In traditional medicine the inner bark of Larch was used externally to treat eczema and psoriasis and internally to treat haemorrhages and cystitis. It was also used as a stimulant expectorant for chronic bronchitis. The wearing or burning of Larch was though to protect against evil spirits.
Larch trees shed their needles every year. Before this could happen, they turn a characteristic and this feature was utilised in the 1930s when the Nazis planted larch trees to form the swastika shape in a evergreen pine forest. The 200-foot swastika, that was only visible from the air was located in 1992. First attempts to remove it were unsuccessful, after Larch tees regrew and there were disputes over the property ownership. However, German authorities removed 20 of the trees in 2000, finally disrupting the symbol, fearing the site in Brandenburg Forest might become a rallying point for neo-Nazis.
Larch relates to the soul quality of self-confidence. We take this remedy when we lose confidence and don’t trust our abilities or when you don’t believe we will be successful.The Larch remedy gives us the confidence .Dr Bach first prepared the Larch remedy near Sotwell in 1935.
The flower of Larch opens at the time when the needles just become visible as tiny bright green tufts. Individuals who require Larch frequently exhibit a delicate psychological makeup, much like the delicate structure of the Larch tree itself. This makes them vulnerable to negative influences and lacking in robustness and decisiveness. It's unfortunate because these individuals are often just as capable, or even more capable, than their peers. It's a pity that they are frequently ignored, despite their potential to be equally or more competent.
