Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) is an exceptional healing plant that has been used as a medicine for thousands of years in almost every corner of the world. In modern times it has become a scientifically validated herb in a number of different medical fields.
This documentary film provides an introduction to the plant itself, as well as a journey through its rich history of use throughout many different traditions. We also assess the wealth of scientific evidence that supports all of the historical uses from many different cultures. We also explore the shamanic practices invoking the spirit of Mugwort as a protector/guardian, and its role as a psychoactive herb associated with altered states of consciousness and dream healing.
Finally I reflect on my own experiences using Mugwort, and how it can serve as a portal through which we can begin reconnecting with the sacredness of the natural world all around us - something integral to humanity and mental health in general, that we have lost in this modern era.
