ancient herbal healing, magic and traditions
There have been many uses for various herbs in the ancient Celtic pagan traditions, as well as the more modern Wicca, and even the Native American cultures, and in the following article I will go into a few of these with you, and if this one gets a good response I will continue to post more about other herbs and their uses for those of you interested in herbalism and herbal magic. first off, let me start with my 2 top favorite medicinal herbs Ginger and garlic. Ginger: it is a natural anti-inflammatory, which means if you have a zit, or a bee sting, or any kind of inflammation of the skin this is a great way to be rid of it. Get some powdered ginger and make a paste with a couple drops of water then spread it over the inflamed area. apply liberally. let it sit for 12 hours. Then, wash off before going to bed. by morning you should notice a dramatic decrease in the inflammation. If it is still there continue the process until the inflammation is gone. Garlic: this is a natural anti-biotic. Got an infected wound? make a paste of garlic powder and water and apply to the wound. keep on for 12 hours then wash off. repeat the process until the infection is gone. Got an abscessed tooth? take garlic pills 4x a day and you will notice the swelling recede. Now...for the magical uses: Ginger: Eating ginger before performing spells will lend them power as ginger has a warming effect this works especially well for love spells. Whole ginger roots are planted and grown to attract money, or use the powdered root is sprinkled into pockets or onto money for a similar purpose. It is also used in success spells, or to insure the success of a magical operation. The Doubu Islanders will chew it and spit it at the "seat" of an illness to cure it. Garlic: wear it to guard against disease or the plague. Eat garlic to give yourself courage Place it in the home to guard against the intrusion of evil, and to keep out robbers and thieves. hang it over your door to repel envious people. place garlic under the pillows of children to protect them while they sleep and to ward off nightmares. carry a clove of garlic in your pocket on your wedding day to keep evil away on your big day. when eaten it is said to be a lust inducer.

Contributor's Note
I am a practitioner of herbalism and thought these little tidbits of info may be useful for some. Instead of spending big bucks on the medicines from the hospital, why not try the tried and true age old method of herbalism? and most cures you can find right in your cupboard! Btw, I can fix spelling errors, but the paragraphs are going to have to go on the back burner until quazia decides to make the tab button work for indentation.
