DEFINITION
One of our
favorite patterns on a properly calibrated and designed hair mineral chart is the
hill. It is a powerful indicator
of healing at a deep level and greater joy.
A hill pattern
on a hair mineral test is present when the calcium/magnesium ratio is less than
about 4.5, and the sodium/potassium ratio is above about 4.5. The hair analysis must be done by a
laboratory that does not wash the hair for accurate results. It is a joy, celebration or completion
pattern.
A visual pattern. Visual patterns on hair mineral charts
are a fascinating study. In this
case, the first four macromineral bar graphs on a hair chart, only from
Analytical Research Labs, have the appearance of a hill or mountain.
However, the
visual effect may not be noticeable if any of the four macromineral levels are
so elevated that they do not exceed the top of the hair mineral chart. In this case, one must calculate the
pattern based only on the calcium/magnesium and the sodium/potassium ratios.
A very yang pattern. The hill pattern is one of the most
yang patterns possible. It is a
fullness, which is a yang indicator that can appear at any time, even if a
person is ill and has an underlying yin condition of the body.
Visually, it
looks like a bulge or fullness (yang) and the acupuncture pulses feel full, as well.
A goal post pattern. A hill pattern is a type of goal post
pattern. This is a visual pattern
of two mineral levels that are high that are flanked on both sides by visually
lower mineral readings. The goal
post pattern is an achievement pattern – like reaching the goal.
Types of hill patterns. These are discussed at the end of this
article and include a steep hill, a fast hill, a slow hill, a persistent hill,
a long hill and a balanced hill.
History: The hill
pattern is a newer pattern that was not part of Dr. Paul EckÕs original
research. In 2006, we added this
pattern to the development work.
It indicates:
- turning a corner.
- a knowing, like having a 360 degree view because you are
standing on the top of a mountain and can look all around.
- overcoming something.
- a release from a bondage or situation.
- reaching a peak or top of the hill.
- a celebration or joy pattern.
- openness to moving forward in oneÕs life.
- a yang mineral pattern, and a fullness pattern.
- a balanced hill indicates overcoming with understanding.
Like being
at the top of a hill, one can now Òspread oneÕs wingsÓ and move in any
direction rather easily. As the
saying goes, Òit is all downhill from hereÓ. The pattern may also indicate less involvement in a karmic
or difficult situation at this time, as if one is viewing the world from the
top of a mountain rather than being deeply involved in the world at this time.
THE HILL VERSUS THE BOWL PATTERN
To
help understand the hill pattern, consider its opposite, which is the bowl pattern.
Ways in which these patterns are opposites are:
1. In the
bowl pattern, the Na/K ratio is low, while the Ca/Mg ratio is elevated. This is the exact reverse of the hill
pattern.
2. Visually, the patterns look exactly opposite one another. The bowl looks like a U shape, while the hill looks like an inverted U.
3. Psychologically and emotionally, the bowl indicates that a
person feels stuck, constricted, confined, yin, empty, lost or Òdeep in the
mudÓ. This pattern looks like and
is an emptiness and a more yin pattern associated with mineral
deficiencies. In acupuncture, it
is a Ôyin deficiencyÕ and often Ôblood deficiencyÕ.
A
hill pattern indicates an opposite situation. It is a fullness.
One is more free, carefree and released from some kind of bondage.
ANALYSIS IN TERMS OF THE MINERAL RATIOS
The meaning
of this pattern is based on observation of many cases. However, it may be easier to understand
by analyzing the two ratios that make up the pattern:
1. A low calcium/magnesium ratio. This is sometimes called the lifestyle
ratio. When the ratio is low, it
often indicates a certain openness and lack of defensiveness. A very low ratio can also indicate an
issue having to do with oneÕs mother, such as holding on to anger toward oneÕs
mother. However, this is not true
with the hill pattern.
2. An elevated sodium/potassium ratio. This can indicate acute stress, anger,
or inflammation. In this case, it
seems to indicate a type of inflammation that is positive, forward-looking, and
moving ahead strongly.
A high
sodium/potassium ratio can also indicate a tendency for the oxidation rate to
increase. I call it a directional
indicator. With a hill pattern,
there is a tendency for an increase in the oxidation rate.
Combining
these creates a situation in which a person is moving ahead, and is not held
back by defensiveness or anything else.
