The Essence of a "Sulphur" Constitutional Type
by Gina
Tyler DHOM
The mental, emotional, and physical make-up of a "sulphur"
is discussed in this article (sulphur: sol = sun, ferre = to carry). When
a trained classical homeopath helps a person with an illness, they normally
look for signs of the patients "constitutional remedy". What is a constitutional
remedy?
From the time of conception you take into consideration
the inherited traits from your parents and ancestors. Not only physical
traits, but disease imprints, and mental, spiritual, and emotional traits.
Trauma is inherited not only during conception but via the fetus forming.
So, it is the totality of all symptoms of the patient; this makes one's
constitution. To match this constitutional type with a homeopathic remedy
that is similar in "personality" is a difficult task. Sometimes it may
be obvious, but not always. (There are thousands of homeopathic remedies
that have specific personalities.) The patients obvious traits are sometimes
tainted by miasmatic layers of
a chronic disease. These need to be homeopathicaly removed (like peeling
an onion layer by layer). Out of the thousands to choose from, sulphur
is the most extreme in intellectual abilities. Sulphur patients have unusualy
gifted mental abilities from the day they are born. Some sulphurs are:
Albert Einstein, Carl Jung, Samuel Hahnemann, Abraham Lincoln, and Socrates.
Among our great leaders, inventors, scientists, gurus,
and mathematicians, there have been many sulphurs. The scholar, the creative
genius, the eccentric, the impulsive artist; all have minds that flow profusely
into metaphysics, theories, and equations. All are famous for answering
in long-winded sentences.
A great example is the book called "The Organon"
written by S. Hahnemann. Hahnemann calls sulphur "the king of antipsorics".
Sulphur types are philosophers, deep in thought and oblivious to the simple
physical life they live. As Einstein was, his wife had to do everything
for him. He had to be fed, dressed, etc.; his head being "in the clouds".
Sulphurs live in a world of imagination. They are blind to all the material
things of today.
Personally, I am focused on the sulphur constitutional
type due to the fact that when I think back in my own life, my mentors,
great teachers, and inspirational people have all been sulphurs. It is
always those that stood out, making a dent in society. I have great respect
for the eccentric sulphurs because of their many contributions to my life.
Up until now, I have only met male sulphurs. It is well known that there
are very few female sulphurs in existence. Sulphurs need a lot of emotional,
mental, and physical room due to restless and nervous energy (like the
flammable element sulphur.)
The greatest egos come from the sulphur type, but
this is the motivating force that keeps him mobile, stimulated, focused,
and driven. Such great leaders are self motivated and do not look to follow
another but set the pace for others to follow. This intense ego, if imbalanced,
is destructive, obsessive, irritable, insecure, negative, and a hypocondriac.
To criticize an unbalanced sulphur is volatile. You cannot argue with a
sulphur type due to the strong will and obstinate personality combined
within a dictionary of wuick witted vocabulary words. So here, you have
the two basic extremes of polarity.
Emotional and mental states of imbalance cause organic
derangements in the physical realm. Sulphur is impatient with those around
him. Always on the move, full of brilliant ideas, alchemists call sulphur
"the heat and force of everything." In homeopathy, sulphur is used to push
out symptoms ("bring to maturity"). For example: clearing up skin imbalances
due to suppressive topical lotions, or suppressive emotional and mental
imbalance; a phenomenon that happens when the vibration of the homeopathic
sulphur remedy neutralizes the vibration of the disease.
All of one's traits become "real" under stress of
an emotion. When a
sulphur is suppressed, mentally and emotionally the unconscious side
of them makes an appearance. The alter ego sets in; its spirits, its demons
(Lucifer), and its flaws all become visible. This is when it is easy to
detect a sulphur. The worst thing to do to a sulphur is to cause sufficating
suppression of any type. To suppress their imagination, creativity, ego,
and spirit will degenerate a sulphur's fire. The physical body becomes
full of discomforts and starts to adapt to its miserable situation, becoming
ill with disease, irritable and difficult to live with.
1. Sulphur is an extremely hot blooded person. Warm hands
and feet; always kicks off blankets.
2. Nervous, lean, eccentric looking.
3. You can spot a sulphur in a crowd due to his unruly long hair,
and
outgoing selection of clothing (sometimes wearing the same clothes
week after week.)
4. Sits in a chair with his entire body involved.
5. Paces the floor, cannot stand still in one spot.
6. Cannot wear wool clothing, gets super itchy.
7. Health complaints are always relapsing.
8. Noon and midnight are the worst aggravations for sulphurs.
9. It has to be "his idea", not someone elses.
10. Reads a lot of books, retaining everything.
11. Can teach a class better than the instructor.
12. A sulphur "scholar" does not worry about his physical appearance.
13. Messy house does not matter to sulphur.
He is indifferent.
14. Offensive body odors.
15. Intolerance of artificial heaters indoors. They make him "stuffy".
16. Chronic skin eruptions (eczema, dry itchy psoriasis, boils, and
acne.)
17. Lots of anxiety. Dislike of criticism, suppression, and being scorned.
18. Embarassment is extremely humiliating.
19. Much struggling for ego and honor.
20. Sulphur "idealists" are usually dogamatic and cannot be swayed.
21. Absent minded "professor" type, neglecting practical aspects of
their lives.
22. Sulphurs make excellent teachers.
23. Sulphurs want to do things whenever they want to, not when told
to.
24. Known for drinking large amounts of alcohol.
25. Charming to the opposite sex. Many sulphurs are womanizers.
26. Having many partners. Openly flirting with women, but hopelessly
dependent on their wives, emotionally and practically.
27. Sulphurs are great in promoting themselves.
28. Lots of self confidence, gifted and enterprising.
29. Preferring self employment. Likes his independence and freedom.
30. Has knowledge of a broad range of subjects, highly intellectual.
31. Most have no formal education and are self taught (born an intellectual
genius.)
32. Sulphurs like an audience.
33. Sulphurs do not care about being socially acceptable.
34. Relates to all walks of life, young and old.
35. Individualist, independent.
36. Childish persona.
37. Lots of self confidence, boasting about his achievements.
38. When it comes to a goal or passion, sulphur dives into it 1000%,
whether it is a negative obsession or work related project.
39. Protective of his family, the wife is "queen" in his eyes.
40. Sulphur feels like a child of the universe.
41. Often unbearable to live with, cynical and feeling sorry for themselves
causing insecurities.
42. Becoming aloof, guarded, and with a self doubt.
43. Worries about the future.
44. Revels in argument or anecdote.
Note: The "clinical" symptoms of sulphur have not been discussed such as
skin afflictions, lymphatic, cardiovascular and urinary systems. For that,
most homeopathic Materia Medica's have lists of information. This article
pertains more to the "essence" of sulphur.

