Hellebore 🌿🌸 Rabbit Hole pt. I

Since Greek Antiquity hellebore is linked to the cure of madness and insanity. In the myths it was used to cure three princesses who were struck with madness by Dionysus.

❗️do not ingest, hellebore is toxic❗️

Handmade datura flying ointment.

Day 9 of #witchmadness: What's your experience with poisonous herbs in magic?
They are integral to my path as I use flying ointments along with other methods to induce trance and altered states of consciousness. Poisonous herbs are vital allies to me. #witchcraft #poisonpath #witchsky #witch

"Sacred Plant Medicine: The Wisdom in Native American Herbalism" by Stephen H. Buhner and "Plants of the Gods: Their Sacred, Healing, and Hallucinogenic Powers" by Richard E. Schultes, Albert Hofmann & Christian Rätsch.

These two have been on my wishlist for quite some time, always on the hunt for physical books on herbs.

A white, fully bloomed Datura wrightii flower. Below it, a tightly closed bloom.

Day 1 of #witchmadness : What's your favorite herb and why?
Definitely datura. It was the plant that brought me down the poison path and connected me with the land. It also goes into my ointments and incense blends. #witchsky #witchcraft #poisonpath #greenwitch

A black seedling cup on a brown furskin, full of soil with a small green plant growing within. The plant has 6 small leaves.

I am looking forward to all the new growth this spring. Lots of exciting plants are already growing around my altar. Solanum atropurpureum. #witchsky #poisonpath #witchcraft #witch #garden #gardening #greenwitch

Here’s a little work in progress picture of an acrylic painting I’m working on. It’s got Angel Trumpets (Brugmansia) at the top with a seraphim angel and Devils Trumpet (Datura) at the bottom and a demon head with a little bottle of poison in his mouth.

Only its root is active; after having been collected, it is cut into pieces and dried in the sun. The name of potio Paulina, an elecampane wine that was prepared in Germany, derives from St. Paul's recommendation to Timothy to drink a little wine to cure a weak stomach. In Alsace, a liquid called reps is still prepared today, macerating the root in must. The name of the species, helenium, seems to derive from the Greek Helen; in fact, according to legend, the plant was born from the tears of Helen, wife of Menelaus, who was the cause of the Trojan War. In other times, it was cultivated for its medicinal root; having escaped cultivation, it can be found almost everywhere. The crops are used both for the production of liqueurs and for the pharmaceutical industry.
