The botanical grimoire
A herbarium for understanding plants and their symbolism
From botanical markers to traditional correspondences, each entry helps you observe, understand and explore the plant world with care.
Before you browse
How should you read a botanical entry?
Three levels of reading help distinguish the plant’s characteristics, the traditions surrounding it and the essential precautions.
Identify the plant
Start with its name, family, appearance and the plant part concerned. Reliable identification always comes before use.
Understand its correspondences
Then explore the symbolism, planets, elements and ritual uses passed down through different traditions.
Keep safety in mind
Symbolic does not mean edible or harmless. Check toxicity, exposure methods and the precautions specific to each species.
