Tarantula Kind Anhang

 

[Elaine Lewis]

The common symptoms of bad behaviour aren’t going to help you in these cases of badly behaved children.  All these kids hit.  They all throw tantrums.  They’re all defiant.

They all demand your constant attention, are easily frustrated, break things, throw things, scream, have short attention spans and crave sweets.  Another typical complaint

you hear is about clothing. The seams bother them, their socks bother them, they may only be able to wear one thing,over and over again. They can be equally as fussy about

food–the food can’t touch the other food, the texture has to be smooth, and so on. So, none of this is going to help you find a remedy. You have to take a complete case, and

then look at what is left after you clear away all the common symptoms of these children.

Tarent. child can be very destructive and hyperactive; but, how do you know it’s Tarentula?  In the last Tarentula case I took, the case was solved by observing that the child

only flew into a rage if there was an audience! (“When there are no observers, there is no hysteria.”–Murphy’s Materia Medica.)  She had a fear of spiders, which was the first

clue I had; she was calmed by music but < loud noises (music) in general.  This speaks to the sensitive hearing that spider remedies have (sensitive to noise). She was chilly–

typical of Tarentula but peculiar in children as children tend to be warm-blooded, making chilliness a good confirmatory symptom for Tarentula. 

Essentially, Tarent. child is the kid from hell. Will hit another child for absolutely no reason and is jealous of any attention paid to a sibling. They’re not affectionate, even with

their parents and grandparents. They’re aggressive, violent, biting, scratching, destructive and impossible to be with. Hyperactive too, very speedy. Tarantula people will become

exasperated if you’re moving too slow! They won’t hesitate to hurry you up. The kids order the adults around, barking orders at them; but barking is interesting because they’re

afraid of dogs and the dark too. You may think of Stram. but then you notice that the child loves to sing and dance; in fact, music, singing and dancing may be the only

thing that makes the child happy! The child may insist on dancing naked; but, it’s not Hyos., as Hyos. can be very affectionate, almost too affectionate with strangers; but,

Tarentula is not affectionate at all. They are rude, demanding and contrary!

 

Loves to listen to fast rock-and-roll music

 

ADHS:

Tarantula hispanica. LM12 Dil Arcana, C12 – C200 Glob. (var. manufacturers) 5 drops/day or single doses

Extreme and destructive forms of hyperactive behavior point to here.

This homeopathic remedy is derived from a poisonous spider, the Spanish tarantula and exerts an exciting action

on the rhythmic system. It is suitable for girls and boys with pronounced constitutional ADHD: They appear

constitutionally strong and have inexhaustible energy which enables them to blithely ignore all inner and outer

obstacles, as immediately becomes clear at the doctor's office:

• they like to dance and climb

• they can behave deviously and even deceitfully, stealing and breaking things

• they are constantly asking for attention

• reprimands are manifestly pointless and make no impression on these children

• a point to note: they may be subject to fear of spiders and insects

• in the respiratory realm one sometimes notes the development of stuttering and asthma.

Extreme, destructive hyperactivity, overwhelming urge to move
