Anecdotal: The spirit within Cypripedium is invoked to address spiritual pain that has led to anxiety, impaired rest, and loss of spiritual clarity. It resolves stagnation of creativity or direction, and reinvigorates determination. Cypripedium is a guardian of sacred cycles and considered love medicine. Bundles of Cypripedium hung near beds are believed to induce profound or prophetic dreams.
