Household Use of the Orgone Energy Accumulator by Renata Moise Reich T o begin, I feel it important to present some background about the Orgone Energy Accumulator, and how my family has used the accumulator over four generations. My parents, William Moise and Eva Reich settled in 1952 on the rugged Atlantic coast of North America, in Hancock, Maine, USA. They chose Hancock over the South Pacific because Margaret Mead met with them and advised them to save the world closer to home – this really happened- and because the towns around Hancock needed both a doctor (my mother) and an art teacher (my father). Most importantly, Hancock was within a few hours drive of Rangeley, Maine, the interior village of lakes surrounded by mountains, where my mother’s father, the scientist Wilhelm Reich, had established his summer home and laboratories. He named this complex in Rangeley, Orgonon, after the energetic substance he called Orgone Energy. He chose Rangeley because of the clear atmosphere (at that time) and the low summer humidity; he had found that his experimental results changed during the high humidity of New York summers. Imagine this: a young woman doctor arrives in an area which has never before seen a woman doctor. Some homes do not yet have indoor plumbing or electricity. There are several families who have fifteen or twenty children. There is no health insurance for anyone and certainly no special health care program for the poor or elderly. This is an isolated, beautiful and difficult land; populated by fishermen, farmers, or woods men. Some have jobs, but most work for themselves. Women do the hard work of raising, feeding, and clothing their families, or working for the wealthy “summer people” in the few warm months.
