Witchy Herbs: Rosemary - Rosemarinus officinalis
This herb is also called dew of the sea, herb of remembrance, or elf leaf. It has masculine energies, connects with the element of fire, and is ruled by the Sun. It honors the fae, Hebe, Aphrodite, and the Virgin Mary. Zodiac sign; Leo.
You can use this herb to create a tonic that you can topically apply to your skin. You can also use this to rinse your hair to experience less itching with your scalp and have shinier dark hair. If you have a headache, you can have some rosemary tea to bring you relief.
In spells, this herb is for healing, health, wisdom, making your memory better, protection, love, lust, exorcism, purification, and sleep.
When burned, emits powerful cleansing and purifying vibrations, and so is smoldered to rid a place of negativity, especially prior to performing magic. It is one of the oldest incenses.
Rosemary can remove jealousy. If you feel jealous about something, light a dried sprig of rosemary and as you watch the flames consume the sprig, visualize how your jealous energy is being consumed and transformed into positive energy by the flames.
When placed beneath the pillow rosemary ensures a good sleep and drives away nightmares. Laid under the bed it protects the sleeper from all harm.
Rosemary is also hung on the porch and doorposts to keep thieves from the house and is carried to remain healthy.
Placed in the bath it purifies.
Rosemary has long been used in love and lust incenses and other mixtures.
Healing poppets are stuffed with rosemary to take advantage of its curative vibrations. Rosemary infusion is used to wash the hands before healing work, and the leaves mixed with juniper berries are burned in sickrooms to promote healing.
Rub the oil into yellow candles and light on a Thursday to improve your study habits and grades.
If you wish to receive knowledge or the answer to a question, burn rosemary on charcoal and smell its smoke.
Rosemary is also grown to attract the Fae.
Use rosemary if you need to substitute frankincense or any herb that you are missing.

Purifying Water – For Ourselves, and Every Other Creature
When it comes to water, most people’s immediate concern is whether it is clean. A valid point for sure. But what do we actually mean by “clean”? Is it safe to drink? Or suitable for washing our bodies, clothes, and dishes? Or do we mean that it’s not contaminated in a way that would kill our plants if we poured it on them? Because there is a world of difference between each of these levels of “clean”.
Tumblr media

Discussing Dirty Water to Define Clean Water
To talk about the purity of water, we have to identify the four types of contamination: Firstly, there are solid particles suspended in the water, which could be anything from pieces of rocks to organic matter, and even plastics. The good news here is that once the water evaporates all of these particles stay behind. Also, should they get back into the water, they can be removed easily with a filter.
The next type of pollutant is organic, such as phosphorous or nitrogen. These are the result of biological contamination from urine, manure, or decomposing bodies. While it may be not as simple to get them out as using a filter, these substances are oxidizable, meaning that they can be removed by bacteria, provided there is sufficient oxygen in the water.
A more complicated form of contaminants is microbial pollution, meaning various forms of microbial life living on organic pollution in the water. While many of these microbes are harmless to humans, some of them are pathogenic, and can cause serious or even deadly diseases to our bodies. There are a number of approaches in dealing with these contaminants, which mostly result in either killing them off, or outcompeting them.
Finally, there is the chemical form of water pollution. This involves other harmful substances in our water, such as residues from medicines, pesticides, hydrocarbons, heavy metals, etc. These contaminants are usually the result of human activity, such as industry or intensive agriculture. Because of their toxicity and low biodegradability they pose the greatest challenge to purifying water on any scale.
How Clean Do We Want Our Water To Be?
What a silly question, you might say. Of course we want our water to be 100% clean, all the time! But is that really so? For example, do you really need the water to be potable, only to flush your toilet with it? Or think about a swimming pool: It’s clean enough to swim in, but I’m sure you wouldn’t want to put it into your mouth, let alone swallow it! Also, if you ask your plants, I’m sure they’re quite happy about a bit of nitrogen and phosphorous in their water, which you in turn would not want in your drinking bottle. So I guess it’s safe to say that instead of “pure” or “clean” we should strive for “suitable” instead.
Tumblr media

