Ghosts show up mainly in the following mind rubrics (from Murphy, Phatak, & Knerr, Boericke, Boger — all level 3 unless otherwise mentioned) and I chose to compare a few commonly found homeopathic remedies which popped up in the repertory:

• Delusions/hallucinations of specters, ghosts and spirits
  • Belladonna (4), Phosphorus & Stramonium
• Fear of ghosts
  • Arsenicum album, Carbo vegetabilis, Lycopodium, Phosphorus, Pulsatilla & Stramonium
• Dreams of ghosts
  • Camphora (Knerr’s only level 4, and I love me some Knerr suggestions!), Carbo vegetabilis, Kali carb & Phosphorus
• Horrid dreams of ghosts - Chamomilla (only a level 1 rubric, but an important rubric, I think, from Knerr)

I’m not surprised to see all these show up — this is basically a good list of “scared” remedies*.

Arsenicum album
I think of Arsenicum album more of an anxious remedy, but it’s right there big and bold in Murphy’s large general fears and phobias rubric. Arsenicum album is afraid of being alone and dying alone (yet, they may be averse to company, too; in fact, they may desire company but fear them, at the same time). They may be afraid when going to sleep.

• Fear of: ghosts and monsters, night time, snakes and worms and being poisoned (every Halloween I received the warning to not eat the non-wrapped candy from people I didn’t know lecture!)
• There may be restlessness or panic attacks and a desire to hide along with disturbed sleep.

💀 Halloween connection: Think of them actually haunting a house — they are anxious and restless and pacing the halls. They are worse at the witching hour with a midnight aggravation. They are afraid of death and being left alone — they are sure the night is going to kill them.

Belladonna
is also a bold level 3 in Murphy’s general fears and phobias rubric. In particular, Belladonna is afraid of animals (real and imaginary); fears while in bed; of coughing; of death and, imaginary things, think: ghosts and monsters.

• You know what I see in this list? Scared children**! Belladonna is an excellent remedy for children in general, so it makes sense. They (children and adults, actually) may jump out of bed from their fear, they may startle easily; they may wet themselves from fear and they may have the desire to hide and, not surprisingly with this list… their sleep may be disturbed from fear.
• Another important rubric for Belladonna and fear is ailments from fear — lingering fears causing problems down the road.
• Interesting tidbit: Apparently, Belladonna was one of the standard ingredients in the witch’s flying ointment which facilitated the hallucinations of flight — hence the witches flying theme.

🧙 Halloween connection: Think of the wide-eyed little one (Belladonna is known for their dilated pupils), jumping out of their (wet) bed, looking for a place to hide, while still wearing their witch costume.

Camphora
is not my first thought for scared remedies, but I trust Knerr, so let’s take a look. Camphora is afraid of the dark and being left alone, especially at night (Ars, Phos, Stram) and being in bed, alone, on going to sleep. They are afraid of their own thoughts. A hall of mirrors might be too much for this person. And, they might just have the poop scared out of them, literally (Ars, Puls). Visions of ghosts and spirits may show up in their sleep.

☠️ Halloween connection: Sensory horror. Oversensitivity to noise and light, startles easily, and a fear of ghosts and of being alone in the dark. The picture that shows up from the proving is a little like someone visiting a haunted house.

Another thought is embalming and the morgue. Camphor has been used as a deodorizer for the sickroom. The remedy is known to be cold to the touch, like a corpse. Camphor is a classic remedy for collapse, sudden chill and the sense that the body is shutting down and for coldness in spots (as if a part has already died).

Carbo vegetablis
is another remedy I would think of more for anxiety, but it, too is big and bold in Murphy’s general fears and phobias rubric, including the fear of ghosts… and monsters.

• Some smaller Carb-v fear rubrics:
  • fear when closing their eyes
  • fear after eating (Lyc)
  • fear after waking at night (Lyc, Phos)
  • fear of appearing in public (Lyc)… bashful trick or treaters, perhaps?
  • fear before sleep (Ars, Phos, Puls)
  • fear of strangers (Lyc, Puls, Stram)

Carbo veg isn’t the first remedy I would think of for fears, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a good one to try, especially if they have some keynotes of Carb-v in general:

• a sense of fullness in the abdomen (Lyc)
• complaints after food
• ailments from food poisoning (Ars, Puls)
• gasping for air (Ars, Lyc)

They may fear a little something might escape involuntarily while tooting or urinating (Phos).

🎃 The Halloween connection: Carbo-veg is made from rot and putrefaction and this connects to the digestive keynotes of foul gas, bloating and a feeling of inner decay.

Another thought is the pumpkin with a candle in it — left to rot and the oxygen is all gone, the jack-o-lantern gasping for air.

Chamomilla
might be a reluctant trick or treater with their fear of people (Lyc), or approaching others (Ars, Stram)… or, having others approach them (Stram), too. They, too are afraid of imaginary things and night time and the wind (Ars, Lyc, Puls), but for Chamomilla, this fear of night might be heightened during pains, especially teething. Their fears may be overpowering to them (Bell, Carb-v, Puls). Chamomilla’s boldest fear rubrics are being touched and shaking with fear.

👻 Halloween connection: To remember Chamomilla, think of the screaming child — the child who is furious and inconsolable and wants to constantly be carried and who screams more when they are put down. The temper tantrum that occurs when the little trick-or-treater is having a meltdown. They are hyper sensitive to pain and the itchy costume as well as the whole night in general might be too much for them.

