Theridion curassavicum Anhang

 

[Sankaran)

Theridion is a remedy of the spider group. It is closely allied to Tarantula, and belongs to the tubercular miasm. It shares with other remedies of the spider group a highly sensitive nervous system and prominent features such as hyperactivity, sexuality, colors, music, dancing and high energy.

Also present fears of being trapped, caught and of being killed. The remedy also manifests hurried and hectic activity, and this fits into my understanding of the tubercular miasm. In fact Tarantula and Theridion often compare with Tuberculinum children because of this intense restlessness. This idea is confirmed by the fact that Phatak in his Materia Medica mentions Theridion as having a tubercular diathesis.

Always very busy, fruitlessly busy. Very prominent in the Theridion woman seems to be the need to find a mate, because she feels that if she doesn't have a mate she will

have to face the danger of the outside world, which is too threatening. So there is a need to be attractive and a lot of hectic activity to find, attract and keep her mate.

Music, dancing and colors are a part of this attractiveness, whereas fear and impulsive violence are a part of the threat. Besides the need for a partner, a peculiar feature

of Theridion is that she seems to completely "dissolve" her identity into that of her partner, thinking and seeing as her partner does, living completely through the eyes and mind of this other person. In the event of her partner leaving her, she feels a tremendous emptiness and it takes time for her to know her real self again. Theridion has the delusion that her head belongs to another.

In some cases, I have found Theridion persons to have a fear of people (when they are alone). When approached by people they feel threatened and want to strike or kill,

and they have to control themselves so that they do not.

These features I have seen also in Tarantula and they seem to be common to this group of remedies. I have seen in Theridion an intense aggravation from noise, startles

from noise, nausea from noise. There is a strong craving for bananas and oranges. The physical symptom of Theridion that I have verified in practice has to do with its

cough: "Cough, violent, jerking of the head forward and the knees upward" and "Cough, jerking the body together".

Rubrics:

• Busy, fruitless.

• Confusion of mind, sense of identity, duality, “As if head separated from mind”.

• Delusion - “As if being double”/ “As if head belongs to another”/ “As if head separated from body”

• Fear, noise, from.

• Loquacity - busy/excited.

• Restlessness, busy.

• Sensitive, oversensitive - to slightest noise/to shrill sounds/to striking of clocks, ringing of bells, 

• Singing.

• Starting from noise

• Nausea from noise

Theridion is a remedy to think of in babies born with vacuum-extraction with a strong sensitivity to noise.

 

There is quite a lot of literature on Theridion:

Massimo Mangialavori and Hardy are both authors who are worth reading, as well as the older authors
