How a Green Witch Profiles Herbs || My Materia Medica Entries

Okay first I would like to get ahead of this by saying, yes, one of my drawings is missing a finger and you know that may or may not have been on purpose… who’s to know.. But you know what - not everybody has five fingers and that’s totally cool so not every drawing needs five fingers either man. Oh well, anyways, I hope you all enjoy the video!

A good resource that I use is Scott Cunningham's Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs. It is a pretty thorough book with properties of the herb, the element, planet, deities it is associated with, and gender, along with folk names and magical and ritual uses. It should by no means be your only reference, but it's a good book with a lot of detail and an extensive bibliography

[@TheGreenWitch]

I use this as well and find it to be a good resource! But I completely agree that it's important to use many more references before coming to a final conclusion

I recently discovered your channel and I am absolutely grateful for all your efforts. Your videos are so informative and esthetically pleasing. One thing I noticed is how much you apologize. It makes me sad that anyone has made you feel you needed to have such an apologetic nature. While it shows your kindness, I wish you would embrace your beauty and power. Let go of the need to apologize to anyone, who's negatively critical & not willing to see your greatness. In no way is this more criticism, just an urging for you to be unapologetically you! You want to talk with your hands? Do it. They are lovely and create magic. In any event, thank you! I appreciate you!

[@TheGreenWitch]

Thank you, I very much appreciate your kindness and I will keep that with me

@@TheGreenWitch i also LOOOOOOVE expressive hands! there is such liveliness in it...have you seen the movie "Joy"...there its said something along the lines that Joys brilliant way of expressing through her hands was the secret to her success in video. but i get it...the selfcritical voices and trying to take the risk of getting hurt by them by anticipating. i´m guilty of that. :/ takes one to know one... :´D but yes, i agree with amber, you are so gorgous, you radiate this calm and beautiful energy in your videos, you are absolutly perfect looking. you voice is so dreamy and from your finger braces to your editing you are really making great videos, esthetically and information wise. It´s a challenge in this critical patriarchal world, to come into selflove and power, and recording yourself and watching it 100 times while cutting sure does put the spotlight on all our insecurities, doesnt it? long story short: you are great! please use your hands!!! they are absolutly gorgeous (and i´m from europe, where using superlatives is NOT A STANDARD ;) i wish you all the best!

[@BethDoublekickChick]

This makes me sad, and a little cranky too. So much content is wasted on apologising, covering all the trolls and nitpickers past and future comments. I see it on EVERY channel and it's killing the experience. More compliments! Less complaints!

[@annafantasia]

@@BethDoublekickChick I understand what you're saying, but it's a teensy bit entitled and self-centered -- our experience as viewers matters, but also.... it kinda doesn't haha. We're free to move on. It would just be magical to see this lovely human feel a little less like she HAS to apologize. It's liberating to break that habit!

[@justcallmeteacup4711]

One thing I've noticed when I get to your channel and also this side of KZbin in general (horticulture, foraging, botany, herbalism, witchcraft) is that everyone is so kind and willing to share their craft with others. It is sometimes so hard to find channels like this, a kind community and a genuine desire to spread the knowledge, when it comes to other skills 💕

[@BethDoublekickChick]

As a horticulturist, I feel this video is very professional in detail. You truly have a gift in botany. Some aspiring witches could find this too technical but not to worry, there's plenty of us botanical needs out here that will thoroughly enjoy your beautifully delivered information. Well done gorgeous soul 💜🌺🍀🌱

[@elizagrey7243]

Hey Annie! I'm a RN and I just found you, so I've been binge watching your videos! I love that you acknowledge the more modern "medical" side of things.

Hola mi amiga. I finally came across your video. I think I was drawn to it. I have been increasingly drawn to this topic and I think that has grown since I became aware of my ancestors and spirit guides. Thank you for sharing. ❤ blessings

[@camilla79]

This is a lot of work, and I don't think I have cultivated enough persistence to study hebrs in such a detailed manner! 😂 When I study herbs I take the herb, I meditate with it, if it's safe i taste it, i smell it, and I meditate with the sensations the herb is giving me. In the magical field I follow more the energies than anything else. I follow the energies with the eyes closed, as if i felt the herb for the first time. I also understood a lot of thing on how my energy works with the herbs. One day I will study every medicinal property and I will have a proper herbarium! I will fight the laziness💪 but I'll keep the meditation method too, it's really beautiful

[@janeenbreyman212]

I would add companion planting and preservation under cultivating.

[@monicaluketich3106]

I'm working on a book of the native wildflowers and plants in my area of Texas. Since I can't draw as well as you, I take photographs of each plant - usually 3. One is the entire plant or at least a large portion; one are the leaves and their arrangements, and last, the flower if it is a wildflower. I just became a Master Gardener and wanted my farm to be a place of native wildflowers. I also include when and where it blooms. Llove the list of topics you cover for each herb - I also grow (or try to grow) herbs and will probably do those as a separate book for my ease of use. Thank you for a beautiful lesson.