Excerpt from The
principles and Art of Cure by Homœopathy by HERBERT
A. ROBERTS, M.D
PSORA
This word psora, which Hahnemann used to denote the third great miasm,
is defined by the modern medical dictionary as follows:
I. Scabies. 2. Psoriasis. 3. Hahnemann's term
for the "itch dyscrasia," defined as the parent of all chronic disease-skin
diseases, neoplasms, insanity, etc.; it was similar to, though of more
extended application than, the "herpeti diathesis" of French writers. And
the definition adds: p. leprosy, psoriasis.
Funk and Wagnall's Dictionary gives: Psora.
I. Pathol. The itch, or some such similar skin disease. 2. The itch mite.
The derivation is Latin and Greek, but it is rather Hebraic in origin,
coming through the Greek and Latin, the original word being tsorat.
Interpretation of this Hebrew word tsorat conveys
clearly the thought Hahnemann had in mind. Tsorat: A groove, a fault; a
pollution; a stigma; often applied to leprous manifestations and to the
great plagues. It is the meaning of the original Hebrew word that we must
regard as the basis for the term covering this constitutional defect.
In the light of modern comprehension of these
conditions, classified by Hahnemann as psora, we may not doubt but that
the original meaning of the Hebrew word had greater significance than we
have understood. A groove, a fault... With our growing knowledge of the
so-called deficiency disease we are coming to realize that the lack of
certain from foods, is the great common denominator of almost all the so-called
psoric conditions, plus a lack of balance in the equilibrium of health
that manifests through a hypersensitivity of impressions-functional disturbances
and the patient's recognizance of disturbance that varies from consciousness
to neuroses.
The vast majority of the diseases of the earth
came under this great classification, which has been called the mother
of all diseases; and Hahnemann found that there was a traceable relationship
between these chronic manifestations and the many various plagues which
had troubled the peoples of the earth since the most ancient times, manifesting
themselves in various ways, such as the ancient plagues of Egypt, leprosy
(at one time France alone had over two thousand homes for lepers), and
the itch poison which swept Europe at a later date. In many instances Hahnemann
found there was a close connection between such grave infectious diseases
and the patients with stubborn recurring symptoms.
Hahnemann became convinced that these recurring
symptoms owed their existence to this chronic miasm
which he called psora, and that of itself this condition could never be
cured. While the acute manifestations may subside and be quiescent for
a considerable period, the chronic state that causes the acute eruption
of symptoms never dies until it is met with the similar remedy.
Hahnemann found that this form of disease was
first made manifest on the skin, as a skin infection or eruption; this
was its natural place, but here the natural manifestation is susceptible
of suppression by many forms of treatment, such as lotions, ointments,
mineral baths, surgical operations with the removal of organs, and anything
that tends to obliterate the manifestation on the surface by seemingly
curing the external symptoms. It is on the surface that it naturally thrives
and here it will do the least harm. By suppression this constitutional
state becomes more manifest in a train of distressing symptoms, so long
as the skin manifestation is quiescent, and may affect any part of the
body.
Hahnemann found, too, that many chronic ailments
which are enumerated in pathological works under distinct names, originate,
with few exceptions, in this widely ramified psora. All skin manifestations
and conditions; almost all adventitious formations such as swelling of
the glands, sarcomatous and carcinomatous tumours; deformed bony structures;
hæmorrhagic tendencies; all suppurations; functional disturbances;
nutritional disturbances; all of the acute disease manifestations; all
these conditions Hahnemann traced to this source and classified under the
head of psora.
It is characteristic of the skin in these conditions
that there is considerable itching, for psoric conditions always itch.
In fact, not only was psora considered the mother of all diseases, but
it might well have been considered as the source of almost all subjective
symptoms, especially those described by the patient "sensation as if."
In classifying those constitutional diseases which have not run a course
through so many centuries, that is, the venereal classifications, it has
been noted that their action has been swifter, and while at times more
destructive, the subjective symptoms have been present in the degree in
which psora has been present in the system.
Although fundamental miasms have their period
of remission, latent states lasting perhaps for years without showing any
manifestations, some sudden crisis in the history of the individual may
rouse them to sudden eruption and the patient will become severely disturbed
in health. These crises may be in the form of accidents, exposure, some
slight infection, indiscretions of diet or hygiene, some apparently simple
thing out of all proportion to the serious consequences. In this class
come the pneumonias following accidents and exposures; infections from
slight wounds; almost all of those grave states roused by a seemingly slight
cause.
Here the homœopathic physician, by taking into
consideration the psoric background, will bring into play the remedies
that are related in their symptomatology to these psoric states, and he
will be able to do most effective work. more

