Herbalism

The witches we read about and see in the movies are always casting spells. Have we taken time to notice what they use along with their words?

Some uses the compass directions. Others use drops of blood, depending on the spell they are casting. But have we ever paid attention to how much a witch uses herbs in their life? We all know there are lots of herbs used for home remedies, so why would they be any less important to a Witch. If we stop and think back, years and years ago, they used herbs to treat the sick. Just like some of us still believe that the best trick for a burn in aloe-vera. Just like some of us still rely on our cross neck to keep away the devil.

So, next time we dig around on the internet looking for a home remedy for a migraine or other aches and pains that are plaguing us and modern medication seems to fail to stop, think about this little bit of information. You never know, you might find yourself seeking out a herbalist among the Witches.