Kali carb
may have some sadness (Ars, Lyc) and tears (Ars) with their fear. Their fear of being alone may be ameliorated by holding mom’s hand (Lyc, Puls, Stram). They might want to be alone, but that’s too scary, but being with people is too much (Ars, Lyc, Stram)… that’s a scary vicious circle on Halloween night! Like Chamomilla, they don’t don’t want anyone near them for fear of being touched (Stram) or being struck by someone coming toward them (Bell, Stram). Birds, real and imagined; lying down in bed; monsters and they may dream of ghosts.

• Kali carbs might be constantly fearful (Ars, Phos, Puls). They may be afraid of being physically (or emotionally) hurt. Their fear may be felt in the stomach.
• Kali carb’s boldest fears for Halloween are being alone and being startled.

👻 Halloween connection: Think of the last of the pack of trick or treaters, alone in the dark, jumping at the slightest noise, imagining they’ve been jabbed or struck with something. They are chilly and can’t wait to get back to their warm home and eat their highly anticipated sweet treats.

Lycopodium
is a big, bold and underlined fearful remedy. They are afraid of being outside (agoraphobia) (Ars, Stram) and being alone but to make matters worse, they might want to be alone but they are also averse company (Ars, Stram). The Lycopodium child may want to hold mom’s hand (Puls, Stram). They may fear being away from home (Ars). They may be fearful in bed, but they may also wet the bed (but they might also be fearful of wetting the bed). They may fear bugs (Ars, Puls, Stram) and cats (Stram) and crowds, and public places (Phos, Puls) and monsters and the dark. Sadness or depression with their fear (Ars, Kali-c). Fearful after eating (Carb-v). Constant fear of everything (Ars, Phos, Puls, Stram).

A few stranger fears of Lycopodium which may be troublesome on Halloween:

• Doors… doorbells ringing and opening doors
• of being embarrassed or humiliated (Puls) or judged
• meeting their friends
• being late
• being looked at (Ars) or appearing in public (Carb-v) or speaking in public, think having to say, “trick or treat” to a stranger.
• losing, misplacing something (Ars)
• they may awaken fearful in the morning
• new persons
• opinion of others (Puls)
• being rejected (Cham)
• being ridiculed
• saying something wrong
• shadows, even his own
• walking in the open air
• there may be fear in the pit of their stomach
• Unusually, though, someone in need of Lycopodium may only be fearful during the daytime.
  
  🎃 Halloween connection: This is the person who talks big about Halloween night, but when push comes to shove, they are secretly terrified: they are loud and boisterous with others but under that brave costume, they are terribly anxious. They are nervous as can be before anything requiring a performance — anticipatory anxiety, think: ringing the doorbell. Then there’s the gut — bloating and distention and their eyes are bigger than their stomach.

Phosphorus
is one of our “scarediest” remedies. Once again, they are afraid of being alone… in the dark… at night.

Ghosts and insects and monsters (Ars, Puls, Stram), rats and noises (Stram) are all overpowering, causing them to cry (Ars) and startle. If there is a thunderstorm on the way, watch out. And, watch out cuz there might be some diarrhea (Ars, Puls) with a Phosphorus fear.
They have terrible dreams and they may jump when they are touched (Bell).

Being in crowds, crossing the street, electricity and even their friends.
Causeless fear, cemeteries, and waiting for something to come creeping out of the corner (are all shared with Stramonium).

👻 Halloween connection: White phosphorus glows green in the dark — one of the closest things science has to offer as a ghost — if one sees ghosts everywhere, that can lead one to being fearful all the time (Ars, Puls)… of everything. Phosphorus was what was on the match heads — think of lightning (Bell) and the startling response it can cause.

Pulsatilla​
Ghosts are a big one for Pulsatilla with visions, fears and dreams of them. Puls also has a big fear of being alone but more specific to Pulsatilla is the fear of being abandoned or being left alone (Ars, Camph) or neglected (Ars). Yet, they may be afraid of people. Going to sleep (Ars, Phos), bugs, spiders (Stram) and snakes (Ars), too.

• If it’s a crowded, chilly, windy, twilight evening for tricks or treats and there are monsters around, that might be a problem. Or, if they are fearful of eating [their candy, for istance] (Ars).
• Ailments from fear (Lyc). They most likely don’t want to be the subject of conversation, possibly for fear of being humiliated. Constant fear (Ars, Kali-c). Mirrors are a problem (Camph, Stram).
• An unusual rubric for Pulsatilla is the fear of being taken by the devil.

🎃 Halloween connection: October is considered a windy month in many places —as the fall winds usher in the new season — windy and unsettled, just like Pulsatilla. They are weeping and clinging and need their hand held as they make their way through the haunted house or through the neighborhood streets.

Stramonium
can be an angry remedy and their fear might alternate with rage (Bell).

They are afraid of being alone, wanting to hold mom’s hand (Kali-c, Puls) and want light and company (Bell) and they are better from company (Ars, Bell). Stramonium is our biggest fear of the dark in this group of remedies.

