Speedwell
Veronica officinalis Common names Gypsy weedPhysic RootSpeedwell Speedwell (botanical name, Veronica officinalis) is an undersized perennial herb that grows up to a maximum height of 6 inches to one foot (15 cm to 30 cm) and has partially-climbing stems that are decorated with oval flowers having serrated edges and a small petiole. When comparatively larger and more attractive plants are close by, the petite flowers of speedwell are generally overlooked by most. This herb derives its name from an ancient meaning of the term speed - ‘thrive'. 4oz-$3.25 , 8oz-$5.75 , 1lb-$10.00 Parts used Whole plant. Uses For several centuries, people of different cultures have been using speedwell in the form of a panacea for almost all health conditions. However, in contemporary times, people do not use speedwell as much as a medication. As mentioned earlier, an herbal tea prepared with the dehydrated flowering plant works as a diuretic as well as an expectorant and helps to eliminate phlegm. Constituents

Oberon (Otter) Zell The following is an Article published three or four years ago in Green Egg. "Ding-dong!" goes the doorbell. Is it Avon calling? With the stage set and all the actors in place, the show is ready to begin. "Hunh? Right," I say. Now clearly, here we are talking about the original creation of the human species: male and female. The next chapter talks about how Yahweh, an individual member of the Pantheon, goes about assembling his own special little botanical and zoological Garden in Eden, and making his own little man to inhabit it: (Gen 2:7) Yahweh God fashioned a man of dust from the soil. Then Yahweh decides to make a woman to go with the man. Now this next part is where it starts to get interesting. (Gen. 3:6) The woman saw that the tree was good to eat and pleasing to the eye, and that it was desirable for the knowledge that it could give. And so the sign of the Fall becomes modesty. And now we come to the crux of the Fall. Get that? So that's it for the Fall.
Classical element
Segment of the macrocosm showing the elemental spheres of terra (earth), aqua (water), aer (air), and ignis (fire). Robert Fludd. 1617. Many philosophies and worldviews have a set of classical elements believed to reflect the simplest essential parts and principles of which anything can consist or upon which the constitution and fundamental powers of everything are based. Most frequently, classical elements refer to ancient concepts which some science writers compare to the modern states of matter, relating earth to the solid state, water to liquid, air to gaseous and fire to plasma.[1][2] Historians trace the evolution of modern theory pertaining to the chemical elements, as well as chemical compounds and mixtures of chemical substances to medieval, and Greek models. Ancient[edit] Cosmic elements in Babylonia[edit] Greece[edit] Plato characterizes the elements as being pre-Socratic in origin from a list created by the Sicilian philosopher Empedocles (ca. 450 BC).

Tarot
Visconti-Sforza tarot deck. The Devil card is a 20th-century replacement for the card missing from the original 15th-century deck. François Rabelais gives tarau as the name of one of the games played by Gargantua in his Gargantua and Pantagruel;[2] this is likely the earliest attestation of the French form of the name.[citation needed] Tarot cards are used throughout much of Europe to play card games. In English-speaking countries, where these games are largely unplayed, tarot cards are now used primarily for divinatory purposes.[1] Occultists call the trump cards and the Fool "the major arcana" while the ten pip and four court cards in each suit are called minor arcana. The cards are traced by some occult writers to ancient Egypt or the Kabbalah but there is no documented evidence of such origins or of the usage of tarot for divination before the 18th century.[1] Etymology[edit] History[edit] Early decks[edit] Le Bateleur: The Juggler from the Jean Dodal Tarot of Marseilles.
