The Soothing Draught of the Evening Hearth
The Quieting of the Humors under a Waning Moon

When the vessel’s inner winds are stirred by the sharp humors of worry and haste, the body cries out for a gentle sedative of the nervous fires. Chamomile, the earth’s own gentle anodyne, sheathes the jagged edges of the spirit with its golden rays, while lavender’s cool blue spirits bind the trembling vapors into a placid dew. This infusion, taken as the sun retreats, coaxes the choleric humors into a temperate balance, allowing the mind to drift like a leaf on a still pond. The addition of wild honey and a slice of lemon further aligns the sour and sweet essences, restoring the palate of the soul.