Halloween must be a tough day for someone in need of Stramonium. They have a fear of something creeping out from every corner (Phos). They are afraid of black/dark colors (Ars). And, don’t post them next to someone who is dressed as Big Bird — they have a fear of feathers, too. Bugs, flies, spiders, cats (Lyc), ghosts, monsters, wolves (Bell), graves and cemeteries (Phos). You might want to skip the hall of mirrors, lest he should see himself.

Their fear of animals and dogs…especially black dogs (Bell)… goes further than our other remedies in that they fear being devoured by them (Bell). There is a fear of being attacked or bitten (Bell) and hallucinations of being pursued by ghosts.

😱 Halloween connection: Nightmares! They are terrorized in the dark and need some company and some light (but not direct light).

Witches
My favorite witch is named Hazel — Hamamelis virginiana (aka, Witch Hazel). Back to Vermeulen for some information on Hamamelis, (this time from Prisma), who surmises the connection to witches comes from “the peculiar ‘magical’ seed dispersal of the plant: their expulsion takes place with such force that it suggests witchcraft.… Another explanation is the use of the twigs by the early settlers in Virginia [in about 1700] for water divining and for discovering precious metals.”
He goes on to say that others dispute the origin of the name and posit that “it comes from the word ‘wych,’ which has nothing to do with witches but is related to Anglo-Saxon ‘wicken’, to bend, or Old English ‘wich,’ quick or loving, or possibly even to the modern word, ‘switch.’”

Another witchy connection is with Stramonium (see above). Alphonse Teste says, “Thron-apple, vulgarly termed stinkweed and witch-herb, on account of the fantastic visions which these poor imbeciles procured with it, and which they believed to be real.” (See also, Anger & Fear for more on Stramonium.)

Gibson tells us: “All down history the various species of Datura*** have been used as medicaments and intoxicants. The medieval witches’ salves consisted primarily of black henbane and thom-apple; the hallucinations they produced were considered to have been real even after the intoxication and mental derangement had worn off.” Apparently, Stramonium was part of the recipe to make people think they were flying.

​​Are witches in the repertory, too? Yup. Again, from Murphy:
Dreams of witches: Agaricus and Stramonium.
​
Agaricus muscarius is a bit of a spooky remedy in itself, so let’s take a very quick look at it. Agaricus is made from the mushroom of fairy tales. Don’t let the jolly red cap fool you, though, cuz it’s poisonous.

​Let’s begin this conversation by establishing what a materia medica actually is.

A materia medica is a body of collected knowledge about substances used as medicines: their origins, their properties, the preparation and how they are used to treat illness/injury.

Materia medicas/medicae are nothing new — Dioscorides’ De Materia Medica dates to the 1st century AD. With such a long history, it’s no surprise there are many to choose from!

Homeopathically though, the first one was Samual Hahnemann’s Materia Medica Pura which was published in six volumes between 1811 and 1821 and covered around 60 substances.

On the other end of the spectrum, Robin Murphy’s Nature’s Materia Medica (4th edition) covers 1,500 homeopathic and herbal remedies. (The first edition was published in 1995 as The Homeopathic Remedy Guide.)

Frequent readers of Ruminating on Remedies will know that I am a big fan of Dr. Murphy’s materia medica and repertory. One of the main reasons for this is that he incorporates material from many other materia medica authors: Boericke, Clarke, Phatak, and others and puts their words into more modern language.

In addition to the materia medicas/e proper, there are also a slew of specific titles which would fall under the materia medica umbrella but are not addressed here. These are more specific tomes, such as: Mangialavori’s Milk Remedies and Vermeulen’s Fungi and Klein’s Orchids in Homeopathy.

With that bit of background, let’s dive into a few of my favorite materia medicas/e (alphabetically by author). (The prices I grabbed are all accurate at the time of writing (either from the author’s website when available or from Amazon US) and please remember there are many more used options available at lesser prices!)

Note #1: All of these books essentially give the same information — it’s just the depth of that information and how it is presented. To keep comparisons on an even footing, I used Belladonna as my test remedy.
Note #2: I aimed these selections at home users and did not address the fantastic, deeper works of many other homeopaths like Frans Vermeulen or George Vithoulkas or Bönninghausen, for example.

• H. C. Allen’s Key-notes Rearranged & Classified: With Leading Remedies of the Materia Medica & Bowel Nosodes
  • Why I like it:
    • Not a lot of books include information on bowel nosodes.
    • It also includes a handful of sarcodes and nosodes.
    • It is as it says — keynotes, meaning that the descriptions are kept short and sweet.
  • How many remedies*?
    • 188
  • What I don’t like about it:
    • I have no complaints about this book.
  • Is it worth the $15.89 (or, $3.99 Kindle)?
    • Sure thing, especially with the bowel nosode information.

 

• *William Boericke’s New Manual of Homeopathic Materia Medica with Repertory
  • Why I like it:
    • Nice info at the end of each remedy listing more complete remedy relationship information than most of the other books mentioned here.
    • It also provides further information, like non-homeopathic uses which can be interesting.
  • How many remedies*?
    • ~600
  • What I don’t like about it:
    • My copy (purchased in 2014) has some major printing errors making it pretty unreliable.
  • Is it worth the $27.70?
    • That broken copy certainly wasn’t worth it.
    • For this article, I relied on the Kindle edition of Boericke’s Collected Works of Boericke: Homeopathy Materia Medica & Repertory ($8.99).
      • One Amazon review mentions “it is missing huge chunks of material, especially from the respiratory section.” With this knowledge, I looked a little closer at my Kindle copy and something definitely feels off about it.
      • Based on this review, I searched “respiratory” and though I didn’t click on all 81 respiratory links, I don’t see any evidence of a repertory in my copy.
    • It would not be my first choice.

