“The Magickal Botanical Oracle is born from a deep love of the green world as seen through the eyes of the Witch. Witches see all things as alive, animate, and willing to commune with us if we are willing to stop, slow down, listen, and commune with them. The art of each plant is drawn from this ability to tune in with the eyes that can see and the ears that can hear to reach an understanding of the nature and personality of each plant, balanced with and verified by- a deeper look at the magickal lore and medicine surrounding each plant.” From the booklet by @christopherpenczak that go along with the beautiful illustrations by @maxinemiller999 - #magickalbotanicaloracle #witchsgarden #plantmagic #plantlore #occultbotany #phytognosis #plantmagick #witchingherbs #poisonpath #thepoisonpath #botanicalallies https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnj-Zs1rf8r/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Refilling blue lotus extracts today. These are a favorite and I make mine pretty strong. Blue lotus is great for relaxing the mind, soothing anxiety and bringing a sense of peaceful calm. Besides that it is also effective at relaxing the body, it has anti-spasmodic effects and acts as a natural muscle relaxer/soother. It great to take a few droppers before a bath in a cup of tea and feel the tension melt away. #bluelotus #sacredlotus #nymphaeacaerulea #herbalism #herbalmedicine #ethnobotanicals #pharmakon #plantspirit #plantspiritally #plantspiritmedicine #greenspirit #phytognosis #entheogen https://www.instagram.com/p/CSX6777rl9j/?utm_medium=tumblr

Taking another peek Keeping Her Keys by @cyndi_brannen_phd I bought my sister a copy to enrich her own spiritual practices. Brannen is a formidable witch, well-researched author and fellow poison path devotee. I highly recommend this book as working with Hekate In her chthonic aspects is a big part of my work with the various pharmaka associated with her. #hekate #hekatean #hekateanwitchcraft #witchcraft #trditionalwitchcraft #queenofwitches #witchqueen #chthonicmagic #chthonicsorcery #veneficium #pharmakon #phytognosis #deipnon https://www.instagram.com/p/CR108aaLNVG/?utm_medium=tumblr

Wooden Chambered Pendulums just listed on the website. Link in bio Pendulums as we know are used in divination in a technique know as dowsing. This was traditionally used to find water sources and precious mineral deposits as well as buried treasure. In order to find the object the dowser would carry a small piece of gold or other material along with them so that its vibration was present. These pendulums have fillable chambers, and are especially appropriate for the green practitioner because they are made out of would. These can be used for general divination, for working with a specific material and its correspondence or connecting with a specific plant spirit or familiar spirit. I will fill the pendulums upon request by email [email protected] These are the options Deadly Nightshade Henbane Poppy Datura Wolfsbane Mandrake Hemlock Mugwort & Wormwood Foxlgove Yew Hellebore Also my #spiritusquadratum and #deadmanspendulumbox not included The deck is the #alchemicaltarot #pendulum #dowsing #divination #phytognosis #plantspiritcongress #necromancy #spiritwork #entheogen #venefucium #poisonpath https://www.instagram.com/p/CSKoAVZLL1v/?utm_medium=tumblr

Datura innoxia- Mexican Thornapple- Toloache (there’s a few d. Metel but all info is for innoxia) Shamans of the Yucatec Maya use one leaf from datura innoxia and one leaf of tobacco to roll cigars what are smoked until the desired altered state of consciousness is achieved. The Yaqui Indians create an ointment from crushed seeds and leaves added to lard, which is rubbed on the abdomen to induce visions. #datura #toloache #mexicanthornapple #thornapple #nightshade #solanaceae #ethnobotanicals #entheogens #ritualentheogens #phytognosis #plantspiritally https://www.instagram.com/p/CQlo-_OL4Q1/?utm_medium=tumblr
