Ritual Precepts with the Leaf

*"Kó s'ewé, kó s'òrìṣà"*: Without leaf there is no Orixá. Every plant is sacred and requires respect with the axé:

  • ✓ Hot ritual bath of strength: always from the neck down, protecting the ori.
  • ✓ Ask permission from Ossaim and the guardians of the forest before handling or boiling.
  • ✓ Always discard on clean earth, a garden, or a pot. Never in common trash.
The axé of the leaf responds to the intention and the reverence of the heart of the one who prepares it.

Historical Root & Tradition

Artemisia in Brazilian Ancestral Wisdom

Artemisia takes the name of Artemis, the Greek goddess of the moon and the hunt. It traveled through European magic as the herb of dreams and of women, and in Brazil it joined the herbs of Iansã due to the connection with the wind and with intuition.

In the traditional garrafadas of Central Brazil, the raizeiro masters recognized in the knotted shape of the root the living metaphor of firmeza: the capacity to tie knots in adversity and remain standing even in arid lands.

Do not confuse artemisia with losna. Both are of the Artemisia genus, but losna is Artemisia absinthium and serves to cleanse. Common artemisia serves to open.
