The weather really gave me a treat today, because I was planning on making a herb essence of the rosemary which is still flowering in front of my house for today. And the weather was so good! It is crispy cold, but I was sitting in a bit of sunlight and it was lovely!
I put the water in the middle of the plant on the ground and just sat with it. It was funny because the neighbours on the other side of the street saw me sitting on the ground almost in the rosemary, but it felt right.
I picked the rosemary intuitively, but thinking about it later on I actually made an essence I could use at the moment, so that is great as well.
To align it with the smokenights during this period (not really practicing it but integrating some light touches) I am writing this report next to my burner with some dried rosemary on it. Sending you some smell 🙂
I will take the essence with me on my holiday travellings.
