Emotional/Spiritual Effects:
Enjoy the lightening of the load that occours with this plant, both physically and mentally. One can feel that heaviness caused by overthinking, fear, confusion and more, is drawn down into the knowing of the rest of the body. Rhubarb is, elementally speaking, a very earthy plant, and thus it may be beneficial for those who are prone to be floaty or flighty due the aforementioned overthinking, fear, confusion and more. On a deeper level it may be apt for those who find the physical experience or even the witnessing of the physical experience of human living confronting and/or depressing. Rhubarb encourages a certain coalescing of awareness, leading us stop running from the human experience and instead devise how we can create an environment that is more nourishing and harmonious for all.
In this way it encourages pragmatic thinking and a disciplined approach, whilst also enabling a flexibility necessary for overcoming setbacks that we may encounter along the way of creating this more nourishing and harmonious environment.
