Episode description

Myrtle, originating from North Africa and Iran but now widespread throughout the Mediterranean, is a small evergreen bush cherished for its glossy bluey-green leaves, white blossoms and black berries. With roots tracing back to the Garden of Eden, its leaves have been prized since ancient times for their use in perfumery and food, yielding essential oil when steam-distilled. Associated with Aphrodite and symbolising youthfulness and beauty, myrtle played a significant role in ancient rituals, serving as a sacred herb in spring festivals and adorning brides on their wedding day. Beyond its ceremonial significance, Myrtle holds practical uses, from promoting fertility to warding off threats to relationships. With branches that remain fresh for weeks after being cut, Myrtle is linked to themes of immortality and the eternal cycle of life, with its leaves symbolising constancy amid life's changes. Myrtle also aids in soulful practices, facilitating communication with departed souls and exploration of past lives through meditation. Offering clarity in times of confusion, Myrtle lifts veils of illusion, inspiring hope and guiding one towards new relationships and opportunities. With its associations with youthfulness and the cycles of life, Myrtle is particularly potent during the New Moon, creating a tranquil space for introspection and renewal.