[@dobyk5338]

I came to the channel because I wanted inspiration for playing my own Green Witch character in a tabletop game. I find all of this pleasantly soothing and even educational

[@caydancebloom]

thank you for this video. I like words too ... I like "geeking out" about the information available at our fingertips about pretty much anything we want to learn.

[@dorothysay8327]

Hello dearie - just a couple comments The word you’re seeking 3/4 of the way through, instead of ‘contradictions ,’ is ‘counter indications,’ or ‘contraindication’. If you look up the distinctions you’ll see why 😍. Can’t wait to download this great material !

[@kitdubhran2968]

It’s the “opposite” of indications. Indications are when to use a medicine. Contraindications are when NOT to use it. I thought the same thing. 😂 I work in pharmacy, so I hear it a lot. So I was like, wait, what?

[@rogermarks1110]

As humans we are enchanters of the world whether we realize it or not, imbuing everything we encounter with meaning good or bad. Some of us try to make a conscious effort of this (practitioners of any form of occult work especially though not exclusively) but it comes naturally to us all for better or worse. I just want to say I really appreciate the care you put into all your work which is really the essence of The Work. It's plain to see you are both a natural and conscious enchanter and I'm grateful that you choose to share this with people. It's not easy when you cultivate a magical or miraculous world view only to have someone sigh it off like another mundane monday. Have a good one! (and thanks!)

As an aspiring herbalist myself this is such a great idea! I've been having trouble trying to retain all the medicinal properties from multiple different sources, either by studying herbs for specific body systems or studying ailments and the herbs to best match with them. But organizing information by just the herb itself and also how beautifully you outline and go into depth with each one is such a perfect blend of organizing medical uses and spiritual practice! thanks for the awesome video can't wait to start my own herbal journal!

I know you are unlikely to see this Annie as it is an 'older' video but i wanted to say thank you so so much. I live in Australia and I often find connecting with Sabbats very difficult because so many plants and correspondences are Northern based and so I often feel disingenuous, or perhaps that I'm not including more local elements to complement the others and this video has given me a much better idea of where to start in deep diving into my local plants and what might be useful to include. You have inspired me greatly to not be afraid any longer and I can't thank you enough!

Even if she does several small releases of a few herbs at a time- I do think she has the knowledge to share, and would be really successful doing a book series.

I think the layout of the information was well organized, having a section that includes a specific "indication of use" and the "precautions contradictions and cross-effects" seems like it means looking at the plant as both good and bad.

It is only the dose which makes a thing poison" ~Paracelsus Annie, you have a very scientific approach to your practice

I hope to eventually be this organized in my practice! This was such a thorough walk-through. I know you posted this 4 years ago now, but it has helped me today. So I thank you! Edit now that I've finished the video: I really appreciate you going more into detail for the cultivation, harvesting and preparation sections. I am slowly adding more to my garden, as I also value sourcing plants and produce that are close to me. I also have a small flock of chickens - I have one blue layer, one green layer and four brown layers. They're my special little garden babies 💚 I am in the process of starting an Apothecary and Art Shop (online and pop-up stands at local markets), though I still need more experience before dabbling in ingestible products. I'll mostly be starting out with jar spells, rune stones and maybe some smudging bundles - I'll be sourcing everything either from my garden or foraging in town. I hold both science and spirituality in high regard, so I'm really happy that you covered so much on medicinal purposes! I already dabble in kitchen magic for myself, but I only use ingredients that are commonly known to be safe for consumption (for example, rosemary or lemon balm). This video gave me so many ideas, and more things to explore. I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos! I definitely want to check out any recent stuff you've posted.

This is amazing! I’m a gardener and I’ve started turning to “green witch” sources for herb’s because I feel the info is very limited. My notes on my garden are no where as well organized as as this I’m definitely using some of of your suggestions. A couple recommendations I have to add is companion plants for growing. And if you will let the plant go to see add when it blooms and what pollinators and beneficial insects it attracts. I try to make sure I have flowers for pollinators for as much of the growing season as possible. So I might adjust how many of a certain plant I’m growing as a “sacrifice” to the pollinators to keep them around and healthy all season long.

[@evelynatcraneshearth]

Yeah, I'd say your video here is one of the first times I've seen this topic done *well* on YT. I like how you broke everything down.

