Yarrow is a good choice for people who feel there
are important parts of themselves missing, or lost;
people who don't feel complete; people who are
constantly searching for something that would make
them complete; and those who feel they have lost
contact somewhere with something important but they
don't know what it might be.
There once was a young woman who always felt as though
she was a stranger in her own home. Even though her
family was very kind, she felt like a visitor, as though
she didn't belong. She often wondered what was wrong
with her, and the sense of being in the wrong time or
the wrong place somehow permeated everything, made
everything unreal. Her father died, and then her mother;
and she was given the charge of their home.
Amongst the papers and other things,
there was a strange old key. It was very big and the
young woman knew immediately what it belonged to - there
was a big old box with iron wrappings in the attic she
had seen when she was a child. She hurried with the key
and climbed into the attic, unlocked the box, and inside
it found proof that she was not the child of these
parents, but that a king with a baby in his arms had
come calling one stormy night, driven out by
revolutionaries, and had begged them to take care of his
only daughter.
They had taken the baby and he had been
caught and killed the very next day. And with this
knowledge, her life made sense, and from that moment
forth, she had a life. |
