People
Clematis is for people whose minds drift away from the present into fantasies of the future, or into alternative versions of the present. Often they dream of future success, creative endeavour and achievement. The danger is that they are not sufficiently anchored in reality to make their dreams happen. The remedy helps bring us back to earth and back to ourselves so that we can act to build a better life, instead of living in daydreams. Sometimes people confuse the Clematis state with Honeysuckle, but the two are quite different. In the Honeysuckle state we live in nostalgic fantasies of the past or relive old regrets; as Clematis people our thoughts drift away to imagined futures. Suggested for those who have a tendency to live in a dream world with little interest in the real world.
