Herbalism 101 - Lemongrass
Added 2022-08-08 20:08:18 +0000 UTCGood afternoon moon babes! I started this Herbalism 101 series to talk about different herbs and their properties because each one is so unique and can be used in so many different ways and workings. Last time I talked about Mugwort. I've also covered Lavender, which has amazing spiritual properties such as attraction, banishing harmful spirits, happiness, increased intelligence, purification, and aids in sleep.
Today is all about....Lemongrass!
Lemongrass is a powerful herb for removing stagnant and residual energy from you and your space. It also brings better luck, and balance and is often used for uncrossing and opening and clearing your roads. Add lemongrass to your bath/shower, tea, food, or workings. Lemongrass is associated with the Leo and Gemini signs.
Lemongrass has a bright and uplifting aroma. Its properties can give you a sense of joy, release stressful thoughts, and help to communicate more clearly. It can potentially improve dental health, boost immunity, soothe cramps, etc. Because it can help remove stagnant energy, lemongrass essential oil is often used for stress relief and balance.
Cymbopogon, more commonly known as lemongrass, can also be called barbed wire grass, silky heads and fever grass. Lemongrass is a genus of Asian, African, Australian and tropical island plants in the grass family. You can find lemongrass in Thai and Vietnamese cuisine. There are so many ways to use and integrate lemongrass into your practice.
I love lemongrass because it's such a versatile herb! How do you like to use Lemongrass?
We sell Lemongrass in the shop as well as lemongrass incense!
