Materia Magicka
Herbal Grimoire & Wortcraft
Herbs, Roots, & Craft Lore for the English Wytch
Welcome to the Herbal Heart of The Hallowed Nook
This is not just a catalogue of herbs - this is the herbal heart of The Hallowed Nook, it's a living archive of plants, roots, resins and the ancient whispers they carry.
The Materia Magicka is a growing collection of plant lore, rooted in English folk tradition, personal craft, and lived experience. Within these pages, you'll meet the herbs, roots, and resins used by wytches, healers, and cunning folk across the British Isles.
Each entry carries more than just properties - it shares whispers of old ways: the protective knot of Nettle, the dreaming veil of Mugwort, the sorrow-soothing hush of Willow.
You'll find native wort's gathered from hedgerow and threshold, stories passed down in field and folklore, and the quiet, ongoing dialogue between plant and practitioner.
Let this be a space for learning, remembering, and deepening your relationship with the green ones. May you find resonance, reverence, and rooted magick here.
Begin with the Wortcraft Compendium for a quick-reference of properties and uses, or walk deeper into the Materia Magicka entries, where the path through leaf and root begins to speak.
Let these leaves be your lantern.
