Herbs in Wicca
By Jacqueline S
Herbs have been used for centuries in the use of treating illnesses. To this day, people around the world use herbs for treatments and cosmetics.
Ancient Egyptians were experts in the knowledge of herbs. Written texts found, dated 1500 B.C., hold references to over 700 herbal remedies and uses. The Chinese have used herbs for over 5000 years. A Chinese medical journal written in 2700 B.C. lists 13 herbal remedies.
In countries all around the world, the old ways are still practiced and many more turn to herbal use everyday.
With all this history, it is not surprising that herbs are a very important part of Wicca. They are used throughout the craft in cleansing rituals, healing the sick and spell work. Wicca herbs can be burned, embedded into candles and be used for extracting essential oils that they contain. Spell work would not be complete without specific Wicca herbs used for their properties.
Many of these special plants are used in charm bags from warding off evil to finding true love. Many different herbs can be used in Spells and Rituals to help in any area of your life.
Herbs are found in the wild and can even be grown in small container gardens for your own use. Or visit a Wiccan site to find the herbs that you need.
Wicca Herbs are a wonderful natural addition to any work... do'nt be afraid to use them
Happy Magick
About the author: Jacqueline was born in the Uk in 1969, and moved to Canada when she was 20 years old. She became interested in Wicca and Paganism many years ago and began a solitary practice along with taking several classes at a local metaphysical shop. She began making her own herb blends a few years ago and it escalated from there. She enjoys what she does and finds working with different herbs and making soaps and lotions from scratch very rewarding. She started sending off handmade soaps to friends and family and they just loved them and she makes herbal blends for people who ask. One feels very close to the earth when she deals with herbs and such, much like gardening and watching things grow, it's a very gratifying thing. The articles she writes are based on what she knows and what she does. She will be gratified if someone reads her articles and finds them helpful.
