  7. High in tannins: they bind iron and blunt oral medications, so leave two hours either side of anything you take on a schedule. Skip it in pregnancy or if you're anemic. And be certain of your identification — alder is not buckthorn, and buckthorn is a violent purgative. If you're eighty percent sure about the tree, buy the bark instead. #Herbalism #Herbalist #Alder #Feàrna #FolkMedicine #Foraging #Botany #Nature #Gardening #Druid #Folklore #Gàidhlig

  8. Grey alder — Alnus incana, feàrna. For the throat that's been screaming.
    Dried inner bark only, aged several months, never fresh — fresh bark will make you vomit, which is exactly why the old preparation insists on the drying. One teaspoon to a cup, simmered ten minutes, strained, cooled to warm. Gargle and spit. Good as an external wash on weepy skin and foot soaks.

  9. Deep in the dog days now. Past Lughnasadh, into the long ripening.

    The first grain is cut. The tomatoes have gone from a promise to a problem, and every gardener I know is handing them off in grocery sacks to anyone slow enough to get cornered.

    Tha an talamh a' cuimhneachadh — the earth remembers. It remembers this exact tilt of light. Lughnasadh #WheelOfTheYear #Gardening #Harvest #Tomatoes #Gaidhlig #ScottishGaelic #Druid #Pagan #Seasonal #Phenology #SlowLiving #Solidarity

  12. Breac à linne, slat à coille ‘s fiadh à fìreach - mèirle às nach do ghabh Gàidheal riamh nàire.

    A trout from the river pool, a staff from the wood and a deer from the moor – thefts of which no Gael was ever ashamed.
