Kent says Though classed among inert substances and thought to be useful for rolling up allopathic pills Hahnemann brought it into use and developed its power by attenuation. It enters deep into the life. There is nothing about man that Lycopodium does not rouse into tumult.'
Dr. Kent explains that the Lycopodium patient wants to be alone but likes to feel that somebody is in the next room because he fears to be alone. He also fears death and the dark. This patient weeps when meeting a friend, is tired with chronic fatigue is forgetful, and therefore has aversion to undertaking anything new. The mind of the Lycopodium patient is better developed than the body they often look older than they really are.
The Lycopodium patient anticipates things and is nearly sick until they happen; then he goes through everything feeling on top of the world. He cannot think how he can make a speech but when he gets on his feet he feels quite confident.
