I picked up two new books today! This one came out with @inner_traditions a month or two before mine did. It is a new edition, an annotated translation of a work by Paul Sédir (Yvon Le Loup) who was an influential part of the French occult revival. The book was originally published on 1902. The book covers some fascinating topics including the esoteric origin of plants, astrological and zodiac correspondences (providing a much more detailed explanation of this than other sources/demonstrating how to make your own determinations, Paracelsus physiology, occult medicine, herbs A-Z and he even discusses the ingredients of the witches’ ointment. I haven’t read this from to back yet but I am very excited to! #Occultbotany #yvonleloup #occultherbalism #ethnobotany #plantspiritmedicine #hermeticherbalism #esotericherbalism #occultbooks #westernesoterictraditions #magicalherbalism #magickalherbalism (at Seven Stars - crystals and books) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVUIE-Prv5-/?utm_medium=tumblr

If you have read my Poisoner’s Pocket Guide series you will already be familiar with the way that alchemical concepts are connected to herbal preparations . Through alchemical processes we come to better understand the inner workings of our herbal preparations. The connection between Nigredo(Saturn), Albedo (Venus) and rubedo (Mercury) and Baneful Herb lore is a theme throughout the series. I am excited to be delving more deeply into spagyric alchemy and incorporating it into my baneful preparations .

My upcoming Poison Path Formulary workshop has just 10 spots left! This is an intermediate level class which will focus on understanding the chemistry of plants in the Solanaceae family. We will discuss the tropane alkaloids, and their physiological effects. This two-part live course will take place on Zoom. Part one will profile specific plants within the nightshade family , looking at their chemistry, actions and magical applications. Part two we will learn extraction processes, formulation ,action and safety practices. We will also discuss rules for dosing and which herbs are best suited to specific preparations. After this workshop students will have a proficient understanding of how to incorporate baneful herbs into ones practice using techniques rooted in plant alchemy and traditional herbalism.
