I am so obsessed with this oil I made a couple of months ago that I haven’t wanted to share it with many people - but now the time has come!
Formula: Parsley, Mugwort, Solomons Seal, Wild Yam
I do not make many oils - tinctures are my craft. HOWEVER, I thought about this oil for months before I began to make it. I grew, harvested, and dried the parsley and the mugwort. I spent many many many mornings with these plants. I watered them, tasted them, spoke to them - I love them. I got to put a lot of thought into how I was going to make this oil and what intentions I wanted to put into it.
I made this oil with the intention of healing & strengthening the womb and have since found that it nourishes muscles, tendons, and tissues throughout my entire body.
Mugwort has a long history of a relationship with women - healing, strengthening, protecting our womb. Sinking deep within, mugwort moves blood out of and into areas- flushing away stagnation, toxins, waste and bringing in fresh, nutrient rich blood to nourish us from the inside out. Parsley works well with mugwort in this way, stimulating the uterus or whichever tissue it is you’re working with. Wild yam is known for many things, among them being that it works to reduce muscle contractions - I was thinking of painful moon cycles and how this could bring relief, especially when we are already moving so much blood! (Blood stagnation contributes greatly to painful cycles and painful tissue states)
Solomons Seal is an herb that deserves the utmost respect. I think they all deserve reverence but Solomon’s seal truly is something special and we need not over consume and disrespect this plant. Try and grow it yourself in a well shaded area of your yard! This root strengthens our muscles & tendons - just to name one of the many gifts that it gives us. My intention is to nourish and strengthen the tissues throughout my entire body, especially my womb and my back.
For the women - I believe this oil is strengthening my uterus which is in turn giving me healthier moon cycles. Our cycles have so much to do with our hormones and I believe this process is helping me to find a range of hormonal activity that is improving my skin and my mental health. This oil has changed my moon cycles, making them quite lovely! (That along with cutting out processed sugars 2 weeks before my cycle).
Of course, each of these herbs offer many more benefits than the ones I have mentioned. As always, I encourage you to do your own research and always ask questions!