 

• C.M. Boger’s A Synoptic Key of the Materia Medica: Including A Brief Repertory
  • Why I like it:
    • It’s succint.
      • Even an enormous remedy like Belladonna is just a page and a half.
      • After the name of the remedy, it lists the “sphere of action” and aggravations and ameliorations.
    • It lists a couple of related and complementary remedies to compare.
    • The brief repertory is a nice addition, making this a basic “one and done” book on the shelf.
  • How many remedies*?
    • 323
  • What I don’t like about it:
    • As you can see by how I am writing this article, I like bullet points and lists. This book has each remedy written as one big paragraph.
  • Is it worth the many varied prices?
    • Yes.
      • I see it ranging on Amazon from $16.95 to $27 to a $40 leather bound version. There is also a Kindle version for $2.99 — making it searchable!!
    • Note: My hard copy says “rearranged & augmented edition” on the top. Are there other less pleasing versions out there? Perhaps.

 

• John Henry Clarke’s A Dictionary of Practical Materia Medica (accessed through Radar Opus software for this review)
  • What I like:
    • Each remedy begins with a list of clinical applications, providing a quick overview of how the remedy can be used.
    • It contains a lot of information!
    • Fortunately, Clarke breaks all this information into bodily systems.
  • How many remedies*?
    • 1,000+
  • What I don’t like:
    • It contains a lot of information! You have to be dedicated to dig through pages and pages of information.
    • Unlike most of these books, Clarke leaves the “Generalities” section until near the end of the write up. I find it more useful to read the generalities at the beginning to get a feel for the remedy right off the bat.
  • Is it worth the $44.95?
    • This 3 volume set is for someone who is really interested in homeopathy. I have this set but it has been relegated to a back cupboard because it is available in my homeopathic software which I find much easier to dig through.
    • Also available on Kindle for $7.99-$9.99 per volume.

 

• Constantine Hering’s The Guiding Symptoms of Our Materia Medica (accessed through Radar Opus software for this review)
  • Why I like it:
    • You don’t just get “head” as a heading; you get “outer head” and “inner head” and “upper face” and “lower face” — it really walks through the entire body, section by section.
    • There is a lot of information in this 10-volume set. I have this set but it has been relegated to a back cupboard because it is available in my homeopathic software which I find much easier to dig through.
  • How many remedies*?
    • ~400 (I didn’t believe Venice’s answer of ~200, so I turned to Grok for another opinion)
  • What do I not like about it:
    • It’s very wordy.
  • Is it worth $170?
    • It is an investment but it holds a lifetime of learning.
    • It’s available for free online here.

 

• James Tyler Kent’s Repertory of the Homoeopathic Materia Medica
  • Why I like it:
    • It’s often available for free online.
  • How many remedies*?
    • Again, I’m getting conflicting information here, but I’m going to go with Grok’s ~650.
  • What do I not like about it:
    • Descriptions like the following: “Brainy people have complaints coming on suddenly…” I don’t love restricting remedies to “brainy” people or “plethoric, vigorous individuals and intellectual people.”
    • At least the Kindle version reads as a list — it isn’t broken out by body system. You have to read a lot of pages to get to the same information that other materia medicas mentioned here will give you in a concise writing.
  • Is it worth $97.60?
    • Nope. But, it’s often available for much less money, including the Kindle version for $1.47 and online for free.

 

• Adolph Von Lippe’s Keynotes & Redline Symptoms of Materia Medica
  • Why I like it:
    • It’s keynotes and redline symptoms — nothing but the highlights here.
    • Most of the symptoms listed also include a list of other remedies to compare alongside which is very helpful.
  • How many remedies*?
    • ~300
  • What do I not like about it:
    • It’s a little scattered — it’s not separated by body parts.
  • Is it worth the $29?
    • Probably.
      • Kindle 99¢ — an absolute no brainer!

 

• Maha Mansour’s The Visual Homeopathic Materia Medica - Part One
  • Why I like it:
    • It’s different.
    • The pictures make it a little more accessible.
    • A good option for teaching homeopathy to kids.
  • How many remedies*?
    • ~55
  • What do I not like about it:
    • If I had to guess, I would say it is AI generated.
      • Having said that, I see these posted individually on Instagram and they always get my attention.
  • Is it worth the $39.99?
    • I don’t think so.
    • Kindle price is $16.99 and that price may be more worth it but it depends on your tastes.

 

• Roger Morrison’s Desktop Guide to KeyNotes & Confirmatory Symptoms was a required necessity in my early days of homeopathic learning at Homeopathy School International.
  • Why I like it:
    • It’s laid out simply.
      • Bold type is used effectively.
    • It doesn’t overwhelm with information.
    • There is a brief overview of (most) remedies which immediately gives you the feeling of what’s behind the remedy and where it may be useful.
    • It provides a few remedies which are good comparisons or considered complementary.
    • It provides a nice list where the remedy would be useful, clinically speaking.
  • How many remedies?
    • ~300
  • What do I not like about it?
    • As you dig deeper into homeopathy, it feels a little limited, but it’s an excellent place to start.
  • Is it worth the $68?
    • Absolutely, especially if you are interested in learning more than casual home prescribing.
  
