Decades of Medicinal and Magickal Experience “The aim of this book is to give you the knowledge and tools for your own personal transformation using readily available tools and herbal ingredients. Partnered with each chapter on Planetary/herbal energies you will find tried and effective rituals, meditations, and workings that highlight the use of Magickal herbs designed to improve your life in all its myriad aspects. Each working has been used in a real-life situation, and each one has manifested its purpose. These rituals and meditations include practical and Magickal techniques to solve and improve both physical-world issues and workings devoted to understanding and actualizing your spiritual goals.” – Karen Harrison The Herbs and Their Planetary Signatures The Herbs of the Sun – Personal Power, Health and Success Energies: self-confidence, success, vitality, courage, authority, dignity, fame, self-knowledge Colors: gold, orange Number: 1 Metal: gold Stones/materials: diamond, citrine, yellow jasper, topaz Deities: Ra, Apollo, Helios, Lugh, Isis, Diana, Brigit Herbs: angelica, ash, bay, calendula, chamomile, celandine, eyebright, frankincense, juniper, mistletoe, rosemary, saffron, safflower, Saint-John’s wort, sunflower, tormentilla, walnuts In medicinal terms, the Sun could be considered the great restorative. Even as the returning Sun allows plant life to flourish on the Earth, the herbs attributed to the Sun act to restore health and vitality. They stimulate and balance the human health system that suffers from either excess or deficiency. The Herbs of Mars – Courage and Motivation Energies: victory, aggression, achievement, energy, action, assertiveness, strength, sexual desire Colors: scarlet, red, vermillion, orange Number: 5 Metal: iron Stones/materials: garnet, ruby, carnelian, bloodstone Deities: Ares, Hercules, Tiw, Minerva, Maeve, Pallas Athena Herbs: aloeswood, asafoetida, basil, broom tops, briony, cactus, cayenne, cumin, dragon’s blood resin, galangal, garlic, gentian, ginger, hawthorn, horseradish, honeysuckle, mustard, nettle, peppercorn, red sandalwood, rue, safflower, sanicle, wormwood The Planet Mars has a bad reputation, as it is often associated with destruction, impetuous action, strife, and aggression, but these are qualities that Mars expresses when its energies are not in balance. These energies are also those that protect and vitalize. The Herbs of Jupiter – Prosperity and Honor Energies: expansion, career, ambition, luck, material success, spiritual growth, humor Color: royal blue Number: 6 Metal: tin Stones/materials: sapphire, turquoise, blue topaz, lapis lazuli Deities: Zeus, Llyr, Thor, Hera, Gaea, Rhiannon Herbs: agrimony, borage, carnation, cedar, cinquefoil, dandelion, figs, fir, hyssop, linden, magnolia, maple, meadowsweet, oak, oak moss, pine, poplar, saffron, sage, sassafras, sumac, rosin, wood betony The energies of our largest Planet, Jupiter, are represented and expressed in the vocations of ruler, magistrate, philosopher, village elder, or priest and priestess. Jupiter is the Planet of the All-father in many pantheons, and the corresponding properties of generation, mercy, expansion, and beneficence are consistently fulfilled by the herbs attributed to Jupiter. Herbal Amulets and Magickal Potpourri Herbal Amulets are combinations of herbs, resins, and essential oils along with special stones, written wishes, and any other natural power object you like (such as a shell, acorn, or feather) gathered into an appropriately colored pouch for a ritual purpose. Herbal Amulets are also called medicine bags, power bags, mojo bags, and sachet bags in different folk cultures. If you choose to include a written wish, try to consolidate that wish into a short phrase or word that encompasses the goal. It should not be a paragraph or article. Let’s say that your goal is a better job with more pay, more creativity, and lots of perks. You don’t need to write all that—just write “perfect job” and you can meditate on and infuse the paper with all the things that you believe would go into a perfect job as you are writing your wish, I have found that if you state your goals concisely but leave a bit of the goal unstated, the Universe has an uncanny way of bringing you exactly what you need.
