Hello community,

I was wondering if many of you do foraging here. Me and my wife love to go out in the forest surrounding our house and find medicinal herbs or herbs that can be used in rituals / magick. My personal favorite is the pine tree. It stands for rebirth and protection, specifically the resin I love to collect and use it as incense for my rituals.

Let me know how you guys like to connect to nature for your practices!

Sometimes when I’m able to do so! But definitely not as much as I would love to! I haven’t tried to collect resin before, but I would often use pine needles from the trees at my mom’s house when I lived there! When we would visit my boyfriend’s family’s house, we would collect plantain and raspberry leaves, and sometimes leaves from the black walnut trees. I am also guilty of taking some of my mom’s flowers that she would grow… oops.. but she could at least keep some fox glove plants alive for me.

I do the same it saves money & the herbs/roots are pure & fresh plus if you forage based off astrological times with a sacred knife you can harvest it best for each type of ritual, offering, ceremony, use.

Buying dried herbs is the least useful option cause you don't know what the energies of the person harvesting them are or if there treated with pesticides.

Some people even resell herbs previously used in rituals so it's not the best option
