Product Description

This book is a guide to the sacred plants traditionally used by Native Americans and other indigenous people. It is an excellent tool for those seeking to connect more fully with the mysterious world of plants, animals, and Spirit.

For thousands of years Native cultures have used plants to heal physical and spiritual ailments. Highlighted here are 14 significant plants, with information on their properties, growing conditions, and medicinal applications, along with descriptions of Native American ceremonies and rituals in which these plants play a central role.

Alfred Savinelli has wildcrafted plants for the past twenty five years in the Americas (North, South, and Central) and is an active defender of plant rights and indigenous wisdom. He has primarily gathered plants for ceremonial and ritual use by Native People. His efforts have grown to include a network fo Native People who gather plants in a sacred and ecological manner. He is currently working with Native Scents, Inc., in Taos, New Mexico, which produces a wide range of aromatic herbal products and related items.

"O Waka-Tanka,
this smoke from sweetgrass will rise up to You,
and will spread throughout the universe;
its fragrance will be known by the winged,
the four-leggeds, and the two-leggeds,
for we understand that we are all relatives."