Deadly Sterile, or Living Clean?
Because microbial life is so complex that most of us are not even familiar with the numerous species that are too small anyway to see with the naked eye, we tend to be overwhelmed by the mere question of which ones are good, and which are bad for us. It may therefor be the simplest approach to kill everything, as we do in chlorinating our swimming pools. But is it really the best way of getting the water clean? A bit of chlorine (another chemical poison) will not harm us, but it could be detrimental to a plant to be watered with pool water. Also, just imagine the carnage among our natural skin flora that results from a brief dip in the pool!
Tumblr media
image source
On the other hand, imagine taking the same dip in a pristine mountain lake. The water may seem just as “clean and pure”, though it will most likely be teeming with life. Ideally, that kind of water will be good for drinking, swimming, washing, and of course watering your plants with, and may be good for fish and other living organisms to thrive in. Couldn’t we get our water to that kind of purity? Surprisingly, it’s not that difficult.
Tumblr media
image source
Using Life to Purify our Water
To separate the solids from our water, all we need to do is imitate a filter, providing sediments of various sizes (rocks, gravel, sand, charcoal) for the water to pass through. In order to neutralize organic contaminants, microbial life is needed, along with the oxygen they rely on. Having a rich diversity of microbes is also essential for outcompeting the harmful ones. But how can we make sure that we do indeed have a vast and vibrant ecosystem on the microbial level, which we can’t even see? We simply need some other creatures that live in symbiosis with these microbes, and are big enough to see. An example are bivalves, such as mussels or oysters.
Tumblr media
image source
Not only do these molluscs capture particles suspended in the water, and contribute to the cycling of nutrients, but they are also symbiotic with various types of microbes, just like any other creature, including ourselves. What’s even nicer about them, is that their fragile nature is a great indicator for the water’s purity. In other words, they will be killed by much less contamination than us. This means we can be sure that if the water they live in doesn’t kill them, it will be certainly safe for us too.
Tumblr media
image source
Phyto-purification and Natural Swimming Pools
At this point I’d like to bring up some of the many practical applications to the theory of purifying our water. The simplest and most obvious one is a well designed reed-bed behind a house, to filter the household waste water. In a way, this is not much different than the gray-water planters Earthships typically utilize indoors. But can that be brought to a higher level, still? Most certainly so! Imagine various layers of filtering sediments, separate pools for aerobic and anaerobic decomposition, topped up with a mussel farm!
Tumblr media
image source
The other popular application which may have popped into your mind are natural swimming pools. These are basins of living water, offering not only a place for humans to swim, but also a habitat for a plethora of aquatic plants and animals. In a way, it’s a simulation of the naturally pristine mountain lake I mentioned before. There are lots of great sources on how to implement one, but they all follow the basic premise of filtering the water, oxygenating it, and maintaining a vibrant ecosystem of plants and animals, to ensure an even greater diversity of microbes. All together they will provide you with water that is good and healthy, not only for you, but for all other forms of life in your ecosystem.

Lae'zel's character and her entire situation at the beginning of the game becomes so much more funny when you find out she's 22. It makes so much sense. Imagine you're 22 and you're exposed to this dangerous toxin or chemical or something - but not to worry, you learnt that this can be easily fixed, you just need to dial 911 real quick. Common knowledge. Everyone knows that. You learnt that in kindergarten, it's up there with fire alarm drills.
But the people you're stuck with have no concept of modern medicine and when you say "let's go to the hospital" they will say shit like "i think they kill people at the hospital" and "we should ask this swamp lady" or "this guy over there told me about this homoeopathic healer kind of guy but he got abducted" or "this random bard wants to help" and "I'm not going to dial 911 because I don't want the government to know my home address" or "maybe we should consider a deal with Satan". And then a bunch of them KEEP consuming the chemical because it makes them "stronger". One guy might explode for unrelated reasons. You have a few days before this situation is getting critical and suddenly they're solving crime and doing general charity for the community.
And FOR SOME REASON you still try to help these idiots and you STILL want to help them get the cure even though they all keep insisting the "doctors" at the "hospital" might try to "kill them" and they don't have insurance. And you keep telling them to just. go. to. the. hospital. before the time runs out and you all die very horribly of a very treatable condition.
And also you're 22 in a foreign country and you're responsible for shepherding this gaggle of idiots who are all ranging anywhere from 24 to 240 years old.

