A baneful herb that is not necessarily deadly. Bittersweet Nightshade- Solanum dulcamara. Aka felonwort or felonwood Grows in woodlands, hedge banks and marshes, along fences and in bushes. (Wherever it wants really) it has a liminal “in between” nature that gives it a mercurial element as far as facilitation shamanic travel and spirit communication. This mercurial element is blended with its Saturnian properties. It is a five petaled “gateway” herb like the other nightshades. Dulce means sweet and amara means bitter “dulcamara” refers to the bitter and sweet taste of the berries. Used to protect flocks from the eyelid eye, to protect the home from lightning and to keep children safe. I personally feel this plant has a connection to the Persephone/Kore mythos in its nature. I fill a dish with the ripe red berries and pomegranate seeds in offering to the goddess at Samhain. Like many of the common nightshades bittersweet nightshade can be used I. Weather magic, which we see in its use against lightning. There has been debate over the years to the toxicity and psycho activity of this plant. While it does contain selteroidal alkaloids such as solanine it does not contain the key tropane alkaloids atropine or scopolamine. This is by no means exhaustive.

Not to be confused with Deadly Nightshade/ Belladona... This plant was called the Woody Nightshade by the old herbalists to distinguish it from the Deadly Nightshade. Its generic name Solanum is derived from Solor (I ease), and testifies to the medicinal power of this group of plants. The second name, Dulcamara, used to be more correctly written in the Middle Ages, Amaradulcis, signifying literally 'bittersweet,' the common country name of the plant, given to it in reference to the fact that the root and stem, if chewed, taste first bitter and then sweet. Another old name is Felonwood, probably a corruption of Felonwort, the plant for felons - felon being an old name for whitlow. We are told by an old writer that: 'the Berries of Bittersweet stamped withrusty Bacon, applied to the Joynts of the Finger that is troubled with a Felon hath been found by divers country people who are most subject thereto to be very successful for the curing of the same.' In the days of belief in witchcraft, shepherds used to hang it as a charm round the necks of those of their beasts whom they suspected to be under the evil eye. The older physicians valued Bittersweet highly and applied it to many purposes in medicine and surgery, for which it is no longer used. It was in great repute as far back as the time of Theophrastus, and we know of it being in use in this country in the thirteenth century. Gerard says of it: 'The juice is good for those that have fallen from high places, and have been thereby bruised or beaten, for it is thought to dissolve blood congealed or cluttered anywhere in the intrals and to heale the hurt places.' Boerhaave, the celebrated Dutch physician, considered the young shoots superior to Sarsaparilla as a restorative, and Linnaeus, who at first had an aversion to the plant, later spoke of it in the highest terms as a remedy for rheumatism, fever and inflammatory diseases of all kinds. There are few complaints for which it has not been at some time recommended. #solanumdulcamara #woodynightshade #bittersweetnightshade #felonwood #violetbloom (at Carroll, Maryland)
