Poppy Stem & Root
CAD $10.00
In Ukrainian Folklore Poppy (Mak) is a flower of dreams, fertility, beauty and youth. It symbolizes infinity of the universe but at the same time it suggests sleep and the oblivion. Believed to be a good charm against witches, it’s alleged to be protective against the evil eye and possess a magic power to be helpful against all sorts of evil forces and evil influences.
Long associated with sleep and death, perhaps because the narcotic made from the opium poppy can easily bring about both. Ancient Greeks and Romans presented them as offerings to the dead. In the Victorian Language of Flowers, poppy symbolized eternal sleep, oblivion, & imagination. In Tuscany, witches apparently put Poppy Stem & Root (& leaf) onto hot coals and then read the size and shapes of the flames to get their answers. Other people burnt Poppy Seeds and divined their answers from the sounds they made as they burned
California Poppy is best known for its sedative properties and has been used for enhancing sleep and aiding in reducing insomnia, easing minor pain, and anxiety. California Poppy Herb – Eschscholzia California – Cut & Sifted
