Autumn leaves is one of the 69 Australian flowers collected and studied by Ian White, a precursor of flower therapy deriving from the species present in the Australian bush.

Australian flowers are prepared with the same principle used to prepare Bach flowers: the raw material, the flower, is harvested at a certain time in its life cycle and is left to macerate in water and brandy. In this flower therapy preparation, autumn leaves are used that leave the tree and abandon themselves to the less material phase of their transformation: hence the name Autumn leaves .

The choice of the raw material of which this Australian flower is composed suggests the energetic movement that it gives to those who take it: it helps in moments of passage . During the important changes in life, in the transition phases , especially when there is a need to let go of something or someone , a part of oneself, an experience that has now ended, Autumn leaves can come to your aid.

Usually the bewilderment in the face of changes can assail us when we go through strong moments of evolution , profound and urgent changes, linked to age or life experiences: during the transition between adult life and more mature life, for women for example it could be linked to menopause while for everyone it could involve retirement, a change of job, a move.

Or even in moments of mourning , whether it be for a relationship that closes or for the loss of a loved one.

Useful at the gates of autumn and winter of feelings and existence, understood as a moment in which it is necessary to withdraw within oneself, in intimacy with one’s inner sensations , one’s spiritual life, contact with what it is more silent and hidden, but still subtly and powerfully vital.

It allows us to let go and fertilize those who come after us in that specific situation , which we need to abandon, as it is no longer our time to live it.

Taking Autumn leaves allows, like all Australian flowers, to listen to the inner voice , and follow it with confidence, even when what we are facing and beyond the change is beyond all certainty and imagination. It instills calm, stillness, serenity.

Autumn leaves can finally be useful in the last step , the one that faces those who are about to leave their body for what is beyond life as we know it on this material plane, in its tangible and physical form.

Those who take Autumn leaves find the calm and firm strength to let go of the tangible part of the experience, due to the connection with the subtler vibration that came from it. This allows us to draw profound and lasting teaching from what we have lived, allowing what has come to us as a life situation to elevate us to a higher state of consciousness and awareness, without fear and without regrets.

This flower helps not to cling to what has been, allowing the free flow of time and experiences . It gives the strength to close a cycle , be it physical, emotional, or spiritual.
