Wolfsbane blooms and flowers in a deep purplish-blue, supported by rich green stalks standing 2-4 feet tall. This plant grows throughout most of Europe and Asia, usually taking root in moist pastures and mountainous areas. Wolfsbane, or Aconitum napellus, is a tuberous-rooted perennial belonging to the Ranunculaceae family or buttercup family. To start the year off strong, I wanted to begin with one of the most deadly plants still used today. In this blog, we will be discovering the lively and dangerous p ersonalities of each plant along the poisonous path. Not to mention the ceremonial and spiritual uses acclaimed to these powerful herbs. One might first become alarmed by the use of poisonous plants within medicine, but the fact is that plants of poisonous property can heal and relieve conditions where other herbs fall short. But for those who are willing to listen, and for those who are willing to grow, finding yourself as an herbalist is a matter of letting these plants show you the way. N o one can know all that the plant kingdom has to offer us, and at times it can seem easy to get misled or lost in it all. Different plants call out to different healers, whether that be based on their nationality, heritage, ethnicity, education, or current need. Where this path might lead you, no one can say. It's up to us to follow the healer's path into the wealth of preexisting plans laid out for us by the plants we are surrounded by. It is up to us, the mammal with the gift of advanced imagination, to make the connections between substance and action. This relationship transcends basic symbiotic relationships and embodies nature as an intelligent consciousness.
Every living species and every diseased creature can benefit from the use of herbs. Even though herbs are thought of as more of a traditional medicine by western standards, p lants have always been the healers of this world.
