Perform the preliminary exercises and then project the Table Round. Take your place at your siege. Observe that you are clothed in a hooded robe of deep blue-violet, the indigo color of Akasha.

This robe and these sandals should be your usual inner attire when working within the Tower. 

The cryptic talmudic comparisons of the color of tekhelet to that of grass, trees, the sea, and the sky is understood now as reference to the chromatic sequence that occurs in nature when the colorless mucus from the snail, upon exposure to the elements, first becomes yellow, then gradually changes to green, followed by blue, and finally becomes violet (15).

A Three Viscum samples (3-5) collected from different trees show syringin (T4) at R, — 0.45, and a variation of blue-violet and yellow zones due to other lignans and various phenol carboxylic acids. The pharmaceutical preparation 6 has an additional prominent blue zone above the syringin test.

Mr 240.26, yellow needles, mp. 206-208 °C, soluble in alcohol, chloroform, or fats. C. is the main component of a mixture of various an-thrones and anthranols known as chrysarobinum obtained by benzene extraction from araroba or goa powder (yellow-brown powder from cavities in the heart-wood of the 20-30 m high tree Andira araroba, Fabaceae, endemic to Brazil and for long cultivated in India) which, after dying on wool, gives a dark violet color. C. is also isolated from Cassia and Rumex species and from Ferreirea spectabilis (Fabaceae) it is also formed by Penicillium islandicum. 

Conifer wood, balm trees, citrus fruits, coriander, eucalyptus, lavender, lemon grass, lilies, carnation, caraway, peppermint species, roses, rosemary, sage, thyme, violet and many other plants or parts of those (roots, rhizomes, stems, leaves, blossoms, fruits, seed) are well known to smell pleasantly, to taste spicy, or to exhibit specific pharmacological activities. Terpenes predominantly shape these properties. In order to enrich terpenes, the plants are carved, e.g. for the production of incense or myrrh from balm trees usually, however, terpenes are extracted or steam distilled, e.g. for the recovery of the precious oil of the blossoms of specific fragrant roses. These extracts and steam distillates, known as ethereal or essential oils ("essence absolue") are used to create fine perfumes, to refine the flavor and the aroma of food and drinks and to produce medicines of plant origin (phytopharmaca). 

In addition to mulberrofuran I (138) the reddish-violet powder on the surface of cultivated mulberry trees, gave five minor phenolic compounds, namely kuwanols A (139), B (140), mulberrofurans P (141), M (142), and Q (143). 

For patients with infected wounds, two basic treatment protocols are available for medical practioners systemic administration of antibiotics, and topical appUcation of antimicrobial agents on the wounded area directly. While systemic antibiotics are outside the scope of this ch ter, over the years many topical antimicrobial agents have been used to treat wound infection. These are briefly summarized below. In addition to these main materials, other antimicrobial agents that can be used in wound management include tea tree oil and gentian violet ointmaiL Extracts of tea are also said to have inhibitory effects on MRS A.
