OBSERVATIONS ON TAKING THEM

Why can't you take more than several at the same time?

Once again, I contemplated this question, and the answer I got was that the more vibrations you add, the more muddied they become and the weaker the effect. It's like a note of music. By itself its clear and distinct, but the more you add, the more discord you get, until in the end, you can no longer distinguish the notes that make it up. Or another way is having using colours as an example. A single colour is clearly identifiable, but the more colours you add, the more muddied it becomes, until there it is hard to distinguish the right colours.

From experience, I'm starting to suspect that some vibrations seem to work better when taken by themselves, rather than being added to the mix.

Taking the remedies.

The traditional way of taking the remedies is to mix several into a bottle and take them several times daily, which is a tried and true method.

I've noted that, however, if you mix the remedies up separately, and take them about a minute apart, the effects are far more potent and quicker. This was also noted by a lady who noted that if she mixed Star of Bethlehem (for shock and trauma) together with walnut (for change), she felt little effect. But when she took them separately, the effects were immediate and pronounced.

The same is true for Rescue Remedy. Star of Bethlehem is a component of this mixture, but the effects will hardly be as potent or pronounced as when you take SoB by itself.
