Artemisa: A Powerful Plant with Rich History
Medicinal and Magical Uses
Many consider Artemisa (Artemisia vulgaris) a weed, but it is a powerful plant with a long history of medicinal and magical use worldwide.
Historical Use in Asia
In China, Japan, and Korea, Artemisa has been used in moxibustion for thousands of years. In this practice, Artemisa leaves are rolled into sticks or cones, lit, and waved over the body to create gentle heat. It is believed to strengthen the blood, stimulate Qi (energy) flow, and maintain good health. It treats various ailments, from muscle pain and arthritis to headaches, fatigue, digestive issues, menstrual pain, infertility, and hot flashes.
Native American Traditions
In North America, indigenous peoples used Artemisa tea to treat digestive problems, menstrual irregularities, colds, and fever. They also used Artemisa for smudging to purify a person, space, aura, or energy.
Dream Herb and Psychic Enhancer
Known as a "dream herb" in various traditions, Artemisa is used to induce lucid dreams, aid astral projection, and enhance psychic powers. This is why it is a key ingredient in our Inspired Dreams infusion.
Modern Uses
Today, Artemisa is renowned as an "aromatic bitter" for supporting digestion and improving nutrition by stimulating bile production. It relieves gas, cramps, increases appetite, cleanses intestines, and acts as a potent antiparasitic herb.
Menstrual Health
Artemisa is still used worldwide to support healthy menstruation: it stimulates circulation, warms the uterus, induces menstruation, and eliminates stagnant blood, reducing stiffness, cramps, and pain.
Pregnancy Warning
Due to its potent effects, Artemisa is not recommended during pregnancy.