Acupuncture
equivalent. Advanced
acupuncture recognizes a very similar pattern, which is also called the hill
because the pulses suggest this shape.
It is called the fullness or sometimes called overflowing yang or yang
fullness.
III. SYMPTOMS ASSOCIATED
WITH A HILL PATTERN
A powerful joy
pattern. This is the most
important aspect of a hill pattern.
Joy patterns mean that one is making progress in the
mental/emotional/spiritual area.
The
presence of joy patterns is more important than a worsening of some levels or
ratios.
For this
reason, we always look for hill patterns first or early on when interpreting a
hair mineral chart. If one does
not do this, one is not interpreting the hair chart correctly and often becomes
confused and thinks that things are worse, when this is not so.
A
hill pattern is not associated with any particular physical symptoms. Physical, emotional or other symptoms
may still be present when this pattern appears.
A hill
pattern may be accompanied by an improvement in physical health, but this may
be subtle.
For this
reason, one is often unaware of the pattern, although many people report more
joy or happiness when this pattern is present.
A soul pattern. A hill seems to be reflect changes at a
deep level or soul level, rather than at the physical health level.
WHEN THE PATTERN APPEARS
As an initial pattern. A hill pattern is fairly common on an
initial hair mineral test if the person is excited to begin a development
program. This represents a
celebration and feeling of reaching a goal of finding answers for their health
and/or for development.
As a retest pattern. Hill patterns appear fairly often
during a development program and represent overcoming some obstacle or
difficulty.
Men and women. Hill patterns occur at about the same
rate in men and in women.
An adult pattern. We observe most, if not all hill
patterns in adults, not in children.
Most likely, this is because children are less able to work through and
overcome negative situations to arrive at the hill or overcoming pattern. The reason they are often less able to
overcome is they are much less in control of their lives.
A child
might show a hill pattern if his or her parents move away from a negative
situation or in some other way overcome a negative situation. However, even then, we donÕt see hill
patterns often in children.
IV. TYPES OF HILL PATTERNS
AND RELATED TOPICS
THE DOUBLE HILL PATTERN
This
occurs when a hill pattern appears on the first four minerals (calcium,
magnesium, sodium and potassium), AND on the second four minerals (iron, copper,
manganese and zinc).
The
second four minerals have to do with a deeper
level of functioning of a human being.
This level is usually hidden, although it may appear in the human aura
as a particular ÒpictureÓ or level.
The
double hill pattern is fairly rare.
However, when it appears on either an initial hair test or a retest, it
indicates Òexcitement within and withoutÓ. In other words, it is a deeper joy and celebration pattern
than a single hill.
The
client with a double hill may or may not be consciously aware of the joy and
celebration energy that is present.
This is because sometimes many symptoms are still present, and the
person can be focused on these instead of on the overall situation or
improvement in oneÕs health.
The criteria
for a hill on the second four minerals are:
1. The
iron/copper ratio less than about 0.5
AND
2. The
manganese/zinc ratio greater than 0.003.
A STEEP HILL PATTERN
This
pattern looks more like a mountain rather than a hill. It is a more extreme hill pattern. It requires a calcium/magnesium ratio
of 3.5 or less and a sodium/potassium ratio of 15 or greater.
Recently
(February 2019) we found that this pattern occurs when a woman eliminates a lot
of zirconium from her body. We
believe that every steep hill pattern is a zirconium elimination, though we are
still researching this.
Zirconium
elimination corresponds to a ÔrevelationÕ that so far, women have about their
behavior in the sexual arena, and is related to the rogue presence on
earth. For details about this
interesting situation, read Zirconium.
We believe
the steepness of a hill pattern is an indication of the intensity of the
feeling of joy or celebration. A
steeper hill pattern also may indicate more sympathetic dominance is present.
A LONG HILL OR BIG RISE
This
is a hill-like pattern that spans the first 6 or more mineral levels. The criteria for it are very different
since the graphs of the first four minerals usually all rise progressively,
while the next 2, 3, 4 or more mineral graphs decline.
A big rise
is not a common pattern, but it occurs and indicates a type of global or
overall joy.
A
DISCONNECTED HILL
This is an
unusual variant in which, for example, the third through the tenth mineral on
an ARL hair mineral chart are in the shape of a hill, but not the first and the
second minerals (calcium and magnesium).
