Jasmine Jasminum officinale
A Compendium of Plants

ESSENTIAL PROPERTIES

love, creativity, feminine energy

Jasmine derives from the Persian word for “fragrance,” and no wonder—this plant is renowned for her sensual, bewitching scent. In India, she is known as the Queen of the Night, for her delicate white blossoms bloom in the evening and invite a restful sense of peace.

MEDICINAL PROPERTIES

Jasmine-infused green tea can help improve your mood, and may also relieve symptoms of cirrhosis (liver disease). Jasmine can also bring relaxation, heighten sexual desire (she’s a renowned aphrodisiac), and has been studied for uses in treating cancer.

MAGICAL PROPERTIES

If you practice fertility Magic, jasmine will amplify your spellwork, particularly when you are working to birth new creative ideas, projects, wealth, and, of course, pregnancy. You can brew up some jasmine tea to drink and to pour in your bath—do both, and allow her to take you deep within your heart space, a place we are often too scared to dive into too deeply. But heart space energy may be one of the most powerful energies in the world—for what is more powerful than love? Heart space energy is the bridge between life and death.

Wearing jasmine will draw true love to you—those with pure hearts, who will be faithful to you and love you dearly. Placing jasmine in your bedroom is also a great way to lift those romantic energies and attract heartfelt conversations.

PLANT WISDOM

Jasmine will help you tap into the Divine Feminine. She will give you the confidence to stand in your own femininity, with all the beauty, vulnerability, intuition, and wisdom that entails. Plant her in your garden by your front door to attract good company and abundance to your home. If jasmine visits you in your dreams, an abundance of love is on its way to you.
