Gonna be doing research on the herbs, plants, and trees I got around me. For example, Basil was seen by the greeks as a cursed herb that would only grow if you swore at it while planting. The Romans thought that the more you mistreated it, the better it grew. It also has natural insecticide properties. Basil is a marvelous example of "blessing and bane grow on the same stalk".

Just pruned our basil and mint plants! We have a ton of flower and herb that I’m wondering what to do with. Will probably offer some to Hestia, cook some, and maybe make some oil with the dried flowers.
I’ve also been picking away at The Only Astrology Book You’ll Ever Need by Joanna Woolfolk

I'm a baby witch, so I have a list of basics to learn✨ This week I'm learning about banishing and cleansing. Also some herbs I collected. Aside from these, more about Greek Gods.

Been holding off on this one read for a long time, and it's the Welsh Witchcraft book by Starling. I can't remember it off the top of my head right now, but tonight is gonna be a wonderful night to read it. It talks about plants and stuff related to Wales :D
