a deep, sci-fi theory
about the drops
Define ‘Deep’
Think deep like the roots of a tree - well established, fully connected, with potentially wide reaching ripple effects.
2. Define ‘Sci Fi’
We feel enthusiastic about what Ursula le Guin said on the subject.
“If one avoids the linear, progressive, Time’s (killing)-arrow mode of the Techno-Heroic, and redefines technology and science as primarily cultural carrier bag rather than weapon of domination, one pleasant side effect is that science fiction can be seen as a far less rigid, narrow field, not necessarily Promethean or apocalyptic at all, and in fact less a mythological genre than a realistic one.
It’s a strange realism, but it is a strange reality.
Science fiction properly conceived, like all serious fiction, however funny, is a way or trying to describe what is in fact going on, what people actually do and feel, how people relate to everything else in this vast sack, this belly of the universe, this womb of things to be and tomb of things that were, this unending story. In it, as in all fiction, there is room enough to keep even Man where he belongs, in his place in the scheme of things; there is time enough to gather plenty of wild oats and sow them too, and sing to little Oom, and listen to Ool’s joke, and watch newts, and still the story isn’t over. Still there are seeds to be gathered, and room in the bag of stars.”

3. Putting it all together =
We are all impacted by all the vibrations, all of the time. Some are more intense and noticeable than others.
We, humans, are individuals but we impact each other and it seems we are becoming more aware of both local and global disharmony, because we are not, as it has been suggested, a bunch of individuals all competing. We are a group.
From this, collective perspective, taking flower essences regularly could impact how you are feeling AND taking this action, makes it slightly more likely that your neighbour might start taking flower essences too - because they’ll stop you in the street, tell you how well you look - and then you’ll let them in on this inexplicable, unmeasurable, unlikely little product that might be part of the reason you’re glowing differently these days.
This would be you playing your part in an unprecedented and informal experiment to see what happens when lots of people all start feeling more stable, less lonely, and more coherent than ever before.
And perhaps, this is one of the ways we evolve as a species.
