Lady’s Mantle — remembering womb’s wisdom

Lady’s Mantle — Alchemilla mollis / vulgaris
No wonder her name evokes a female cloak — a soft embrace and a gentle protection.
This herb has quietly served women for centuries, nurturing the womb and holding us through transitions, without fuss or fanfare.

I gather this herb every year, as countless women did before me — guided by the rhythm of the land.
It’s a quiet act of remembering the wisdom woven into our wombs, because deep down, our bodies still remember what the plants have always known.

Since ancient times, Lady’s Mantle has been honoured in European folk medicine.
In medieval alchemical texts, its dew, which looks like spilled diamonds, was believed to hold magical purity — used in the quest for the Philosopher’s Stone.
Some claimed that this dew, gathered at dawn, could restore maidenhood or even grant eternal youth.
In Nordic and Celtic lore, she was sacred to goddesses like Freyja and Brigid, linked to fertility, healing, and the divine feminine.
