✨🌽 Corn Silk Talisman 🌽✨

I braided this from fresh corn silk and tied it off with the husks as a simple fertility charm.

Corn has deep roots in fertility and harvest, and the silk felt too full of energy to waste.

Now to put it on my altar, to hold space for new beginnings and the dreams I’m growing.

My groupmate: ...can I touch your hair? 👁👄👁

Me: um, yes?..

My groupmate: *touches it* wow it's like corn

Me: *confused* like what?..

My groupmate: like corn, you know, it has some hair in it, the corn silk

Now I am a purple corn silk I guess 💅🏻

Corn silk is high in potassium, therefore, has a diuretic effect on the urinary system. In other words, it promotes the production of urine which means it makes you pee, a lot.

Corn silk will also help prevent kidney stones and is useful with other urinary problems like nephritis (inflammation of the kidneys), cystitis (urinary tract infection), and prostatitis (swelling and inflammation of the prostate gland).

Corn silk is also known to reduce water retention in the body and may be beneficial in treating high blood pressure and gouty arthritis (uric acid builds up in the blood and causes inflammation in the joints).
