St. John's Wort Flower Essence
St. John’s Wort flower essence holds an esteemed place in the world of flower essences. This light filled essence is made from the bright yellow flowers that start to bloom around the summer solstice. The days around the summer solstice are characterized by early sunrises and sunsets that stretch into the evening. This abundance of light is a key signature of the essence.
I first made a St. John's Wort essence in 2006. After making the St. John's wort flower essences I journeyed to the plant spirit to seek information on the healing quality of this essence. The journey was done in the manner of a shamanic underworld journey. Drumming was the sonic driver and I used a portal near the plant to travel through and meet the spirit of the plant.
Meeting the Plant Spirit of St. John's Wort
The journey took me to a garden, it was an English garden, very neat with rows and pathways lined benches and lanterns. In the journey I walked around looking at the various plants then took a seat on a bench. Soon after I sat down I was greeted by luminous being about 3 feet fall. He told me he was the spirit of St. John’s Wort. I asked if he had a name, he said “John”, of course. I then asked “What does St. John’s Wort flower essence do?”
The spirit jumped up and put his hand on my belly. Upon putting his hand on my stomach a light grew and then spread to encompass my whole body in tight field of light. I could feel a brightness and sense of protection and upliftment from this action. He then sat down next to me, we just sat together on the bench and soon afterwards the drumming changed rhythm and I journeyed back to ordinary reality.
St. John's Wort Flower Essence and Protection
St John’s Wort flower essence strengthens the energy field where it connects at the solar plexus region. This flower essence has a powerful ability tightening the energy field pulling it closer to the body. St. John's Wort flower essence enhances the light filaments of our protective field. As such it adds fortification to the whole of our energy field.
I find St. John's flower essence useful for many people. Our energy field can be easily weakened or compromised by stress, ill health, drugs and negative thoughts and feelings. When our field is diminished we may feel tired, unable to focus, and suffer from unexplained fears, disturbed sleep and nightmares.
In these instances St John’s Wort flower essence is recommended. It also aids people who are overly expanded, thus making them more susceptible to outside influence. This essence has also been used to address symptoms related to Seasonal Affective Disorder.
St. Johns Wort’s unique actions make it a useful essence to have on hand when we need extra support maintaining the integrity of our energetic field.
St. John's Wort flower essence can be found in the Protection formula drops and spray, as well as the Protection Sleep formula.

This essence works to help shift imprints on chakra 1 and 3. Chakra 1 contains some of our earliest imprints around basic foundational aspects of how we approach life. And, chakra 3 contains imprints around what we perceive we can do. The shifts we make in regards to these two chakras can lead to big changes.
This is one of the most loved formulas that I offer. It helped me after the storm. Being uprooted and nearly losing your life is very disorienting. The synergy created by these vibrational essences creates a rich field of energetic support and protection to face difficulty.
