Common Sage? Not so common;)

Sage is an incredible herb; used most commonly in seasoning stuffings, sausages, and roasting fowl. What is little known about the aromatic common sage is how very versatile a healing herb it is as well! Sage is also an astringent (shrinks mucous membranes), an antispasmodic (suppresses muscle spasms), an anthelmintic (fights off certain parasites), and is a vulnerary herb (used to treat wounds).

It can be used in mouthwashes to treat mouth sores, gargles to cleanse mucous in the throat, teas for relaxation and to relieve spasms, taken in capsules for parasitic cleanses, and in salve to treat wounds.

Metaphysically speaking, sage has been used to clear sacred space and to cleanse auras.

Pretty incredible herb, eh? Next up = Cayenne!
