Herb Magick

Many people struggle for a good working definition Herb Magick, and not many people can put solid words into describing why and how it works. It can be defined simply— it’s the power that each herb has and the benefits that we get from using it. How many times have you made yourself a cup of chamomile or mint tea when you are feeling stressed? Or taken an herbal supplement such as Echinacea to boost you immune system during cold and flu season? Herb Magick isn’t all that complicated, it’s so simple that it is practiced by some people who don’t even realize they are doing it. Many people don’t understand why herbs give us the benefits that they do, people just know they work. These powers and benefits are the simple definition of Herb Magick.

For centuries, past civilizations have practiced Herb Magick for numerous reasons, and although some reasons may have changed, we still use the powers of herbs today. Many of these reasons are not centered around herbal supplements for good health, however, although maintaining good health is the most common reason that herbs are used today. Other ways of practicing herb magic range from creating charms and spells for prosperity or love for instance, or making herbal sachets for luck or for keeping insects or rodents away. Herbs can be used in incense, or used to imprint candles with. At Amity’s Alchemy, we use the natural powers of herbs to create our herbal bath teas, and we also use them to make our herbal dream pillows.

Herbal bath tonics have been used for centuries. Here at Amity’s Alchemy we have formulated several herbal combinations that make up our line of herbal bath teas. Using blends containing half a dozen magical herbs, we offer herbal baths to soothe muscle soreness, to rejuvenate, to relax and stress down, and to help get a restful night’s sleep, among other helpful results.

Dream pillows utilize Herb Magick by opening up communication with the sleeping mind, and helping one to remember dreams, nightmares and bad dreams to be banished, and to relax the mind to obtain a good night’s sleep. Certain herbs have better suited powers for this use. Mugwart, for example, is excellent for making dreams more vivid and prophetic. Lavender will help bring relaxation. A combination of mullein and hyacinth essential oil help to stop bad dreams. The magick of herbs becomes more powerful when they are used in combination with other herbs that have similar benefits. We’ve formulated our herbal blends with corresponding herbal essential oils to increase the herbal blends potency using the sense of smell. Our herbal blends are also made stronger by using color correspondences, which tap into visual senses and make our herbal blends the best available.

At Amity’s Alchemy we know the magic of herbs and the benefits we get from using them. We are proud to pass along our knowledge of the Old Ways of using herbs in many benefial ways. Here, Herb Magick is not just a belief, it is a knowledge.
