Somehow, somewhere my world has changed from the "norm". Yada, yada, blah, blah, and here I am with a wonderful box full of dried herbs that I bought from an eBay seller. It came with all kinds of goodies, and smells like a dream! However, the more I study and researched my new-found (well, not so new anymore) interest, I realize that I'm not so sure what to do with them! Most cannot be internally consumed, I understand that part.
But that's where my question stems from. I'm not exactly into witchcraft, although I find some of it fascinating, but I like the idea of candles, incense, meditation, affirmations, etc., being used to promote the positive influences that we want/need in our lives.
Based on that, I have this wonderful box of about 50ish very commonly used herbs in the witchery world. But how exactly are they used? I mean, if you can't do the obvious burn a sage bundle to cleanse the house/room/etc - what do you do with them otherwise?
Are they put into a fireproof dish/bowl/cauldrin/etc., and burned from a dried state while an affirmation is being recited? Or are they just sprinkled over, say for example, a handwritten affirmation and then buried in the backyard? Or are they simply put inside a common/everyday potpourri bowl and left there to sit and fragrence the room all by themselves?
Would love any input about their usage - I have a dreamy smelling box full of herbs and don't know what I can or can't do with them!