Benefits of Juice Cleansing At [Your Company Name], we understand the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Juice cleansing has gained significant popularity in recent years as a way to detoxify the body and improve overall well-being. In this article, we will explore the various benefits of juice cleansing and how it can positively impact your health. Improved Digestion Juice cleansing involves consuming fresh, nutrient-rich juices made from fruits and vegetables. These juices are packed with vitamins, minerals, and enzymes that can support healthy digestion. By giving your digestive system a break from solid foods, juice cleansing allows it to focus on absorbing essential nutrients from the juices, leading to improved digestion and nutrient absorption. Enhanced Detoxification One of the key benefits of juice cleansing is its ability to promote detoxification. The juices used in a cleanse are often made from ingredients known for their detoxifying properties, such as lemon, ginger, and leafy greens. These ingredients can help flush out toxins from the body, supporting the liver and kidneys in their natural detoxification processes. Increase in Energy Levels Many individuals who have undergone juice cleansing report experiencing an increase in energy levels. This can be attributed to the high concentration of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants present in the juices. By providing your body with a nutrient-dense source of fuel, juice cleansing can help combat fatigue and promote a sense of vitality. Weight Loss If your goal is to shed some extra pounds, juice cleansing can be an effective tool. By replacing regular meals with low-calorie, nutrient-dense juices, you can create a calorie deficit while still nourishing your body. However, it's important to note that juice cleansing should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional, as prolonged or extreme cleanses can have negative effects on your metabolism and overall well-being. Improved Skin Health Another benefit of juice cleansing is its potential to improve skin health. The high levels of antioxidants found in fruit and vegetable juices can help combat oxidative stress, a major contributor to skin aging. Additionally, the hydration provided by the juices can promote a healthy complexion and a natural glow. Boosted Immune System By flooding your body with a wide array of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, juice cleansing can give your immune system a much-needed boost. These nutrients play a crucial role in supporting immune function and can help protect against common illnesses and infections. [caption id="attachment_77232" align="aligncenter" width="734"] benefits of juice cleansing[/caption] Juice cleansing offers a range of benefits, from improved digestion and detoxification to increased energy levels and weight loss. Incorporating juice cleansing into your wellness routine can have a positive impact on your overall health and well-being. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before embarking on any cleanse, and enjoy the benefits of this rejuvenating practice. Juice Cleansing FAQs 1. What is juice cleansing? Juice cleansing is a detoxification practice where individuals consume only fresh fruit and vegetable juices for a certain period, usually a few days, to cleanse their bodies. 2. What are the benefits of juice cleansing? There are several benefits of juice cleansing: Detoxifies the body by eliminating toxins Boosts the immune system Increases energy levels Improves digestion Promotes weight loss Improves skin health Enhances mental clarity Reduces inflammation Supports overall well-being 3. How long should a juice cleanse last? The duration of a juice cleanse can vary depending on individual goals and preferences. It can range from a 1-day cleanse to a 7-day cleanse. It's important to listen to your body and consult a healthcare professional before attempting a longer cleanse. 4. Can I eat solid food during a juice cleanse? It is generally recommended to consume only fresh juices during a juice cleanse to allow your digestive system to rest. However, some individuals may include light, plant-based meals or snacks if needed. 5. Can I exercise while on a juice cleanse? Moderate exercise like walking or yoga is usually fine during a juice cleanse. However, intense workouts may not be recommended as your body might not have enough calories and energy from juices alone. 6. Are there any side effects of juice cleansing? Some people may experience temporary side effects such as headaches, fatigue, or dizziness during a juice cleanse. These symptoms are often a sign that your body is detoxifying, and they usually subside after a few days. 7. Can I do a juice cleanse if I have certain medical conditions? If you have any underlying medical conditions, it is crucial to consult with your healthcare provider before starting a juice cleanse. They can provide guidance based on your specific health needs. 8. Can I juice cleanse while pregnant or breastfeeding? It is not recommended to do a juice cleanse while pregnant or breastfeeding, as your body requires additional nutrients during these periods. It's best to focus on a balanced diet that meets your nutritional needs. 9. Can I lose weight with a juice cleanse? A juice cleanse can lead to temporary weight loss, primarily due to the reduction in calorie intake. However, it's important to note that the weight loss is often water weight and may be regained once normal eating habits resume. 10. How should I break a juice cleanse? After completing a juice cleanse, it's recommended to ease back into solid foods gradually. Start with light, plant-based meals and gradually reintroduce other foods over a few days to allow your digestive system to adjust.
