To Help, Herbs To Heal.......

"Within the magickal garden, there within the beautiful flowers, grows herbs of various names and gifts. Each unique to its own, blending its scents with the smells of the garden itself..."

There are various herbs used for many different kinds of ailments. Some soothe the nerves, while others help with emotions. Used wisely they can be a wonderful asset to magickal workings.

There are several books upon the subject, and courses on-line and in the classroom these days so finding information out about them will be easy. It is a good thing to see the medical profession begin to take a look at herbology, but the subject seems to have a long way to go before its fully accepted.

Herbs and all plant life have several guardian dragons to them. The brown and green dragons are the nutural patrons to all places, such as forests, woodland, gardens and such. Yet one must remember that The Mother Dragon is the dragon of all fertility. The faery dragon are proud guardians of gardens and flowers and the Earth Dragonette is patron of woodlands. By working with these dragons alongside your herbs, You may yet find more hidden powers in your plants that you never realized.
