[Deborah Collins]
The actinides, when transformed into homeopathic
potencies, are remedies of our times, where life seems to be speeding up and
old established systems are falling apart.
Being at the far end of the periodic table, with
the inherent tendency to decay, the Actinides correspond to the approach of
death, the release of the physical state, the transition from the material
realm into the realm of energy. In their raw state, the actinides, or
radioactive elements, have an immense capacity for destruction, either by
inducing genetic mutation and (fatal) illness, or from the effects of nuclear
weapons or fallout from nuclear plants. The destruction can take place at an
unprecedented level,
as in the case of nuclear weapons, where a few
powerful people have the decisive power to wipe out entire cities within
moments. The damage can also have far reaching effects both in space and time,
with winds carrying radioactivity far from the original site, and illnesses
occurring long after the event. The insidious nature of radioactivity becomes apparent in
illnesses where the origin is often untraceable, showing up only years later as
deep-seated illnesses of, for instance, the bone marrow and the blood.
Conversely, the actinides also have the capacity to bring about healing, in the
form of radiation therapy and as homeopathic remedies.
The states requiring Actinide remedies are
powerfully charged. Actinides’ patients can feel fragile and unstable, in a
continuous state of chaos and threatened disintegration. Physically, there can
be severe pathologies or malformations, often genetic. The person may feel like
they are living in a wasteland, between life and death, as might in fact
be the case.
Emotionally, the situation can be equally charged,
with the person talking of “exploding”, “falling apart” or “crumbling”. The
ailments can stem from an unknown source, events that may have taken place long
ago or far away, perhaps in previous generations or past lives. This can include
the results of overwhelming violence, that which has shattered someone to the core.
There can be a sense of carrying the “sins of the fathers”, and a need to
compensate by being of great service to mankind.
While those in an Actinide state who are ruled by
their shadow can cause untold harm to others, those who have delved deep into
their unconscious, in their search for transformation can be the “wounded
healer” for others, with capacities that are not restricted by time or space.
Clairvoyance is not uncommon among Actinide people, as
is the desire, and the ability, to heal with
energy, often from a distance. This highly charged state requires an enormous
vigilance for the person, in order to maintain their physical and emotional
well-being, involving times of quiet, solitude, and often a spiritual practice.
Many of the actinides explode when exposed to air, so immersion in
water (baths) is also necessary and helpful. They
often need to be careful around electronic equipment, as it may malfunction in
their presence: computers break down,
wrist watches stop, and even glass is known to
shatter. Relationships can also be volatile.
On the other hand, there can be wisdom far beyond
one’s years, evident even in small children who have the capacity to “counsel”
their parents.
In these times, our world is facing “Actinides’
circumstances”. We have discovered the potential of the radioactive substances,
both for good and for harm. We are like the sorcerer’s apprentice, knowing a
little about power and magic, but nevertheless capable of destroying ourselves
by lack of wisdom. We are rapidly depleting our resources
and polluting the very earth that sustains us. Our
capacity for inflicting destruction on each other has never been so great and
yet, more and more people are seeking a deep
and true healing, delving into themselves and
transforming their own lives into channels of awareness, for themselves and for
the world at large. The Actinides, in their correspondence with these extreme
states, are able to help many take this transformative step. In this, they are
similar to the Lanthanides, with which they are often confused, and also to the
gem remedies. Just as with the actinides in their material form, however, the
Actinide remedies require cautious use. With their ability to work at a very
deep level, they usually need very little repetition; over-application and
injudicious use can in fact prove harmful.
Margriet Plouvier-Suijs shares her extensive
experience of the Actinide remedies. She has learned to recognise these states
not only in The Last Series their severe forms,
but in their subtle earlier manifestations as
well, so that we can learn to prescribe these remedies before someone becomes
so disastrously ill. She has included cases from
other colleagues as well, broadening our knowledge
and experience of these remedies.
“The Last Series of the Periodic Table“
The Actinides belong to the 7th series of the
periodic table. Jan Scholten uses the word Uranium Series in his book
«Homeopathy and the Elements».
Francium and Radium are the first two elements of
the 7th
series. Actually these two elements don’t belong to the Actinides; they differ
chemically.
Actinium is the 3rd element in the series; Actinium
has element number 89. The elements numbered 89 (Actinium) up to103
(Lawrencium) are Actinides.
In summary the themes of the series. in Jan Scholten’s book.
Archetype: the testifier, the joker, the clown,
the lightning conductor, the prophet
Congenital deviations, genetic deviations.
*The hidden camera
Jan Scholten has literally discovered the
Lanthanides for us; as homeopathic remedies they were previously unknown. In
Boericke there is only one: Cerium oxalicum.
In Jans book «Secret Lanthanides» he explains the
main theme of the Lanthanides, which is autonomy. Other themes are searching,
going deep, reflection. I would like
to add analysis and thinking to the themes he
describes.
People who need Actinides do not use analysis.
Whatever they observe is transparent; they know, insight and overview is there
at the same moment. For that reason I
compare this observing with the use of a hidden
camera.
Observing is pure and objective.
These qualities of observation we learn in our
profession as therapists. For practising homeopathy Hahnemann recommends this
objective observation. In our profession it
is a quality, but in daily life this quality can
cause big problems. In daily life this objective observation of how people deal
with each other can be a painful difficulty because
of the sense of liability.
Again and again the question comes up: ‘what to do
with the insight, the overview and knowing?’ If all the tricks and playing
games in human behaviour are transparent,
how should we react? The only way to live with
this quality is to improve compassion.
Aetiology: the broken mirror
Children are most illustrative in showing the
picture of Actinides. There is usually an aetiologic moment in their life. I
call this moment: ‘breaking the mirror’.
Development in the first year of life:
Rapidly after birth the baby has eye contact with
one of the parents, usually with some kind of recognition. From that first eye
contact the baby uses ‘imitating mimicry’.
The parent and the baby reflect each other.
Initially the child identifies itself in this mirroring face.
At the age of nine months the child is able to
distinguish faces and indicates its preference, this is the period of timidity.
The child develops the ability to remember the favourite face and give it
a name, Mummy, Daddy. Thanks to memory the child
becomes aware of more than one face at the same time, mummy and daddy. This is
the awareness of the triangle:
father, mother and child. Up to that time the
child was one unit with the mother. In the unity communication is non-verbal.