  
  Dr. Morrison has a fabulous new (2025) version called Clinically Verified Materia Medica. The problem with this one is only volume 1 has been published so far (Abelmoschus - Euphrasia), and it’s pretty spendy at $140. He also authored a very useful Desktop Companion To Physical Pathology ($79) which I also like — more of a repertory than a materia medica, though.

 

• S.R. Phatak’s Materia Medica of Homoeopathic Medicines
  • Why I like it:
    • Let me begin by saying that I love my petite hardcover copy of this book. It has a bold red sticker on the inside front cover saying, “One Week Loan” and all the date stamps of people who checked it out from University of Westminster from 2002 to 2005.
    • Using my Belladonna example, Phatak gives us about 4 compact pages of descriptive information.
  • How many remedies?
    • ~300
  • What I don’t like about it:
    • The print might be a little small for some people’s liking (but this could just be my copy).
  • Is it worth the $22.50?
    • This title is often available at heavily discounted pricing, but it’s definitely worth the $22.50.
    • $5.99 Kindle edition.

• Richard Pitt’s Therapeutic Guide & Thematic Materia Medica of Homeopathic Medicine.
  • Let me begin by saying that I first learned of Richard Pitt through his “Comparative Materia Medica” ($60) which I absolutely love. But, that’s a different beast than we are talking about today.
  • Why I like it:
    • The first “Generalities” paragraph provides a very nice overview of each remedy.
    • This is also a repertory and a therapeutic guide. The introduction says: “The idea of a therapeutic guide is to find practical and efficient ways to select a homeopathic remedy for practitioners predominantly working in a busy, clinical environment.” The conditions listed range from allergies and the common cold to teething to shingles to tinnitis.
      • In other words, this is a book which goes beyond basic home prescribing.
      • Very useful chapters of “Accidents, Injuries and Trauma,” “Female Conditions,” and “Infectious and Tropical Conditions.”
    • Following the materia medica is a nice section of about 20 pages giving quick therapeutic remedy pictures.
      • Listing the name of the remedy, followed by the common name of the substance with a list of conditions, key symptoms and a few comparison remedies.
      • The next chapter gives a brief overview of “Indications for some unusual and specific remedies.”
        • These are indeed primarily “unusual” remedies as well as sarcodes, nosodes and bowel nosodes.
    • The end of the book is an abridged Kent’s repertory.
  • How many remedies*?
    • ~150
  • What I don’t like about it:
    • I like this book. The only thing I can say here is that the author has since divided this book into two pieces (though this version is still available) and I have a little FOMO about what I might be missing in: Thematic Materia Medica, Volume 1 ($40) and Clinical Therapeutics of Homeopathic Medicine ($40).
  • Is it worth the $50?
    • Absolutely.

 

• Robin Murphy’s Nature’s Materia Medica (4th edition)
  • Why I like it:
    • It is very complete!
      • Keeping with the Belladonna example, Murphy takes 6 full pages and a bit to teach us about this important remedy.
      • 2,342 pages of Bible-style thin paper.
    • Dr. Murphy pulls from other sources (all listed at the end of each remedy write up).
    • It is written in mostly modern language but there is also a helpful glossary at the back to help explain some terms.
      • For instance: “Barber’s itch — Ringworm of the beard. Pustular folliculitis affecting facial hair.”
    • There is a short (~70 pages) clinical repertory in the back.
  • How many remedies*?
    • 1,500
  • What do I not like about it?
    • Not much!
  • Is it worth the $89?
    • Absolutely. This is without question my go-to materia medica.
  
  
  

If you have anything more than a passing interest in homeopathy, I highly recommend picking up one of these books to have handy to learn a little more, piece by piece, remedy by remedy.

A few weeks ago I received a text from someone who was just about to undergo blepharoplasty, otherwise known as eyelid surgery. This surgery is used to correct drooping upper eyelids or to reduce “bags” under the eyes. The internet tells me it’s the most popular cosmetic procedure in the world (Bido 2025), but it’s still rather uncommon (less than .1% of the population). However, I personally know 4 people who have had it done.

Blepharoplasty is a 1-3 hour surgery and recovery consists of 7-10 days of swelling and bruising, with full recovery about 2-4 weeks later.
This person who texted me had a friend who recently had the procedure done and apparently used Arnica. I suggested they also purchase some Staphysagria, Calendula and, Hypericum, just in case.
I heard from them again when they went for their follow up and texted me a photo of a product being sold in the office — called Skinuva “bruise”*.

Skinuva is a seemingly one-stop supplement for bruising, containing: Vitamin C, Zinc, Rutin, Grape Seed Extract, Bromelain and, homeopathic Arnica!
One bottle of Skinuva “bruise” costs $40 for a bottle of just 14 capsules (suggested use of twice daily for 7 days).

Skinuva “bruise” uses Arnica 30x. (30x is roughly equivalent to a 15c, in case you’re interested.) A quick look at the internet shows Arnica 30x or Arnica 15c can be purchased for $7-10 a tube and will most likely last you a lot longer than 7 days.

