Comparison. of Loxodonta africana and Lac Loxodonta africana

Comparison. Lacs.

Siehe: Lacs allgemein + Mammalia + Loxodonto africana:

Negativ: Murder and violence, terrible dreams. ‘I do not want to fight, but I have to or I will die. Timelessness/spaced out feeling/strange sensation of mental fuzziness.

Time passing too slow/is distorted. Forgets things/trouble finding things/dullness on mental level and difficult thinking.

Lac loxodonta Africana is a homeopathic medicine concerned with issues regarding Matriarchy and with women needing the support and guidance from other women

during mothering. It is also, due to the subthemes of Murder/Brutality/Violence and Suffering/Homeless, a medicine for trauma around conception and/or gestation.

Lac delphinum is also a medicine with emphasis on the need for group support. The rubric: Tranquillity is to be found in both medicines. Lac delphinum is a medicine

that offers a sense of tranquillity during a time of chaos and has rubrics associated with mothering being an imposition. Can provide a sense of tranquillity and support

during Birth.

African elephant has had its very existence threatened through being maimed or killed by the poachers to obtain the ivory tusks of these beautiful animals.

One of the themes that came through in the proving of this milk was of murder and violence, terrible dreams. The feeling is, ‘I do not want to fight, but I have to or

I will die’. There is a sensation of timelessness with this remedy, a spaced out feeling, a strange sensation of mental fuzziness. Time can feel like it is passing too slowly

or it is distorted in some way.

Forgets things, or has trouble finding things due to the dullness on the mental level and difficulty in thinking. On reading this I was surprised, as the elephant is an

animal that we associate with a good memory, ‘elephants never forget’. Elephants also after one or more of their group have been killed are able to stand on the same

spot a year later and ‘mourn’ for the dead elephant.

Doctrine of Signatures.

Symptoms of insomnia and restlessness while sleeping in the proving of Loxodonta africana correlates with elephants being both nocturnal and diurnal and the fact that

they sleep standing and for only a few minutes at a time. Daydreams of eggs in a variety of animals [stingray/shark/skate/pupating (bag of silk) from a caterpillar to

a butterfly].

Chest: Awareness; heart is beating “As if body is a soft bag”. “My body felt like a big soft bag (dark on the outside; light on the inside) with my heart beating in the

middle of it“.

This is then, perhaps, a remedy for ensuring the well-being of the foetus and for anxiety associated with an inability to conceive; IVF; threatened miscarriage or

proposed abortion (Lac-ory).

Dream: Children; foetuses; abused children. This, in a way, is consistent with Herrick’s nominated themes of: Murder/Brutality/Violence and Suffering/Homeless

It gives some perspective regarding the circumstances surrounding the source of the milk for the Lac loxodonta proving in that the female elephant had just given

birth to her first calf, which had to be euthanized due to a congenital, untreatable deformity.

And it also gives approbation to Herrick’s observation that these aspects of the proving as well as the rubric Dream:

Murder, violent, may derive from a form of morphogenic resonance concerning the brutal culling of elephant herds that occasionally transpires.

The essence of Lac loxodonta Africana concerns Matriarchy and the role that the matriarch has in nurturing her family… the group.

Herrick reminds us that one of the most outstanding characteristics of the elephant is its devotion to its young. Female elephants have many calves over a lifetime;

even bearing young up to the age of 60. The mother stays in constant contact with her calf for the first six months and never lets it out of her sight. The entire herd

is constantly watchful over the calf’s every move… the mere whimper from a calf causes [the whole family] to stop and patiently wait until the problem has been

solved before moving on. Whenever a calf is in frank danger, members of the herd (and perhaps even all the adults in the herd) will work together to save the calf.

Now, with the death of her mother it is her turn to take on the role of matriarch and she feels that she lacks the strength to do that.

Lac loxodonta Africana predominantly a psoric medicine and psora promotes a strong mother/child bond and vacillates between Positiveness (optimism) and Despair.

On the strength of that group of symptoms I was tempted to re-prescribe Phosphorous.

However, with the issue of perceived lack of support, my mind turned to Lac delphinium which Herrick has stated seems very much like Phosphorus.

I have written elsewhere about the ability of Lac delphinium to provide an energetic space for birth support; much as a midwife does.

We discussed the issue and I explained to her how the energy of the milk of the dolphin would hold the space for her to birth knowing that all was well.

Verhaltensforschung Auch Asiens Elefanten haben soziale Netze

Asiatische Elefanten galten lange als unsozial, weil sie nicht so enge Kontakte pflegen wie ihre Verwandten aus Afrika. Forscher beweisen das Gegenteil.

Es ist ein bisschen wie auf Facebook: Manche seiner dortigen "Freunde" sieht man auch im echten Leben oft, andere nur selten. Manche kennt man nur noch entfernt.