At the time the child is aware of the triangle,
it begins to talk. Thanks to the awareness of the
triangle the child will recognise his own individuality. At the age of three
years the child uses the word ‘I’ for himself.
At the same age the milk teeth are complete, the
fontanel is closed, the child is able to jump (on the ground) and he says “I”:
I want and I don’t want.
In the course of the first years everything the
child does is learned by imitation. In that mirror it recognises itself. When,
however, there is a dramatic event in those early years and the parents cannot
handle the situation, the mirror can be broken. From that moment on the child
will no longer imitate the parents.
At that moment Opium or Aconitum or another remedy
layer can come or cover up.
The Actinide
If the remedy that is needed is an Actinide,
something else will happen at the moment of the dramatic event. Let us look at
the moment of the first eye contact between mother and child; this is the
moment of recognition. We are able to recognise someone we used to know in a
former life. If we, as human beings, reincarnate it is possible that the mother
recognises the newborn child and vice versa. Sometimes the reincarnation is one
of an old soul. At the moment of a dramatic event, the moment the parents are
not able to handle the situation, the reincarnated part of the child takes the
lead in the child’s life. The personality that learns ‘’how to do’’ by
imitating others, babies-instinct, will disappear. From that moment on the
identity of that wise old person awakens in the child.
That person will help the parents to return to
normal, but afterward it is possible that this state continues in the child.
This is visible in the social behaviour and in the language the child uses.
New words heard by him or her are immediately used
in the correct context. For instance; a mother said to her two-year-old
daughter: “You shouldn’t show off,” and the little girl answered:
“No, actress, no!” The disadvantage for the child
in this condition is that his childish expression disappears; for the mother it
is not appropriate to have this wise guy on her lap.
After the correct use of the Actinide remedies for
these children they regain their childish behaviour.
In the history of adults who need an Actinide, I
have seen this trauma in their childhood and the disadvantage of growing up in
such a state. As infant or toddler they lost contact with their own inner
child. They have no experience of quarrelling or standing up for themselves.
The ‘wise elder person’ inside them did not allow that kind of childish
behaviour. For adults the correct application of an Actinide ‘brings the child
back’ to life. From that moment on a process develops in which there is the
growing of
a resistance, like children during early
childhood.
DD.: Androctonus, Aurum, Carcinosinum, Diospyros
kaki, Granitum.
Opposite: UV-rays.
Strictly speaking Radium isn’t one of the
Actinides. It stands at 2nd place in the seventh series of the periodic table.
Marie Curie-Sklodowska discovered the element in 1898. The element was
extracted from pitchblende. Before Radium, she extracted Thorium from
pitchblende, but Gerardt Schmidt in Berlin, who published about it 2 months
before, had already discovered this element.
Radium is known for different purposes: as well as
for radiotherapy,
Radium is used in drinking and bathing water.
Other exotic examples are: an electric blanket impregnated with Radium, a
radioactive corset to treat rheumatoid arthritis and even more extreme: a
remedy made from an extract of monkey testicles and Radium to cure impotency.
Radium is found in cosmetic creams as well.
The effect of the radiation by Radium on the skin
was obvious very quickly: erythema, redness of the skin as if it was burnt,
then healed spontaneously, leaving a depigmented scar. The handling of Radium
sources caused the skin to burn on the fingertips, finally leading to
carcinoma. Except for Pierre Curie, who died in an accident, all the people
working with radioactive elements in those days died from malignant diseases.
In 1950 Radium was progressively replaced by
artificial radioisotopes e.g. iridium 192, caesium 137, cobalt 60, iodine 125.
Radium has been abandoned for radiation protection difficulties.

Communication, listening: careful communication,
reserved while listening
They communicate very carefully. A topic will be
introduced, but they leave it to the partner in the discussion to take it or to
do something about it. They seek the contact
and abandon it, as if every word that might be
said would be too much. They are insecure in communication and they let the
other speak. They listen, but while listening
they cover themselves. They follow the story
smoothly, trying not to show themselves. As if it might burn their fingers.
Wisdom, reflection, trust: too insecure to trust
They have wisdom, but they don’t dare to show it.
They don’t dare to trust.
Wisdom expresses itself by confirmation: it seems
as if they know every situation that people can be in. Therefore in a
conversation it is possible to discuss every subject.
They appreciate others because of what they
express, but they are withdrawing themselves.
To observe, to perceive: doubting about the
observation
The uncertainty of stage 2 is expressed by
withdrawing. As a bystander they don’t mix in the situation because they feel
uncertain; they prefer to be the observer.
Overview, transparency: never take anything for
granted
They do recognise the motivations of the behaviour
of others as well as of themselves, but they continuously need to test their own
analysis. Even what they learn from others, is tested. This is how they seek
continual confirmation, still trying not to show themselves or their own
opinion and ideas.
Sensitivity, sympathy, compassion: keeping silence
They are very sympathetic, knowing and being able
to feel the emotions that fit the circumstances. They try to put their emotion
on the other, because they are too uncertain
to show it themselves.
Universal truth: keep silence
They are uncertain about the difference between
their own interest and the general interest. They do not clearly state that
there is a general interest; it remains unspoken.
Others criticise them for not making things clear
and this confuses them.
Old age, grandparent
All of this mainly fits old age. At the end of
life people are experienced, which makes them able to relativise, contemplate
and let it be. Like a grandparent they withdraw. They don’t intercede.

Etiology of the
Actinide:
At the moment of a dramatic event,
the moment the parents are not able to handle the situation this incarnating
part in the child takes the lead in the child’s life.
The personality that learns how to do
by imitating others (= babies-nature) will disappear. From that moment on the
identity of that old wise person raises in the child.
That person will help the parents to
come to themselves, but afterwards it is possible that this state in the child
continues. The disadvantage for the child in this condition
is that his childish expression
disappears. For the parents it is not appropriate to have this wise guy on her
lap.
After the correct use of the Actanide-remedies for these children they regain their
childish behavior.
As infant or toddler they lost the
contact with their own inner child. They have no experience in quarrelling and
standing up for themselves. The ‘wise elder person’ inside them did not allow
this kind of childish behavior.
For adults the correct application of
an Actinide ‘brings the child back’ to life. From that moment on a process
develops in which I saw the growing of a resistance, like children during early
childhood.
