A Songbird Shaman

A blind little Songbird Finding her flight feathers. Kokonara Qalli on Mateus. Just another regular qalli udgan. Mostly aesthetics, nature and witchy posts to help me build a muse for her. Follows will be from Plegethorn-space. Koko's carrd can be found at: https://kokonaraqalli.carrd.co/ (Carrd is very outdated)

Koko taps her nail onto her chakrams and wears jingle jewellery so that she just sounds like a one woman travelling gem seller, in be reality, she's focusing on the noise so she can dance.

To add to this. If she needs to increase her power flowing into the dance, she'll rip off her hood and eye coverings, throwing her head back and spread her arms wide. It's not often she needs to go all out, but when she does, it's one of the few times she can feel her Oronir and Qalli blood pulsing through her.

Herbalism 101: Basil

EP. 6

Fun fact

The word Basil comes from the Greek word “basileus” which means king. Because of this, many believe it led to the creation of the word “basilisk” due to the creature's strength.

Properties : Love, money

Uses in the kitchen

Basil is a pretty common kitchen ingredient and can be delicious in many different cuisines. It can be found cuisines anywhere from Italian to South Asian. It is often used in sauces and broths, but also makes a good garnish.

Uses in healing

Basil is amazing for stomach issues and can also be used as a mood booster. Basil has been used for digestive issues for centuries, including as a way to help stomach cramps in Chinese medicine. It is also said to help improve one's mood.

Uses in witchcraft

I often have fresh Basil on my windowsill because of how versatile it is. My favorite use, however, is to use Basil essential oil in cleaning in order to set intentions of love and money in my home or to banish bad energy. I will often put the essential oil into a spray bottle with some water and other oils, then I spray a small amount on what I am cleaning and wipe it in the direction correlating to my desire. (Towards me to attract, away from me to dispel)

Tips for growing at home

Basil is not too tricky to grow, but it can be sensitive to temperature. It's best to keep the plant somewhere on the warmer side, with plenty of sunlight and moist soil. The other big tip is to prune/trim the flowering parts or dead leaves often.

Recipe

Pesto for love and joy

1 cup fresh basil leaves

2 cups Parmesan cheese

1-2 tablespoons of pine nuts

3 cloves of garlic

Around 1/2 cup of olive oil

Salt to taste

Combine ingredients in a mixer while slowly adding in olive oil until you get a consistency you enjoy. The basil is good for love, garlic can amplify intentions, and pine nuts can represent comfort and sometimes fertility.
