Asarum
patients have the sensation as if their limbs were floating out of their
physical body. While walking on the street they may experience the feeling that
their limbs are floating in the air. Their hands seem as if they are floating
in the air. Imagines he is hovering in air like a spirit, when walking in open
air. It is not a mere sensation however; it is a sensation which produces
tremendous panic. It is as if the person were diffusing - as if their limbs were
diffusing outward. In the Repertory one can find Asarum in the rubrics:
"sensation as if floating in the air" or "of walking in the
air," but the actual feelings and circumstances are as I have described.
They feel at that moment as if they may die or go crazy or that their entire
being may disintegrate. Their mind becomes confused, and, finally, they begin
to contemplate giving up their studies.
One sees the opposite state as well in which parts of the body feel fixed or stuck, especially the eyes. The eyes feel as if they are stuck in their sockets and cannot be moved. (HPATHY)

Asarum patients can also develop a fixed idea that there
is a pressure inside their head compressing the brain and preventing it from
movement, preventing it from thinking. The tongue feels stuck and incapable of
motion. In Clarke’s Materia Medica the symptom "sensation as if the eyes
would be pressed asunder to the side" is noted. That which I have
encountered more frequently is the feeling that the parts of the body are stuck
and cannot be moved. So, one sees in Asarum two contrasting processes -
diffusion on the one hand and solidification on the other.
