Our this week is Usnea Lichen!

Also known as Old Man's Beard, Sugarded Beard, Seaweed of the Mountain, Fish Bone Beard Lichen, Tree Dandruff, Woman's Long Hair, and Herb of the North.

Known as Chan Wiziye to the Dakota, meaning 'spirit of the north wind' or 'on the north side of the tree'

Usnea has long been used as a astringent, healing herb. It is a natural antibiotic stronger than penicillin and has antifungal properties. Indigenous peoples use usnea to treat a variety of ailments: respiratory, intestinal, throat, sinus, urinary, and reproductive. It is useful for any infection inside or outside of the body. It could be fashioned into wound dressing and bandage material due to its antibacterial properties and soft texture. Usnea made for a topical treatment of boils and blisters too! The Haida would use it as a natural filter for pitch before using it as medicinal syrup.

This amazing herb is used to determine air quality; it cannot grow in areas of pollution. It represents the North direction on the medicine wheel and maintains the lungs of the earth through a sacred relationship of being the protector of trees. All human uses of this herb were seen as secondary to this divine task.

This lichen has been used by tribes of the Pacific Northwest for clothing and hair decoration. It was also used as bedding, sanitary napkins, and as a cloth to wipe away the slime that occurs when cleaning fresh salmon. Usnea was prominent in the care of children; lining cradles and cradleboards, and even as a natural diaper. It was eaten in times of famine in a dish reminiscent of noodles.

A tip for all of the outdoor types: usnea makes a wonderful natural fire starter.

Magically speaking, Usnea is associated with the planet Venus and the elements of earth and air. It is considered feminine in new age circles and masculine in indigenous medicine. Due to it's filtration abilities, it is used to gain clarity and insight. Usnea offers delicate guidance, harkening back to simpler times and thoughts while rendering us down to our purest, most innocent selves like a mother holding a walking infant's hands. It brings prosperity and abundance by connecting us to the primal gifts of the earth. A gentle cushion of protection, Usnea can be tucked into a pocket for a charm as you journey all over this world. To bring stability, peace and harmony to one's mind, boil Usnea in water and use the liquid to wash and clean the walls and floors of the bedroom space. Peaceful sleep shall await.

Fun Fact: Usnea Lichen is thought to be the first tinsel to decorate holiday trees in Europe.

Today's Medicine Monday is Juniper

Known as Sammapo to the Shoshone, P**l to the Washo, and Wapi to the Paiute.

Juniper has been used in a protective, cleansing format by indigenous tribes all across turtle island.

It is a traditional bathing solution and is inhaled during sweatbaths. Many tribes would place boughs of juniper on top of a someone laying down during a healing steam and create a tea from the leaves in combination to treat rheumatism. The Salish used juniper to banish evil spirits and protect themselves from witchcraft. The Pueblos used juniper to counteract ghost sickness, caused by handling the remains of the dead. The Dakota, Cheyenne, and Pawnee hung juniper boughs on their tepees and burnt them in campfires to protect their homes from storms. Many tribal hunters carried sprigs of juniper as a protective charm. The branches could be rubbed on their bodies to keep them safe from grizzly bears, monsters, and bad luck.
Juniper is frequently included in medicine bundles.

Juniper berries are very nutritous and were a staple in many tribal diets. Juniper ash is consumed as a source of calcium by the Navajo.
Stomach aches and colds could be treated with a tea made from juniper twigs. The leaves can be dried and brewed into a tea to treat back pain. The berries are used as a diuretic and to stop bleeding. Combining the two forms in a poltice could be used to treat aches and sores. The Blackfoot use a decoction of the berries to treat venereal disease and lung ailments. Woodland Cree tribes smoke the berries to treat athsma. Cupfuls of juniper tea were used as birth control.

Tribes used the berries as beads; they would place them at an ant hill and wait until the creatures would consume the flesh of the berry, creating a natural hole. A green dye can be created from juniper to colour cornhusk bags. The berries, bark, and needles can be muddled to create a brown dye. Knots of juniper branches were used as torches to light ceremonial dancing grounds. This plant was laid around the home to keep out rodents and snakes. Many tribes would use the berries to flavor wild duck, goose, quail, rabbit, and venison. Some tribes use juniper as a symbol of their family clans.

Magically speaking, Juniper is associated with the sun or mars and the element of fire. It is considered masculine and represents cleansing, purification, healing, and protection. It can guard against bad vibes and breaks hexes and curses. This plant is used to get back stolen property and is a great deterrent to theft in general. Juniper is a great herb for banishing negative energy. Carrying obsidian and juniper berries enhances your luck.

Fun fact: Juniper was used by the ancient egyptians for embalming.
