Preparing

Herbal Medicines - Update – from a friend

" So many

people pick at the wrong times and devastate the crop. Sometimes, when I go harvesting in some popular

places, I see that people have torn out the plant -- root and all and stepping

on live plants trying to get a " better " one, or what ever.

This

saddens me greatly. I'm also aware that

many do not offer something of themselves in return (to the 'GrandMother

Plant') in a prayer of thanks for taking of a life. Of course, later on when something goes wrong in their life, they

wonder why. Duh-hh!!

You don't

have to make it a " big " ceremony.

One should be discreet about these things -- you don't have to be a

" Medicine Man/Woman " to do this.

Don't

be phony, but honest in your gratitude.

One can offer the plant -- what we as Native American Indians offer -- a

small pinch of tobacco; one can offer what ever you have, i.e., water, some

hair cut from your 'locks' or what is collected on your comb/brush -- (given

that it's organic and not permed or colored).

 

The

best that I recommend is the traditional gift mentioned earlier, since going on

a harvest is usually a planned thing, be prepared -- take only what you

" need " .

AND

LEAVE THE PLACE AS IF YOU HAD NEVER BEEN THERE!! "
