PINK OLEANDER FLOWER ESSENCE

September 29, 2025

Do you often experience...

Softness – sometimes being overly soft
Flexibility – sometimes being overly flexible
Tendency to keep quiet vs. speak up boldly
Allowing someone to take advantage of you
Letting people push your boundaries
Disaster, distraction, confusion
Sense of separation or isolation
Overwhelm, feeling overly sensitive

If these resonate with you, you're likely drawn to the Pink Oleander Flower.

WHAT IT REVEALS

If you’re drawn to the Pink Oleander flower, you may be a flexible person, albeit too flexible. You might be a softie at times, allowing yourself to be taken advantage of. You may allow strangers or loved ones to push your boundaries, while having a hard time saying ‘no’. Rather than boldly stating what you want or don’t want, you might have a tendency to just keep quiet.

Allowing yourself to get taken advantage of can cause confusion and take you off your true path. Letting people walk all over you is a distraction that can ultimately lead to disaster. Being unable to draw the line or speak aloud a simple ‘no’ can lead to a domino effect of future collapse.

Alternatively, lately, you may be feeling too soft or weak, in a way such that every little thing wrangles your overly-sensitive nervous system. You may become easily overwhelmed, even in previously manageable or even desirable situations.

WHAT IT CATALYZES

The Pink Oleander flower strengthens our sense of resolve, toughness and willpower. It firms up our boundaries and increases our desire for clarity, structure and order. We learn how to embody and express tough love (for ourselves and others). We put on our big girl panties / big boy undies, take charge of our situations and develop strength & capacity for any situation that may arise.

We dive into a deeper understanding of how boundaries create order, maintain clarity of roles, clarity of intention and forward movement. We learn how to be tough and loving at the same time. We assimilate methods for killing someone with kindness or loving someone more fiercely out of protection. We learn how to be clearer and to better protect ourselves and others. We can even use harsh words as a mechanism to protect someone or clarify a situation.

Pink Oleander toughens us. Rather than being overly sensitive like a mimosa flower that shudders with the softest of touch, we learn to do like the Australians say ... “Eat a teaspoon of cement and harden up!”

Pink Oleander roots our systems into the strength of the Earth. We can access and strengthen our energetic muscles:

We feel more determined.
We toughen up.
We become stronger & more capable to take on increasingly challenging situations.
We can push ourselves to the edge of our capacity – and experience invigoration rather than debilitation.
We gain a sense of satisfaction instead of letting ourselves crumble or hide in a corner.

We find new reserves of power, and a way to transform challenges into opportunities for expansive growth.

FUN FACTS

The Pink Oleander is known for its plentiful flowers and tough disposition. It’s often used for hedges, creating ‘walls’ of greenery and flowers surrounding properties or gardens. It grows so thick that you can’t see through it, nor climb through it.

Growing 4-8 feet tall depending on the variety, it is a great hedge for keeping out deer and rabbits (if you have a garden that’s getting munched on). Additionally, Oleander’s disease resistance is exceptional. A tough, hardy plant, it does not get sick and it is also very hard to kill. If you ever have an Oleander hedge that you want to remove, you have to dig out all the roots or it will keep growing back!

Oleander is the city flower of Hiroshima; it was the first flower that sprouted and grew after the nuclear bomb, and is a widely known symbol of hope & resilience.

Oleander is highly toxic to humans and animals if ingested. Its milky sap can cause skin irritation so gloves must be worn when handling, and even pruned branches cannot be burned as the smoke is toxic!

Reminder: similar to the homeopathic remedy, the flower essence of Oleander has no chemical constituents of the plant, so it is consumable. The homeopathic remedy of Oleander is used as a powerful antiviral remedy.
