What Astrology can do for you as an Herbalist
As an herbalist, you love working with plants on many levels. You might be a wildcrafter, or a gardener. You might just love making herbal medicine.

What is “Energetic Architecture?”
I use the term โenergetic architectureโ a lot in my work- for itโs a phrase that to me truly encompasses the concept in alchemy of correspondences, or the philosophy that everything in life is interconnected, related, and the above and below are ultimately One. But what does that mean? And how do we use that philosophy practically? Energetic Architecture is a universal pattern of energetics that weaves together science, religion, and medical traditions from around the world. Essentially, it consists of three primary layers, or patterns, of energetics: the 7 planets, the 5 elements, and the 3 philosophical principles (Alchemy) or doshas (Ayurveda). When one looks at traditional models of the world, there is usually always some form of a 3 fold pattern, a 5 fold pattern, and a 7 fold pattern.

The art of herbal formulation isโฆ well just that- an art!! The #1 mistake too many herbalists make when it comes to formulating is that they think about what organ system they want to work with and BAM- throw every herb they can think of that does something to that system and hope that it will work.
Constitution Confusion
We see a lot of herbalists wanting to adopt a model of traditional constitutional systems into their approach to herbal medicine. This includes understanding the holistic properties of plants, how to work with the constitutions of people, and understand the energetics of plants.