[@arjantjeee]

This was so informative. I've recently started herbalism in a more professional setting in a very old local apothecary. Advising people what to take and what not, selling supplements and herbal medicine. I also grow a lot of indoor plants which I keep for ornamental reasons, but I've been dealing with pests. Keeping plants indoors really made me understand what aspects are important and what certain plants need. If you want to grow plants for consumption, it's best to use natural pesticides. Indoors I use neemoil but in the garden I love using Nettle water. In Europe we have sting nettles, which you can let rot in a bucket of water. This solution is perfect to ward off any insects. Whereas a hydroperoxide and neemoil are great as an antifungal solution. I recently found your channel and I really adore your videos and your style.

I have been DYING for things like this! I’m so glad I am not the only one to put this much effort into my grimoire and herb studies. I’ve been a witch for over a decade now and I really appreciate you showing me I’m not crazy or OCD. I see so many people rattle off some crazy things about herbs and I don’t feel qualified to ever correct someone (we are always learning) but I am very cautious about uses I add for myself. I’m really only comfortable now with about 17 herbs from memory but I work nearly every few days on new ones and at least one more source. I’m still learning on what I consider the most trust worthy sites but I have some favorite books. Can you recommend one or two of your favorite web sources to me?

[@caitlinlittle9480]

[@milesbarnes6777]

Half a decade here. Documenting the latin binomial and family has helped me so much, as my younger sister has suddenly been found to be allergic to many cooking herbs and powders. I make my own anti-inflammatory medication because I have no herbal allergies, my body only needs small doses, and there’s a family history of acetaminophen dependence. I find that herbs work extremely well for me so far (everyone out there, PLEASE list the medicinal herbs you use - with dosage and preparation - to any doctor like you would medications), and I now completely avoid any potential chance of liver damage and addiction. I know that’s not possible for everyone. I’ve become friends with a certified reiki practitioner that focuses on mental and spiritual health, and we’re found that I’m very receptive to energy (as I hypothesized soon after starting my journey from monotheism to shintoism). It’s allowed me to reflect on how I behave when I’m in a group, and I also now understand why certain things likely occurred during my youth and teenage years. Monotheistic religions never led me to these conclusions and resulting clarity.

[@chantalduplessis5149]

Something I think would be very beneficial for you to add as a herbalist would be the "phytochemicals" in a herb. In some cases these phytochemicals provide some of the medicinal properties of a particular herb. As an example the antimicrobial property in tea tree has roots to phytochemical tannins. This is helpful as if you are reviewing another herb and notice some similiar phytochemicals you will immediately have an idea of the properties of that other herb. Of course every plant has different concentrations of this depending on even its growth phase but it helps support a general idea.

[@hollystevenson7470]

This video is amazing! Your book has depth, detail and beauty. All important. Two things I would add. One is an actual printed photograph of the herb for each one. And two is a small section at the bottom for magically how the herb reacts to you. For example mugwort is used to clear out negative energy from homes but I find it works best for me for sleep spells for a deep dreamless refreshing sleep. So I might use sage for clearing. That doesn't mean mugwort doesn't clear only that the herb speaks to me differently. You might find as you work you can get more out of one cough remedy over another despite both being equal. There is a personal relationship with each herb often overlooked. Love your videos!

I would love to read a book on herbs written by you! You really include so much interesting and important information and I love it! 😍

Just finished making an herbal journal to fill out. This video came at such a good timing.

You inspired me to make a cup of tulsi tea with honey, which I quickly researched and found out is anti-anxiety. Your videos are very beautiful, like yourself, and are in no way strange or disconnected. Have a wonderful evening.

Thank you so much for this video ❤ I love that you give to the world what you wish to see in it. 😊

I like you like this better, not talking about the hair. You just seem in a more relaxed and free state. I enjoy when u act like yourself. Now a days you seem tense and really self conscious. Don't let the haters make u be unauthentic.

Thank you so much for your time and energy in making this video, I am very grateful for it. It has given me a wonderful, comprehensive starting point for my herbal journal. Thanks and blessings to you.

Thanks so much for sharing. I definitely have wished for a video like this. I've done videos vaguely similar as a beginner but as an overview of specific herbs/plants. I am slowly studying to be an herbalist as well. I started my own materia medica/herbal grimoire and hearing that certain sections take up pages makes me feel better honestly. This is everything I include I just have one or two more

Thank you so much for this. I too needed this video. Organizing my research felt daunting, but now I feel like I have a solid plan!

@17:50... Not bizarre at all. A fascinating look into your knowledge and craft. I found it very informative and interesting. The music and setting is quite soothing as is your tone when you speak. I love the look of the lighting and greenery with the earthy materials around it. You have a real classic cottage style which I enjoy very much. The information you've explained is wonderfully done. Thank you for sharing. I look forward to more. :-)

I’m obsessed with Tulsi basil! I feed it to my livestock to keep them healthy.

I wish I had your voice it's so calming for me!♡

I think your words are beautiful in every video, but I really love how this one is not scripted. It feels much more authentic, and I feel more relaxed watching. Good job ^_^
