I usually grow a herb each year, this year it's rosemary which I knew nothing of I was just like....this is the plant I will grow. And I've looked it up as it has grown like we are both growing together.
These are such great tips, Bente. I find that just spending time tending to my plants and learning more about them, paying attention to their behavior and temperament, and being in tune with that type of energy really helps me cultivate those plant-person ally relationships.
I like meditating and inviting a plant spirit to reach out to me before I start this process. I have found plant spirits that already have a connection to me or my family line reach out to me, and it leads to a much deeper and individualized experience. 😊
I truly enjoy growing what I am able to. Particularly for herbs with connections to Norse/Swedish practices that might not grow natively here in California. But not always. I find growing plants helps with some of these steps, seeing how it grows, learning what it needs, giving it your constant energy through tending and care. I love meeting new plants in the wild, but raising them is wonderful as well. This was very helpful, thank you!
Oh yes definitely!!! 🥰 I‘m pretty sad that I don’t really have the possibility to do that where I live. I don’t have a garden, my flat is too dark and on my balcony everything gets pests constantly (and it’s also very dark)… 😞
Perfect timing! I just brought some new plants spirts home with me and I’m looking forward to connecting with them via spell workings ❤️ Much love from Canada!
Thanks for this interesting video. 💚 I would like to add something about taking plant parts. It may be quite obvious, but people who live in Urban areas and only have access there to public parks or such places, please keep in mind that it's generally forbidden (in most places, maybe not everywhere) to take parts of plants from public parks etc. Especially parts which are still growing on the plant, as well as the roots. I guess it's okay to take plant parts which have fallen to the ground. If you are unsure, better check with the parks in your region.
The area I live in has a lot of natural White Yarrow and Dyers Woad, which I'm hoping to establish connections with. They're not very common plants nowadays but their histories and the lore surrounding them fascinate me so I'm going to attempt to reach out.
I love these ideas. I have a tree that I used to touch every day on my way into work. (I go in a different door now, and I miss him.). I realize that I don’t even know what type of tree he is. And I knew nothing at the time about offerings. I think I owe this tree an apology. Speaking of offerings, what do you offer a new plant? Also, you mentioned if you don’t give an offering, one might be taken. Does this apply to other magick? I keep burning my finger during my spells. It’s just a tiny ouch, but I’m not being careless. It almost feels like something that is happening to me as opposed to my own lack of candle safety or anything. I would love to know what you think about this. (PS- I just started witchcraft intentionally though I can see some of the practices being part of my life in the past also.)
I hope to start learning more about plants, their language and even properties since I’m living in a new area. I wish I was better at growing my own herbs, unfortunately not quite ready for that new responsibility 😅
Amazing video as always ❤. I would love to know your take on using spirits/ energy/ thought forms to carry out spell work, and what that would look like.
vielen ❤️lichen Dank für so ein tolles Video! Habe deine Videos gerade gefunden und bin begeistert! du hast eine so wundervolle Ausstrahlung! ganz liebe Grüsse aus Zürich 🤗
I feel spirits as well, but when I medititate I can see images forming in the darkness. They kinda shift and appear. Usually when I'm connecting with an energy or a spirit. So when I want to receive messages or connect to the energy of a plant, I do that.
I know im late but im REALLY excited about this video. I don't have access to books at all since Im not open about my practice so I would rely on Google - How the plant is used mundanely today, ways it can be used medicinally, how they were used historically in the folklore and gathered correspondences that way Im so burnt out. I was like do people have to do all this just to get started?! It wasn’t all that rewarding for all that i put into it So thank you bentel for this ❤
This inspired me to view my orchid from a different perspective! I love that its so intuitive for you, and not as reliant on an herbal encyclopedia!

Currently potting some pothos propagations & watering my house plants while this is playing in the background. 😊🖤

That’s the way to do it.

I have been trying to connect more with my fern, and this was very helpful. Thank you
Oh I love fern! ❤️
Found a black cherry tree today.. I want to make some lipstick with it so I want to get to know her. Thanks for the video ❤

This is one of the best channels that have always existed. Thank you so much, your vibes are so calming ❤❤❤

Thank you for this video! This is exactly what I needed to hear! I love the connection I have with my herb garden.

Excellent, I was just thinking I needed to get a few plants for my home.
I feel spirits as well, but when I medititate I can see images forming in the darkness. They kinda shift and appear. Usually when I'm connecting with an energy or a spirit. So when I want to receive messages or connect to the energy of a plant, I do that.
I have had a few instances where I had connection to a various plant, but it wasn't on purpose and involved strange events.
I would love to hear your stories on your personal experiences! Please share.
I've been feeling called to connecting with frankincense resin. Can I go about it the same way as mentioned in this video?
❤🙏🙏🙏🌿
Can you please ask Odin from a subscriber why he has such a hook nose❤