I’m not knocking Skinuva — I’m really excited that this product exists. I love supplements like Vitamin C and Zinc and Bromelain — they all have a place, but as a homeopath, they are outside my wheelhouse.

Why Arnica?

• Arnica is a level 4 remedy in Murphy’s bruises rubric (the other one listed is Ledum**). Additionally, it’s for “bruised pain, as if beaten.” Surgery absolutely leaves one feeling as if they’ve been beaten!
• Arnica is specifically indicated for conditions resulting from physical trauma (like surgery!)
• Arnica is very helpful in alleviating pain, especially when associated with bruising.
• Arnica reduces swelling and inflammation (which often accompany bruising).
• Arnica promotes healing. For some links to research on Arnica and surgery, see “Recovery from surgery.”
• Arnica is helpful when an area is sensitive to touch. There may be a fear of being touched because they are very protective of their injuries; they may feel delicate.

See also, “Arnica” for a deeper look into this marvelous remedy.

If you are thinking of having this popular surgery yourself, stock up on some Arnica and/or Ledum and take a deeper look into Skinuva to see if it looks like a good fit for you.

May your bruises be brief and your Arnica plentiful!

*I have no affiliation with this product, I just learned about it and am sharing what I know.
**Ledum would be another really good choice for recovery from this surgery. For instance, Ledum and Arnica are the only two remedies listed in Murphy’s rubric: Eyes - ECCHYMOSIS (bruising) - eyelids and they are both in Eyes - INJURIES, eyes - surgery, complications, after.

We were a bit late to the airport this morning — Balloon Fiesta is underway, after all. (Beautiful to see, that’s for sure!) The sign at the parking ramp said there were 47 spaces left and we weren’t the only car looking for a spot — the hunt was on!

A near empty(!) TSA line looked promising and then I saw my suitcase on the conveyer belt, poised to get kicked for further inspection.

I knew what caused the extra attention to my bag but I still had to wait while 4 (5? 6?) agents watched the other agent go through a bag that tested positive for some powder. Exciting times at the airport this morning! Finally someone asked these other agents to please take care of the bags that were beginning to pile up.

When it was my turn, I offered: “it’s a box of homeopathic remedies.” She reached in my bag, dug out the box and then gave it a shake and put it back. Then she gave me a smile and sent me on my way.

Homeopathic remedies fit beautifully in ammunition boxes. I think that must be what gets the TSA agents’ attention. My favorite tube size, 1/2 dram tubes, fit nicely in a 9mm ammo box. The 2 dram tubes fit in a .30 cal or .50 cal box, depending on the pharmacy. (I’m not at home to check the bottom of my other ammo boxes, but this is what Grok has told me is the correct ammo size.) Some of the larger vials (4 dram) fit in the shotgun shell boxes. (The shotgun boxes get a little unwieldy for my liking but at least those remedies have a home in the cupboard.)

​I believe the ammo boxes are absolutely appropriate to hold my homeopathic soldiers. These strong, sturdy and dependable little troopers help me guard against (among others…):

• Colds and flu Calming the Cold; Decongestants; Pre-Winter Bugs; Tis the Season for… Sore Throats
• Aches and pains What hurts?; Sore Tootsies; Watch your step!
• Shock and worry Homeopathy can make a heavy world a little lighter; Betrayal; Rest in Peace
• Diarrhea and constipation and upset tummy Traveler’s Diarrhea; The Doo-Doo Documents 3: Diarrhea; Nobody Needs a Nauseating Norovirus; The eagle has landed

Some people worry about the airport X-ray machines and what effect they may have on their remedies. I used to skip the x-ray machine and have my remedies hand checked. I don’t do that any longer, but it is definitely an option if you’re worried about it.

Today’s exact ammo box has traveled with me in my carry-on luggage for more than a decade (and most of the same remedies, too!) — many dozens of trips. The remedies are always fine and dandy and they always perform exactly as expected, despite the repetitive x-rays.

Traveling with my remedies means I carry peace of mind in my piece of luggage.

I set the baking trays on the two cool pots on the back burners not being used. I have done this for decades — every time I make cookies. I wasn’t making cookies. This time I was making some egg/cheese/sausage breakfast-on-the-go muffins which needed to be removed from the hot pan rather than hanging out for a while. I had an oven glove on, but that didn’t stop me from burning my forearm not once, but twice, in quick succession. I went back for more! 😫

Needless to say, it hurt like the dickens*.
​
I immediately sprayed a product which is sadly no longer for sale, Similasan’s Burn Recovery. Why it’s no longer for sale, I have no idea, but it was a marvelous product.** This spray gave a certain amount of immediate relief, but it wasn’t lasting. I then took a dose of Cantharis 30x which was sitting in the kitchen cupboard. Nothing. I sprayed the spray again, to the same effect (immediate non-lasting relief). I then took Cantharis 200c and by the time I ate dinner a couple of hours later, I barely felt it. By the time I went to bed, I no longer felt any pain. I didn’t need to repeat the spray or the pellets.

The top burn, as you can see in the photo, bubbled and raised immediately. It felt sticky. When I woke up in the morning, it was smooth and completely painless.

What to make of all this?
Well, I’m a big fan of having multiple potencies of important remedies in close proximity to where accidents can happen. My kitchen cupboard has a number of items to treat burns and bites and cuts, etc., and over the years various potencies of the same remedies have gathered together here. It works for me.

