Herbal Remedies, Notes, Ect.


This is just a list of links and excerpts from random stuff I've found online involving herbalism, medicine, and philtering. Basically, I'm just compiling a bunch of random stuff for future thread ideas.

Processes and Terminology:

Tincture
Distillation
Essential oil
Extracting oils for perfume
how to make almond oil
How to make eucalyptus oil
How to make olive oil

Found at: http://simplehomemade.net/5-simple-home-remedies-that-really-work/

Homemade Chest Rub
1-2 drops Eucalyptus essential oil OOCCould do a thread where I actually extract the oils
1-2 tsp. carrier oil of choice

Eucalyptus (and most other essential oils) are too strong to use directly on the body at full strength, so they need to be used together with a carrier oil. Carrier oils can include olive oil, jojoba oil, almond oil and many others.

My oldest daughter often complains of a stuffed up nose when she lies down at night (even when she isn’t sick). Though we’re experimenting with the Neti Pot for a long term solution, my nightly 30-second remedy looks like this:

Pour approximately 1 tsp of almond oil into the palm of my hand.
Add 1 drop of eucalyptus oil into the almond oil.
Using my fingers, I mix the two oils together then rub them on my hands.
Rub my oiled hands on her chest, neck and a bit just under her nose (then rub any extra into my skin or on my own neck/chest, because it won’t hurt and it smells lovely).

---

Homemade cough syrup. This recipe can be as simple as chopping 1 cup of onions, adding 1/2 cup of honey, and simmering the mixture for 20 minutes. Strain the onions out, and keep in the fridge, taking a spoonful as needed. This recipe is safe for children as well and our family found it particularly helpful for soothing coughs and clearing stuffed noses.

---
Ear ache remedy

How to make Garlic oil
the remedy

Thread ideas:

First thread, make the honey/onion cough syrup. Next thread, make the chestrub thing (do any required threads for acquiring the items. In another thread, get onion extract, combine it with the eucalyptus extract, and create a simple balm that you can wipe under your nose to breath in. Or create a candle that you can breath in the scents.

Eucalyptus will be replaced with Caplium seeds. Create Caplium oil using a method similar to Eucalyptus oil.

Later on, add Fireweed to the mixture for it's pain reliever substance.

Add White Willow to enhance the healing properties.


Cattail Links:

http://holeinthefence.net/tag/id-cattail-parts/
http://www.fcps.edu/islandcreekes/ecology/common_cattail.htm
http://www.backwoodshome.com/articles/duffyk43.html



Preparing the Caplium Seeds

Step 1: Break the seeds.
Step 2: Cook at low temperature for a day, or leave in a jar in the sun for two weeks.
Step 3: Grind further, then put in press, or strain through cloth.

Make Onion Extract:

(the fumes from onions help clear nose)

Step 1: Acquire onions.
Step 2: Chop Onions
Step 3: Strain the juice out.

Make the Balm:
http://www.rootsimple.com/2011/07/making-salves-lip-balms-etc-close-of-the-calendula-series/

Ingredients: Onion Extract, Caplium Oil, Almond Oil (good for the skin), and wax

Step 1: Mix the Onion, Caplium, and Almond together
Step 2: Use a double boiling technique (boil water, with another pot on top to be heated by the steam) to heat the oils, stirring frequently.
Step 3: Add the wax to the mixture. Stir frequently until correct consistency is reached
Step 4: Remove and pour into container while still hot.
Step 5: Let cool and seal.

Auristics


I want L'orlei's use of auristics to be somewhat unique. Most people use color, and that is it, but I want to try to stay away from that. Now, there will of course be color involved, but I don't want it to be the only thing I use. So here I am going to keep track of all of my auristics notes, the aura's L'orlei has already seen, and so forth, that way I can keep up my consistency. I will also try to kind of make a system.

The Basics:

  • All auras that L'orlei views will initially be smoky and gray. This is the unfocused auras, with all it's colors mingling together. The smoke does not move in specific patterns, does not have a particular scent, doesn't sound like anything, or feel or taste like anything in particular. Basically, it is like saying that the object does indeed have an aura, but she hasn't focused enough to learn anything about it.
  • Physical Properties: Initially this is determined by color. Something made of wood or plants might be one color, while a mammal might be another, and so forth. The next step to this would be the pattern of the smoke. Maybe something swirling chaotically is a sentient being, representing the mass amount of thoughts that go on in a person's head, whileas a bug might have something only slowly swirling, and a plant might barely move at all. Something lifeless, like a rock, might not move period. Also, particular hardness and stuff like that might have different patterns. Perhaps delving deeper, she would notice that what once appeared to be random swirling, is actually a specific pattern. Or it might smell or feel different.


Aura's L'orlei has encountered:

Clam:
Gray wispy outer aura.
Semi-Solid White 2nd Layer, the clamshell. Things made from similar material (calcium carbonate) such as bones or other shells will have similar auras
3rd Layer bluish (the clam) but covered in thick black liquidy substance (dead)


Fauxsil Leaf:
Gray wispy outer aura.
Slow moving green smoky second layer, identifying it as plant material.
3rd layer, scent of lavender, identifying its relaxing properties.
