Libra Zodiac Herbs!

As much as I love being a Pisces, the herbs of Venus, representing the zodiac signs of Libra, an air sign (September 23 - October 22) and Taurus, an earth sign (April 20 - May 20), include some of my favorite herbs!

Happy Birthday Libras!

During the pandemic, I made 12 collages featuring Taurus herbs for my oldest daughter. My biggest challenge was deciding which herbs to highlight, since there are an abundance of herbs ruled by Venus. Some signs have a more limited selection.

Other Libra herbs, herbs of Venus, include African violet, apple, apricot, aster, avocado, cardamon, cherry, coltsfoot, columbine, daffodil, daisy, foxglove, goldenrod, iris, lilac, and violet. There are many  more. 

Nicholas Culpeper (Oct. 18-1616 to January 10, 1654), a physician, botanist, herbalist and astrologer, is credited with identifying the planets and their zodiac sign affiliations. Each zodiac sign is ruled by a planet and  the herbs under that planet’s influence are  assigned to the corresponding zodiac  signs. 

Other than Earth, the planets discovered before the 1700 were given the names of Roman deities. Uranus, Neptune and Pluto came after the 1700s and were assigned to planet who previously shared plants with other signs. 

Signs and their planets are
  • Aries, ruled by Mars
  • Taurus, ruled by Venus
  • Gemini, ruled by  Mercury
  • Cancer, ruled by the  moon
  • Leo, ruled by the sun
  • Virgo, ruled by Mercury
  • Libra, ruled by Venus
  • Scorpio, ruled by Pluto. Ancient ruler was  Mars
  • Sagittarius, ruled by Jupiter
  • Capricorn, ruled by Saturn
  • Aquarius, ruled by Uranus. Ancient ruler was Saturn
  • Pisces, ruled by Neptune. Ancient ruler was Jupiter

I’ll be including  more on the Zodiac herbs in my blog posts  and my e-book, Enhancing Your Life with Herbs, named after a course I’ve delivered numerous times over the last decade. I’ll be finalizing the illustrations and releasing  it by the end of October. Watch for it!
