Verärgert/Vexed

Vergleich: Siehe: Gemütsverfassingen

Gallegruppe

Puls. Dr. Rajan: "Avoiding situations which cause vexation". (Stage 3)

Disappointment. Failure. Fright, Fear, Grief. Affectionate. Jealous.

[Scholten]

DD.: Lactic acid, "The girl that never grows up". Berylium is also yielding. These both suggest an affinity with Stage 2 of the Carbon Series. The most yielding and hesitant remedy of the Ferrum Series is Vanadium at Stage 5.

Some ambitious Pulsatilla people have an affinity with the Silver Series - Ailments from literary or scientific failure. Cautious and easily discouraged (trifles), which strikes Yttrium at Stage 3.

Can be religious but their spirituality has a doubting and fearful aspect; consider Lanthanum (Stage 3) who feels confused and insecure about his Self and also Cerium who wants to be autonomous but feels too frightened and vulnerable, and like Puls, gives way to trying to please others.

Acon.: [Dr. Rajan] "Suddenly and deeply vexed".

Act-s.: (Stage 5) Dr. Rajan: "Trying not to be vexed".

Desires company. Fear of being alone, of death.

Egotism. Obstinate. Hysteria. Libertinism.

Despair about trifles. Lamenting. Loathing of life.

Self-deception. Delusion: Everything will fail.

DD.: Stage 5: Vanadium - postponing work. Niobium - postponing creation. Praseodymium - hesitating to be autonomous.

Ran-b (Stage 8) Dr. Rajan: "Intermittantly vexed".

Ailments from emotions. Sadness. Alcoholism.

Ambition. Hurry. Anxiety and Fear of falling, of work.

Sensitive. Cowardice - delusion of being at war.

Despair and Loathing. Abusive. Censorious. Sardonic.

DD.: Stage 8: Ferrum - persevering at work. Ruthenum - persevering with ideas. Samarium - forcing yourself to be independent.

Staph.: (Stage 10) Dr. Rajan: "Keeping control in vexing situations".

Alcoholism. Loss of control. Sexual Abuse. Aversion to women/men.

Shame. Silent Grief. Anger. Egotism. Indignation and wounded honour.

Is above reproach. Delusion: Others are low while he is great (Plat-met.) (Stage 10). Also is an affinity with Arg-met. (Stage 11), who holds on to his creative accomplishments.

[Dr Scholten] interesting affinity with Mag-lac., his "difficult little girl", Stage 2 - Silica Series; Staph. children who have been dominated (loss of control) can get quite

upset (mortification) and become angry and abusive. But Magnesiums more frightened of abandonment than Staph. is.

[Dr Scholten] Like Staph., Sil-child can be quite indignant little "victim" - pointing back to Stage 10 again!

So what is Staph. like in her work environment (Ferrum Series)? Ailments (such as suppressed anger) from reprimands or reproaches from loss of position, reverse of fortune and wounded honour. Ferrums hate criticism and failure. Jan gives, "must be on top and have everything under control", for Niccolum (Carcinosin, verily)! Niccolum has

a sense of nobility about his work. Would a wounded Staph. look like Cupr-met. (rubric, paralyis from anger) or even Zinc-met. (Delusions, smaller)?

The artistic and creative Staph. (ability for art) might look like Palladium (Delusions, tall) or Arg-met. (above). Is there an autonomous, self-realised Staph? If so she would look like Gadolinium, Self-centered and self-fullfilled, and in control of her autonomy. She would hate anything that disturbed her balance and harmony. Sounds like the familiar Staph?

Cimic.: (Stage 13) Dr. Rajan: "Trapped and oppressed by a vexing situation".

Alcoholism

Dejected. Disappointed love.

Enveloped by dark clouds. Despair. Suicidal.

Egotism.

DD.: Stage 13: Gallium - Work, nostalgia for old methods. Indium - outdated art. Thallium - dogmatic leadership. Holmium - bitter.

Hell.: (Stage 15) [Dr. Rajan] "Insensitive and blunted by vexation".

Alcoholism. Homesick. Suicidal

Brooding. Contemptuous. Religious Despair. Prophesying.

Feels Lost or Persued. Fear of evil.

Indifferent to family. Envy - seeing others happy.

DD.: Stage 15: Ars. - Redundancy. Antimony - loss of creativity. Bismuth - loss of power. Thullium - loss of Self - anniliation.

Clem.: (Stage 16) Me: "Overcome by vexation".

Grief. Misanthropy. Hiding. Homesickness.

Amoral. Heedless. Loss of will and ambition. Despair.

Thoughts of death. Longing for the repose of death.

Fear of people. Delusion: Falling.

DD.: Stage 16: Selenium - Indifferent to your task. Tellurium - neglecting creativity. Polonium - lost power. Ytterbium - Decaying autonomy.
