Herbal Properties

When just starting out with herbs, one often confusing factor– in my experience– is finding the correct information about the uses for herbs, or their properties. I’ve found so much conflicting information online, so would highly recommend getting a comprehensive herbal guide. If you want a magical herbal, Scott Cunningham is a good author to start with, and while his work is older, it’s still used by Pagans because it is one of, if not the, best. Another good one for both magical and mundane, is Llewellyn’s Herbal Almanac. Other than than, look for a good herbal that gives the information you need. If you’ll be gathering herbs yourself, you’ll need a guide that gives easy identification, as well as proper gathering and storage techniques. If you’re going to be doing a specific type of herbalism– let’s say just working with herbs for oils– look for a tailored text for that. I haven’t found onego to guide for herbs, and since I work with a variety of herbs in a plethora of ways– I have an entire seven-foot-tall bookshelf, that’s more than half dedicated to herbs.