[Deirdre Holmes
The actinides or radioactive
elements, belong to the 7th and final row of the periodic table; they relate to
extreme or final stages of life, and the ailments of these times.
In physical form, these substances
have immense capacity to destroy, by inducing serious or fatal illness or from
the effects of nuclear weapons or from their capacity to
pervert the course of natural
existence via damaging genetic change.
Paradoxically, they can too offer
hope for life, through radiotherapy treatment for disease, medical imaging for
pathology that would otherwise be hidden, and in homeopathic usage. These
extremes of life and death are part of actinides’ themes. The realms they are
used for may not be physical: their challenges may involve extremes of
emotional or psychological suffering, the quest for spiritual survival in the
face of enormous odds and when the costs are huge. If the battle is won,
however, the gains are great, releasing the patient from a life that is lived
on the edge or in shadow, captive to conditions that may seem hopeless or
insurmountable. Often, they can emerge with greater resilience
or creativity; sometimes their
emergence from the suffering is miracle enough in itself.
This huge polarity between the
expression of health and disease is a feature of the actinides and as in
keeping with their position in the periodic table; not for them the smaller
scale, more personally based stories of the higher series. The actinides have
pathologies that can seem utterly intransigent and may have their origins far away
in time and space; the sinister instigating influences untraceable, the
protagonists faceless and unknown. Their stories may include genetic disorders,
the effects of intergenerational and intercultural violence and abuse,
suffering from nuclear, electromagnetic, or environmental pollution, or trauma
buried deep in the subconscious from this lifetime or others. The abuse may be
on a corporate or government scale and cross boundaries of nationality and
terrain. The sufferers or their descendants may never encounter their abusers,
as in the situation of victims of nuclear war, accidents, or testing
(Hiroshima, Chernobyl, the Pacific, and so on). Disorders may take decades to
emerge and be slow to develop, as in the case of radiation induced cancer or
psychological trauma from previous abuse. The full effects of the situation may
not reveal itself for generations to come. The pathology may be deep in the
body, hidden from view - bone marrow disorders, for example – insidiously
affecting blood and immunity, the markers of life force and its defence
capability.
All actinides are in a state of fast
or slow decay (as described by their half lives) and of transformation from one
element into another. This transformation is artificially achieved in nuclear
reactors with the creation of plutonium, the best known and most powerful of
the actinides, from uranium. Plutonium was named after Pluto, the final planet
known in the solar system at that time. (Interestingly, another name proposed
for plutonium was ultimium - ‘the ultimate element’).
Plutonium is found at stage 8, which is concerned with struggle and exercise of
power, and most exemplifies the story of the actinides. In Roman and Greek
mythology, Pluto was the god of the underworld, the dead, and riches. He was an
all-powerful black-clad autocrat, merciless and jealous, separate from the
other gods. His kingdom was a cold dark shadowy underground realm that was home
to the dead, who gave up all rights and personal power on entering his domain.
He ruled his world absolutely and could not be appeased or bargained with. He
fell in love with his niece Persephone, daughter of Ceres, and despite
opposition abducted her by force, compelling her to live with him in the
underworld, the land of shadows, for a portion of the year. This devastation
and loss to the world created winter, where all life seems to cease.
Persephone’s return to the world at the end of winter signals the regeneration
of spring, and life begins again. Thanks to Pluto’s cunning deception, however,
Persephone is condemned to return to the underworld at the end of every autumn,
and so the cycle endlessly repeats. Pluto is also known as Hades, ‘the
Invisible’. He is the god of riches, referring to the vast storehouse of
mineral reserves and mines underground, which is also home to the actinides.
This story is rich with imagery
describing the themes of the actinides: abuse of power and position, loss,
devastation, amorality, profound transformation, inexorability, cruelty, death,
and transgression of boundaries both moral and physical. There is powerlessness
but the return to life as power is regained. We see the conflict between light
and dark, sacred and profane. Ruthless selfish ego, acting from base or lower
self motives, wreaks havoc with far reaching and unforeseen consequences for
many. The challenge for the actinides is to exercise power with higher selfless
motives, for the good of all, and to conquer the dominion of their shadow
aspect.
It is no accident that the discovery
of the actinides and their applications parallels the development of modern
psychotherapy, with its acknowledgement of self versus shadow, conscious versus
unconscious.
The power of an unacknowledged shadow
can be immensely destructive, until the light of consciousness is shone upon
it. Often, actinides patients are struggling with either the darkness in their
own subconscious or the trauma created by the actions of another’s shadow.
Patients may describe an immense sense of burden, responsibility, or karma; the
‘sins of the fathers’ and issues passing through generations. The lanthanides
can also have this struggle and desire to develop consciousness, but it is less
intense and their sense of self is more ambivalent, less vanquished or
overreaching. For the actinides, the struggle to free oneself from the effects
of this oppression can be immense but the rewards of this liberation are
profound. The riches are in the form of self-knowledge and personal
empowerment, and the ability to benefit others.
We also see themes of isolation, not
necessarily by choice, which may in patients be dictated by illness or complete
breakdown and vulnerability. The patient may be reclusive and feel not at ease
in the world. In a healthy actinide, withdrawal, time out, or a formal
spiritual retreat may still be necessary to maintain equilibrium and peace.
They may need to remove themselves totally from their environment, in order to
heal or re-find themselves.
Actinides are fragile, volatile
elements, in a state of transition and decay, and prone to spontaneously
setting alight in contact with the air. This describes the fragile, unstable,
and combustible patient, whose life can feel in a constant state of
instability, chaos, and threatened disintegration. This energy may communicate
to energy or power sources around them and electronic devices may be prone to
breaking down, light-bulbs shattering, and glass breaking. Actinides as a group
may have relationships to gem. remedies, the lanthanides. or aurum. series, the bird. family,
Anacardium and the AIDS
nosode.
Illnesses are extreme and involve
huge loss of power, function, and freedom. Actinides patients may feel as if
they are living in a wasteland, or on the edge of existence. They may feel not
of this world, somewhere between life and death, as indeed they may really be.
Often, they have a translucent quality, or etherealism,
not uncommon in those approaching the end of life, or those with clairvoyant or
mediumistic abilities.
