I used to work in a hospital ( an ICU ), I was really surprised and impressed to see St. John’s Wort in our units medication room. Personally I like Vervain usually as a remedy for sleeplessness. Get very lucid and wild dreams though. Congratulations on the move. Blessings.

I love all of these herbs too & grow my own on my allotment because I’ve found I can develop a much deeper relationship with them this way. Wormwood is another I grow & use very often in my practice. St Johns Wort makes a wonderful red oil if you use the dried flower tips picked after the yellow petals have finished. The oil rubbed onto sore joints really does relieve aches & pains. I mostly use mine as the base of my protection oils. This is the only herbal oil that I make by keeping it in a sunny windowsill while it “brews”, instead of in a dark cupboard. I have two yarrow varieties, the usual white flowering one & a beautiful pink flowering type. Growing my own magical herbs 🌿 brings me great joy, I highly recommend it to every witch even if you can only have a windowbox

Wishing you much happiness and contentment in your new home, Ari! Thank you for the excellent topic. Mugwort is considered an invasive plant here on the East Coast of the US. Despite its bad reputation, I'm enjoying developing a working relationship with it. It is quite abundant in this area! I discovered a lovely native plant here in the St. John's wort family called St. Andrew's cross. It has vibrant yellow flowers with 4 petals. It loves our sandy soil by the coast. So far I've just been observing and photographing it, but would love to build a deeper relationship with it as well. Thank you for sharing your plant knowledge, Ari; would love to see more on this topic! Be well!🌿🍁🍃🍂

Yarrow is an anticoagulant, so the nose bleed tradition makes sense! Loved this video please do more!

I love mugwort! It's the first herb that drew my attention when I started practicing, and I use it everywhere. There are whole fields of it in my area. As for yarrow, if I may say, the one you show looks like a wild carrot, but I guess the video doen't allow to see the leaves well. The flowers are almost identical. Glad to see you happy in your new home!

Dew was really popular in alchemy, wasn’t it? I think it’s because it can embody all of the elements. But really, I just love that jar altar!

With yarrow you have to look out for poison hemlock, avoid any yarrow like plants that have a musty smell and purple spots. Crush a leaf and smell, yarrow has a piney smell.

Love your videos - very informative - I grow several of the herbs you mentioned ... although I tried to grow vervain from seed with no luck. There are over 150 species of vervain ( verbena) , one here in New England is called Maple Verbena - it does not flower thou.and it's like a shrub. .. what do you think about Rue? Hyssop? Feverfew?... I like the incantations - as a good Wiccan I'd have to substitute jesus with a more suitable deity thou LOL :)😉😃
