Angelica Root Profile

ANGELIC ROOT (Angelica Archangelica)
History and Character
Angelica is a large graceful plant that can grow to a height of 2 meter/6 ft. The whole plant exudes the energetic depth and reach, which mirrors angelica's healing power. Its roots go deep into the earth and strong tall stem-" reaching to the heavens" - supports a large white/green umbrella -like flower. The flower can be seen as protective, as well as open an receptive.

Angelica root oil has been traditionally used to protect against "the Plague", for nervous hysteria, as a general tonic. for " fortifying the spirit", and for female disorders. It strengthens the liver and steadies the heart. Angelica opens us to healing, reconnects us to our inner innocence and is said to "connect us to the angels". Angelica is innocent and strong at the same time and is very effective where fears or compulsive behaviour has been triggered by a traumatic incident when very young.
