A member of the Parsley family, Angelica is known in magickal herbalism as a powerful guardian. It is said to banish negativity and attract positive energy. Angelica grows in tall, blossoming stalks—but typically only the root portion is used in spellwork. Angelica is a staple of American folk magick or rootwork, but it probably acquired its holy reputation hundreds of years ago, in medieval Europe. Angelica was used to ward off disease, cure poisoning, and bring blessings upon the home. Culpeper’s 17th century herbal almanac recommends making a candy of the roots and stalks to be eaten when ill or fasting. Angelica is said to be one of the flavoring ingredients in the herbal liqueurs Benedictine and Chartreuse. Angelica’s magickal virtues are linked to its robust stature, pleasant aroma, and association with the Archangel Michael. Legend has it that the angel appeared in a dream to a monk, showing him the herb that could cure the plague in Europe. Traditionally, Angelica blooms on the feast of the Apparition of the Archangel Michael, May 8. Angelica is also known as Holy Ghost Root, Archangel Root or Dong Quai. Angelica root is available in dried form, and also as an essential oil. It grows wild in many places, but is not extremely heat tolerant. Use care when wildcrafting, as it resembles both Queen Anne’s Lace (a benign wild carrot) and Water Hemlock (a poisonous plant). Magickal uses of Angelica In Wicca and witchcraft, Angelica is regarded as a powerful protective ingredient. Angelica is incorporated into spells to ward off evil and bring good fortune. It is associated with personal courage, when that courage is based in moral uprightness. Angelica is said to bring blessings of emotional temperance and harmonious home life. Angelica archangelica is native to Europe, and is the species most often used in magick. There are other types of Angelica native to North America and Europe. Correspondences of Angelica Angelica corresponds to the Sun and the element of Fire. Angelica is a tall, fast-growing plant that does well in warmer climates. (Both attributions are probably related to Archangel Michael, who is the angel of Fire.) Whether harvesting or working with Angelica, it is traditional to use do so on the day and in the hour of the Sun. Spells and Formulas with Angelica Carry a piece of Angelica root to bring strength and ward off hexes. Put the root in a white mojo bag for protection, or a yellow one for courage. Angelica is an ingredient in a Hoodoo working known as the Fiery Wall of Protection. Add the dried root to incenses, floor washes, and baths to break jinxes and purify the home. Use Angelica to consecrate amulets of Archangel Michael and all Solar charms. Precautions Angelica is regarded as safe to use as an incense or ritual ingredient. People taking the herb medicinally should consult a doctor or herbalist, as it may have side effects. Use caution when handling essential oils, and never take them internally.

Aujourd’hui, je vous offre une prière à l’intention de votre Flamme Jumelle afin de l’aider dans son cheminement. Réciter quotidiennement, cette prière pourra vous aider à lâcher prise sur la Réunion entre vous et votre Jumeau (Jumelle). Afin d’en tirer le maximum, je vous invite à lire cette prière tous les jours durant 21 jours. Installez-vous dans un endroit confortable, allumez une bougie en signe d’acceptation de la Lumière dans votre vie. Prenez une dizaine de respirations afin de bien prendre contact avec votre corps. Inspirez la PAIX et expirez les tensions. Laissez vos épaules et tout votre corps bien se relâcher à chacune des respirations. Quand vous vous sentirez prêts, vous pourrez commencer à réciter la prière. Faites-le doucement en étant conscients de chaque mot. Vous pouvez la réciter plus d’une fois si vous en sentez le besoin. Si certains mots vous dérangent, adaptez la prière de façon à ce qu’elle vibre davantage pour vous. À la fin de chaque récitation, prenez encore une fois une grande inspiration et expiration. Si vous le désirez, vous pouvez tenir un journal de bord dans lequel vous prendrez le temps de noter tout ce qui vous vient suite à ce moment d’intériorisation ou les impressions qui vous viennent durant la journée. Naturellement, c’est à vous de voir quel genre de travail vous désirez faire avec cette prière. PRIÈRE À L'INTENTION DE MA FLAMME JUMELLE Je demande à la Source divine de guider les pas de mon Jumeau (Jumelle) pour un retour vers moi, si tel en est le choix de son Âme et du grand Plan divin. Je demande qu’il (elle) soit soutenu(e) dans son cheminement afin d’être conscient(e) des signes qui lui sont envoyés. Que l’éveil et l’ouverture du cœur lui soient insufflés à travers les différentes expériences de sa vie et qu’il (elle) ait la force d’aller au-delà de ses premières pensées, croyances et peurs. Je rends grâce à son Ange gardien, à ses Guides et à son Âme pour tout le travail qui est en cours afin qu’il (elle) retrouve son chemin vers sa Vérité profonde. Que l’Amour divin l’accompagne en tout et partout. Qu’il en soit ainsi!
Folk Names: Chagareltin, Fico, Mhawa Gender: Masculine Planet: Jupiter Element: Fire Powers: Divination, Fertility, Love, Protection Magical Uses and History: From Central Africa to the Far East, the fig tree is often referred to as the Tree of Life and Knowledge. The Greeks believed the fig was a gift from Demeter and sacred to Dionysus. For this reason, figs were revered as objects of fertility and love. The term sycophant, which dates back to ancient Greek fig trade, literally translates into "one who shows fig." It originally referred to one who informed on fig smugglers. Men and women wishing to conceive can carry fig wood carved with phallic images to boost fertility. Eating fresh figs will yield the same result. You can also use fresh figs to charm any man or woman. They will be spellbound by your presence if they consume the fruit. Fig leaves are sometimes used in divination. Write a question on a fig leaf. If the leaf dries slowly, the answer is yes. If it dries quickly, the answer is no. A slow drying leaf could also be good omen while a fast drying leaf could be the opposite. Figs grown in the home also offer protection and good luck to the inhabitants. Place a fig branch by your door before leaving for a tip to ensure you will return home safely and happily. If grown in the bedroom it will bring restful sleep. If grown in the kitchen it will ensure your family will never go hungry. Figs can be used in a number of spells including: Love Spells Fertility Magic Luck Spells Protection Magic Divination Medicinal Uses: Figs are often used for their mild laxative properties found in the saccharine juice of the fresh fruit. It is best for children and delicate persons. For stronger preparation, it can be prepared with rhubarb. The milky sap from a freshly-broken stalk is very acrid will remove warts. Preparation and Dosage: Figs can be taken internally in a syrup form or eaten fresh. Syrup of Figs should be used by children and delicate persons while Compound Syrup of Figs should be used for adults (see recipe). Externally use the milky sap of the stem on a wart.
