HYPERICUM, GOLDEN GIFT FROM MOTHER EARTH

This crazy weather sometimes gives us wonderful things. Just a month ago I was able to find real gold in my path. Hypericum, also called St. John's Wort ( Hypericum Perforatum), the golden gift from mother earth. At the top of a pass, while the fog was dissipating.... There he waited, among many others, still in bloom. Since ancient times hypericum has been used to ward off evil spirits and even in exorcisms. Some called him Androsemo (human blood) because of the reddish liquid that oozes from the flowers when rubbed between the fingers. His virtues and properties are so incredible that Paracelsus said "His virtue is above description, it is not possible to find in any country a more sovereign remedy to treat wounds". Antihemorrhagic, relieves bruises and pains, helps heal wounds, antidepressant, calms night terrors, used as a treatment for diarrhea and gastritis, anti-inflammatory .... and much more magic. I was lucky enough to find many, and I was able to collect their seed, and thus try to keep the wheel turning....
