As representative of the mineral kingdom, it is the quartz crystal and also orthoclase (potassium feldspar); from the plant kingdom: yarrow (*Achillea millefolium*), chamomile (*Matricaria recutita*), stinging nettle (*Urtica dioica*), oak bark (*Quercus robur*), dandelion (*Taraxacum officinalis*), and valerian (*Valeriana officinalis*); from the animal kingdom, cow dung as well as individual organs come into consideration — principally from the cow, in one case from noble game. All of these source materials are end-products of evolution, with properties that cannot be derived from the individual elements and their properties that are involved in the composition of the source materials. As has been indicated several times, rock crystal (SiO₂) fulfils a kind of sense function in the household of nature toward the forces that ray in as formative forces from the farthest reaches of the cosmos and year after year, in repeated rhythms, help plants to their form — the form they have taken on evolutively. Can this sense function of quartz, which becomes effective beneath the earth in the root zone, be so reversed in polarity that above ground it captures planetary influences in a metabolically active way within the leaf growth?
