Herbs, Working With


Herbs/plants can have magickal, and medicinal, properties. To charge, and/or bless, herbs (always bless them, where possible): place them in your projective hand (or the hand with which you write), the herbs, that is, and imagine/visualize white light flowing into them. Say something for your need, such as, "Cinnamon, herb of the sun, make love grow!" You can then burn them, place them in a pouch, in a charm bag, in a bath, some of them can be used in tea, balefires, essential oils, Bach flower remedies, sauves, creams, and so on. Various parts of a plant can be used, to note. Use your imagination. Don't ingest/eat/drink herbs unless you know they're not poisonous; and consult a licensed physician if you have medical problems, too.
