Bane Folk Flower Essences.

“Flower essences embody a living tradition of magical herbalism. In use since the early 1900s, flower essences are not tinctures but diluted cold water infusions of the fresh flowers which are harvested in a mindful ceremony and prayed over. Developed by Doctor Edward Bach in the early 1900s, they are meant to be ingested in homeopathic amounts to help with emotional pain such as fear, uncertainty, loneliness, oversensitivity, burnout, sadness, and trauma. Flower essences made from poisonous plants are safe to ingest and can be used for spiritual cleansing, magical rituals, anointing, and plant spirit communion.

Ask the plant spirits for aid and guidance through rough times. Don’t forget to leave an offering to the plants after they have helped you and the circle of giving is complete. Fitting offerings include incense, honey, wine, art, music, or growing them in your garden.”
