Aether - Respiratory Support Tonic
Sometimes, we just need a breath of fresh air. But today’s overcrowded cities and inflamed immune systems often mean that many of us need help to do that. The Aether Tonic was developed to bring a soothing, calming effect to our respiratory systems, which have been enflamed from stress and overwork.Herbal Ingredients:***Echinacea - Echinacea has been considered a potent protective spirit by North American Indigenous peoples for thousands of years. It was used in sweat lodge purifications and to ease pain. More recently, Echinacea has been prominently used worldwide to fight infection and combat the common colds/flu and upper respiratory infections. It primarily works on the liver and blood, stimulating the immune system, like its planetary ruler, Jupiter. It reminds you that the universe is only as “good” or “bad” as you perceive it. Step back and shift your perspective. ***Mullein - Mullein carries a beautiful Yellow healing energy infused with its astrological sign, the Sun. It is a multi-faceted healer with many traditional applications - it has been used as an expectorant, an anti-inflammatory, an astringent l, and an antispasmodic. Many Native American tribes also used it as a spiritual healer for its grounding energy. Mullein has strong magical roots and, in Ancient Greece, was smoked at a crossroads to commune with Hecate and her horde. It was also the herb that Ulysses carried to meet Circe, according to Anglo-Saxon lore. ***Marshmallow - Marshmallow is considered a “water herb” associated with love and beauty. It is highly mucilagenic, a polysaccharide with a thick, slippery consistency. It has a soothing, protecting, and comforting effect on our internal systems - soothing irritated membranes inflamed by irritants and environmental allergens. Its energy is beloved by helpful spirits, and keeping a dish on your altar with marshmallow in water has been a way many have called in helpful house spirits.***Elecampane - Elecampane, or “Elfwort,” speaks to its enchanting energies. It is known as a “spirit sustainer” and has traditionally been used as a stimulating expectorant for chronic lung complaints, mainly when infection occurs. It can be helpful for a stubborn cough due to its astringent and expectorant qualities. It can produce a powerful cough that clears the lungs, although it may make it appear that the cough is getting worse at first. This is just Elecampane’s medicine. It is a warming and drying bitter herb that helps digestion. As an herb of Mercury, it has a shape-shifting nature that has also been utilized to enhance psychic powers.***Schisandra - Schisandra berries are used in Traditional Chinese Medicine and are viewed as unique in that they encompass all five flavors - sweet, salty, bitter, sour, and pungent - directly signaling its all-encompassing, healing nature. As a perfectly balanced yin-yang pant, it can enter all 12 energy channels or meridians of the human body. It is anti-inflammatory, balances adrenal fatigue, and supports the nervous system. Its energy encourages us to ground to facilitate the development of a higher consciousness. ***Yarrow - Yarrow’s history of being an aid to divination is well-known. It is primarily associated with use in the I Ching. Yarrow embodies harmony and Libra’s energy of balance. Its energies reignite our equilibrium and balance when we feel emotionally drained or too sensitive to today’s world and bring grounding to our psychic powers and divinatory skills. Yarrow is an all-around healer and has been used topically to staunch wounds and internally as a soothing balm for the respiratory and digestive systems. ***Plantain - Plantain grows so abundantly its magnificent power is oft overlooked. Native Americans have long utilized plantain externally to heal wounds, cure fever, and remove toxins from stings and bites, including snake bites. Internally, it has been traditionally used for its astringent, drying qualities - helpful to dry up wetness in the lungs and digestive system while also soothing these tracts with its mucilagenic qualities. Plantain works to help your soul, just as well as it works to soothe your skin, and is the Great Wound healer.
