Frequently Asked Questions

​​​

What is a Master Plant Essence?

A vibrational essence is not a tincture, drug, or microdose. It contains no psychoactive compounds. Instead, it carries the energetic signature — the consciousness — of the Master Plant held within the crystalline structure of water, stabilised with alcohol. Think of it as a tuning fork for the Soul: subtle, intelligent, and working through resonance rather than chemistry.

 

How do Essences work?

Essences speak to the subtle field — emotional, energetic, spiritual. They adapt to the individual, meeting you where you are and offering alignment rather than force. They signal new patterns into the energy body, clearing old imprints and awakening deeper remembrance of wholeness. 

 

How do I take an Essence?

3 to 9 drops under the tongue is the standard dose, once to three times per day. Hold momentarily with mindfulness in the mouth to allow absorption and connection to the Plant Spirit. You may also add drops to water, tea, or place directly on pulse points, chakra points, or in a bath. Trust your intuitive body.

 

How much do I take?

General guideline: 3-9 drops, 1-3x daily.
Some prefer microdosing style - 1 drop many times through the day, or several drops added to a water bottle, sipped through the day. 
Others take one intentional dose when needed.
There’s no one right way — listen to intuition.

 

How often should I take an Essence?

Daily connection creates a deep opportunity for transformation. Sporadic use offers momentary support.  You may feel called to a 30 day relationship with one Essence to integrate its energy and wisdom fully.

 

When is the best time to take it?

Moments of stillness are ideal — morning, before bed, or before meditation. Also when emotions stir, or insight and support are needed. Being present amplifies the medicine.

 

How long should I work with an Essence?

A bottle typically lasts 4 - 6 weeks. Some complete in one cycle. Others return to the same plant over months or years as layers unfold. Trust the natural rhythm of your process.

 

Can I take more than one Essence at a time?

Yes. You may work with one Essence as a primary teacher, and others as allies alongside it. If combining multiple, 1 - 2 is usually plenty to keep the work clear. Less can be more. As you build Devic alliances, you can grow your team.

 

What if I don’t feel anything - is it still working?

Not all shifts feel dramatic. Some are soft, cumulative, subtle. You may notice changes in mood, dreams, relationships, clarity, synchronicity, emotional release, or creative flow over time. 

 

How can I tell if an Essence is working for me?

Signs may include:
• feeling more like yourself
• insight, memory, or emotional clearing
• gentle or profound shifts in perspective
• increased sensitivity or intuition
• old patterns rising to be released
• a sense of connection, relief, or returning home

If you feel nothing, that's okay. Stillness can be integration.

 

Do the Essences contain psychoactive compounds?

No. They contain no active alkaloids. 

 

Are they safe and legal?

Yes. They contain only water, alcohol, and vibrational imprint. Legal worldwide though import rules vary by country. Always check locally if unsure.

 

Can I give Essences to children or pets?

Yes — many people do, in diluted form. The Essences contain 13% alcohol, like a low-proof tincture. Reduce alcohol by adding drops into water, tea, or a spray. Start with tiny doses for little bodies — they are sensitive and respond beautifully.

 

What if I’m sensitive to alcohol or sober?

You may add drops into hot water to allow alcohol to dissipate. Or rub on pulse points, crown, heart chakra, or place in an aura spray. Your energy field receives the frequency even without ingestion.

 

I’m in alcohol recovery — can I still use Essences?

Yes, if it feels safe for you. You may avoid tasting it by diluting into water, spraying around your energy field, or rubbing on body points. Honour your boundaries - You and your sobriety come first. If you prefer your Essences in water only, send us an email. 

 

Are there any contraindications?

Because there are no alkaloids or actives, Essences don’t interfere with medication. However, deep work may bring emotions or memories to the surface. This is part of healing. Go gently. Seek support if needed.

 

Can I take Essences while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Energetically, yes — but every pregnancy is sacred and unique. If uncertain, dilute into water or use externally. Always listen to your own intuition and body wisdom.

 

What if I have allergies to the plant?

There’s no plant material present, only vibrational imprint. Allergies to the physical plant rarely translate to Essence sensitivity — but proceed gently if unsure. Start with one drop and observe.

 

How should I store my Essences?

Keep cool, out of direct sunlight. Treat like a sacred ally. They travel well and like to live on an altar.

 

Do they expire?

Bottles are dated 3 years from creation, though they often remain potent well beyond. If ever in doubt, add to an aura spray or room mist — the vibration remains alive.

 

How quickly will I notice effects?

Some feel shifts immediately — a softening, remembering, peace. For others it unfolds more subtly - gradual and gentle.

 

Can Essences bring emotions up?

Yes. They may stir what is ready to be healed. This is medicine doing its work. Breathe, ground, journal, rest, reach for support if needed. Sensitivity is a sign of opening.

 

How do I choose which Essence to work with?

Follow the call. Which one are you curious about? Which one glows, tingles, whispers? You may also choose based on intention, symptom, or desired support. Intuition and resonance are true guides.

 

Do I need intention-setting?

Intention opens the door - A simple breath, a quiet prayer, a hand on your heart. But not required — the plants know why they came.

 

Should I journal my journey?

Highly recommended. Dreams, insights, emotions — the unfolding becomes clearer when recorded over time.

 

Can I use Essences in ceremony or meditation?

Yes — they pair beautifully with ritual, healing work, breathwork, cacao, sound journeys, yoga, prayer, forest walks. They deepen presence and connection. These beauties were made for horizontalling!

 

Where are the Essences made?

Crafted in Aotearoa, New Zealand, in partnership with the Devas, the Land, and the Master Plant Teachers. Created with prayer, song, stillness, and deep listening.

 

Are they sustainably made?

Yes. Only minimal or living plant material is involved to carry the energetic imprint — far less than tincture or tea. Respect for the Plant Kingdom is foundational.

 

Why Master Plants?

These are ancient teachers - wise, loving, and powerful. They remember who we are and help us remember too. Working in Essence form allows access without needing to ingest or journey.

 

Can Essences support grief / trauma / awakening / creativity / purpose?

Yes. Each Essence has its personality, gifts, and realm. Some soothe the heart. Some inspire vision. Some excavate our shadow, while others guide rebirth. The plant knows where to go.

 

Do I need guidance?

Not necessarily  - many walk beautifully alone. But for deeper work, private sessions or recommendations can accelerate clarity and integration.

 

How do I know when it’s time to change Essence?

You may simply feel complete. Or a new Essence may begin appearing in dreams, through synchronicity or pop up in conversation etc. 

 

Can I layer multiple Essences?

You can, though it's often best to let one be the main guide and others the supporting chorus. If using several, introduce slowly.

 

Can I gift Essences?

Yes. Beautiful for birthdays, rituals, rites of passage, healing moments, threshold crossings. 

 

Do you ship internationally?

Yes — with respect to local customs laws. International orders are welcome.

 

What if uncomfortable things arise?

Be gentle with yourself and trust the process. The plant is showing where love wants to flow. Slow down, breathe, rest, and reach for support. Healing is not always tidy — but it is sacred and worthwhile.
