Poison Prescriptions: Power Plant Medicine, Magic & Ritual

Gorgeously illustrated grimoire of the witching herbs (including henbane, datura and belladonna) that calls for these to be re-incorporated into modern herbal medicine and contemporary magic. Foreword by Neneh Cherry. This is a gloriously illustrated guide to the witching herbs – the notorious psychedelic plants such as henbane, datura and belladonna. It is a witchy grimoire to treasure, as well as a practical guide to plant magic, medicine and ritual. The book urges the resurrection of the ancient tradition of using of these plants in medicine – a tradition that was suppressed along with other female-dominated herbal practices. Although these plants are toxic, the suggestions in this book are safe to follow, as the Seed Sistas work with them as microdoses or purely ritually. It is the Seed Sistas’ experience that even these “”safe”” practices will change profoundly consciousness and usher in wellbeing and healing. The book contains: – Part One: Power Plants, Poisons, Altered States and Witchcraft: an exploration of the use of altered states of consciousness in magical practice and personal development. – Part Two: Connecting to the Witching Herbs: in-depth profiles of henbane, datura and belladonna, including practical activities from meditations to folklore writing to wreath and beer making. – Part Three: The Flying Ointment: includes step-by-step instructions to creating the powerful witches’ Flying Ointment and using it in ritual, sex magic, lucid dreaming and elsewhere. – ASIN: 1786787148 | ISBN13: 9781786787149 | ISBN-13: 978-1786787149