For them the veil between this world
and others is thin, barriers disappear, and the invisible and hidden becomes
visible. The world of spirit may be more real than the physical plane they
inhabit, and they may struggle to be fully incarnate. These are also the
remedies of those with abilities to see, move energy, or heal at a distance.
They may see their work as the payment of a debt of some kind and can show
enormous devotion to helping others in their healed state. The challenge is to
find their ability to live in this world, to transform and regenerate.
[Margriet Suijs]
Actinides the 7th of the periodic
system
The hidden camera and the broken
mirror Six years ago during a course, I presented all I knew about the remedy
Uranium. Over the years I have learned much more about the remedy and about
other remedies of the Uranium-series:
I know Radium, Thorium, Neptunium and
Plutonium as homeopathic remedies as well. Because of my own constitution I
might be sensitive to recognize these pictures.
I will describe the Uraniumseries as a group and explain the possible etiology of the remedy-picture. The Actinides are the 7th
series of the periodic system.
Jan Scholten:
Hydrogeniumseries: being, fetus,
space.
Carbonseries: ego, child,
body.
Siliciumseries: friend,
family, teenager.
Ironseries: worker,
adult, village.
Silverseries: inventor,
performer, middle age, city.
Goldseries: leader,
ripe age, country/world.
Central words for the Uraniumseries:
Altruism
Communication
Wisdom
Observe, perceive
Overview, transparency
Sensitivity, Sympathy, Compassion
Universal truths
Old age
Archetype: the testifier, the
witness, the joker, the jester, the clown.
Altruism:
This is to be recognized in
individuals like Mother Theresa: still at old age she cared for children and
people who are unknown in this world.
Nelson Mandela: gave all his energy
to change the system in South Africa; although he was in prison for many years
and suffered a lot, he kept to his beautiful message for the world.
In his altruism the energy is never
lacking. The only possible way to live is by giving.
To communicate:
Very good in both verbal and non
verbal communication. Also in children this aspect is to be noticed: the
language they use is not appropriate for their age. Whatever they say, they say
it precisely.
Thus a child of five years old said
at the moment she splashed of anger and was send to her room: “however then
I’ll go to my chamber and I will never return, not to eat and neither to
drink!!"
Catherine Coulter describes in
‘Psychological Portraits’ about the remedy Lachesis
and the picture of a child with such sharp language. In the Actinides however,
there is no competitive element at
all like in Lach.
Wisdom, intuition:
They are wise, not in the sense of clever,
they have a wisdom which shows insight. The appropriate sense is intuition.
They are clairvoyant and sometimes they simply know. They recognize if
intuition is colored by emotion and know the truth.
To observe, to perceive:
They see through people and their
actions. They are adapted to several cultures and they will seldom be surprised
about what happens. They can imagine every life-event even the most
inconceivable.
The aim of living is to try to be in
peace with each other. In the cycles of lives a quality has different stages:
we are victim, actor, indicter, judge, defender, we are condemned and finally
we regret. People who need an Actinide know these stages and do not have any
judgment. In observing the judgment is absent.
Overview, transparency:
They observe as if everything is
transparent. They understand what is going on at the moment they see it. They
do not filter. This way of looking at things is like using a hidden camera.
People of old age and little children observe the world around them in this
way. The similarity of elder people and children is that they do not react on
the world they observe, they have no emotion about it, they are objective and
just watching. Observing is pure and objective.
Old age:
The high age belongs to this series.
In old age it is appropriate to be withdrawn and present. They do not
intervene.
Physical complaints: Cancer, bone
marrow disorders, leukemia. Congenital deviations,
genetic deviations.
The hidden camera: Jan Scholten has literally discovered the Lanthanides for us,
as homeopathic remedies they were unknown.
Boericke only one:
Cerium Oxalicum.
Jan Scholten:
explains about the main theme of the Lanthanides which is autonomy. Other
themes are searching, going deep, reflection. This all is to learn from his
book: ‘Secret Lanthanides’.
I would like to add analysis and
thinking to the themes he describes. People who need Actinides do not use
analysis. What ever they observe is transparent; they know, insight and
overview is there at the same moment. That is the reason for me to compare this
observing with the use of a hidden camera. Observing is pure and objective.
These qualities of observation we are
intent to learn in our profession as a therapist. For practicing homeopathy H.
recommends this objective observation. In our practice it
is a quality, but in daily life this
quality can cause big trouble.
In daily life this objective
observation of how people deal with each other can be a painful charge because
of the sense of liability. Again and again the question comes up: ‘what to do
with the insight, the overview and knowing?’ If all the tricks and playing
games in human behavior are transparent, how to
react?
Case: Uranium arsenicicum
A little girl at the age of 20 months
visits my clinic for complaints since the age of 10 months: she has eczema in
little spots and has attacks of vomiting. She spits very explosive and
frequent: 1 - 4 or 5x weekly. She spits without reason, but also when she is
angered or during a cough. Every deviation of daily routine leads to more and
more frequent vomiting. If she vomits she looks vaguely, her face is very pale,
her eyelids are red. She remains active, but takes rest from time to time. She
has no appetite and takes no food. During pregnancy her mother had high blood
pressure and physically it was not easy. After 37 weeks of pregnancy the
delivery was induced. She breastfed her daughter for 7 months and everything
was fine, but she had some fever after vaccinations.
At the age of 10 months she felt sick
and 3 hospitalizations followed: The first because of a gestation with the R.S.
virus, the second because of pneumonia, and the third because of the vomiting.
The course of the first hospitalization was dramatic: she arrived in the
hospital in a bad condition and her respiration became worse and worse. At the
end she was passive. The parents gave a big alarm, but nobody reacted to them.
After a long time the baby was given oxygen and slowly recovered. The parents
felt forsaken and powerless at that moment.
The little girl has a strong will.
She plays her own game. If someone else plays with her and takes over from her
she stops playing and will start to do something else. She does not accept
guidance. She is capricious while playing. She is very good at observation and imitates
afterward. She is very sensitive to noise. She prefers company and she panics
if she is left alone. It is remarkable that she knows all the children in the
nursery by name. She is neat and likes to wash her hands.
Analysis Stomach, vomiting paroxysmal.
