Welcome to the Apothecary.

Here you will find all manner of healing materia available to you - from a plantain salve for a cut or a herbal vinegar for a cold, an elixir for grief, or an astrological essence for navigating dreamscapes. These medicines are intended to serve on a truly holistic level, weaving together the body, mind, heart and soul as one, and always looking for the root of the problem at hand, which often will span more than just one of these levels. Each creation is inspired by Western Folk Herbalism, and many are guided by lore of planet, star and sky, incorporating astrological timing methods and magics.

Importantly, these offerings are created with the notion of ‘right relationship’ at it’s core. The vast majority of the ingredients used are either homegrown, wildcrafted, organic/non GMO, or sourced as locally as possible. This is to maintain a bio-regional focus, and to reduce the impact on the earth such as through carbon emissions and unsustainable manufacturing processes that are rife within the health and plant industry.

Being in right relationship also refers to the interactions with the medicines themselves, especially during the dreaming and creating process. Every medicine I have made is an answer to a call - like a magnet pulling me down a path that has just the right herb ally waiting for a new co-created medicine making journey. If a plant doesn’t grow at the time I feel I need it, I seek a different plant. Working with what is easefully available for the natural cycles and the green world has to generously offer us in right timing, rests at the heart of this work.

And so, seeker of medicines and magics, may you find what your whole-self is looking for amongst my shelves and potions and jars, in an effort to bring you deeper into right relationship with your self, and perhaps most importantly, with the green world.