Sometimes potency matters. Having said that, if I hadn’t had a 200c handy, I would have put the 30x into some water and repeated it more frequently. I’m going to go out on a limb and say that it probably would have taken a little longer to get where it got, but I think it most likely would have done the trick eventually. But, the one single dose of 200c kicked in very quickly.

Baking season is going to be here any day — make sure you pay attention to how far your oven mitts actually extend up your arm and have some Cantharis handy!

*I suddenly thought, what the heck are “dickens”, anyway? Writing Explained says it’s a substitute word for devil. Shakespeare used in Merry Wives of Windsor, 1600.
**Fortunately for us, we can make our own topical burn relief: the ingredients are:

• Calendula 4x
• Cantharis 6x
• Echinacea 4x
• Urtica urens 4x

Unfortunately, this is not the first time I have written about my kitchen burn mishaps — slightly different scenario this time, so at least I’m not repeating the identical mistakes! See also, Kitchen Quickies: Burns.

As I opened my new book, I made a very conscious decision to put myself in the mind of someone who had zero experience with homeopathy, and it appears that was the exact right thing to do with this book.

Dr. Ethan Holbrook tells us right away (on page 3) what this book is all about:

Like all homeopathy books for “newbies,” Dr. Holbrook then includes a few short pages explaining “Like Cures Like” and “The Minimum Dose” and how to choose the correct potency.

Chapter 3 explains how to observe the pet in order to learn what to really look for. Yes, your pet is not his usual self, but as with all things homeopathy, there is more to it than just “limping, scratching, vomiting, or hiding.” There are clues which can help lead you to the best remedy for your pet’s discomfort. He then gets into the technicalities of homeopathic remedies: what to buy, where to buy them and how to administer them.

He then jumps right into the nitty gritty: Skin & Coat Issues; Digestive Troubles; Respiratory and Ear Issues; Behavioral & Emotional Health; Joint & Mobility; Minor Injuries & First Aid; Eye & Dental Health. Each chapter has a nice chart to sum up common remedies for each condition as well as the all-important “When to Call Your Vet” guidelines.

I paid particular attention to the “Joint & Mobility” section because this is where my beloved Rufus suffered most. In fact, I just learned Rufus wasn’t alone and “that over 80% of dogs over the age of eight show radiographic signs of osteoarthritis, even if they are not yet showing symptoms.” The book then guides your attention to pertinent questions about the onset and history, the location and the homeopathic-relevant “Pain Characteristics.”

Dr. Holbrook spends a few pages breaking down the major remedies and what to look for. In the joint & mobility case, Rhus tox, Bryonia and Arnica are listed first, followed by a little chart differentiating Rhus tox and Bryonia. He then continues to break down further remedies: 9 in total for this chapter.

Following the materia medica, he describes specific conditions: Arthritis (Chronic Osteoarthritis); Hip Dysplasia; Cruciate Ligament Injury; Elbow Dysplasia; Spondylosis and Tendon and Ligament Injuries.
The end of each chapter describes how to build a support plan or maintenance routine. In the Joint & Mobility section, there are common sense suggestions, like providing orthopedic bedding and exercise as well as a list of supplements to consider, followed by how best to use the homeopathic remedies.

Chapter 11 returns to more guidance on the prescribing process and how to monitor the remedy response as well as when to switch and when to escalate.

Next is a walk-through of an example case with a page dedicated to keeping simple records — a piece of the puzzle we so frequently forget to do (but is so very important!)

Case studies are then followed by a chapter on Safety, Ethics & Limits, including good guidelines of what homeopathy can do and what homeopathy is not able to do; what constitutes an emergency and how to work with your veterinarian.
​
Honestly, this is a very thorough book and I would absolutely suggest this to any pet owner interested in helping their pets naturally. I only scratched the surface of what is included in these 200+ easy to read and follow pages.

*I have no affiliation with this book or the author — I stumbled upon it and it impressed me enough that I thought I needed to bring it to your attention!

Twice this week I have watched Calendula tea do some lovely things.
The first person had a literal scratch on their throat which was very painful.
The second person had a very sore throat due to days of coughing.
Both of these people drank some Calendula tea and both of them were very pleased they did.

As I mentioned in A Calendula Quickie… for inner bits… (and, bites!), I have used Calendula when I have had a sore in my mouth but I had never tried it for a sore throat.

Dr. Robin Murphy mentions it in his complaints following throat surgery rubrics and when there is a “lacerating” sensation to the throat. Knerr shows it in a few throat rubrics beyond injuries: swallowing painful, and, bitter mucus (a one remedy rubric); Luke Norland’s Synoptic Guide shows Calendula has an affinity to the mouth and throat (along with 366 other remedies). Schroyens mentions it as one of 117 remedies for a “tickling” cough, but it also shows up in 52 other throat rubrics.


I now get it. It now makes sense to me why I hadn’t considered it until just the other day for a sore throat — one person had an actual injury to their throat; a couple days later, another person had sort of an injury to their throat — it was “injured” and sore from coughing. Those two cases back-to-back enabled me to make this a-ha connection.
Here are a few links of how to use Calendula tea: a nice list*; Get Well Soon book* mentions using it in tincture form mixed into a gargle concoction for sore throats; this place offers a recipe for an herbal tea recipe* and this tea company* has a nice write up on the herb itself; and, this site* tells you how to make your own Calendula tea from the marigolds in your garden.