She prefers company and is in panic if she is left alone. Fear of being alone
lest she die (the situation in hospital). She is neat and likes to wash her
hands: Rubric: always washing her hands. Generals, vaccination. Cannot rest
when things are not in their proper place.
Ars. 30K is the first remedy.
Follow-up After the remedy she had an
aggravation, but no amelioration. She vomits even during sleep. Mother tries to
make agreements with her with success. She is very accurate and she knows
exactly what kind of agreement they have. She corrects her mother: "that
we didn’t agree, mamma!” She is a high performer in social contact.
She uses sentences and she becomes
frustrated if she is not able to express herself. She uses new words
immediately in the correct context: mother says: "don’t show off
this way." She answers:
"no, actress no." She is a wise adult with the body of a child.
Uranium arsenicicum
30K is the second remedy.
Follow-up 1 month after the remedy.
She enters the room in a resolute way
and starts to play by herself. She is more playful and while playing she shows
much more fantasy. The mother says: “Now she is a child that I can take on my
lap!” She only has vomited once. Her anniversary passed: it was a busy day but
everything was OK.
Her mother lost her job. The
repeating illnesses of the little girl forced her to stay home and her boss did
not accept this. Now she has two children and likes to take care of them.
Advise: Uranium arsenicicum
30K if necessary.
Follow-up One month later the mother
reports that from time to time she still vomits. Going to sleep is a problem.
She does not want to sleep.
After one dose of Uranium arsenicicum 200K, this complaint disappears and she is
doing well from that moment on.

Actinoiden-Reihe
Die Actinoide (früher: Actinide) sind silbrig-glänzende,
durchwegs radioaktive Metalle. Sie sind äußerst
reaktionsfreudig und oxidieren sehr schnell an Luft. Mit Wasser reagieren sie
unter Freisetzung von Wasserstoffgas.
Nur die ersten fünf Actinoiden
-Thorium, Protactinium, Uran, Neptunium und Plutonium- kommen auf der Erde
natürlich vor. Die beiden letzten sind Zerfallsprodukte von Uran. Alle darauf
folgenden transuranischen Elemente wurden erst nach
1940 künstlich erzeugt.
And Thulium?
Jan Scholten:
Thulium gives up autonomy for the sake of gaining Self. What could this mean?
Well, he adds that giving up their personality is their Achilles heel. Its much
more than backing down out of politeness like Phos.
Is it yielding the ultimate... submission? What kind of submission?
Loss, Surrender, Handing over,
sacrificing and refusing.

nicht wirklich selten.
Actinoides
Foreword by Deborah Collins15While those in an
Actinide state who are ruled by their shadow can cause untold harm to others,
those who have delved deep into their unconscious, in their search for
transformation can be the “wounded healer” for others, with capacities
that are not
restricted by time
or space. Clairvoyance
is not uncommon among Actinide
people, as is the desire, and the ability, to heal with energy, often from a
distance. This highly charged state requires an enormous vigilance for the
person, in order to maintain their physical and
emotional well-being, involving
times of quiet,
solitude, and often
a spiritual practice.
Many of the
actinides explode when
exposed to air,
so immersion in
water (baths) is also necessary
and helpful. They
often need to be careful around
electronic equipment, as it may malfunction in their presence: computers break
down, wrist watches stop, and even glass is known to shatter. Relationships can
also be volatile. On the other hand, there can be wisdom far beyond one’s
years, evident even in small children who have the capacity to “counsel” their
parents. In these times,
our world is
facing “Actinides’ circumstances”. We
have discovered the potential of
the radioactive substances, both for good and for harm. We are
like the sorcerer’s
apprentice, knowing a
little about power and magic, but nevertheless capable of
destroying ourselves by lack of wisdom. We are rapidly depleting our resources
and polluting the very earth that sustains us. Our capacity for inflicting
destruction on each other has never been so great and yet, more and more people
are seeking a deep and true healing, delving into themselves and transforming
their own lives into channels of awareness, for themselves and for the world at
large. The Actinides, in their correspondence with these extreme states, are
able to help many take this transformative step. In this, they are similar to
the Lanthanides, with which
they are often
confused, and also
to the gem
remedies. Just as
with the actinides
in their material
form, however, the
Actinide remedies require cautious use. With their ability to work at a
very deep level, they
usually need very
little repetition; over-application and
injudicious use can in fact prove harmful.In
this book, Margriet Plouvier-Suijs
shares with us her extensive experience of the Actinide remedies. She has
learned to recognise these states not only in
The Last Series16their severe forms, but in
their subtle earlier manifestations as well, so that we can learn to prescribe
these remedies before someone becomes so disastrously ill. She
has included cases
from other colleagues
as well, broadening
our knowledge and experience of
these remedies. I most sincerely hope that this book will
help us to
utilise not only
the more familiar
Actinide remedies, but
to venture out
and learn to
apply the full
spectrum of Actinides
in our practices.
24The Last Series of the Periodic TableIntroductionThe
Actinides belong to
the 7th series
of the periodic
table. Jan Scholten uses the word Uranium Series in his book
Homeopathy and the Elements.Francium and Radium are
the first two elements of the 7th series. Actually these two elements don’t
belong to the Actinides; they differ chemically. Actinium is
the 3rd element
in the series;
Actinium has element
number 89. The
elements numbered 89
(Actinium) up to103
(Lawrencium) are Actinides.In summary
the themes of the series in Jan Scholten’s book
are: -Hydrogen series: being, foetus,
space. -Carbon series: ego, child,
body. -Silicum
series: friend, family, teenager. -Iron
series: worker, adult, village.
-Silver series: inventor, performer, middle age, city. -Gold series: leader, ripe age,
country/world. -Uranium series: magic,
intuition, old age, universeThe central words of
these series areAltruism Communication, listeningWisdom, (self ) reflectionObserve,
perceive Overview, transparency Sensitivity, Sympathy, Compassion TrustUniversal truths Old age, grandparentArchetype:
the testifier, the joker, the clown, the lightning conductor, the prophet
The Last Series of the Periodic
Table25AltruismThis is to be recognised in individuals like Mother Theresa: at
a very old age she still cared for children and people who are widely ignored
in this world in their need for help. Nelson Mandela as well is a man who gave
all his energy to change the system in
South Africa; although
he was in
prison for many
years and suffered
a great deal, he held onto his
beautiful message for the world. In his altruism his energy is never lacking.