This indicates
a joy pattern, but with a problem that is disturbing the hill pattern.
A PERSISTENT HILL PATTERN
This
is a retest pattern or progression pattern. (A retest pattern means a pattern that only appears on a retest hair
mineral analysis. In this case,
the persistent hill pattern requires two successive hair mineral tests to see
the pattern. A progression
pattern means three or more successive hair tests are required to see the
pattern).
A
persistent hill somewhat uncommon, but it does occur. It indicates an ongoing excitement, joy or celebration. It is seen more in some families, for
some reason. One possible reason
is a very good marriage situation.
Another possible reason is a good set of Judeo-Christian moral values
that contribute to great joy and happiness, even if financial or other
circumstances are not perfect.
SYMPATHETIC DOMINANCE AND THE HILL PATTERN
Most
of the time, when a person has a hill pattern, he or she also has a sympathetic
dominant pattern such as an elevated sodium/potassium ratio with a three high
pattern.
This
is an interesting correlation that we believe mainly indicates that when one is
in a hill pattern, one may feel like pretending one can increase the oxidation
rate and push oneself to enjoy life more.
For more on this topic, read Sympathetic
Dominance.
FOUR HIGH HILL AND FOUR LOW HILL
These
are variants on the hill pattern.
A four
high hill means that a four highs pattern is present, along with the
hill. This is an excellent
combination pattern, like a very tall mountain, with lots of joy and
celebration.
A
four lows hill
means a four lows pattern combined with a hill pattern. Four lows is an exhaustion metabolic
type. The combination with a hill
is unusual, and indicates excitement even though the person is in a four lows
pattern. We could say it is light
appearing at the end of the tunnel of four lows.
BALANCED HILL
This
is a hill pattern AND the ratios indicate a balanced oxidation rate. It is also an excellent combination
pattern. The best is called perfect balance. For this, all four of the main ratios
(Ca/K, Na/K, Ca/Mg and Na/Mg) must be 4.22.
A
balanced pattern may offer some of the same benefits as when one has many Anchor patterns.
FAST OXIDIZER HILL VERSUS SLOW OXIDIZER HILL
PATTERNS
These
are also called a fast hill (a hill with a fast oxidation rate) and a slow hill (a hill
with slow oxidation rate). Both
types are seen on hair tests, although a slow hill is more common.
A fast hill
may indicate a more exciting situation.
A slow oxidizer hill pattern, or a slow hill, may indicate a type of settling down
into a joyous or celebration mode of life.
AN UNEVEN HILL
At
times, one of the two ratios that define the pattern (Ca/Mg or Na/K) is very
intense or abnormal, while the other is nearer to the ideal ratio. We have not researched this variation in
the hill pattern enough to give its meaning.
A BOWL PLUS A HILL PATTERN
This
is a rather unusual combination pattern.
It consists of a bowl pattern, with a hill pattern superimposed on top
of the bowl. It is actually fairly
common. However, it is difficult
to see or visualize, so it is often missed. It is hard to visualize because the hill and the bowl tend
to cancel each other out, to one degree or another.
Its
meaning is that the person is stuck and usually very deficient
nutritionally. However, the person
is also excited and joyful at the same time.
This pattern
can appear on a first hair test or more commonly, on a retest.
A
hint or indicator of this pattern is that the calcium/magnesium ratio will be
fairly normal, even though the person eats too many carbohydrates and therefore
one would expect the calcium/magnesium ratio to be elevated.
I sometimes
hear from consultants that hair testing is not accurate because the
calcium/magnesium ratio is Òtoo normal-lookingÓ, given the clientÕs diet. The presence of a bowl plus a hill pattern can explain
some of these instances.
HILLING AND BOWLING
Definition of hilling. On a retest hair analysis, the
calcium/magnesium ratio is lower and the sodium/potassium ratio is higher. However, a hill pattern is not yet
present. The direction of change of the ratios is
what is important to define the pattern.
The opposite. This pattern may be contrasted with bowling,
which is its opposite. In the
bowling pattern, the calcium/magnesium ratio increases on a retest, while the
sodium/potassium ratio decreases on the same retest. It may indicate movement into a retracing situation, usually
with less joy and less celebration and a more difficult health or
mental/emotional situation.
