AURUM SULFURATUM
The remedy has the characteristics of Aurum but the influence of sulphur is strong. There is a resemblance with Aurum sulphuricum as well. The person has the feeling that he is not appreciated by others and exercises great efforts to be appreciated, to obtain praise and admiration. It is an important antisycotic remedy. As we have stated in the unified theory of idiosyncrasy, the sycotic miasm corresponds to fixation at the anal developmental stage of psychoanalytic theory.
The above characteristics show us a general tendency for stagnation, for immobility. They direct us towards a certain group of remedies which can help a lot with differential diagnosis but do not help us prescribe the absolutely similar remedy.
When Kent stated that there were three main remedies for the sycotic miasm, that is Thuja, Natrum sulphuricum and Meddhorinum, he did not possess knowledge of many important remedies known today, of the sulphur compounds, for instance. Whenever the homeopath, finds out that sycosis is prominent in one of his patients, he prescribes one of the basic antimiasmatic remedies, Natrum sulfuricum, for example in order to effect a clearer picture.
He has then used a partly similar remedy. In such a case, he prescribes for the outer “layer” of symptoms. After the latter have subsided he will prescribe for the next “layer” and so forth. This is a method which Hahnemann used to employ a lot because he had very few remedies at his disposal. However, the more remedies we know of in depth, the more possible it is to approach the similar remedy. Aurum sulfuratum is one of the remedies which has not been prescribed as often as required, because there has been an undue stress on the layers approach. In one case, for example, the patient had taken Sulfur, Nitric acid and Aurum over a period of eight years. He had improved; however, as soon as he was given Aurum sulfuratum, he felt a lot better, he experienced great change in his life and a fuller and more permanent improvement of his symptoms. Due to the above findings, I believe that a deep understanding of this kind of study of the periodic table will help a lot with the evolution of our therapeutic art.
Let us come back to Aurum sulfuratum. These are people who are visionaries and have the tendency to be the best in everything they undertake; however, they often feel they are not appreciated in spite of all their efforts. They may be strong individuals who function as a support to those around them; however, they feel that they are actually not as appreciated as they should be. They constantly strive to win this appreciation. When they do not manage this in spite of their efforts, they become irritable and very critical of others. We find quite a number of sycotic characteristics in their personalities; their physical characteristics are very similar to those of Natrum sulfuricum.
A depressive state may appear when the individual’s efforts to implement his visions or to win the appreciation of others are not effective. Here we must distinguish between this state and the depression of Aurum metallicum in that the element of control is developed, and, consequently, the suicidal ideation is rarely implemented.
Sycotic characteristics, when they exist in a depressive person, are among the positive signs that make suicide less probable. However, these same characteristics obstruct psychotherapy as they contribute to a lack of flexibility.

AURUM SULFURATUM MAGNESIATUM

AURUM IODATUM
This salt present in addition to the characteristics of Aurum, also present those of Iodum. The main characteristic is that the person lives with the intense feeling that he will be abandoned. Consequently, what we have here is a person who, all along with the dynamism and the visions of Aurum also harbours a delusion that he will be abandoned by those who support him. As he fears abandonement, he forms too strong an attachment to other people and spares no efforts to keep them by his side.
In Aurum iodatum we have a preponderance of the tubercular miasm. We have a person with a need for change as he easily becomes bored. For example, he likes travelling a lot. This is quite an amorous person; however, he feels that the partner may abandon the relationship. When we are dealing with a person which is very emotional, a person for whom the most important thing in life is the relationship with a love partner and in addition to that there is a feeling of insecurity, a feeling that the love partner will abandon the relationship, then the remedy needed is Natrum iodatum. When the person bonds himself with the group, that is with family or friends and harbours a feeling of insecurity stemming from a fear that they will abandon him, then the remedy is Kali iodatum.
Each and everyone of us has some life principles, some ideas about his and other people’s identity, about his relationship with others. Each one of us prioritizes various aspects of life in a different order. This prioritization has to do with our imaginary experience of reality. Consequently, in order to conceive a remedy in depth we have to understand the principles this remedy expresses, we have to conceive the concepts it is connected with. This is the true essence of the remedy and it is very important to truly conceive this essence. If we have a deep understanding of the remedy then we can prescribe it with ease. On the contrary, if we know a remedy only superficially and this happens when we base our knowledge on behaviors then, we easily confuse certain remedies.
Let us go back to Aurum iodatum. The feeling of insecurity coming from fear of abandonment makes this person giving to others; however he does this in a bothersome way. As the behavior of others is often interpreted as abandonment, the individual becomes irritable. The results of the above may be hypochondriasis or depression.
AURUM IODATUM NATRONATUM
If we are dealing with a person whom we perceive as Aurum iodatum and we see that abandonment is focused on the relationship with the life partner then the remedy should be Aurum iodatum natronatum. He tries his best not to be abandoned by his/her partner.
AURUM IODATUM KALINATUM
Similarly, if we have a person who fits well Aurum iodatum and we see that he fears he will be abandoned by friends or family, then the remedy is Aurum iodatum kalinatum. He tries his best not to be abandoned by friends.
AURUM IODATUM CALCAREATUM
When an Aurum iodatum person needs safety and protection the remedy is Aurum iodatum calcareatum. Therefore, Aurum iodatum calcareatum children are afraid of being abandoned if they are not creative or the best.
AURUM IODATUM MAGNESIATUM
The main concept of Aurum iodatum magnesiatum is the occurrence of visions in excess to avoid abandonment due to their orphanhood.
AURUM IODATUM SULFURATUM
When an Aurum iodatum person needs intensely appreciation too, the remedy is Aurum iodatum sulfuratum.