The only possible way to live is by giving.To communicateThey are very good at both verbal and non-verbal
communication. This aspect is also
seen in children:
the language they
use is not
appropriate for their age. Whatever
they say, they say it precisely. Thus a child of five being sent to her room
and filled with anger said: “However then I’ll go to my
room and I will never
return, not to
eat and neither
to drink!!” Catherine Coulter describes in her book PsychologicalPortraits about the
use of language of people who need the remedy Lachesis
and she gives an example of a child with such harsh language. The communication
of the child needing Lachesis might
resemble the communication
of the child
described above but
in the Actinides
however, there is
no competitive element at all as there is in Lachesis.Wisdom, intuitionThey
are wise, not in the sense of being clever; they have a wisdom, which shows
insight. The appropriate sense is intuition. They are clairvoyant and
sometimes they simply
know. They recognise
if intuition is
coloured by emotion and know the truth.To
observe, to perceiveThey see
through people and
their actions. They
are adapted to
several cultures and
they will seldom
be surprised by
what happens. They
can imagine every life-event,
even the most inconceivable. The aim of living is to try to be at peace with
each other. In the cycle of life quality has different
The Last Series26stages: we are victim, actor,
indicter, judge, defender, we are condemned and finally we regret. People who
need an Actinide know these stages and do not have any judgment. In observing
that judgment is absent.Overview, transparencyThey observe
as if everything
is transparent. They
understand what is
going on at the moment they see it. They do not filter. This way of
looking at things is like using a hidden camera*. Elderly people and little
children observe the world around them in this way. The similarity of elderly
people and children is that they do not react to the world they observe, they
have no emotion about it; they are objective and just watch. Observing is pure
and objective.Old ageThe old
age belongs to
this series. In
old age it
is appropriate to
be withdrawn while you are
present. They do not intervene.Physical complaintsCancer, bone marrow disorders, leukaemia. Congenital
deviations, genetic deviations.*The hidden cameraJan Scholten has literally dis-covered
the Lanthanides for us; as homeopathic remedies
they were previously
unknown. In Boericke there
is only one:
Cerium oxalicum. In his
book Secret Lanthanides
Jan Scholten explains
the main theme
of the Lanthanides,
which is autonomy.
Other themes are
searching, going deep, reflection. I would like to add
analysis and thinking to the themes he describes.People
who need Actinides do not use analysis. Whatever they observe is transparent;
they know, insight and overview is there at the same moment.
The Last Series of the Periodic Table27For that
reason I compare this observing with the use of a hidden camera. Observing is
pure and objective. These qualities of
observation we learn
in our profession
as therapists. For
practising homeopathy Hahnemann
recommends this objective
observation. In our profession it is a quality, but in daily life this
quality can cause big
problems. In daily
life this objective
observation of how
people deal with each other can be a painful difficulty because of the
sense of liability. Again and again the question comes up: ‘what to do with the
insight, the overview and knowing?’ If all the tricks and playing games in
human behaviour are transparent, how should we react? The only way to live with
this quality is to improve compassion.Aetiology: the
broken mirrorChildren are most illustrative in
showing the picture of Actinides. There is usually an aetiologic
moment in their life. I call this moment: ‘breaking the mirror’.Development
in the first year of life: Rapidly after birth the baby has eye contact with
one of the parents, usually with some kind
of recognition. From
that first eye
contact the baby
has ‘imitating mimicry’. The
parent and the baby reflect each other. Initially the child identifies itself
in this mirroring face.At the age of nine months the
child is able to distinguish faces and indicates its preference, this is the
period of timidity. The child develops the ability to remember the favourite
face and give it a name, Mummy, Daddy. Thanks
to memory the
child becomes aware
of more than
one face at the
same time, mummy and daddy. This is the awareness of the triangle: father,
mother and child. Up to that time the child was one unit with the mother. In
the unity communication is non-verbal. At the time the child is aware of the
triangle, it begins to talk. Thanks to the awareness of the triangle the child
will recognise his own individuality. At the
age of three
years the child
uses the word
‘I’ for himself. At the same age the milk teeth are
complete, the fontanel is closed, the child is able to jump (on the ground) and
he says “I”: I want and I don’t want.
the parent and the baby reflect each othter
The Last Series of the Periodic Table29In the
course of the
first years everything
the child does
is learned by
imitation. In that
mirror it recognises
itself. When, however,
there is a
dramatic event in
those early years
and the parents
cannot handle the
situation, the mirror can be broken. From that moment on the child will
no longer imitate the parents. At that moment Opium or Aconitum or another
remedy layer can come or cover up.The ActinideIf the remedy that is needed is an Actinide,
something else will happen at the moment of the dramatic event. Let us look at
the moment of the first eye contact between mother and child; this is the
moment of recognition. We are able to recognise someone we used to know in a
former life. If we, as human beings, reincarnate it is possible that the mother
recognises the newborn child and vice versa. Sometimes the
reincarnation is one
of an old soul. At
the moment of
a dramatic event,
the moment the
parents are not
able to handle
the situation, the
reincarnated part of
the child takes
the lead in
the child’s life. The personality that learns ‘’how to
do’’ by imitating others, babies-instinct, will disappear. From that moment on
the identity of that wise old person awakens in the child. That person will
help the parents to return to normal, but afterward it is possible that this
state continues in the child. This is visible in the social behaviour and in
the language the child uses. New
words heard by
him or her
are immediately used
in the correct
context. For instance;
a mother said
to her two-year-old
daughter: “You shouldn’t show off,” and the little girl
answered: “No, actress, no!” The
disadvantage for the
child in this
condition is that
his childish expression disappears; for the mother it is
not appropriate to have this wise guy on her lap. After the correct use of the
Actinide remedies for these children they regain their childish behaviour.In the history of adults who need an Actinide, I
have seen this trauma in their
childhood and the disadvantage of
growing up in
such a state.
As infant or toddler they lost
contact with their own inner child. They have no experience of quarrelling or
standing up for themselves. The ‘wise elder person’ inside
them did not
allow that kind
of childish behaviour.
For adults the correct application
of an Actinide ‘brings the child back’ to life. From that moment on a process
develops in which there is the growing of a resistance, like children during
early childhood.

Francium
is the first
element of the
last series. It
is the last
element discovered in nature.
