St John's wort tincture

30 minutesEasy

St John''s wort flowers around midsummer, and if you crush a yellow petal between your fingers they turn red. People called it St John''s blood. It is hypericin, and it is why the plant has been used against heaviness of spirit for over two thousand years.

It works slowly. Four to six weeks pass before anything shifts, and it asks you to remember it every day. This is not a plant that saves you on an acute night. It is one you walk beside across a season.
