Litha is a good time to gather herbs, whether from the wild or from your own magickal herb garden. Herbs gathered at Litha, when the sun is at its peak, are powerful for use in magickal workings. Dried herbs from your garden can also be used to make sachets and dreams pillows. Remember when gathering herbs from the wild to never take them all. Also remember to leave something behind. A gift for a gift.
Herbs nurtured and grown in our own magickal gardens have our own personal power that we put into them. Stock your magickal cabinet with herbs from your own garden. Remember to look around your yard. Many common weeds have magickal properties also. I have decided to try to forge a relationship with Creeping Charlie since he is in so much abundance in my yard. A plant that resilient must have strong magick. I’m hoping he will share those secrets with me.
Use your herbs in your magickal spells. Magic can be performed on all phases of the moon. New moon magick for new beginnings, for example, looking for a job. Waxing moon magic is for bringing stuff to you and the waning moon is for banishing or getting rid of something.
Solstice Blessings to everyone!
