Roots to Fruits: The magic of foraging
🔗 SOURCE: WickedLeeks
At this time of year I always go ‘brambling’, but it wasn’t until I looked into the history and science of foraging that I realised just how powerful picking blackberries can be.
The best place I know for brambles is near a little town in East Lothian called Haddington. I was vaguely aware that in the 16th Century the area was part of a witchcraft ‘outbreak’.
Innocent women were persecuted for speaking in demonic tongues and casting spells on their neighbours. What I was not aware of was that one of their crimes was ‘hedgerow witchcraft’ or the foraging for medicines from wild plants for everything from childbirth to depression.
Today a lot of people still forage in hedgerows and thankfully none of us are burned at the stake. But there is still a sense of the subversive. Foraging for food is one of the few ways we can sever reliance on the established food and medical system. It is seen as a little bit wild, a little bit dangerous; there is even still a connection to witchcraft.
In her wonderful book A Spell in the Wild, Alice Tarbuck, who describes herself as a modern day ‘witch’, guides the reader through some of the ways we can reconnect to our pagan roots. Part of her practice is to gather wild plants for their medicinal properties, as well as for the feelings of empowerment and freedom it gives her identifying and gathering her own food and medicine.
It is well known that wild foods like blackberries and rosehips are packed with vitamin C. But is there something even more powerful going on?
Wendy Russell, a professor of molecular nutrition at The Rowett Institute in Aberdeen, and certainly not a witch, thinks so. She explains that, as well as the vitamins and minerals identified by science, there are potentially millions of phytochemicals in wild plants we do not yet know about.
These micronutrients could hold the key to improving our health and even treat non-communicable conditions like diabetes. For example, blackberries are packed full of anthocyanins, that give the fruit its purple colour and could protect against cancer.
A study carried out at The Rowett Institute found the 20 most-foraged plants in Scotland all contain high quantities of phytochemicals. Comparisons between wild cabbage and domesticated cabbage found the wild cabbage had far more phytochemicals. Prof Russell wants to bring some of these micronutrients in wild plants back into our diets through growing wild plants on marginal land, and reintroducing some of the genetics of wild plants back into our domesticated breeds.
There are also the mental health benefits in foraging. Recent studies have found that being outside in nature and gathering plants can improve your state of mind. One study at the University of Oregon found fractal shapes in nature like snowflakes and flowers can be soothing. Why not the sepals of a rosehip or the seeds on a blackberry? Another study from Japan found that forest bathing, the process of taking a mindful, multi-sensory walk in the woods, i.e. something very similar to foraging, can reduce stress.
As I set out to forage over this autumn equinox, I will be noticing the change in temperature, the leaves turning and the smell of the earth. I will be using all my senses to spot the red haws in the hedgerow, hear the robins singing and taste the sweetest blackberries. Best of all I will share my bounty with my friends when I get home. For me that feels like magic.

WHAT IS ORGONE ENERGY AND ITS RELATION TO OTHER FORMS OF ENERGY
A comparative study between Reich’s orgone energy and other known energies of the past has been discussed in the first part of the talk. Generally, those energies were called by different names even though they had the same basic characteristics. One of the most accepted and widespread terms that might encompass all of these is aether. Its functions were studied in all epochs of our recent civilization both inside and outside public institutions. In 1905, Einstein’s Annus Mirabilis, the (luminiferous) aether was removed from mainstream science and no longer reintroduced. Notwithstanding that, the aether continued to be thoroughly studied by many independent researchers and scientists outside of academic circles. From the present investigation it emerged that orgone energy presents many similarities with most of the ancient and more recent forms of energy, and it can be identified with them. Besides, the (luminiferous) aether of the Victorian age might be considered directly related to Reich’s orgone energy in that they have in common very basic physical qualities.
The second part of the talk is focused on the relationship between orgone energy (or aether), a pre-atomic energy (in Reich’s terms) and its secondary by-products, nowadays considered the primary pillars of traditional physics. Presently, the laws of physics are based on the behaviour of inanimate objects. The basic processes of living matter (such as pulsation, lumination, condensation into matter, irritability, and heat formation) and their animation are excluded from the fundamental assumptions. This led over time to a sterile and limited conception of physical phenomena. Striking evidence of this limited understanding is illustrated by the Brownian Movement misnomer whereby the living motion of Clarkia Pulchella pollen (looking much like bions) has been reduced to and studied as merely a movement of inert, dead particles (Jones, 2013; Maglione, 2014). The orgone energy continuum is of non-electrical nature and is substantially different from electromagnetic energy. It is the medium through which electromagnetic waves propagate in space, a conception already in use before Einstein’s Annus Mirabilis (1905), and even by the early Einstein (1894-5 first paper). Electromagnetic waves are simply a disturbance of the orgone continuum that propagate through it with a pulsating movement. Friction (static) electricity is a manifestation of orgone energy in an excited or Oranur state, while heat is a particular manifestation of the movement of orgone energy particles due to the conversion of part of their kinetic energy into heat when hitting metallic layers or materials. This latter conception promptly invalidates the second law of thermodynamics (and entropy). Matter is formed by the superimposition of two or more excited orgone energy particles that converge and start rotating at luminal velocity.
The talk’s conclusion stresses the point that orgone energy, as well as its secondary manifestations or by-products, were already known throughout the ages. Reich’s profound research ability led him to introduce for the first time ever, in this historical context, rules and laws within a modern language to understand and manage all the fundamental and secondary qualities of this energy, including the living properties, which have been so neglected by many, even in the more distant past.

"I can understand the impatience of my friends who would like to learn as much as possible as soon as possible. However, the interest of the total work requires the interpolation of several years between the time a finding is made and its publication. This is an automatic safeguard against theoretical blunders. From the very beginning of orgone research it has proven valuable not to publish a new finding until it has developed into an essential new insight. The continued development to a new insight is a confirmation of the previous finding"
