Book The Magic of Plants IV

· Vol. 4 · Water Element · The Stem and the Leaves

Like swimming from the silent, dark depths of the ocean to the surface—we ascend gently and feel the light invading the calm. The last volume begins with the winter solstice: the life-pregnant matrix nurturing the new being about to be born.

A cycle's end that is also a new beginning. The winter medicine cabinet, complete facial care and cosmetics, and a spagyric look at the human body—its four temperaments, its four elements—to close the circle and start anew. Because when all that is learned leads us to care for the self, the self cares for its environment and the nature that gives it life.
