Chamomile

Chamomile is a masculine herb that is ruled by the Sun and linked to the element of water due to its calming energy. It is incredibly sweet smelling and has a slight apple scent to it as well.

Chamomile is a great herb to use for relaxation, peace, and harmony. Since it is linked to the element of water it is a great herb to use for magickal spells involving spirituality, scrying, divination, and tapping into the inner emotional psyche.

Chamomile is also a wonderful herb to use for toothaches. You can steep the flower in hot water with cheesecloth and then apply it to the painful tooth to alleviate pain. It is also very effective when used as a sleep aid. Since it has peaceful water energy in it, chamomile has the ability to soothe anxieties and calm the mind for a restful night’s sleep.

Chamomile is also beneficial when used to remedy irregular menstrual flow. It naturally regulates the cycle and helps relieve painful menstrual cramps. Taking a chamomile bath and drinking chamomile tea during a severely painful period can bring tremendous relief.
