Die Bildung von Raum in der Baumwelt und im Menschen (Reprint)

Abstract:

The purpose of this reprint is to make an important work more accessible. The study describes the interrelationships between the formation of the shape of trees related to the beech and to the rose family due to earthly and cosmic formative forces and the formation of space in the organs of the human body. This led to an insight into European (or common) mistletoe (Viscum album) with its various host trees and the mistletoe medicinal product of abnoba-VISCUM® with regard to the organs of the human organism in the context of cancer. Among the beech-related trees, the oak, which forms its own space, is earthly, while the birch, which is open to the surrounding space, is cosmic. In humans, the metabolic-limb system, including the sexual organs, is dominated by earthly, intrinsic spatial forces, whereas the nerve-sense system, including the organs of speech, is dominated by cosmic ambient forces. Among the more cosmically emphasized stone fruit trees of the rose family, the bird (or Mayday) cherry tree can be assigned to the more cosmically feminine organs of speech and the almond tree to the more earthly emphasized masculine organs of speech. Among the more earthly pome fruit trees within the rose family, the common hawthorn corresponds in humans to the male sexual organization, which is more open to the surrounding cosmic forces, and the apple, pear or quince to the more intrinsic female sexual organization. In the interaction of surrounding cosmic and intrinsic earthly spatial forces in the formation of trees, the former predominate in the maple, the latter in the lime tree. In humans, formative forces act in the lungs, which shape the maple in the outside world. The same applies to the heart and the lime tree. The ash tree combines the effects of both formative forces: As a swamp ash on moist soils it opens itself more to the surrounding cosmic forces and as a limestone ash on dry calcareous ground it is more open to the forces that form the earthly inner space. Such a variable interplay of the different formative forces can be observed in human blood. Thus nature can be found in man and man in nature.