So, ahem — (clearing my throat a little bit to cover my slight embarrassment for not making this connection earlier), if a sore throat comes your way, try either a little herbal calendula tea or some homeopathic Calendula, either in it’s pellet form directly, or a few pellets or as a tincture dropped into some water or into your own tea of choice.

*I have no affiliation with this or any other company — I’m just sharing interesting information as I find it.

Fall must be approaching. It doesn’t feel like it here in the desert southwest; we are still seemingly in the throes of straight summer with temperatures remaining 10+ degrees above average. In fact, it almost feels like we have hit the breaks on moving toward fall and reversed into actual summer. You see, we had a relatively humid summer. (See "12 Angry Homeopathic Remedies” if you care to know a bit more about our summer this year.) And, today, September 10th, 2026 (and 11th, I didn’t quite get everything finished yesterday), we finally have our normal sky — cloudless and bright blue. Boy, have I missed seeing that!

​A New Mexico 9% humidity sky. 😍

Even though we have been humid (for New Mexico), we have had no rain worth mentioning. Our trees are dying 😫. Rivers are just beds of stones. The monsoons never developed this year.

Despite this lingering heat, autumnal bugs are beginning their march into town. The internet tells me October is the month where things really get going. However, this morning I saw in my email that Stanford University-run WastewaterSCAN program indicates that SARS-CoV-2 is currently “high” nationwide, with a significant upward trend in the last 3 weeks. I checked the WastewaterSCAN Dashboard and New Mexico doesn’t appear. However, a Today show article claims it is increasing nationwide.

Cold, Flu, Covid, the Crud, the Suds** — whatever seasonal ailment is getting you, homeopathy is a good place to start. It’s important to remember that homeopathy doesn’t care the name of what ails you — homeopathy is (for the most part) only interested in your symptoms.

With that, let’s look at a few remedies to have handy. As Benjamin Franklin taught us, an ounce of prevention is definitely worth a pound of cure! All of these homeopathic remedies work really well when taken at the first sign of any symptoms. Repeat every few hours, or, follow the manufacturer’s direction.

• Aconite + Bryonia
  • This is my first stop. In fact, I saw this Banerji combination work it’s magic just today. This person was feeling really lousy: run down, cold-like symptoms — this person was fading fast, actually. One dose and about 20 minutes later, feeling much better. Fixed? Not quite, but on the way.
• Boiron’s Cold Calm* (see also, Calming the Cold)
  • If you get on this one with the first few sniffles, nastiness may be avoided!
• Narayani Flu Pack (see also, Pre-Winter Bugs)
• Ferrum phos 6x is a beautiful little thing. Don’t underestimate the power of a little cell salt to turn the bugs around as soon as they make themselves known. (see also, On the 4th day of cell salts… Ferr phos)
• Oscillococcinum*. A lot of people swear by this one to keep well. It can be used if the bugs have taken hold, or, for prevention if you believe you have simply been exposed. (See also, Ho Ho Ho (not, Ooooooh no!)

​So far this month, I’m seeing a bunch of throat stuff and huge fatigue, in addition to milder cold-like symptoms and one person with some stomach issues thrown in for good measure. For what it’s worth, Gelsemium has been helpful for a couple of people I have encountered. Why Gelsemium?
​
Gelsemium symptoms (keynotes from Morrison are bolded):

• may creep up on you rather than appearing out of the blue
• a lot of weakness and fatigue; heavy limbs; may be some trembling; may feel too weak to move
  • Oddly, despite the overall weakness, symptoms may improve a little bit with continued movement or exertion.
    • Perhaps relatedly… Gelsemium is also in a one remedy rubric for: Heart - ANXIETY, heart region , in - fears, that unless constantly moving heart will cease to beat, fear of death: (1) GELS.
• a strong desire to lie down and sleep
  • heavy eyelids; can’t keep them open
• sore throat; difficulty swallowing
  • pain may extend to the ears
• stuffy nose with watery discharge; especially on the left side
• a dull and heavy headache; may start in the back of the head and move up to the forehead
  • keynotes of a Gelsemium headache:
    • feels like there is a band around the head
    • headaches improve when passing a fairly large quantity of urine
• vertigo with vision issues; sensation as if falling
• if there is a fever, there may be a lack of thirst
  • feels hot but no desire to drink water
  • sticky perspiration over the whole body
  • chills run up and down the spine; there may be shivering
• concentration is difficult; dullness; and, maybe even confusion

When the stomach plays a larger role, consider Arsenicum album.
A quick comparison between Gelsemium and Arsenicum for cold/flu symptoms:

These early days of flu/cold-like symptoms mark the beginning of what could be a long season of yuckiness. Homeopathy may just be able to set things right before they are able to take hold.

Tallying up the Pain Remedies

An esoteric look at some remedies and how they relate to various types of pain.

OHM is an excellent homeopathic pharmacy located in Texas. They make a nice little kit aimed at pain management. Unfortunately, OHM doesn’t sell to the general public; but, that doesn’t stop you from creating your own little kit based on their suggested remedies.
​
Let’s see why these 11 remedies are included in this select little kit and why you may want to consider having some handy.