Marguerite Perey in France discovered it in 1939. The
element is extremely rare. Some trace of Francium 223 amounts are found in
uranium and thorium ores. Francium has an extremely short half-life. The
half-life of the most stable isotope - Francium 223 - is 21.8 minutes. Due to
the instability and the rarity there is no commercial application for Francium.Francium is unknown in homeopathy.

Uranium, X-ray, Arsenicum, Causticum, Phosphorus, Pulsatilla, Rhus radicans, GranitumThere are two salts of Radium: Radium bromatum and Radium iodatum.About
BromiumBromium is stage 17 of the Iron series and
some of the rubrics are: Desire
activity in business,
must check twice
or more, desire
to look backwards.
Jan Scholten uses
the word ‘guilt’
for Bromium: the
guilt is about
work, the job:
looking backwards when
you retire: was
it good enough?Bromium has
the fear someone is behind them and the delusion strangers are looking over
their shoulder.Other
rubrics for Bromium are:
indifference to domestic
duties and household affairs, even children have
aversion to domestic duties (Mind, duty aversion to domestic duties in
children). Doing household duties you don’t earn money. The guilty feeling is
not about the household duties!Bromium can
start on waking
as if suffocating;
there is fear
of ghosts; desire for company in the evening.Combining
the ideas of Radium with the ideas about Bromium of
Jan Scholten (retire, adultery, guilt, penal
servitude and passion) and with the rubrics about Bromium
mentioned above, the themes of Radium bromatum are:Radium bromatumCarefully
communicate about what might be done wrongKeep silent
about their fear of ghostsReserved while listening
even to passionate speakers
Radium37Doubting their observation about work
or household dutiesToo insecure to trust their child
in household duties: takes it over all the timeTruth:
never take anything for granted, especially not when the parents tell the
child: “Ghosts do not exist!” Radium bromatum is in
the rubric: “Fear of being alone in the dark, wants to have someone near.”About IodumIodum is stage
17 of the Silver series and some of the rubrics are: Must keep
busy, fear insanity
if he wants
to repose, must
always move, impatience: runs about, never sits.Jan Scholten uses the word
obsession for Iodum and the obsession is about
presenting, moving and speaking: fear of people, avoids the sight of people,
ritualistic behaviour, must check twice or more, answering loudly, heedless
loquacity, delusion she is falling on walking.Impressionable, aversion
being spoken to,
aversion company of
friends, avoids the sight of
people, delusion is great person.Iodum is not
concerned with labour and work, but about being creative: fear and
anxiety doing manual
labour, fear of
work, and concentration
difficult when drawing, aversion being disturbed.Aversion
to be touched and desire to be held.Anxiety when
hungry and fasting, eating ameliorates, anxiety and sadness about the present.Combining
the ideas of
Radium with Jan Scholten’s
ideas about Iodumof (emigration,
fleeing, humour, obsessive,
forgetful, culture, existence)
and with the rubrics about Iodum that I
mention, the themes of Radium iodatum are:Radium iodatumCommunicate
carefully to avoid the heedless loquacity.Keep silent
and avoid the sight of people.Reserved while
listening to hide their impressionability.Doubting
their observation about ritualistic behaviour and culture.Too
insecure to express they want to be held.
The Last Series38Truth: never take anything for
granted: they check everything they need for their existence.Case
1 Radium iodatumA little two-year-old boy comes into
my room and heads straight for a large wooden car with the exclamation: “That
is a beautiful car!” My immediate response to his mother is: “He speaks well!”
His mother doesn’t notice: her son always talks this way!They
are visiting me, because of his sleeping difficulties. During the day he
doesn’t sleep at all; at night his mother sits beside him until he sleeps,
usually around 10 pm. During the night he awakes screaming; it’s better if his
parents allow him to sleep with them. He is very busy; he never sits
quietly and can
be very impetuous.
His development is
rapid: he easily
solves puzzles. He arranges toys: in the course of the appointment one
car after the other appears on my desk, and all in a line. From time to time he
touches me and says: “Ah lady, that is a beautiful freight car!” I give him the
answer: “Yes, that is a beautiful lorry.” Secretly I wonder whether he will
adopt the word, but he does not do so.He does not
have time to cuddle. He doesn’t make eye contact either. He just continues. If
his mother gives a reprimand, he reacts as if he wants to say: “Ah let me
continue!” Mother says: “He does not listen”, but if that is true he would
never have this pronunciation!The pregnancy
went very well;
but the delivery
was not that
easy. He was in the breech position and they just
managed to prevent a caesarean section. After birth he cried a great deal for
eight to nine months with ear complaints.
Mother had a
very busy period
after his birth:
her husband lived abroad and she had to do everything on
her own.When
it started to
get better she
was pregnant with
the second child.
Approximately six weeks
before the birth
of his little
brother, the boy
started to wake up screaming.The labour
of the second
child was dramatic.
At one point
the mother
Radium39had the idea: “tomorrow I am no longer
here”. After the delivery she had a haemorrhage. She received ten pints of
blood; she had an embolism in the lung, and a thrombosis in the abdomen. She
was operated on, but she lost consciousness before she got the anaesthetic. It
took a very long time for her to wake up from the anaesthetic. In that time she
had a ‘near-death’ experience.I prescribe Radium iodatum 30K.AnalysisArguments for
the Actinide are:
his pronunciation, his
fast development and
the fact that
he anticipated what
happened to his
mother after the
birth of his brother.Arguments for stage 2: in
his behaviour I recognise that he listens but he doesn’t show it, he hides.Arguments for the Iodum: he
is busy and he makes no eye contact (aversion company, avoids
the sight of
people). Mother says,
“He doesn’t listen,” (aversion to being spoken to,
doesn’t want to be disturbed).Follow upDuring the
first week he is quieter and sleeps during the day: he is tired. He sleeps at
night through to 6 am. After a week he is on the run again and the mother
repeats the remedy.Follow upNext
consultation after a month he is much quieter, he sleeps better, sits on your
lap, wants to be cuddled and makes eye contact. Six weeks later he has another
repetition of the remedy.Follow upAt the
third consultation everything
is OK. Even
his pronunciation is
changed and he is speaking in a manner more in keeping with his age.
