Sct. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum - Perikon)
Sct. John's wort brings light into the darkness. It is a sunshine plant with its bright yellow flowers that bloom in midsummer. One of the most medicinal herbs in our native European landscape, Sct. John's wort is a must-have plant in most herbal pharmacies. This plant has antibacterial, antioxidant and antiviral properties. Because of its anti-inflammatory properties, it is applied to the skin to help heal wounds and burns. We find them growing wild in the meadows and harvest them in midsummer when they are full of sunshine.
Where Calendula is the gentle feminine sunshine, Sct. John's Wort is the masculine counterpart. This is pure sunshine, worked with as a plant against depression, this is a powerful plant to work with in the deep winter months.
Our wild harvested Sct. John's Wort oil is made with olive oil. Both olive and Sct. John's Wort love sunshine and make an amazing pairing. Olive oil is one of the most stable and long lasting oils to make healing herbal oils on.
About our herbal oils
These are not essential oils. These are oil masarations, oil extracts of plants - a traditional way of preserving and getting all the goodness and medicinal properties out of the plants.
The whole process from (possibly sowing, tending), harvesting and processing the plants have been done with love and the intention to become medicine. Some of our oils are made with wild harvested plants and some are made with plants we have grown in our garden (thus including the part of sowing and tending).
We do not use mixers to process our plants, everything is done by hand. Even the knife we use to cut the fresh plants is a special copper knife, made to give something back to the plants when they are harvested. (Plants need copper to transform carbon dioxide to oxygen)
Like all herbal medicines, it needs to be worked with persistently over time to really connect deeply with the spirit, but also to learn all the benefits from the medicinal properties of the plants. A single use can introduce you to the medicine, but it takes more to support deep healing, whether it be physical, emotional, energetic, or transpersonal.
