Summary
Through particularly expressive drawings, a patient gives us direct access to the psychology of Mandragora, a magical plant known as far back as the time of the Egyptians. The study of the remedy led us to discover a proving carried out in Germany in 1996 with C30, C200 and C1000 potencies. That proving contains a large number of mental symptoms that confirm the observation.
