Rosemary for Ritual and Remembrance by Rosemary Rae
$600.00
Inspired by my name, and after a year of much illness, sadness and loss, rosemary provided me with a ritual to manage stress. I researched this magical herb’s history and realized [she] has been used for centuries in rituals—for medicine and spells, and provided inspiration for scholars, queens, gardeners and poets. Six cards are provided as six in tarot represents balance and harmony. (Small inset photos on each of the six cards illustrate the card’s theme.)
Gathering sprigs of Rosemary and inhaling the scent is a quiet ritual that helps me regain inner peace and creative focus. This book is a celebration of [her] restorative powers!
