I'm new to learning about the native plants around me here in Southern Cal., especially up at my cabin where we have the 4 seasons. My son is a plant scientist and is teaching me. I've located lots of miner's lettuce growing right now and I believe I have a stinging nettle in my water run off brook. Do you collect and work with it in the kitchen with gloves on?? My neighbor said it makes you itch so I haven't gotten near it yet. Any advice?

I'm a Cancer w/Cancer rising, Libra moon. Before, I would have chosen the Queen of Pentacles, maybe because I don't have any earth signs in my entire chart. But I do have a lot of air. Just from knowing you from afar, I could see you with either swords because of your academic background and current writing project or wands because of your creative, energetic, spicy side! So I'm not surprised by your chart, it fits you! I think it would depend on your questions, which one you might be drawn to use. Love the tarot.Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071261854957363637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382541836368981865.post-86097590281180068392018-05-06T13:23:37.981-06:002018-05-06T13:23:37.981-06:00Thank you, Rhonda...invisible threads of connectio...Thank you, Rhonda...invisible threads of connection.Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071261854957363637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382541836368981865.post-56047219432595106692018-05-06T13:19:42.625-06:002018-05-06T13:19:42.625-06:00Hi Michelle, yes, blessed be the bees and thee!

I've only made Oregon Grape root tincture once -- when we had to dig some out for a project, and it's still in my little pharmacy -- but didn't think of using the roots for their color. Of course! I'll remember that for sure because they like it here. Have you used the berries? I keep meaning to try a recipe with them.

Which of the Queens would you use as a signifier if you had to? I am an Aquarius with a Gemini Moon, but because of Leo on the Ascendant, I usually pick the Queen of Wands.

I am going to look up Queen of Swords.<br />I have a whole yard of Miner's Lettuce and am enjoying a salad a day before they fade. I am also going to make a tincture of root of Oregon Grape--for Fall use. Have you tried it? Just like Golden Seal. the more stressed out the plant--from drought--the stronger the yellow color of the root and the more powerful the tincture.
