Imbolc 103: The Nine Herbs Charm
Manage episode 354410348 series 2837056
Welcome to the Horn and Cauldron podcast…
For our 103 series, we are exploring a specific area of lore or practice related to each Sabbat. In this episode, we are discussing Odin’s Nine Herbs Charm. In the Lacnunga, Woden (AKA Odin) uses the Nine Herbs charm to banish poison and heal. Translating ancient texts is difficult, so we aren’t entirely sure which herbs they are, but we think they are mugwort, plantain, bittercress, betony, chamomile, nettle, apple, chervil, and fennel.
In this episode, we discuss the Lacnunga, Odin’s role with herbs, and the specific herbs mentioned in the Nine Herbs Charm, and recommend some reading material to further your practice.
