The Madonna Lily is the second Queen of the Flowers. Side by side with the rose it has been mankind's companion for thousands of years. The Rose has an affinity to the sun, the Madonna Lily to the moon. The Lily lives in the polarity bulb – flower. The bulb, which grows unusually close to the surface, has more in common with leaves and is in direct contact with the leaf rosette which provides it with nourishment. Both are oriented around the earth's surface, the skin of our planet. This indicates a relationship to the human skin. The bulb is an extremely compacted expression of leaf and stalk, a watery, mucilaginous tumescence at the boundary with the earth. This tense, compacted bearing practically explodes into the stem which shoots upwards like an arrow and at the very top of which the extravagant blooms open up to the sun and the warmth. The Madonna Lily is able to transform the stasis and hardness of the bulb into intoxicating beauty.
The mucilaginous bulbs of the Madonna Lily are used in WALA's Dr.Hauschka Rhythmic Night Conditioner and Intensive Treatment 04. The rhythmised extracts help to preserve the moisture of the skin and are a model for the dissolving of connective tissue indurations and callosities.
