In greek mythology, Iris was the goddess of the rainbow, connecting heaven and earth (Vertical axis). She is a messenger between gods and man.
Acccording to flower essences the remedy is for: Lacking inspiration or creativity; feeling weighed down by the ordinariness of the world; dullness. It is the soul's mission to build a rainbow bridge between spirit and matter. The pure light of the spirit needs to be ensouled, or colored with feeling. This is the path of the artist. But the remedy is also for individuals who need to bring passionate creativity to their life work. Many modern individuals lack soul vitality; a gray pallor stifles them, they suffocate in the mundane and mechanical. Iris helps the inner life of the human soul harmonize with the Soul of Nature, and in this way to become alive, vibrant, and truly "iridescent."
Iris affects the whole alimentary canal and has burning and acrid SOUR secretions: The mouth is greasy, feels burnt or scalded: while profuse ropy saliva may hang down from lips to floor, reminding one of Kali-bi.It has burning distress in the stomach: the vomit is extremely sour and burns stomach. Burning distress not only in stomach, mouth, salivary glands and oesophagus but also in the pancreas. In diarrhoea, the stools are watery, and burn the anus, which feels on fire. It affects the liver, increasing, or tending towards deficiency of bile, with jaundice. From regurgitation of bile, bilious attacks occur, with terrible headaches and vomiting of bile.
