Our organic St. John’s wort oil is processed with fresh flowers and leaves and yields the most Beautiful bright red color from the constituent hypericin. You can see in the first video the burgundy color that excretes from the flowers being squeezed.

Infused oils used topically can provide us with the same benefits as taking herbs internally. Transdermal application is in fact a very old way of using herbs. Traditionally herbs where used in animal fat as processing nut oils didn’t really exist.

Externally the uses are broad but it’s great for nerve pain, wounds, bruises, cuts, scrapes, muscle pain, sprains, cold sores, and strains.

Can i tell you a secret? Do you want to know how to make high quality oils. Micheal Moore used alcohol for dried herbs but I also use alcohol for fresh plants. I put a tablespoon of high grain alcohol (or 2 depending on quantity) over fresh herbs in a jar. Shake. let that sit on the fresh herbs for 24 hrs then pour your oil over. put the sjw oil in the sun (this is a must for sjw) for a week (protected from the elements). After 4 weeks, heat up the oil (never over 100 degrees), for a few hours and then strain. And bam you have a shelf stable, super high potency oil.

I really enjoyed listening to the recent podcast from @mythicmedicine all about St. John’s wort. I recommend listening if you have time.

And go check out @kamimcbride class on how to make potent herbal infused oils made from fresh herbs. She has way more in depth explanation on how to make potent infused oils and has been doing so for over 20 years.

St. John’s wort an ode to the sun, usually ready to be harvested or admired around the summer solstice. It can bring light inside of us, and shine light on the dark within us.

You can shop our st John’s wort on our website 🌼
