For thousands of years women gathered, shared their dreams, secrets and visions. They were the center and source of medicine and healing for their communities. Together, they gathered herbs according to the moon cycle to develop powerful herbal formulas. Through an intuitive communication with the plants, women learned the healing powers of the plant allies. Their wisdom developed over countless years as remedies were tried, proved and passed on.
They understood the cycles, the seasons, the moon, the sun, the starts, the ebb and flow of the universe in connection with the natural rhythms of their bodies.
This healing art through plants it’s rooted in us - women, it’s our intrinsic connection with the earth. It remind us that we are nature, that healing, belonging, care, nurture, love can be found every time we connect with this green allies.
As Rosemary Gladstar says it so wisely “(…)the knowledge of plants is an old knowledge and easily accessible, some women simply “remember” how to find it buried in the fertile soil of their hearts.”
The Woman’s herbal was the first edition of a concretion between Olivia, Cá and me, together with all the amazing women that join us, allowing this memory to flourish back again. Were we ritualized, prepared, gather, and create our own herbal remedies, for our bodies and spirit.
What a blessing water the soil of ancient healing traditions together.
