I know many people are not very familiar with the expression „archetype“, but to be honest I have to admit I do not know any other or better word, that expresses this special idea so exactly. So perhaps I start this new chapter with a short repetition of what an archetype is.
An Archetype is an idea, a concept, something immaterial, but clear and evident without further explanation to everybody no matter where she or he lives in this big world, no matter what skin colour, religion, gender etc.. Let me give you an example, his one:
The hero
A hero is by definition someone who dares to do things others are afraid of. No robot. A hero has to be capable of having feelings, even fear. Robots do not feel anything. The essence of a hero is, that he is aware of the danger he is going to face – and does it anyway.
The second characteristic of a hero is the fact, that it is not sure at all whether he will win the fight or not. It is quite possible that he may lose or even die. A hero is not invincible. Only Gods are invincible, the hero however is human.

The Lime tree has been a holy tree since ancient times. For the Germans of the stoneage this tree was dedicated to Freya, Goddess of love and happiness. In many towns and villages throughout Europe Lime trees form the center. It marks the place where the people gather and party as well.
This gives us the key to the effects of Lime essence. Lime brings us the feeling of being at home, she makes us feel safe and secure and well-balanced inside. Home plays a very important if not to say main role in the life of humans and animals as well. Cats are known as connected to places, dogs love their hamper where they return to and even chicken enter their stall without much ado when the night comes. When you find similar attitudes and behaviour in the humans as well as in the animal kingdom, we can consider them to be archetypal. It should not be too difficult to find similarities in the plant kingdom.