Homeopathic
Alternative to vaccines Nosodes are homeopathic preparations
made from cultures of microbes and viruses.. The nosode is prepared by
serial dilution. Nosodes are administered in different two basic ways.
In the case of nosodes from bacteria and viruses, the preparation carries
the molecular imprint of the proteins and other constituents of the pathological
agent. The working of the nosode is based on the fact that the immune system
is sensitized to this molecular imprint without being exposed to the virulence
of the living agent. The use of nosodes as a replacement for vaccination
is based on this mechanism.
A nosode from a pathological agent, such as the measles, whooping cough
(pertussis), etc., carries the molecular imprint of the agent and therefore
sensitizes the immune system in such a way as to prepare the body for the
defense against that same pathological agent. This is important in the
case of children's diseases, where a primary infection is necessary to
immunize the child, often for life, at a moment when the baby is highly
vulnerable.
Whether a baby will be immunized with a vaccine or not, the administration
of a nosode for each of the common children's diseases is an ideal way
to start building immunity. Because of the fact that the agent is present
in the nosode as an imprint and not as a virulent entity, it is a safe
and gentle way to sensitize the immune system. It will protect against
shock and serious consequences in the case of infection or vaccination.

What
Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated! Why
are a growing number of parents and health care professionals around the
world questioning vaccination? The controversy stems from the thousands
of deaths and permanent disabilities attributed to vaccination annually,
as well as the many published medical studies, government statistics, congressional
testimonies, and other credible sources that directly contradict commonly
held assumptions about vaccine safety and effectiveness.

In fall 1997, two influential professional magazines featured articles
asking the question: Has the decrease of infectious diseases in childhood
through the mass use of vaccines been replaced with an increase in chronic
diseases such as diabetes and asthma? The Economist, a prestigious international
magazine read by world leaders in government, business and public policy,
and Science News, a magazine read by both health care professionals and
the general public, explored the reported links between vaccines and chronic
diseases in their November 22, 1997 issues. Learn

suit One hundred years ago, children received 1 vaccine (the smallpox
vaccine). Forty years ago, children received 5 vaccines routinely (diphtheria,
pertussis, tetanus, polio, and smallpox vaccines) and as many as 8 shots
by 2 years of age. Children now receive 52 vaccines, in the form of 15
shots, by the time they are 6 months of age if they receive all the recommend
shots, including the Prevnar pediatric pneumonia shot.
Congressman is calling for criminal penalties for any government
agency that knew about the dangers of thimerosal in vaccines and did nothing
to protect American children.
Congressman Dan Burton (R-Indiana)
during Congressional Hearing: "You mean to tell me that since 1929, we've
been using Thimerosal, and the only test that you know of is from
1929, and every one of those people had mennigitis, and they all died?"
For nearly an hour, Burton repeatedly asked FDA and CDC officials what
they knew and when they knew it. (Thimerosal contains a related mercury
compound called ethyl mercury. Mercury is a toxic metal that can cause
immune, sensory, neurological, motor, and behavioral dysfunctions.)
