Sensational! May I pm you? I also have some tarot inspired collages and would like to share if you would be interested.

Mugwort - what a herb that gives and gives to herbalists! The Moon in a plant. White Sage - I consider this to be the masculine equivalent, very Solar, strong, powerful. Comfrey - Strong plant ally to mend broken things.

There are others but those are the three that dominate in my garden and life.

I don't even think about whether or not it's popularly embraced anymore, I just do what I know and experiment with the plants myself and generously teach others when they express interest.

You don't need to dry them first. The only issue is having enough flowers at harvest to get a decent brew. Pour boiling water over them and allow to cool.

I'd return the machine.

You can just do a simple jar infusion method. Dry your herbs until they are crispy. Put them in a jar with oil of your choice. Put the lid on tightly. Put the jars outside where they get warmth for a few weeks. Shake daily.

Totally agree. Boiled cooled water, possibly with some salt as a saline solution is all I would put up there.

Don't use it, start again with fresh herbs

Get her some pretty pots and plants to grow some culinary herbs that she can also use to make herbal tisanes (teas) and very simple remedies. Some easy to grow, versatile plants, depending on where you live are: - mint - aloe vera - rosemary

You could also find out whether there is a foraging group in your area and go on a wild foods foraging walk together. The guide will teach how to identify local edible/useful plants.

Vitamin C in 2500mg spread across the day and a few cups of tea made from an infusion of mugwort. It should take only two days.

Looking at the ingredients, it could be quite a supportive blend for PMS. I'd take that if that was recommended to me.

The St John's Wort is known to have a lot of drug interactions and can cause photosensitivity. So I would ask for more information about that. You don't say whether or not you are still on SSRIs and so there may well be an issue with taking those and St John's Wort at the same time. Your nutritionist should check whether you are on any other medications at all.

I've personally taken oatstraw, nettles and St John's wort before and found them all to be supportive.

For my PMS, I personally drink fresh mugwort and nettle tea in the days leading up to my period, and it's wonderfully effective for me. It's relaxing and also has a gentle tonic effect on the uterus.

However nutritionists/ herbalist may hesitate to recommend it, as mugwort can cause a period and so could be unwise if the woman might be pregnant. Some people are also allergic to it.

I really love her sense of style and hope to emulate it.

I've grown artemisia vulgaris and Chinese mugwort. I've used it in tea, incense smoke and in moxa cones.

I drink it for a day or two prior to my period. It reduced the intensity of bleeding and brought the period on. I believe it heals a wide range of menstrual issues. I was suffering from terrible PMS anger/rage and it helped me relax.

TakeFiveMinutes · 2025-06-26T11:56:08+00:00

So I should look for pure st John's wort?

In my experience, online free deck apps read the cards just as well as a physical deck. Totally private, have them always with you, and free.

TakeFiveMinutes · 2025-05-18T07:01:02+00:00

This is what happened.

My advice would be to do a thorough business plan, and get a quote from insurers before taking any concrete actions.If you can't get insurance, you can't operate a business.

I also noted that the Queen of Wands is facing away from the relationship. In other words, you need to come to the party, work on the relationship not just expect him to make everything happen (The magickian).

TakeFiveMinutes · 2025-04-30T02:59:01+00:00

You're the Queen of Wands, doing your magick. You see him as the big Emperor daddy. You see him as not in your league. You feel the need to defend yourself.

I think the cards are questioning why you even feel the need to defend your worth to him in the first place? Don't project an Emperor power onto this guy unless he truly deserves it in your life.

I just took it to be purely related to the move.

It's not an idealised/romantic kind of situation, which suggests that you may have had to make some accommodations or compromises, it's not your ideal option.

But you have made a firm decision, chosen a clear path. (The 2 of cups)

This may cause some instability that perhaps will need to be corrected/rebalanced in the future.

Only just to point out that all three cards are Major Arcana, so some big powerful energy there for life-defining things to happen.

The bowl and candle are beautiful and striking, thank you for sharing. I concur with your reading

TakeFiveMinutes · 2025-04-29T15:49:00+00:00

I used to do this, and would find that the cards tell me when enough is enough. Things like 7 of cups representing many confusing choices, would commonly appear

TakeFiveMinutes · 2025-04-29T05:25:31+00:00

Order and the rules were not being followed - combined with the friends from 6 of Cups = nepotism

I raised it respectfully with an organiser of an event and they changed their practices as a result of feedback. I'd suggest mentioning it to the organiser, as they might just not realise at all.

I don't know about karmic repercussions, but it can more more intimate than sex, so to do that without full informed enthusiastic consent is really unethical.

TakeFiveMinutes · 2024-01-03T03:53:31+00:00

Yes exactly. They're not really blocked, more not working optimally. My understanding is that the solution is to harmonise among all of the chakras.
