In the continuation of my article on mineral substitutions, it is also quite common that we do not have all the herbs, plants, and resins on hand to perform magical work. No worries, I offer you here a list of substitutions to help you!
However, there are "universal" substitutes, but be aware that their effects will be weaker. For example, Rose can replace any other flower, Frankincense all resins, and Rosemary all herbs.
And to complete your collection, you can check out our range of Magical Herbalism.
