Term: herb magic

DEFINITIONS

herb magic: Herb magic is the utilization of the energies contained within herbs to create positive transformations. This practice doesn�t solely rely on plant power to create these changes, though. The magician sends energy into the herbs from her or his own body. The two energies (human and plant) are mixed, given purpose, and sent forth to their magical goal.
