## Day 4: Green Witchery — Pick One Herb. Just One. It is May. The plants are showing off. They are LITERALLY trying to get your attention. Here's a thing the witchcraft internet does badly: it makes herbalism feel like you need to memorize all of Culpeper's Complete Herbal before you're allowed to cut a sprig of mint. You don't. You really, really don't. **Pick one herb. Learn it like a person, not a Wikipedia page.** Five starter allies that won't poison your cat: - **Rosemary** — memory, protection, the herb that does NOT shut up - **Mint** — abundance, communication, mild chaos energy - **Lavender** — sleep, calm, the introvert's bouncer - **Thyme** — courage, clarity, *time itself* (yes the pun is in the etymology, look it up) - **Chamomile** — money magic, gentleness, the grandma of the herb world Get one. A potted one from the grocery store counts. Sit with it for a week. Crush a leaf between your fingers and *actually smell it*. Notice when you reach for it. Notice when you don't. That's the spell. That's the whole spell. #green witch #herbalism #witchcraft #witchblr #plant magic
