"The Earth has music for those who listen."
- Shakespeare
The word herb comes from the old Sanskrit 'bharb,' meaning to eat, which later became 'herba' in Latin, meaning grass or fodder.
Herbs are distinguishable from other plants because the stem doesnt become woody.
Herbs and plants have a huge part to play in magick-making. Some can be burned as part of a spell and there are those that can be sprinkled in the soothing waters of a ritual bath.
