Plant medicine is as old as human civilization itself and has served to heal, enlighten, and protect for millennia. In this new entry into the popular 1001 series of magical reference, expert author Cassandra Eason weaves ancient lore and contemporary research into a usable, fascinating guide to herbal healing. Each of these 1001 entries lists a plant, its physical properties, and its mythological associations, then offers a practical way to use it: as a tea, an essential oil, an amulet or talisman, or in a ritual bath. Gorgeous illustrations illuminate the many ways nature manifests its magic in the physical world. This is an essential reference for anyone who would like to understand correspondences and healing properties of any of this massive catalog of flora.
