How to use moon magick herbs – 5 ways & herbs properties

Moon magick herbs are one of the important witchery points. During witchcraft, we ask for help from four elements, planets and stars. Herbs personify the power of the mother earth. And her presence is very significant in the rituals of moon magic because the Moon is a constant companion of the earth.

Moon magic is about rituals conducted in a particular lunar phase. So, on the dark moon, we purify and protect ourselves from the negative, on the new moon we carry out manifesting intentions ritual. The Waxing Moon contributes to the development and growth of projects, relationships, forces, new habits. The Full Moon is suitable for charging, and the Waning phase is good for getting rid of all unnecessary things.

Of course, in moon witchcraft, as in any other, many different magick items are used – candles, crystals, essential oils, cards, sacred geometry symbols. But today let’s talk about herbs – their magical properties and how to use them.

A great way to use the power of lunar herbs is to… eat them. After all, this is the closest contact that we can enter into with something.

We can see what is very far from us, hear what is closer. Feel the smell of what is next to us, touch what lies at arm’s length. But we can only taste what we have on the tongue, that is, inside our body.

So, you do not have to be a kitchen witch or a professional chef to add moon herbs to your food. You can purchase them as seasonings or grow them in pots on your windowsill, dry and grind. Of course, the second option is better, because by doing something with our own hands, we invest our energy in it.

But you can start with purchased herbs 🙂 The main thing, adding them to food, is to concentrate on this process. Ask lunar herbs for help. Check with the moon phase. Try to make the mood of the lunar phase, the properties of herbs and your intentions coincide. Here is a summary of the properties of some herbs.

To attract and preserve love, use vanilla, cinnamon, and coriander. If your goal is money, ginger and dill will help you achieve it. Orange, lemongrass, marjoram will help find the answer to an important question. Pepper and basil add courage, garlic and mint protect from negative. Sage will help resolve conflicts and establish peace. And nutmeg will bring good luck.
