💜 Violet (Viola odorata / V. tricolor) is energetically cooling and moist in nature. It is therefore mostly directed towards treating the symptoms of heat and dryness. It is also, however, very specific for dampness and congestion due to its alterative and lymphatic activities.
The typical patient indicated for violet is one who has flaccid, loose skin, prone to cysts, swollen glands and infections with a low immune activity. Another clinical sign that may indicate violet is moist skin and palms.
