#Yarrow

Hey good people ! Thought I'd break the ice on this fabulous new platform . Was out walking these past few days and see one of my strongest plant Allie's in the healing field Yarrow -is starting to leaf out for the first time this year . Making fresh leaf readily and heavily available for quick needs. But also bringing the spirit of the plant closer to being easily available . Also showing me despite what man says - spring and it's energies are definately here .

It kind of makes sense when I watch over long term the physical body of the plant and it's habits . How it grows and moves and when and why.

In the physical making balms , oils and salves. Out of the leaf . Incredible anti inflammatory, anti itch , scratches and cuts . This plant not only stops the bleeding , even in a balm form, but all the redness and irritation around the site will go away. That's impressive . I've had clients with hemorrhoids use it for instant relief and reduction of swelling . There's a huge chance yarrow is growing just around the corner from you. A friendly plant . That once a relationship is established you'll see it everywhere FIRST.

The flowers is my go to for fever issues . Bath works. My favorite and most used cauldron . I make a magickal tea out of the bath basically and put the fevered person inside . Step inside my cauldron .

The flowers make sense to me. They work the way they do Vs the cuts and inflammation skillsets of the leaf. Look outside and find her and you'll see . Almost as if the two are two different entities yet one in the same . Twins with different purposes . The leaf will grow and grow . All on its on own spiraling out low . Until the heat of late spring summer hits . The heat of summer is when the stalks that hold the flowers start to pop . At least from my observations . It's got to get hot first . There's a relationship there I feel.

My own yarrow I started from seed never flowered nor gave a stalk for one . But there it is this morning in my pot leafing out like mad . Ready to thrive with me another year . The field north of me is covered in it .

This year I plan on working with the gods less and the plants more . This plant growing it was more a leave me alone and let me do my own thing type of plant . I've noticed the plants I work with the most or that meet me at the edge of my cauldron to participate are like this . Get them going and let them do their own thing . Huge connections .
