What is Black Cohosh Flower Essence commonly chosen for?

Black Cohosh is an essence for situations in which a person is entangled in an abusive, threatening, addictive or destructive relationship or way of life. The traditional emphasis is on gaining the courage and clarity to confront the pattern rather than remaining magnetically drawn back into it.

What is the positive quality associated with Black Cohosh?

No. The traditional pattern can involve family dynamics, social environments, addictive lifestyles or other situations where destructive intensity keeps repeating. The key is entanglement with a threatening or toxic pattern, not the type of relationship.