The Last Series40Case 2 Lichen Sclerosis,
Radium bromatum/Radium iodatumA woman
aged 37 comes
to visit me
in 2005. Her
complaint is Lichen
Sclerosis. She is
using an ointment
from the dermatologist
that contains corticosteroids. Even with the use of the
ointment there is no improvement.Three years ago she
had endometritis due to an IUD. She received a course
of antibiotics. Some weeks later a white spot appeared on the clitoris. In the
beginning the spot was itching, desquamation followed and the spot grew over
the labia.Her skin is very healthy and generally she
is very healthy. She says: it is as if my body excludes everything as soon as possible.She is married and she is the mother of three children.The first child, a son, was born after a pregnancy
of 28 weeks. At that time she lost amniotic fluid and had a streptococcus
infection.. The child died one day after birth.Her second
is ten years
old. This child
is born after
a pregnancy of
34 weeks and
everything was OK.
It was hard
for her to
be pregnant, she
felt ambivalent about it and after childbirth she had to learn how to be
a mother.The third is eight years old. This child, a
daughter, was ready to be born at 32 weeks, but the birth was delayed until 37 weeks.Again she needed
antibiotics because of
the streptococcus. During
this pregnancy she felt more trusting.She tells me that she still has contact with her
first baby.She
cares a lot
for others. She is
helping a mother
in taking care
of her handicapped child, who has cerebral palsy and
is blind. To help this child in a positive way you need to be very sensitive.She likes to work, feeling useful is important.
She easily feels guilty when she is doing nothing.Many people
ask her for
help and most
of the time
she has to
listen to
Radium41them. To listen and to be present is
more important than the little things at home.She is
thinking and reflecting. She is rather positive, but she has her doubts
about the way
of conversation. She
thinks over and
over about what
she said and what the question or
the answer was.A conversation in a noisy room is irritating.First remedy: Radium bromatum
12KAnalysisIn the rubric: Skin, cicatrice white: you
can find three remedies: Kalium bichromicum,
Radium bromatum and Syphilinum.I
choose an Actinide because she is very sensitive in communication, she is very
cautious when she
expresses something and
she has many
doubts afterwards. This shows
stages 2.The Bromatum is chosen because of her guilty
feeling about doing nothing.I gave Radium
bromatium12K because she is not aware of all this: it is just her behaviour.Follow upHer complaints
have decreased, but the itching is still there.Her
complaints are on her mind all the time. She recognises that a nephew of hers
is much more easygoing.Dream: she has tattoos on her
neck with two names. She wants to get rid of the tattoos but she is worried
about having scars.And then
spontaneously she says:
“I stopped singing
some time ago.
I really liked to sing. I could
express my feelings by singing. Now I intend to start painting.”Dream: the
remedy for her
itching was in
the dream, but
she forgot the name.During last winter she suffered from fever blisters.Second remedy: Radium iodatum
30K
The Last Series42AnalysisThe first remedy works
partly. Singing and painting is in the silver series. It is her way to express.
In her dream she forgot the name of the remedy. Forgetful is a word that fits Iodum.I chose Radium
iodatum
30K because the
complaint is continuously
in her mind is if it is fixed.Follow upFor three weeks it
was very good. She didn’t need the ointment as frequently as she did before.Now the holidays have come to an end: I have to
arrange the babysitter. That takes a lot of energy. I like my job, but to
arrange all this is difficult for me.During these
stressful days she needs the ointment more frequently.
Radium iodatum MKAnalysisThe chosen remedy works fine, but at this moment
she feels stressed and the complaint needs more attention. That is the reason I
chose 1M.Follow upThe remedy worked splendidly. She
didn’t use the ointment for some time. Before visiting the dermatologist she
needed the ointment again. Radium iodatum 30K gave reliefNow she says: “my husband is focussing on me. I think
a lot about our first baby. He is leaving that to me.” Radium iodatum 10MK*AnalysisThe remedy
is working very
well. During this
consultation for the
first time she talks about her
husband. He is focussing on her: in some way she
Radium43is in contact with their first child.
What she is describing in this sentence is that he is focussing on their child
as well, not directly but via her: in a covert (stage 2) way, he is joining
her. For that reason I choose the 10M potenc y.Follow upIt is very good. From
time to time she needs the ointment.There was a big
change and many things happened. The relationship with her husband changed.She
visited a group
of spiritual people
sometimes in the
evening. In the
beginning she went there all alone, but one evening her husband wanted
to go with her.He received news that evening: they
told him that his mother’s pregnancy with
him was a twin pregnancy
with a little
sister. He checked
the information and it was
correct. Since then he is feeling better. He visited a magnetic therapist. The
therapist diagnosed a blockage and this is gone.The
night after the first meeting she had the sensation that someone shook her
hand. “Maybe this was my mother-in-law.”The medium
told them that
their son was
with the mother-in-law. She
died around the same time as they lost the baby.*I recognise in a
potency 10M that two people are sharing symptoms of the remedy. In this case
the history of the loss of a baby is repeating. For the husband it is in his
unconscious, for her it is known. She has the physical symptoms of the remedy.
The potency 10M is helping them both.Follow up -
after five yearsDuring the time I
visited your clinic
I learned a
lot. I learned
from introspection, I learned to
come close to myself. You asked me about the contact with
my first baby.
Someone else put
the same question
and I realised that I really had that contact and
allowed myself to feel it.In the course of time I
recognised that the symptoms of the lichen sclerosis are related to guilty
feelings that remain unconscious. For month I’m free of symptoms
and suddenly it
shows up again.
Now I try to discover
my
The Last Series44guilty feeling
and analyse it. It helps
me to let
it go and
afterwards my complaints disappear.So:
my symptoms of lichen sclerosis help me to free myself of subconscious guilty
feelings.
Radium bromatum is described
as a remedy with good results for complaints after radiotherapy:Short
Case Radium bromatum by Alex LeupenTwo
years ago a 59-year-old man visited my clinic. He was suffering from a leaking
fistula caused by brachytherapy
for cancer of the prostate.
To cure the
fistula he had
six operations without
result. The fistula
leaked continuously, sometimes
watery, sometimes pus. The patient had to wear bandages all the time.I
prescribed Radium bromatum 200K
every week, two granules. After
some days the
fistula was dry
and never leaked
again. The fistula
didn’t disappear, but his quality
of life was much better.
