RE: St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum) herbal monograph

woow ! you wrote this sooo beautifully and used great wording!
i'm so grateful for these kinds of posts. also that you included the "mythological" background of how people used the herb because of influence from demons and the like.

and that is so aptly formulated:

To dream of any herb is to know that it is your herbal ally. It's telling you to get to know it in detail so that you can heal yourself and others.

at the moment i often dream about certain plants and can recognize them in detail in my dreams :D
do you know anything about the dream symbolism of certain plants?

Thank you. I'm happy my style is appreciated!

I'm not sure about the symbolism of many plants but they all surely have one.

Generally, I believe that if you dream about a plant, that plant can help you or someone through you in some way. There again I've dreamed about a plant in my garden and found the next day that it was sick.

We are all connected in ways that we may not ever be aware of.

There again I've dreamed about a plant in my garden and found the next day that it was sick.

What do you mean with that?

i came up with the idea that the essence of the plant communicates with me through the dreams. it also does this in "real life".
supposedly every plant has its own spirit, which it manifests in the material world.

I meant that I've dreamed about plants that I hadn't noticed struggling on my garden. A sceptic would say that I noticed them unconsciously in my day to day activities and the memory came through in a dream but I believe they were telling me. We spend a lot of time together afterall.

If you want to go deeper into thinking about such things, you could try the evolutionary herbalism. They have a beautiful take on plants and people.
