PLANTS + PLANETS: A Guide to Astro-herbalism
Welcome to the realm of Astroherbalism, where the mystical and medicinal properties of plants intertwine with the celestial influences of the planets. This guide is an opportunity to deepen your relationship with the planets and zodiac signs, experiencing them through their connection with the natural world. Human beings have been tracking the planets for thousands of years, since time immemorial; as we ourselves are cosmic players in this planetary makeup. The floral and fungal world is much older than humans; by attuning to their energies we can engage in deep listening, self-discovery and mind-body alignment, aided by the ancient wisdom and healing properties they offer.
Astroherbalism is a holistic perspective that blends astrology and herbalism, unveiling the interconnection between magical plants, potent herbs and their zodiacal and planetary partners. We can approach studying these concepts as a living language – art and science as one. To truly get the most out of this modality, you are encouraged to balance your logical mind and intuitive instincts. This methodology functions under the principle of “as above, so below,” a belief that the macrocosm mirrors the microcosm.
This is an introduction to our newly released Botanicals Collection guide Plants + Planets: A Guide to Astro-herbalism. If you would like to delve deeper, this digital guide uncovers the healing properties of 36 potent plants and herbs paired with planetary rituals to support you in integrating and applying their ancient wisdom to your practice.
"The human body is a microcosm, or a little world, and it is governed by the same laws as the macrocosm, or the great world. By observing and understanding the movements of the stars and planets, we can gain insight into the workings of the human body and use this knowledge to heal and restore balance" - Paracelsus
