I have been interested in herbalism for quite some time now, and though I don't have many means of getting herbs other than growing them myself. I think now is a heck of a good time to study up on them. I have limited knowledge on herbs though I know a few such as sage is good for protection and things like that. But it would be great to have a few pointers at where to start or maybe some literature or links to good sites because all I can do right now is jump into it. When I get my book of shadows going I am going to dedicate a section to herbalism, but doing some research beforehand can't hurt either. So if anyone has any basics, or anything that they think they could help me, it would be greatly appreciated. Blessed be.
