Wise Woman Salve
Wise Woman Salve
A Skin Saving Salve to Tend & Mend Inside & Out
In the Celtic tradition is the presence of the Wise Woman, or bean feasa — one who is profoundly connected to the natural world around her and who knows how to listen to the wisdom of the Earth and the wisdom of Herself. She is a woman who has reclaimed her stories as well as her voice with which to share them. She is the vessel through which the Land speaks.
This salve, a blend of nettle and plantain, was inspired by this presence, by lineage, by the deep wisdom of the Earth in potent simplicity. Nettle is the center of much lore and many fables — from Aesop to Hans Christian Anderson to the Song of the Seven Herbs. Plantain was considered by the ancient Saxons to be one of the nine sacred herbs. Let this salve call forth this ancient wisdom into your own body’s embodiment of the Earth.
