Important Information About Herbs
Herbs by themselves have little magickal power. In order to practice true witchcraft using herbs, the herbs must be infused with power. This is advanced and requires knowledge of the elements and the ability to invoke/evoke and direct them. Each herb carries elemental properties that correspond to its medicinal uses. These can be found under planetary rulerships. In addition, to really empower herbs, planetary hours should be observed to amplify any working. Due to a lack of time, I am presently unable to list all of the properties of the herbs, but intend to do so at a later date. The following articles should be of interest:
