When the Time is Right: Harvest Rituals — Recording
When the Time is Right is a class focusing on the magical timing proper to the collection of herbal materia, including planetary, zodiacal, and folk understandings of these times. We will speak of typical times of harvest as well as of how we may choose at which time to pick certain plant materia to fine-tune its magical virtues and potentiate our work.
We will also cover the basics of how to harvest plant materia with respect and care, including how and when to make offerings, taboos, and ritual practices for the harvest of certain plants.
On the agenda:
Why we might choose to follow specific timing when harvesting materia.
Harvesting by Moon sign; which parts and which plants are appropriate to harvest under which sign, and for which purpose.
Lunar Mansions appropriate for harvest.
Planetary days and hours and how we might choose which parts and which plants we may choose to collect on these days.
The four quarters of the day, and which is appropriate for what needs.
The basics of plant harvesting, taboos, recommendations, and suitable offerings.
Originally presented on May 31st 2025.
