Hirundo rustica and its position in the MAP system

Author | Wyka Feige

ABSTRACT: In a patient presenting with vertigo and marked fatigue, a systematic analysis of the medical history according to Joshi’s MAP system points to the animal class of birds. Her dominant theme of caring for the family corresponds to Level 3, whilst the secondary theme of music as a hobby corresponds to Capacity Level 5. A strong self-confidence as in Stage 10 of the Periodic Table completes the case analysis and enables precise assignment to the species Hirundo rustica. This case serves as a prime example of the practical application of the MAP system.

KEYWORDS: Aves, exhaustion, Hirundo rustica, level, MAP system, Passeriformes, swallow, vertigo, heartburn, stage, birds

Gavia immer – proving and long-term observations

Author | Je Norbu (Jason-Aeric) Huenecke

ABSTRACT: The remedy profile of Gavia immer is developed across various levels of experience, ranging from the biology of the loon to symptoms observed in the proving and verbatim statements of four patients in long-term observations. They share long-standing sadness, isolation, the sense of not belonging and self-reproach, and they carry a loss that predates them, and keeps the authentic self out of sight. The remedy helps them witness life and their inner state without merging and thus deepen their connection to self.

While she has a strong sense of responsibility, she wants to escape those responsibilities and yearns for freedom. This conflict is typical of bird remedies. Qualities like perfection, tenacity and stubbornness and expressions tied to calmness, contentment and serenity lead to the prescription of Gavia immer. Following treatment, the patient regains calm and peace and reclaims her inner strength.
