A Magickal Herball Compleat.pdf - Magicka School

Astrological Considerations
Sage – An herb of Jupiter and associated Goddesses and Gods such as
Juno (sister and wife of Jupiter) and Zeus.
Garlic – Herb of Mars and linked to this warlike God.
Rosemary – Herb of the Sun and associated with Aries.
Thyme – Corresponds to Venus.
Parsley – Corresponds to both Mercury and Mars.
Dandelion – Herb of Jupiter (although for obvious reasons often associated with
the Sun) and corresponds to Leo.
Barley – A Saturnine herb, corresponding also to Virgo.
Chamomile – Chamomile’s bright flowers help link it to the Sun.
Mint – An herb of Venus.
Wheat – Also an herb of Venus.
Fennel – Associated with Mercury.
Willow – Linked to the Moon and Cancer.
Nettle – An excellent Martian herb.
It will be noted that parsley can be seen to correspond to both Mercury and Mars
and that dandelion can be seen to have Jupiterian and solar qualities. Where this is
the case with herbs, they are seen to have a blend of qualities that can add a subtle
mix to magickal workings.
