Why This Pairing Works

Ritual Guide
Brew the herb as a tea (if safe) or place it in a bowl of moon water beside the card. Meditate near a water source, letting the herb's essence blend with the card's watery wisdom.
⚠️ Safety: Generally safe and edible. Avoid large amounts if on blood thinners or with kidney disease.
