Plant Companions & Their Quiet Magick 🌿

A little guide for your window sill altar or garden bed

🪴 Basil – Protection + prosperity

A kitchen staple that wards off negative energy and invites abundance. Place near doors or cook with it for a subtle blessing.

🌼 Chamomile – Peace + dreams

Known for calming energy. Brew into tea or keep dried under your pillow to soothe nightmares and attract sweet sleep.

🌵 Aloe Vera – Healing + resilience

A plant of regeneration. Break off a leaf to soothe burns or skin irritations. Spiritually, it’s said to absorb bad energy and promote renewal.

🌱 Mint – Clarity + communication

Sharp, energizing, and sacred to Mercury. Keeps the mind alert, words flowing, and boundaries strong. Great for spells involving speech, study, or travel.

🌸 Lavender – Tranquility + spiritual connection

A soft powerhouse. Place near your bed, burn it dried, or add it to baths to cleanse your aura and calm the mind.

🌿 Rosemary – Memory + protection

An all-around witch’s fave. Burn as incense to banish negativity. Add to oil or water for cleansing sprays. Tuck into your pocket before exams.

You don’t need a massive garden to work with plant magick. One pot in a sunny window, tended with intention, can be a whole ritual 🌞✨

No but like Mike must have begged Eddie multiple times for drugs to get him through high school. And Eddie, as much of a "bad guy" he is, knows not to sell to freshman. But Mike gives him his sad puppy dog look and Eddie gives in.

That night, Mike walks home from the woods with a snack bag of kitchen herbs

Herbs and spices

   I can’t tell you how much it improved my life when I started taking the shaker tops off my herbs and spices and just dumping them generously into the recipes. I just baked a pumpkin cheesecake recipe that called for 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and a ‘dash’ of nutmeg and clove. Jeez. While cloves need to be handled with respect and restraint, I dumped so much cinnamon and nutmeg in there. It smells amazing. Half a teaspoon. Bah!

Thanks, Tumblr, I learned something and I’m using it daily.

   In other news, the large pumpkin that I baked yesterday and cooled on the back porch overnight yielded about 26 cups. I packed ten freezer containers, made the dessert for today, and have some in the fridge. It turns out my border collie adores pumpkin as a snack. He was begging while I was working, and I told him he didn’t want any. When I offered him a taste he did, very much, want it. Hmm. Nutritious, I guess!
