Historically, red clover has been valued for its potential to treat a wide range of conditions, from respiratory issues to skin disorders. They contain several bioactive compounds, including isoflavones, which are plant-based estrogens (phytoestrogens) that can mimic effects of estrogen in the body.

Goldenrod, a member of Asteraceae, blooms late summer through early fall. Their botanical name, Solidago, is Latin for solidus: "to make whole." They’ve been used to heal wounds, treat inflammation of the mouth & throat, for tuberculosis, diabetes & arthritis.

Mugwort, or A. vulgaris, was referred to as the "mother of herbs" during the Middle Ages. The dried leaves can be smoked or brewed to a tea that encourages lucid dreaming. This oneirogenic effect is likely due to the thujone contained in mugwort.

The Papal Conclave is meeting to select the next pope and I'd like to point out that the a bunch of people wearing black and red robes and chanting after they eat the body of Christ is okay if you're Catholic but somehow I'm a "SATANIC LESBIAN CANNIBAL WITCH" if I do it.
