I want to make an isopathic remedy for my dog and need to triturate up to 3c. Does anyone know how long to triturate for each step?

Hello Karen, (I also explain for other members/students)

Can`t you use blood, pus, urine, saliva etc. to make this autonosode for your dog !

Trituration is usully done with minerals or metals. They are first ground down for a long time with milk sugar as the diluting agent to make them soluble and these are called triturations.

Remedies are then made by a series of dilutions, either on a scale of 1 part of original substance to 9 parts of alcohol, or 1 part to 99. This creates either the decimale scale (called x ), or the centesimal scale (called c).

The other component of the remedy-making process is succussion, whereby the medicine is shaken vigorously between each dilution.

Substances that have undergone these successive steps are termed potencies or dilutions (or sometimes attenuations).

Potencies are named according to the number of times they have been diluted and shaken up (succussed) in the x or c scale (e.g. 3x, 6x, 3c, 6c etc.). The dynamised (potentised) remedies are finally put into (sprayed on) a carrier substance, which are usually sugar pellets/pillules/granules/globules or tablets or liquids and then packaged in impervious bottles/vials or tubes.

Chemically, remedies beyond the 12c or 24x strength (potency) contain no more atoms or molecules of the original substance. They are purely `energy medicine`. The whole process releases the energetic blueprint of the substance and makes it available as a healing medicine (remedy).

Unlike herbal remedies, homeopathic remedies are never made at home, but always prepared (including the trituration you refer to) under strict conditions by a commercial manufacturer.

In case anyone wants to triturate him/herself anyway....do it as follows :

Combine metals/minerals etc, that are insoluble in their natural states with lactose sugar crystals and grind this combination repeatedly to form a powder fine enough to be soluble in water.

Of course it`s also possible to grind up crystalline substances, seeds, beans, skin flakes, etc. if they are hard, large, or insoluble in water.

Hope this (lecture ?...haha...) helps !

Hi Karen, This information is in the Organon,

one part substance to 1/3 of the 99 parts milk sugar, grind for a few
minutes, add more milk sugar (the next third) as that becomes fine,
alltogether grind for 15 minutes, scrape mortar and pestil for 5 minutes,
grind for another 15 minutes, scrape again for 5,(by this stage you will
have all the milk sugar in there) and repeat with the last 15 minutes of
grinding and 5 minutes of scraping

It is one hour for each step.

I do it in front of a good movie on TV and put both the mortar and pestil
INSIDE a plastic bag, if you do not do that, you will get powder all
over everything, you the room, etc.

Happy grinding.

Warmly, Maria

The correct Hahnemannian trituration is mentioned in the footnote of Aph. 270 of the 6th edition of the Organon.

Thanks for this. Actually, I'm making the remedy from house dust (the
dog has a skin condition and over the past few years we haven't been
able to find a suitable homeopathic remedy for him so we're trying
this now). I thought of using urine, but he is very selective about
where he releases it. Saliva might be a good bet. I'll keep it in
mind.

BTW, anyone know where can I get good quality lactose???

For lactose (milk sugar) you could e-mail Helios UK or Ainsworths UK (see their websites using Google searchbox ).

You can order House Dust or House Dust Mite nosode online from Helios UK. (Usual potency for dogs is the 30c potency.)