Eine ähnliche Staffelung sozialer Beziehungen haben Verhaltensforscher aus Sri Lanka jetzt für Asiatische Elefanten ausgemacht.

Bisher hielt man die Tiere für eher unsozial, weil sie nicht – wie afrikanische Elefanten – in großen, eng verbundenen Herden, sondern in kleinen, wenig vernetzten

Gruppen leben; .

Die neue Studie im Online-Fachblatt BioMed CentraEcology zeigt, dass Asiatische Elefanten genau wie ihre Verwandten in Afrika größere Gruppen bilden, die über mehrere Jahre stabil bleiben.

Dass Asiatische Elefanten in dichten Wäldern leben, erschwert Verhaltensforschern die Arbeit. Um überhaupt Elefanten sehen zu können, mussten Forscher bisher auf Bäume klettern und hoffen, dass Elefanten an Lichtungen oder Wasserlöchern zu sehen sind.

Weil das Zuhause der Großsäuger auf Sri Lanka in den Udawalawe-Nationalpark verwandelt wurde, leben dort seit 30 Jahren 800 bis 1.200 Elefanten in Gras- und Buschland. 286 von ihnen beobachtete ein Team um Shermin da Silva, die an der Pennsylvania-Universität in den USA und auf Sri Lanka arbeitet, jetzt über zwei Jahre. Soziale Beziehungen konnten die Forscher für 51 Elefanten aufzeichnten.

Wie oft treffen sich zwei Elefanten? Wie häufig teilen sie eine Wasserstelle oder den Schatten unter einem Baum? Solche Situationen erfassten die Verhaltensforscher.

"Ob Elefanten vertraut miteinander sind, erkennt man auch an ihrer Körpersprache, an den Augen, der Haltung ihrer Ohren, daran, ob sie etwa ihren Rüssel über den

Rücken des anderen legen", erklärt de Silva.

Die Forscher betrachteten dabei drei verschiedene Ebenen: die Beziehungen zwischen zwei Elefanten, innerhalb einer kleinen Gruppe und innerhalb einer kompletten Population. Sie konnten zeigen, dass die soziale Interaktion abhängig von der jeweiligen Ebene ist. Das heißt: Die Tiere interagieren viel stärker, als das bisher bekannt

war. Wie treu ein Elefant ist, hängt von der Anzahl seiner Freunde ab

In der Trockenzeit hielten die Elefantengruppen stärker zusammen als in Regenzeiten. Nur in der Zweier-Beziehung haben Asiatische Elefanten wohl einen langjährigen Freundeskreis. Außerdem variiert die Treue der Freundschaft von Elefant zu Elefant. Je mehr Freunde eine Elefantenkuh hatte, desto illoyaler war sie und wechselte entsprechend schnell den Freundeskreis. Elefantenkühe mit wenigen Freunden waren am treuesten.

Ob das unerwartete Sozialverhalten auf den veränderten Lebensraum zurückzuführen ist, wissen die Forscher nicht. "Natürlich ist es denkbar, dass sich die Elefanten auf offenem Gelände eher zusammenrotten", sagt da Silva, "aber wir können das nicht herausfinden, weil die Vergleichsmöglichkeiten fehlen."

Auch wenn die Asiatischen Dickhäuter sich nach den neuen Erkenntnissen ähnlich verhalten wie ihre Artgenossen in der Afrikanischen Savanne, ist ihr Sozialverhalten schwächer ausgeprägt.

Die Fähigkeit, soziale Beziehungen über längere Zeit aufrecht zu erhalten – ohne, dass täglicher Kontakt besteht – erfordert eine gewisse Intelligenz. Elefanten sehen nur sehr schlecht, ihre Artgenossen erkennen sie über den Geruch und die Stimme. Außerdem gelten sie als geistig hoch entwickelt, sodass solche komplexen sozialen Beziehungen durchaus möglich sind.

Als nächstes wollen die Forscher auf Sri Lanka herausfinden, wie eng verwandt die beobachteten Tiere sind. Da es in der aktuellen Studie nur um Weibchen ging, folgt außerdem eine Untersuchung, die gezielt das Sozialverhalten männlicher Asiatischer Elefanten untersucht.

Dr Nancy Herrick conducted the proving of Lac Loxodonta Africana, milk of an African elephant in 1995.

A variety of themes arose including homelessness, brutality, violence, murder and not enough food that reflected the conditions of living that the elephant experienced. A more natural state was also noted with themes and interests in air, water, food, feeding others and a feeling of positive emotions, timelessness and theorizing about the substance (Herrick, 1998:54).

Provings of indigenous substances are of great importance as was noted by Sherr, who stated that, the most significant and appropriate medicine will be found within our surrounding environment (Sherr, 1994:49).
