishment of
any goal.
Energy cannot be created or destroyed; the infinity symbol above the
Magician's head illustrates an understanding of the energy and power of thoughts.
This card reminds us that we have the power to make a difference, in our lives
and in the world, simply through our intent.
The most precious thought that I will take from the day is that the
intent behind Dr.Hauschka is love -each product is bottled love.
May my soul bloom in love for all existence Rudolf Steiner
My love of Dr.Hauschka has brought me back to Facebook, I am happy to be friend number 8, as I'm feeling the magic.
