Dill Weed, 30 grams

Anethum graveolens

Dill weed (the aerial parts of the plant) represents the home in magick and is an herb concerned with the brain.  It has a sharp, high, quite stimulating aroma and is associated with Mercury – not surprisingly, as it is occasionally called Semen of Hermes.  It is also known as soyah, dilly, and aneton.

Uses for the Body.  Use the weed of dill in teas to promote fertility.  The scent discourages hiccups, and the leaves can be made into a soothing wash for chapped skin.

Uses for the Mind.  Dill is calming and sharpens the intellectual faculties.  Dill vinegar applied at the temples is an effective herbal study aid.

Uses for the Spirit.  When feeling overwhelmed, call on dill to separate and clarify worries so that they are manageable.
