Magical uses: healing, love, protection, prosperity

History

The genus name Mentha comes from Minthe, a nymph in Greek mythology beloved by Hades, who was transformed into the mint plant by his jealous wife Persephone. Pliny describes peppermint as a common head wreath, table decoration, and flavoring agent for wines and sauces at Greek and Roman feasts. There is evidence of peppermint cultivation by the Egyptians, and it is mentioned in 13th-century Icelandic pharmacopoeias, although it did not come into general medical use until the 18th-century in England. Mint was a popular medieval flavoring for whiskey in Scotland

https://www.flyingthehedge.com/2018/01/herbarium-orange-blossom.html

https://davyandtracy.com/plant-wisdom/citrus-magick-the-healing-spiritual-properties-of-citrus-fruits/

Magical uses: Love, divination, luck, and money.

medical uses: Orange peels are rich in fiber, vitamins, and disease-fighting polyphenols. They also contain limonene, a chemical that may protect against skin cancer. Vitamin C is also an important part of the equation when battling iron-deficiency anemia because it helps your body absorb the iron you consume in your diet.

Healing properties: Spirituality, success, healing, protection, power, love, prosperity, and speeds up spells

Medical properties: Helps with diabetes and Infections (I couldn’t find much evidence. So research more on its medical properties if you want to consume it)

When I say medical properties I do NOT mean to replace any medicine or avoid any serious issues because you have cinnamon. Herbs are here to help with doctors' approval. Also if you take medications please ask your doctor first if you are using any herbs because they may react badly to them.

Magical Properties of Rose

https://witchipedia.com/book-of-shadows/herblore/rose/

https://wiccanow.com/magickal-properties-of-rose/

https://spells8.com/lessons/rose-magical-properties/

While roses are usually used in love spells, that is not it’s only magical property.

Roses can be used for:

Protection and warding off negative/evil energy.

Spells involving depression/anxiety healing

Confidence spells

Beauty spells.

The color of the rose can also influence their magical properties. Also a point I have to mention is that the part of the rose has its own properties.
